First time I've seen those lattice-wall structures—nifty. And the double run through the playing cards in the first vid was charming. These guys are dedicated!

Started slow, then got very impressive. That is some kind of work and dedication.

I'm impressed with the lighting, photography and editing.

Not a single take, though - most of the shots had black dominoes going in and out of the frame, so I think they could have just shot one screenfull at a time, and edited them together. Not to say it isn't a job well done. Certainly more patience than I could possibly muster!

I dunno about you bro but my 1km domino track is always greased up for filming some sweet falling domino action.

My thoughts while watching: 1. Ooooh this is soo cool! 2. My gracious that is a whole lot of dominoes. (Pauses video, prices bulk dominoes on Amazon) 3. Even with re-use, that's a veritable king's ransom in plastic! 4. OMG soooo much plastic--where do they store all that stuff? 5. (Pictures millions of colored plastic dominoes floating in an oceanic gyre) Damn, now I'm having an anxiety attack! 6. Oh but look! Insane domino tricks! Everything is FINE. 7. I need to put down the iPad and go garden for a while.

In these plastic bins.

These are great. I love the clickety sound of toppling rows of domino tiles. But boy do I wish there were some way to turn off the background music.

Utterly impressive, such that halfway through I started trying to figure out if it was actually an impressive CGI rendering or something.

I love the effect where they're kind of slanted then line up when they fall... like this.

Imagine what I could have done as a kid, if my mom had not needed the dining room table for dinner. We could only get 2, 3 hours of domino-ing in before we had to clear it off.
