It is a running joke that Eugene is good at everything. It's an accurate joke.

[@ItsJustLisa]

Yes, yes it is.

[@caroleberreur9585]

Yes, I also watched him do the combo with the ribbon in their series on the Olympics, and he was good!

[@potato-whiz]

He actually is a dancer so it was well spotted lol. He has experience.

[@JessieBanana]

@@potato-whiz Not everyone can go from one style to another, and it’s not just dance, it’s a lot of things. He’s a talented person.

[@potato-whiz]

@@JessieBanana I know, but he’s clearly able to tap into his dance background in order to do this. The girl here picked up on his experience. Not saying it’s not impressive but he’s trained.

[@nectarina3891]

Eugene is one of those people who could start ballet as an adult and go pro in 2 years. He doesn't have much training but his dancing is really good.

[@DestinyHopeLou]

His arms are more graceful and fluid than my dancing. 😒😂

[@anti_sse]

Eugene's body control is another level for a "regular" human

[@caroleberreur9585]

He’s got that serious face of someone who actually wants to try. He’s like my husband when I teach him ballet (love right there).

[@Esther_Grace]

Pro is a bit of a *ahem* stretch.

[@ahhh4117]

@@Esther_Grace If he threw himself into it for 2 years straight. He could do it

[@mayochupenjoyer]

the best part is that Ned’s (“home boy on the far left”) sister actually is a ballerina

[@ItsJustLisa]

I didn’t know that! That makes him trying ballet even funnier! I think Josephine needs to meet them and have Ned’s sister there too.

[@msrustyspatula8679]

@@ItsJustLisa Me neither and I AGREEE

[@nell__byte]

@@ItsJustLisa Yeah, I've been wondering when the Try Guy's will have Ned's sister do a reaction vid. Although she's probably seen it at least a couple times by now, so it won't be like a "first reaction" type video. Would still be fun to see.

[@thebadpoet]

I think she meant Zach, who was on stage left (audience right)

[@minilea144]

@@nell__byte unfortunately, Ned isn't part of the group anymore. Or fortunately, however you want to see it.

We need Josephine meet ALL of the try guys and do a "part 2 but better". ASAP. Please and thank you.

Remember to send it to them. Would absolutely love it!!!

[@blewblupop68]

With a professional male ballet dancer showing them how men train in ballet (correct representation of what ballet ACTUALLY IS- maybe a simple male variation..?). Not them frolicking in tutus…

[@lhuynh731]

[@rebekahl840]

[@sj4iy]

Zach (the shorter one and the one who struggled) has Ankylosing spondylitis, an autoimmune condition that affects the spine, which really makes anything physical harder for him.

[@livewellwitheds6885]

yeah not to mention exercise with chronic pain is generally difficult. ballet/pointe? much more painful and hard. I've had chronic pain my whole life and there's no way I could do what Zach did

[@cardamonradio]

@live well with EDS not to discount anyone's experience or anything, but a lot of ballerinas do develop chronic pain (especially professionals). Usually, it's in the knees or hips since those are the areas that tend to get stressed the most in ballet. Again, not to say that anyone's experience is any less valid, it's just important to know.

[@thebadpoet]

@PrinceAlastor there is a world of difference between pain from injury and overuse and pain from chronic autoimmune or auto inflammatory conditions. A lot of dancers definitely have pain and a lot get injured and ballet dancers are tough as nails. But when your own immune system is attacking you from the inside out and your synovial fluid is swollen (or, with something like EDS you don’t produce collagen and your joints and connective tissues are so loose that it is actively dangerous to be in a situation where you can hyperextend) the kind of intense movement and positions required by ballet are well nigh impossible. I know you don’t want to “discount” anyone’s experience, but as someone with a chronic inflammatory illness it is so exhausting to have able bodied people compare their injuries, pain, tiredness after staying up all night, etc to my situation.

[@minilea144]

@@thebadpoet i have chronic illness too from birth and I'm more appreciative of people who understand having chronic pain no matter how they got it. It sounds like you are trying to discount others pains because they don't suffer the way you do. It is completely possible to be able bodied and have a chronic inflammatory illness. Zach was prime example until it got worse.

[@AnaPie896]

@@thebadpoet yes I can barely dress myself from my RA and lost my whole career as a dentist over it. It’s not the same at all. Chronic pain is awful no matter what I’m sure but the hell of your own body attacking you is a next level of pain. I’ve broken bones and muscled through many physical injuries before my illness, nothing even touches the level of pain RA puts me through

[@LoyaFrostwind]

I’m sure Eugene’s martial arts training is coming into play. It’s not just about punching and kicking. Improved balance and coordination are definite bonus results.

[@RebelRhiannon]

I also had martial arts training and I can affirm that I still suck at ballet. I think he does hip hop dancing though so that’s probably helping to

[@livewellwitheds6885]

definitely martial arts improves balance it did for me. I'd still suck at this tho haha

[@phoebeahn8941]

It also helps that he's an actual dancer XD

Eugene is an amazing dancer/choreographer, so he had a bit of an unfair advantage in this one. But I loved how they just went for it.

[@expressly_art6572]

what do you mean by advantage? I don't think they were competing in the first place.

[@MissMiseryGloom]

When Josephine says, "I hope they signed a waiver..." you know it's a good video. XD thanks so much for the laughs, I needed them!

[@uduck]

As a male dancer who has performed the russian dance in the nutcracker dozens of times, i think they did pretty good, they could use a little more tricks in their choreography but i genuinely believe that the audience would love anything if it has this music. I feel like even on days where the performance goes horribly, the audience still thinks that russian is the best even when it isnt lol

[@sapphomg3171]

I think she could rename this video: Pointe Shoe Fitter Reacts to Eugene Lee Yang Being Good at Things

[@mermaidopulence8539]

Josephine you should teach Eugene ballet

[@shyeahright]

YES. I would watch the hell out of a fitting video and I think they would be all in. Please reach out! Viral video in the making 😄

[@TamaNegi-el9yd]

„Try Guys customize their pointe shoes“ would be funny. Just imagine Keith banging the shit out of the shoe box

[@GloriousClio]

I definitely need this crossover.

[@decodolly1535]

This needs some kind of tag to indicate it's not safe to view while drinking a coffee! Trying so hard not to spit it all over the laptop through laughing, I nearly choked myself to death. (PS - definitely want to see the try guys being fitted for pointe shoes!)

[@LadyAryun]

You should watch the one where Eugene learns a Kpop dance in few hours (She's like, he's not gonna get it, so I'm gonna teach you a not so difficult version, and the guy behind the camera's like 'no, teach him the real one. He'll surprise you'). He's phenomenal. They all are, though, just Eugene is good at everything

I love this! It was hilarious! I think all of the guys need to meet with Josephine for a fitting and a chat. I agree, Eugene has ballet experience.

Oof dude same but it's always my pinkie toenails that come off. I can't imagine that for your big toe, that's so much exposed area.

[@franziskamaria5157]

Eugene said somewhere that he sees the nutcracker ballet once a year. And he has a background of performing and dance.

[@smarina251]

I honestly love this video because even while they’re not great, they’re definitely trying their hardest! And it gave the guys a run for their money and shows how hard ballet truly is

[@jalynkwong25]

We need a try guys x the pointe shop

[@mswitch936]

I would love for you to actually give Eugene a proper fitting and him to take a few classes on his own. I think he’d do so well doing more Ballet.

[@livc832]

This is an accurate representation of watching the tiny tots at performance. One is on point"e", most are decent, and one is just out there doing their own thing or standing completely still. But all are absolutely adorable. 😂

Now I really want her and Eugene to meet. Also anyone else want to know if she’s ever watched the Barbie ballet movies? Especially swan lake and the nutcracker

[@joseykate8510]

The reason this is my favorite " lets try it " video on dudes with ballet is because although their comedians ( kind of ) they don't joke about it. They joke but not in a rude or disrespectful way. The points shop did a reaction on 2 comedians doing ballet with a professional. And they had the audacity to come to class in tutus and joke and play around. IN A RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL WAY. This group was so respectful and admiring of the woman in this video. 10/10

[@JR-gh8lp]

“… I will always remember you Eugene… “ words to live by

[@kmart1396]

Yes yes yes, try guys try pointing shoe fitting please!!! if for nothing more than Josephine and Eugene just like bonding. Also like you could show them a little video of like how point shoes are made, explain some of the styles and challenge them to figure out the best fit for each other and then finish off each with a proper fitting!

[@kathyknight3896]

Routines like that are HARD to learn especially for "non-dancers". I'm impressed that they were able to remember all the moves for 2 dances with such a short preparation time.

[@talker51292]

Eugene’s been dancing hip hop since he was in high school!

[@sonarharin3906]

this is the first video of "guys try ballet" that i've seen where they really have respect for the art and also try their best And have a good time and make it funny.... winning combo! thanks!

[@lollylula6399]

"I Trained with an Elite Ballet Dancer *harder than it looks*" by Natacha Océane is a good one. She is a sports woman, i think, and it gives an insight into how hard ballet training really is. Also great as it features Eric Underwood - fantastic ballet dancer/artist, really kind and insightful instructor, and he is fine :)

[@_unicorncorgi_]

Eugene andJosephine meeting up would be the collab I never knew I needed… but now absolutely must happen 💛✨

[@kathyjohnson2043]

Eugine IS a dancer. I hope you saw his coming out created in dance

[@erinbanana22]

I love the praise Eugene always gets,he was a baddie in their try guys heels episode too

[@melodyleong]

There was a Korean show called the Swan Club, where a few Korean celebrities trained with the Korean National Ballet (I watched it on KZbin)! Would you ever do a react to that? It was really well done and portrayed ballet in a realistic way I feel. Son Yeon Jae (the Olympics RG competitor), a retired professional ballerina and a girl who used to train professionally as a chinese dancer was on the show, so they had proper dancing in it and all (mixed in with all the regular newbies doing ballet first time on the show of course)!

[@parismarie220]

This is the collab that no one knew we needed! I hope the try guys see this and do something in person

[@ShiningStar2010]

YES they should absolutely do a returning ballet video like trying point shoes

[@nickawannashaw6613]

Your reactions and kindness were so authentic. Heartwarming! Those Try Guys do try hard with a very un-ironic earnestness. 💓

[@CuteMissDK]

YES! Thank you for reacting to that (should I say them?) Eugene is good at everything he tries, that's just his way of life :D

[@Edera7795]

I haven't laughed this hard in so long I think Eugene has some dance background

[@SuzieNerds]

YEEEES! Josephine and Eugene should TOTALLY meet!

[@GeekGamer666]

It reminds me of the really little kids classes where there's always one who tries super hard and knows all the moves and one who has no clue and stands at the edge of the stage staring at the audience.

[@fsjukebox]

Zach (little guy in glasses) and Keith (clumsy giant) are hysterical in that video! Josephine, you need to meet them and do a “part 2” to their video. Someone said that Ned’s sister IS a ballerina, so she needs to be invited too.

[@majormana1]

Keith isn't clumsy he is fairly graceful. of course Eugene is more graceful. Honestly the second shortest Ned seems to be clumsiest esp with how often he gets hurt. I really don't know where Keith and Eugene get Keith being awkward he just isn't
