Re: when tapping goes horribly wrong

that's incredible...

How on EARTH could you go 87.7 tps at anything. Imagine that going so fast that you could burst into flames?

Re: when tapping goes horribly wrong

tl;dr

Suddenly, Valencia suffered a dislocated tap - a very dangerous event in which the metal tap on his shoe gives way and unhooks - like a flat tire at high speed. At 81 taps per second, Valencia's shoe, now without the protection of a metal tap, caught fire and exploded in a spectacular tap explosion. As the horrified audience watched, Valencia plummeted off the tower to his death, in a ball of angry flames.

O_O;

Let's put this more into a comparable perspective. 87.7 x 60 = 5262.

That means:

2631 BPM 8th notes.
1754 BPM 12th notes.
1315.5 BPM 16th notes.
877 BPM 24th notes.
657.75 BPM 32nd notes.
438.5 BPM 48th notes.
328.875 BPM 64th notes.
109.625 BPM 192nd notes.

...

109.625 BPM 192nd notes.

WHAT!? JESUS.

He burst into flames?! That's crazy. lol I didn't think that was possible. Too bad he died, though. He could have probably been the first person to FC vrofl with his foot, or something.

EDIT: My head just imploded by reading Halogen's post.

Why did he have to be up high on a platform?

Re: when tapping goes horribly wrong

"how future generations of speed tappers may avoid this tragic death."

Re: when tapping goes horribly wrong

FC vrofl

200 bpm 32nd quads = only 27 tps

87.7 tps would be comboing that song on about 3x rate

Also yeah he could've just not performed on a high platform lol
