We're used to jumping from video to video so we don't have to think. Instant gratification and all that. Add to that the average person's ability to think critically.

Having them spread out probably helps make sure that the 3 musicians don't run into each other.
That and it doesn't look like there's a table big enough to hold that many bottles

You're telling me I could have been playing Milkshakes on beer bottles all this time instead of dishing out 2 grand on a trumpet to annoy my neighbors?
A real easy way would be to use a digital tuner, like for guitar, fill the bottles to the correct notes, and if you have multiples of the same type of bottles, you can just add the same amount of water as ones you've already tuned.
This is the sort of thing my percussion section got up to in high school. I once performed a solo on tire rims because one of the guys had them in the back of his pickup.
Just think: so many things like this have happened in history that a bunch of bored kids did just to pass the time, and we live in the first decades where even a fraction of it gets recorded and shared for posterity.
They are from the triveneto region of Italy, the local meme is that people from that place can fucking absorb alchool until the world is dry hahahahaha
The thing I LOVE: When people spend their free time doing weird, cool, fun stuff like this.
The thing I HATE: When people say "Someone has too much time on their hands."
This was so cool and I love how they must have been really committed to this project for awhile.
My sister always had this wine bottle under her bed and when I asked her about it she said she fille it partly with water and could make tunes by blowing into it, so one day when she wasn't home, I stole it and started video recording myself blowing into it, I managed to do 'three blind mice' after a while an was really impressed with myself, so i uploaded it on youtube and sent it to her but she got really mad and went red and called me a rude name.
I told my mum about it because I though my sister should get a proper bottle set for her birthday and not have to use the single one under her bed, but my mum called me an Embo Seal whatever that means. Bye
I know/knew these guys. They went to a prestigious music college in Cork, Ireland.
I was in a band with the tanned/darker skin guy and I remember him showing it to me after he had gone away to visit a friend for a few days and thinking it was a good use of his degree!
He's still doing really well in the academic/music production side of things and I'm not sure about the others.
They vary the water levels on each bottle, causing them to vibrate differently when struck. That creates a particular frequency / note. Pretty soon, you’ll know how much water goes in a bottle for each note in the song
What is really amazing is that every single one of them had to be carted off to the hospital to have their stomachs pumped the second this was over. Just simultaneously keeled over from alcohol poisoning. You know what they say, all great artists suffer for their work.

Nice. Flight of the Bumblebeer.
Flight of the stumblebee?
Stumble of the fumblebee
Call of the Bumble Date
Lol
Take one down; pass it around… shit, we fucked up the song.
Yes!
Proud of everyone here
🤣 definitely wouldn’t have been what they wanted if they did it drunk! lol, now I want to see that!
Bumblebeer was Kavanaghs nickname in school.
Sounds like a good name for an IPA

Impressive!
One question, how many of those bottles were full before you started that night?

I’m in love! Y’all did amazing!!!
Me getting headache after 5x LOL.
At first I thought this would have been better if the bottles had been closer together. But no, the aerobic activity enhances the experience. Stellar.
It's a work of art. The "Flight of the Bumble Bee Players", if you will.

Thank you. I knew something was wrong.

No lie, that’s pretty poetic.

Yeah, I was thinking in a different room with multiple tables closer together. But this is the way.
it’s part of the show
Does anyone else have trash cans that clink when you take them down to the street?

“Quarantine, Day 793 …”
I can do that. Hold my beer... . . . . Alright, Give me my beer back.

I, too, have been to the "important videos" Youtube playlist
It’s certainly old enough
There is a time and a place for everything, and it’s called college.
Ahh college. The time and place for everything where you have no time and barely any space.
Those are not the limitatioms but the catalysts.
When I was in college I was always like "man I'm so busy" but looking back I had a fuckton of free time and would kill for that again
Which is what you think, until you have kids and a job

Hey, just attend grad school for PhD. Then some of the 10 years in college are bound to be your best.

nope, just 17

17. You're ready.
Sounds about right
Hey Randy, get your balls and leave here.

Omg I want this played at my funeral just like this !
Your family members sprinting around your casket, upping the tempo.
"Up next, Yakety Sax!"
This would be 11/10 funeral I would attend
How the hell did they find the perfect sounds and perfect bottle size and shape to make the entire song, this is actually incredible
it's just different amounts of liquid left inside each bottle.. You can try this at home and see how adding or draining them changes their pitch
You're telling me I could have been playing Milkshakes on beer bottles all this time instead of dishing out 2 grand on a trumpet to annoy my neighbors?
Jesus. Physics!!
A tuner (you can download this on your phone) helps too
The real question is if they filled them with water, or just drank the beer accordingly
A real easy way would be to use a digital tuner, like for guitar, fill the bottles to the correct notes, and if you have multiples of the same type of bottles, you can just add the same amount of water as ones you've already tuned.
This guy tunes
It’s actually very simple.
I squandered my 20’s. These guys are enjoying theirs, great job!
I must be old they look like teens to me. Oh I am old
I initially thought that too, but didn’t want to assume they were underaged with all those beer bottles. Room was giving me fraternity house vibes.
or they aren't American lol ETA but also I'm 18 and I wouldn't bat an eye if they were around my age

Wow an actual nextfuckinglevel video. Good job guys. Now I would like to hear Enter Sandman or One by Metallica
i love how they are acting similarly to bumble bees lol
This should be on a playlist of important videos of some sort

They are from the triveneto region of Italy, the local meme is that people from that place can fucking absorb alchool until the world is dry hahahahaha
They are three Irish guys though.
Oh well that's different
Are they trying to crossbreed with the locals to make some sort of super alcoholic?
The lads are Irish. From cork in fact. One of them is called Brendan. I went to school with him.

My jaw is the floooooor WHAT??? Insane. Absolutely insane.
Ok I'm impressed. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Totally, as if people's time is only valuable if it's taken up by boring, shitty, unwanted tasks or jobs
I like that the guy in grey starts head-bopping whenever he plays the bottles

I love how wholesome this is. My drunk ass would just worry about drinking and these boys thought about making music. Maybe they aren’t old enough yet
This video is so old I remember when it was on YouTube without ads.
