The World's Fastest Double Bass Drumming

[Horus]

NO FUKKEN WAI

1407 bpm. 'Nuff said.

Stupid youtube made it look slow cause of the frame skippage.

 

[Meedleyx10]

is that Donati standing over his shoulder there?

 

[Matt]

I wonder how Hellhammer, Mackintosh or Tyrm would do in that.

 

[progmetaldan]

Yep, that's none other than Virgil Donati, the insane metal-fusion drummer from my own country Australia!

 

[<-Warheart->]

It's not 1407bpm.

It's 1407 hits per minute. You'd count how many beats he actually plays in 60 seconds, 4 hits per 1 beat.

It's more like 350bpm I *think*.

(4 hits ber beat -> 1407 hits in one minute -> 1407 &#247; 4 = 351.75)

 

[bball_1523]

lol is he a country dummer?

 

[SyXified]

My understanding was that the dude from Cryptopsy held the record, at least according to Guiness

 

[Eternal Dragon]

Thats pretty cool. Virgil is a better drummer though. Also check this dude out....YouTube - Pete Drummond Clinic Highlights Aug 2006 ...... I don't know who he is cos i'm not a drummer, but its pretty cool.

 

[progmetaldan]

Virgil > all drummers.

Maybe not, but he's right up there IMO

 

[NegativeVolume]

Donati is mighty. This dude's feet are too...sickening.

 

[NegativeVolume]

Pardon the quick post, but I must commend this guy's non-arrogance. What band does this dude play for?

Flo is the shit...I was actually thinking the whole time "I wonder how fast Flo can do that?" hehe

 

[OfSinsAndShred]

Flo is fucking SCARY good.

 

[Matt]

Hellhammer is better

 

[<-Warheart->]

Flo sucks. I watched a live drum solo and it was fucking sloppy. Portnoy is better than him. But then again...Derek Roddy.

Neil Peart.

 

[progmetaldan]

Rick Colaluca of Watchtower fame keeps pretty good time on the drums...
Also, shrapnel drummers Deen Castranova and Atma Anur deserve a mention... I know they're not the best, but they're still pretty damn awesome!

 

[SambaBoy]

Cum 0n guys, Lars Ulrich pwnz him every day

Haha, nice work. I bet he sucks at rolls and stuff though

 

[Matt]

He seemed fairly well rounded, not just a feet guy.
