I'm now disheartened that I've not any cool talents. :<
It's a a cool video but why does nearly every 2nd clip on youtube has this generic 123 bpm dubstep music?

these people weren't born being able to do this, they practised for years

Don't know about you, but I've got some cool talents! but they can't be captured in under a few minutes or put to cool music. Put a camera on a tripod behind my fat ass and watch me make a sick 3D model in 9 hours
[QUOTE=TedStriker;47867664]It's a a cool video but why does nearly every 2nd clip on youtube has this generic 123 bpm dubstep music?[/QUOTe] dubstep/electronic is just really big now; so no other reason than a lot of people in the world like it. So it pops up in anything, especially in shit it doesn't fit at all

Dubstep? You mean EDM, nobody likes dubstep nowadays.
they should rename the video "asians are awesome" because the entire video is literally just asians

Dubstep is fucking massive in north America still, not sure about where you live; so there are still a fuckload of people who like it with all the differing festivals and all that shit. EDM in general has become huge all across America; but yeah EDM's probably the better term

but at the same time it's not really necessary because asians are, according to the internet, people too

EDM isn't a genre in itself lol
Its an umbrella term
House is EDM, so is trance, dubstep, trap, electro, and anything that you would consider "electronic music" that you can or would dance to.

This post annoyed me more than it should. I guess cause I used to say a lot of shit like this.
Go learn something rather than just feeling sorry for yourself.
That last guy holy shit, talk about multitasking.
reev is right, these people didn't just get born with these skills. This stuff takes a ton of practice and dedication, although some of the stuff would have you learn something else before what you see.
Any of that stuff is the same as learning guitar or bike tricks, it just takes time and a bit of coordination.
damn asians

No joke, fuck I wish western culture had such dedication imprinted in our daily lifestyle. All we do to get motivated is sharing videos on facebook of an american life-coach spewing out positive shit about living life to the fullest... Also, "yolo" if we're feeling frisky.

Only a handful of people in eastern countries can do these things.

The channel is based in Taiwan and the focus is usually on street performers, who tend have unusual talents no matter the location.
It's not the race or location. There are plenty of people from different countries who are talented

I don't know, every single asian I've ever known has been extraordinary great at at least three different things :v:

teeeechnically I think its more of future bass since it uses sampling and a four-on-the-floor beat like house music, but still has a pretty heavy drum sound and bassline. Its not really progressive house, and thank god its not the generic deep house that has been flooding youtube.
w/e it is it isn't dubstep :v
What the fuck kind of discussion have i started in here :v:
Don't let yourself think that you ain't got a talent just because of this.
First of all, many people don't understand that talent is not the technical skill, but the verve that keeps you on pushing the envelope further, a thing that makes you interested in exploring that ability and keeping you dedicated to it. Over time, you'll naturally gain technical prowess of the subject at hand.
Also, many talents aren't really something you can capture on a video like that, for example being a graphics artist or a programmer. Writing code isn't flashy or interesting to look at for majority of people, but don't let that make you feel worse. It takes skills and dedication to write a good program, just like it takes skills and dedication to draw something that looks appealing to the eye or to perform cool looking moves.
As for the video... It's impressive. However, it must be noted that those videos are compilations of the best performances recorded. What you don't see it how they've failed numerous times trying to perform and perfect a trick before getting it right. It took them rigorous training and lots of passion, and a lot of mistakes and injuries along the way.
Yeah this post is long, but I wanted to point out the misconception people have about talents. Some talents just aren't flashy to be shown on video like that, but that doesn't change the fact that no productive talent is better or worse, as they're all equally important. Those who say "I got no talent" should be helped out, as nobody is talentless, it just requires that someone or something motivates them to find their own creativity cornerstone.

These things are awesome!
- Rotate them 90 degrees
- Make some way to easily attach them to shoes (easier than actual skates)
Really fucking useful to be quite a bit faster than walking without having to bring something like a bike, skates, skateboard or segway.

You can buy one of these things and use them like a scooter, using one foot to push.

Useful as [I]fuck[/I]. Equally useful as they are expensive, god damn.
I would like to learn how to spin pens around like that. All the other stuff is too hard for me.
