Anyone heard of this kid? I hadnt, and just saw him on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BynUZOJc ... re=related

He is the fastest thing i have ever seen play a guitar, it may sound like shit and too blah blah blah, and it does sound pretty lifeless, but for the sheer speed? Fuck, he his awsome!

Is there a proof he's played all the notes correctly, didn't miss a thing etc. It's hard to hear it with a bare ear on 320 bpm. And after all, this theme doesn't require very much technical skills imo, maybe given enough time for training a lot of people could do it.

That didnt require technical skill, are you serious?!!!

To pick at that speed, that smooth, that fluent, on all the strings takes some serious technical skill. Add to that his left hand, which has to fret the notes equally as fast and fluent at 320bpm, thats more technical than the picking!!

IF, he dropped any notes, i doubt it was more than 2. And at that speed, thats an amazing feat! So to say you dont require technical skill to play that is laughable, IMO!

yes, there is a proof. Judges from Guinness World Records must analyse accuracy of every single note in the performance to proclaim a new record. Saw it on the other video some time ago.
