This video, posted as Daft Hands - Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger, is exactly one year old and has now been viewed over 20 Million times. It took a lot of creativity and coordination to pull off this exhibition of manual dexterity.

Ok, that was cool - and I just spent about an hour looking them all up on MySpace and checking out pics and stuff. The girls are two pre-med students who just did it for fun, and now they are actually in a music video because of it! And they have pics of them with other YouTube stars, too - that was cool to see, starting with Evolution of Dance. I wonder if he was the first real viral online video? Must’ve been …cuz that was two houses ago for me. Like maybe …ok, guess I’m remembering wrong, Judson’s video was in April ‘06. Cool stuff, this interwebby phenom stuff - I’m so digging it!!
Practice, practice, practice and they must have done lots of it. The music video they made it in is Weezer - Pork and Beans. They are featured along with other people from top viewed videos.
There seems to be no end to human whimsey and ingenuity, Kinda like the unknown comic meets sex in the city.
That’s some serious practice to get that hand co-ordination right.
The video is so immature they need to work hard to do it right.
All credit to them, that’s some dedication to get that right for so long.
I can’t see what people find in this video. Nothing special to me.
