Flight Of The Bumblebee pt. 2: Fastest Guitarist In The World
It’s Friday. That means multiple posts chocked full of stuff I find on Digg. Hold on to your butts.
If you’ve seen my first post about Flight Of The Bumblebee performances, you know where I’m going with this. There is some new video footage of the fastest guitarist in the world. Officially the fastest. That’s not just an exaggeration.
He performs Flight Of The Bumblebee song faster and faster and faster. Each time I thought it was the fastest the song could possibly be performed. But then he goes one faster. If the speed dial goes to 10, he turned it to 11.
I think if he went any faster, the signal sent from the pickup in the guitar to the amplifier to the speakers to our ear drums wouldn’t be able to keep up with his fingers and it would result in some sort of warp in the time-space continuum flux capacitor 1.21 jigawatts huey lewis & the news elisabeth shue fish under the sea dance. And we would all die and/or get injured.
Fast forward the video to 2:56 and get ready to live.
Which films did I annoyingly quote and/or reference in this blog post? Hint: there are 4 of them.
