I've never played violin in my life, but I reckon I could beat this guy's record if I was allowed to play the piece as inaccurately as he did.
No u coudn't ur so dumb, even though he only played 50 percent of the noets incorrectly he still 10x better than u.
@@LisztFan2005 Oh my, aren't you such a charming individual? You could really turn a girl's head with all that sweet talk. And so articulate and erudite as well, with that silver tongue.
@@HeatherAckroyd Is it accurate to say that you aren't a refulgent little light emission with all your bitingness? On the off chance that you guarantee that you have never played the violin up to, what gives you the authority to guarantee that you could play better compared to this person, I get that you mean it in a stupid way, but still why insult this person. ? This person isn't wretched he was shown as this violin god, I don't cerebrate he truly needs that.

I couldn't actually hear the violin, his ego was screaming over.
I agree with jason
What is your problem with his ego and his personality in the comments guyz cm'on
+andromisilibrober Our problem with it, is that they're too inflated. Having an Ego is ok, but when it's self inflated to his level, it gets annoying. And his personality is pretty snooty and arrogant. He brags a lot also. That's our problem.
too true
I completely agree. Personally, I thought that was actually a pretty horrible noise. Being able to play something really fast doesn't mean that you are playing it well. This is a perfect example of that. There are a lot of truly great violinists in the world who have a great deal less in the way of ego. The true greats are there to service the music, not to inflate their own egos.
What he is doing: play 810 wrong notes in under a second👏👏👏
1:01 'Are there any pieces that shouldn't be played quickly cos they are great pieces and should be played at the speed they were written at?'
'Well, Paganini was the first rockstar of the violin and to beat the record I gotta play four notes a click now let me show off again rq x.......'
'Not what I asked you.'
He's more of a showman than a violinist.

"If you can play it slowly, you can play it quickly." - Len (Flight of the Bumble) Bee
When I first saw this in 2014 I was quite amazed because I had only been playing for a bit over a year. Now that I’m looking back at it, man he just straight up missed every note and it sounded horrible even though he’s on an electric instrument. Also, is no one gonna mention how this instrument has 5 strings? It deserves to burn
no longer the fastest. twosetviolin did it in 25 seconds.
Vinnick yeet
Ling Ling can do it in 10

With that low of an accuracy, anyone can do it in under 1 minute. 😂

death of the bumblebee you mean
Ends in 810 notes per second

So true

World record for most missed notes in a performance. Truly impressive to be that shameless.

I revisit this video every year to remind myself what a world record fart sounds like
Ling Ling can play the bumblebee in 0.4 seconds.
All on the G string.
Upside-down.
One-handed.
While doing the Lindsay Stirling.
elmohead and it’ll still sound better than this guy
While playing the chicken and piano at the same time
That's what you can do when you practice 40 hours a day
xD
Ling Ling can do all. Ling Ling is unstoppable
It doesn’t sound like a bumblebee flying it sounds like a cicada dying
😂
it sounds like what make true violinists to...
Bee in the back

That is not a violin. This is not a violin player. This is a dude who just wants to sell his 24k gold violins.

HAIAGAISGSIWWH
If you search up the definition of a violin, it says that it's made of wood, and this one is not, so he is technically the fastest electric violin player.
He's not the fastest, nor a violin player... You should check out David Garrett's flight of the bumblebee where he actually played the notes... This guy is a scam...
his electric 'violin' has 5 strings. he has stooped so low that he cant even be compared to a electric violin.

They're brave for leaving the comment section open for this one, I've got to say.
The amount of hate which is going towards him is unstoppable but I have to agree withe evrything that the comments have said though cause this guy does not know how to play a violin and I have been learning for 3 yrs and I can probably play better than his piece.

Is more fitting tho

actually thats not trtue
but he is nothing compared to ling ling. he doesnt practise 40 hours a day

he just here to sell that $$$ violin, and not play. he's literally GLISSING

"The violin typically has four strings"

He does not deserve the world record.

2 - it's electric, this eliminates many of the requirements in playing a violin
3 - almost none of the notes are accurate or in tune or rythm, thus he never achieved jack

TheMystic32 is a mini guitar, as I voila player I don’t claim him
Guys, I know it's a meme and what not but did you know some guitars having 7+ strings doesn't negate which instrument it is. Just saying...
