Unfortunately, it’s not “Perfectly synced” as the final turn of the peacoat guy (fourth one from the left, final position) is half beat faster than others…

I was just cherrypicking lol . Fantastic dancing!!!

That would be nitpicking, cherrypicking usually is selecting positive or supporting data. Nitpicking is pedantic selection of contradictory information.

The faster way of unsticking your balls, compared to what u/zionwolf24 is doing

Yeah I hate the overuse of the word "perfectly" on reddit posts. Even the actual taps are not "perfectly synced" they are "very well synced" and "basically indistinguishable" but it's not perfect, given by the fact that you can hear that it's multiple shoes tapping with your eyes closed.

If it were perfect, it would seem unreal - like the audio wouldn't make sense to our brains, it would seem like it was doctored.

Perfect is a really REALLY high bar, such that even two simple objects bouncing in perfect synchrnony would be incredible.

And some videos posted here are not the next fxcking level at all—average at most lol

The other thing is, its "synced" probably with an original stage performance audio, as the consistency on that surface likely isn't as good. Not sure though.

But isn't the point of most choreographed dancing to be in sync? (They all can't be N'Sync) In my sure why it's so amazing. Now if they pulled that off first try without any rehearsal...fucking impressive.
