Your incorrect use of their is making me want to rip off my legs

[@bobthegod0924]

the guy how cusses a lot??????????

[@kiranewman3775]

Everyone else: hitting sticks on their legs Guy on the left: straight up vibing

[@polishguywithhardtospellna8227]

He was the one who picked the songs, the ones he liked the most

[@UnorthodoxSoundwave.]

...left?

[@elementalsheep2672]

This is like having each person play two seperate keys on the same piano. The coordination is insane.

[@olaoluwakolade9575]

I totally agree. They are so good!

[@Beandonuts]

I used to play hand bells which is like the same concept but we always had the music. I'm impressed by their memorization

[@JBTHECOLLECTOR]

I expect its the same as doing dance choreography where you learn your part precisely and don't pay attention to anyone else expecting them to get their part right. But yes it is very impressive.

[@cloud6485]

@@JBTHECOLLECTOR Well look at the two guys on the end. They're basically eye fucking each other. I wouldn't say that their not paying attention to each other. It's more of an extreme synchronization.

Wasn’t he the one who impersonated Scooby Doo tho?

[@markbedway1787]

They don’t get bruises you don’t hit yourself hard enough

[@babybookworm003]

It looks like they have some sort of padding under their jeans where they’re using the boomwhackers

M Sagri means that those being discriminated feelings are no longer hurt

[@cornbreadloverrr]

Has nothing to do with their performance, they did well because they practiced Also I thought the point of ending racism was to avoid thinking about race and look past skin tone?

They are so talented Mad world was so cool and scooby doo sound beautiful

[@SaxophoneMononoke]

Why is no one talking about their crazy dynamics?? 😱 they can play loud or super soft or make a crescendo with an incredible coordination! it's fucking awesome!!

[@bluntspork]

Yall should try playing one of the themes from the Detroit: Become Human soundtrack

[@8arey0urteeth]

YES

Just found these guys and they have played my favourite classical song I’m in love

[@HuntyeahFTW]

Magine if like a couple of drummers came up with something like this

[@cmtippens9209]

This is amazing but, if you play it with the sound off, it looks like some kind of party game where you have to copy the sequence of the person who's looking at you and if you mess it up, you get eliminated and they start over. 😆

[@judith8161]

These things are used in schools to teach kids how to coordinate with others in a group, and I truly regret they didn't exist when I was a kid. If I were a young american watching this, I'd make a huge effort to go to Harvard not just because it has a reputation of being a great university, but also because THEY HAVE BOOMWHACKERS, and they're actually able to play them as a group, which is amazing!
