Переглядів 173 тис.10 років тому
1948 short film "Bowling Tricks" features the game's best trick shot artist Andy Varipapa and an array of bowling tricks.
8:07 He did The Flying Eagle way before anyone else!
How big is Mrs. V's lamp collection?
I saw this on FB and had to Google this dude. OMG, how amazing is he.
This is what people use to watch at the movie theaters before the main movie.
I'm Polish & from Ohio of course, I bowl
"What's your name?" "A Smith named Pete" "Okay Pete Smith..." "No no it's a Smith named Pete, it's like A Tribe Called Quest you gotta say the whole thing"
Now,oh my god,OMG,o my God!🎉simply unbelievable!❤
Andy came to Gadsden, Alabama in 1958 to dedicate a new bowling alley that the McCluskey brothers had built by Brunswick Company. Some of his shots you just seen he did
That guy can roll man!
Combine a folk rock vocal group with a pro bowler and you get The Mamas and the Andy Varipapas. Combine a pro bowler with a blue cartoon character and you get Andy Varipapa Smurf. Combine a pro bowler with a pizza place and you get Andy Varipapa John's.
He was my Grandma’s cousin. I remember hearing about him growing up, but never saw this film until recently. Incredible!
He was my Grandmas cousin too who’s your Grandma?
Wow! Technically my grandpa Frank Marra’s cousin, but I never knew my grandpa. My grandma Geraldine who survived him, used to mention Andy.
Andy is GOAT.
That smile tho hahaha
All “freshmen” trick bowlers are only trying to reinvent the wheel as a hexagon. He is the genuine model for the 100 pin Wii game before video games existed. 😉
Only MGM could have afforded the amount of film this took to make.
Maybe in your mind, but I've seen color reels 40 minutes long in 1936. That's a two in one for you, both longer film than you ought to have thought, and color, not colorized video. Not to mention, this idea of that, isn't even to begin on the topic. And yes, right now this is me writing trying to remember what I was going to say next, damn it sucks to have memory loss at random times.
this comment is in appriciation of Andy's skills but more important his majestic butt.
The question is how Andy even thinks of doing these tricks. What imagination!
Wow, amazing skill from Andy. Also love the snarky commentary from the narrator.
The 40's was a much different time in America, huh?!
Beyond belief! So glad the film is available. No one else will ever come close to Papa Varipapa! 🤗
Andy also won the All-Star (now US Open) at 57 years old when it was a 100 game format. Then he repeated at age 58... and damn-near 3-peated at age 59 with a runner-up!
And he finished third the year before he won. So he went 3rd 1st 1st 2nd in what is now the US Open. At age 69 he won $9000 throwing 6 in a row on Jackpot Bowling and at 79 was named to the Presidents Council on Physical Fitness. He was the man!
@@glenngerstner8862 I didn't know about the 3rd too. What an absolute stud!!
We had a bowling alley growing up. Built in the 50's so all of this feels very familiar. We used to turn a few lanes on and goof around all the time. Today the alley is gone. A damn McDonalds sits there now.
What a shame, it is sad people don't meet up at bowling alleys or arcades anymore.
@@StrawHatGarage What's also sad that Bowling Centers nowadays are turning into Arcades, specifically the ones in the US and Europe. Like they jacked the price up, taking out the Free Fall Pinsetters for stupid StringPin Garbage, installing LED projector walls replacing the Masking Units and Cosmic Bowling everyday.
Damn, I assumed this was a a fake or some sort of attempt to make a modern video+cgi look like it was from the 40s Nope, 100% real and the guy's backstory is pretty cool too! He learned to bowl lefty when he was old and his right hand was giving him issue and also played other sports pretty well including a go at boxing. I did wonder how many takes some of those took (I've seen trick shot experts in pool sometimes take multiple goes to get it right) but he did this stuff in exhibitions regularly and film was too expensive to waste hundreds of yards of it on multiple takes.
A little confused why you thought this wasn't from the 1940s.
"Papa Veripapa hasn't popped one, yet!" Brilliant
The word goat is tossed around a lot these days. But this man Papa Varipapa is def the GOAT
I finally got it Andy! The perfect 300 game Backwards ua-cam.com/video/NiQqztUELvE/v-deo.html
Andy alAndy Andy Varipapa, Andy Andy Andy very good, Andy Andy Varipapa, l'america e il suo sogno, sei tu!
mike mandel hypnosis brainsoftware podcast took me here. :)
8:06 goose pimples 😂 you don't hear anyone saying that nowadays
Thankfully my wife says that
That's my Dad's Uncle!!!!
Who’s your dad ??? Andy was my great grandmas older brother. Concetta is my grandmas grandma. Andy’s mother .
Vine por Tomi Olava
"Produced and Narrated by a Smith named Pete" Even the credits are great.
what a legend. i've seen some silly trick shots, but some of those are just nutty. the double flying eagle? you have to be kidding. Double flying eagle WITH a strike too? Whatttttt
This guy is king of bowling He should be the hall of fame.
He is
The Modern Andy Veripapa
Slower than a snail at a snail's funeral🙂
Late 40s
Glass clean up on lane 2.
Is it just me or could this guy pass for "old twinkle toes" aka Fred Flintstone?
I was thinking the same! Even when Fred bowled and knocked pins down in the adjoining alley! LOL!
Bowling at missouri state
Absolutely brilliant
you mean to tell me CGI existed back in '51 ?
He once bowled 46 games,with every ball a strike...Fact & a World Record in 1938
That's 556 consecutive strikes. Not possible, not a fact.
@@greghughes6098 How do you know it isn't possible?
@@greghughes6098 opie?
Suuure he did...the all time record as of 1980 was only 40 strikes...STRIKES not games. Record my ass.
He was known for bowling twelve strikes over two games and never conventionally. And even if he had, that statement is ridiculous.
5:04 Man, it would’ve been cool if the 10 Pin is on the Right Lane
Decades before urethane and reactive resin.
That was the rubber ball era
@@mikesoct82484 Well that speaks the fact on how the balls were bounced out of the gutter lol
What a legend!
Funeral to the pins.
ba ba hareketlere bak artist.
Papa Verapapa is the man!
This dude perfect.
