How much time does this guy have?
This video shows the most amazing Domino course I have ever seen. This is what some one does when they want to get on the Guiness Book of World Records. This is one of those things someone does without mistakes because no one really has the heart to do it again. While you watch the video keep your jaw up and imagine what would happen if he missed the first shot.

I don't think this is about how much time the person has, I think it's about how dedicated a person has to be to actually attempt this and accomplish it regardless of wanting to be in the Guinness Book of World Records.
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing how people try new things to impress other people. This video is cool in how all the pocket balls go inside, maybe it took a lot of time to get what that person need it but as you can see he made it and is really impressive. If he had missed the first shot, he would have been disappointed and embarrassed because many people should be watching and taking videos.
ReplyDeleteThis is incredible! I have never seen anything like this before! It must have taken a lot of time and dedication to set up all of those dominoes, billard balls and poles.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cool!!! how can he do that? I bet he calculated a lot to make the balls move in the right direction!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh wow!!!! cool!!!!
ReplyDeleteHumans are incredible!!!!!
He must taken a days!!! I think!
This is so cool, I want to know how much time does he spent doing this cool video? It will be so awesome to do a thing like this and it will be tired to do it, and it will be hard to do something like this.
ReplyDeleteWOW!! This is so cool and I want to know how they plan this and do this. It is cool that this person played "Pool" with dominoes and it is so amazing that he put the balls in they right place and direction so that the balls go to the hole.
ReplyDeleteIts cool how people can create a thing like this from nothing. How might have invented this? it is so cool.
ReplyDeleteSo cool, how can it be possible that he can calculate all the moves that the ball will make?
ReplyDeletewow! that was really cool!! How did he do that?? I would love to try it! I think that if he had missed the first shot, then the dominoes wouldn't have fallen the right way.
ReplyDeleteSo he made one shot and he completed 4 tables full of dominoes. I can imagine this guy practicing for days maybe even years to be able to set up all those dominoes correctly.
ReplyDeleteDanny, you're absolutely right.
ReplyDeleteI prefer building dominos for several ours than finishing my homework for several hours!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing to think about how many times he practiced until all the pieces were perfectly set up to do it correctly! Nice
ReplyDeleteWow, if I were to build a domino course this long and then I accidently missed the initial shot, I would go berserk! I would definitely not try to re-build it.
ReplyDeleteOhh WOW !! Awesome video I like when the domino fall down! I am gonna to do that at my house!
ReplyDeleteI do not want to even think about what would happen if he missed it at the first time... He should've had spent days doing those calculation and building the dominos... I would be very frustrated if I was the one who was building that thing and if there was a tremor at my house.
ReplyDeleteI think that if he had missed the first shot all his act would have been a complete failure because he would not have dropped any Domino meaning that the act would not have gone as planned and he would have to redo all the course. By the way, this video was really good
ReplyDeleteits amazing how people take time doing these, it would be frustrating when you are almost done one of them just falls. once i wanted to do a domino fall starting from my room to my brothers room, i was half done and suddenly my brother comes and says " oh cool" and when i notice my dominos' are falling.
ReplyDeleteIt seems like the holes are sucking the balls.
ReplyDeleteThese types of things always leave my jaw hanging open. I was duly impressed with the first table, but i never imagined there to be two more. I was even more impressed by how the last ball always found its way to another table. This sort of thing demands heart and perseverance, which is way more impressive than the amount of time someone has on his hands.
ReplyDeleteThat would be horrible if it did not work. I would have cried if it did not work.
ReplyDeleteI t must have taken months to set all this up in such a perfect way.
ReplyDeleteWow. How can this guy have enough patience to do all of this! i agree with you ganzie, it would be pretty bad if he had missed. But, this was a good trick, i like it!
ReplyDeletei would have no patience for that at all.... wow that is one cool trick
ReplyDeleteThis is too good makes you think huh you never know if its real. Videos can be modified just like movies they can do one table then stop then combine in with the next and make it look like they filmed it once well maybe not you never know.... I bet i could do that with my eyes close ........ or can ..........
ReplyDeleteI don´t think that the guy is good or very good but waht I think is that the poles or the ball that he is using has a trick. On the other hand i also believe that he is very good and that this is his job, playing pool.
ReplyDeleteI think this video is awesome and that must take him a lot of time.
ReplyDeleteHow long did it take him to do all that? Its amazing how he calculated every move of the balls. Its kind of sad that he uses so much time to set up the dominoes, and the balls, and that the process of the dominoes tipping over passes so fast...
ReplyDeleteI don't the question should be "how much time does this guy have?" but "how far can his creativity and skills take him?" It doesn't matter what it is but if you dedicate a lot of time and effort and become an expert in one thing, the results will be similar to this video.
ReplyDeleteThis guy's creativity and skills are cool, however, I'm sure that there are many other amazing tricks people can do with Domino. At first I was impressed, but later I realized that this guy just wanted fame. It's sad that people still aim for fame when they can get fun doing other activities rather than wasting time.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the recognition Mr. AB, everyone is saying "how does this guy have so much time", but how do we really know if only one guy did this, maybe he was helped by many other people.
ReplyDeleteFollow up comment: It would have been cooler if when the dominoes fell, they would make a shape of any kind. In the book The Book Thief, one of the characters does something like that with dominoes, he makes them form a Swatzika.
ReplyDeleteDaniel, I absolutely agree with you, it is more credible to believe that he was helped by a group of people than to believe he did it all alone. Who wouldn't want help doing something so hard as this?
ReplyDeleteI agree with SJ. When you are doing something with Dominos and one falls it is such a frustration and then when you redo it, something else goes wrong and you have to restart it. I really admire this person he must have a lot of patience, this is one characteristic that I try to gain but it is very hard. As I read what Amir and Daniel said, it got me thinking. Maybe he did not do it alone... Maybe he got helped...Maybe he did not...
ReplyDeleteI am still jealous of how amazing that is. How come I can't come up with stuff like that?
ReplyDeleteIt must have taken months to set all this procedure up. It seems amazing on how the ball stays in such a way balanced when it slides over each pool club.
ReplyDeleteI don't think this man got it one shot, but it's still amazing, I wish I was as talented as that guy, congratulations to whoever he is.
ReplyDeleteIt's cool...
ReplyDeleteWell sebastian, it may have been modified but you really never know. I personally believe it wasn't modified. What reason could the author of this feat give to explain why he modified it, if he did, that is? Im trying to say it wouldn't make sense to say that the video was modified because there wouldn't be any reason to do so, at least that is what I think
ReplyDeleteWOW!!!! THAT IS AMAZING!!! I REALLY HOPE I SHOULD DO THIS; IT'S PROBABLY THE BEST TRICK I'VESEEN IN MY WHOLE, ENTIRE, THIRTEEN-YEAR OLD LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI still can't imagine how much time he took practicing and setting all of this! I am shocked...this dude must have nothing to do! It would be great if I did this, but i'm pretty sure I would fail if I tried!
ReplyDeleteYou are right, Marco. It definitely took lots of time to master this technique, hence, the saying, "Practice makes perfect". If we all want to become better at anything, all we have to do is train ourselves to master the technique!
ReplyDeleteYou are right Amir, if someone want to be an expert in something they have to be practice it until they perfection it. I also agree with Ganzie because every time i look at it i get jealous and think of how cool it would be to be able to do this.
