    This video never gets old
    When you stand up and the arms are still there it just gets me every time
    I like really long bends and stuff like that the whammy bar which just seems better played slow in any case and one thing to notice here is most people's hand movements are slow and steady
    Even when they're moving very very fast they're just waiting on a sound to bounce their sound off of and that's what makes you think that they are going fast is they are so steady that they can bounce that sound off that delay it just the right time to make it seem like it's coming out at a million miles an hour when in reality your fingers don't really have to move that fast you just have to catch that note at just the right time it's more about being steady and smooth and slow sometimes a pause where you don't play anything can be the best part of the song then you come in strong make your guitar sound like a lightsaber fighting Darth Vader throwing some bends to slow it back down
    Same thing with the bins you catch that sound that's coming out and then you make your sound and then you do the same thing until it dies out every split second that you wait before you catch that wave is going to change what it's going to sound like if you go in too fast it's also going to change what it sounds like you won't be messing up it's just a different speed wherever that noise is if you come in it before or after it the closer you can get to it the faster it's going to sound if you're a half a millisecond away from that beat it's going to sound like you're flying to space

    Strings resonate at a certain frequency, meaning that theoretically there is a limit to how short of a note can be articulated, without bleed over into the next note. An anecdote to illustrate the issue...
    Master of Puppets has parts of it sped up. Not because Hetfield couldn't play it at speed, but because the recording wasn't capturing the articulation of the notes, for the aforementioned reason. So, for the famous intro riff, for example, it was downtuned, played at a slower tempo and then sped up to match the correct tempo and tuning. The result is that incredibly clean, tight riff, no one can ever make sound quite right. If you listen, you can also hear the difference in the texture of the distortion.
    A dead giveaway that something has been manipulated, is clear, precise articulation of individual notes, at ridiculous speed.

      Wow, very interesting. I knew that The Beatles did it, but it's very interesting if Metallica did. Do you know sources that say it's the case? I'm really interested how records in general in many cases were made to sound so good. There are always more tricks to discover. For example I've learned recently that pizzicato notes in orchestra are often replaced with MIDI in order to sound more tight. Also the piano+guitar note in Sanitarium is really interesting and not obvious.

      Flemming Rasmussen talks about it, in a few interviews. Just look him up and youll find a bunch of stuff about recording Metallica. He used a lot of recording tricks, in place of effects and post-processing. For instance, instead of reverb, he actually multitracked the guitars with delayed and fading iterations.

    I think pretty much the closest I've seen to a legit attempt was Tiago Della Vega with his 320bpm. You can actually hear the individual picking sounds, and for the most part it doesn't sound like a muddled mess at the higher BPM. Not to mention it was relatively low gain, so there wasn't too much there to mask the mistakes like most of the others.

    I know I'm two years late, but I'm confused; wasn't the accusation that the shot was faked based on the player's _reflection in the television_ rather than the mere fact that there was simply a clock on camera?
    Your watch didn't have your own reflection in it, so it was way easier to fake. When there's a clock ticking n the background and right behind it you can see the guy's reflection in the TV, it's pretty safe to assume it's real. If he sped up the clock, the reflection would be too fast. If he sped up the reflection, the clock would be too fast.
    ...of course, he could've slowed the clock to half speed (somehow?), played it half speed, and doubled it.
    That's my understanding of that comment's explanation anyway, but I'm not sure.

      I think it’s because it’s mainly chromatic compared to other songs and in a way it’s less demanding than other like the Tornado of souls Solo, Master of Puppets at 1600BPM would be down right impossible for a human since it’s a downstrokes.... Although Maybe if you sweep pick fast enough you just might be able to play at 1600BPM but how many notes will actually be accurate?😂
      There’s also Paganini.... I wouldn’t even try speeding any of the Caprices up since some of them are just hard in their respective time measures😭🤣

    That was fun to watch, thanks for putting it together. Over the years, a number of fantastic trumpet players have recorded versions of Flight of the Bumblebee that are incredible. There is one of Rafael Mendez from ages and ages ago, which he played on an instructional basis. In more recent years, Wynton Marsalis recorded a version that....you just gotta hear it. Obviously trumpet players need to breathe, which may make some people question the legitimacy. Super-advanced players can do what is referred to as "circular breathing". This is when you breathe in through your nose, pocket some air in your mouth while you do that, and therefore create a continuous flow of air. It is an extraordinarily difficult technique to learn, I was never able to do it, I had my hands full with other things I never felt I mastered, but both players use that technique in their recordings. Marsalis also used this technique to play "Moto Perpetuo", and he's just sick. The ability to breathe in that manner, maintain the musculature, control the airflow, and play such that it never sounds like you are oxygen starved even though there are times when you must be.....it is simply unreal. I strongly recommend you check out these two musicians.

      Yeah, and there seems to be some choppy movements of the people outside, and at the part where there's no people, it looks like a car in the distance makes unnaturally jerky movements. He also admitted it was fake. The first guy is the only one that's plausible. But one thing, it's only the picking hand that has to hit that speed. It never mentions they have to be clean notes played. I'd imagine even missed notes would count as long as the string was picked.

ONLY AT THIS SPEED was I able to begin to decipher the incredibly artistry and mechanical / technical prowess this young guitarist was actually demonstrating right before our eyes. Tears rolled off my cheeks as I watched in utter befoundment, as this boy ripped through note after blistering note. I am ashamed of you Tyler, for making fun of and bullying such a prodigy. I am ashamed of myself. Pearls before swine I guess. Next time do your research before you poke fun at a professional like this.

But I never realized how much music theory there really is and how much you can expand your knowledge playing. Like i rarely wanna play songs anymore and I just wanna learn music theory and different techniques on the guitar through the super system. Just a big thank you Tyler because I didn't think I'd would improve much more. I wasted so much time starting out.
