Awesome. Too bad I can't reach into the video and toss a few bucks into his tip jar.

Deserves more votes than Jake Shimakawhatever! *RECOUNT!

it's child's play to edit a video to speed it up.

... unless they recorded him with no background noise, sped up him playing, then added a recording of background noise in later to throw us off, this is a REAL-ly nice performance.

wow. o_O !

^ Second that. The only "cheat" I can detect is that the wine glasses seem to be fixed to the table. That doesn't take anything away from his performance in my opinion.

that dude must have some mean ass callouses on those fingers!

^ I'm thinking he burnt off his finger tips.

Wow, amazing performance.

Man, screw reaching into the video, gimme a link and I'll paypal him a buck.

Oops! Upvoted Bert and Ernie before I saw this. This is more deserving. Hard to work 'soul rape' into this though...

Well I can give you a link and you guys can all paypal me some cash. Yes? no? hmm oh well.

No, I believe this is a glass harmonica.

edit:
my bad, I was referring to an armonica.

Looks fake, but I'm a sucker for that kind of performance, even without the ludicrous speed.

I bet he'd be a lot faster on a armonica.

We need a *holysh!t channel.

the fluorescent light in the video blinks slightly at the least common multiple of the shutter period and 1/(60Hz). This blinking speeds up during the speedy part of the music.
