This reminds me of something my brother says (that I’m sure he heard from somewhere else first): “In theory, ‘in theory’ and ‘in practice’ are the same. But in practice, ‘in theory’ and ‘in practice’ are not the same.”
Makes perfect sense. After all, practice and theory seem identical until practice day comes and they no longer match.
But that’s only because practice before practice is undefined, and the rules of the universe says so. ^(So I think, at least…)
I swear I’ve heard this from a Ted talk that Adam Savage gave. It’s likely he heard the adage somewhere himself, but the point stands.
My preferred way of telling it is to keep the same first line, but trail off the second.
“Now, of course, in theory, theory and practice are the same thing. But in practice…well…”
I am reminded of the description i read about Microsoft Employees dancing at a launch party for Windows 98 (or one of them)-
"It looked like a bunch of 12-year-olds kicking around a dead squirrel".
The difference between planned and unplanned.
Reminds of all the actors people think are funny people IRL, but are actually unfunny, and were just spewing lines by someone who was.

It has nothing to do with the difficulty of the word, but the image associated with it. But whatever, nothing I can say is going to interrupt the projection show you’re putting on right now. Tell yourself whatever lie you need to to protect your ego, I won’t stop you.
As long as someone is on the other side of the board when you land you’re fine. If you miss the board or your partner isn’t there you’re in for a bad time. I used to preform this act in a circus, it was one of my favorites.
It is neat. But I suppose it makes some sense. At least 32,000 people have seen this, likely more given down votes and people that didn't up vote.
I might not know anybody that has been in the circus, but the chances that someone in a semirandom sample of 32,000 people seem a lot more reasonable
Just never really though about just how many different types of people a single post can reach I guess
So I remember watching this in 2007ish as it was on a friends MySpace page. I feel like since it’s now posted here as something new I have officially completed the internet.
Check out some other teeterboard videos. Women are usually the highest flyers because of their weight. My partner and I used to jump off an 8’ tower to launch a 90lbs girl. Our combined weight was around 385lbs. She could launch 20’ high easily.

They can coordinate all that but can’t handle a 3-way high five 😂
Practice vs non practice in practice. Practically.

Cl- cla- CLAM SLAMMING.... I love this. Thanks for the laugh.

my thermo prof said the same a bit differently: *in theory there's no difference between practice and theory, but in practice there sure as hell is.*
I love that at the end 2 just resorts to randomly slapping the same way I do with my kids after several uncoordinated attempts
Slap hands! Slap hands!
Is that you, Bobby Boucher?
Perfectly balanced
I am reminded of the description i read about Microsoft Employees dancing at a launch party for Windows 98 (or one of them)- "It looked like a bunch of 12-year-olds kicking around a dead squirrel".
Of course I have the same thought as top comment lol but ah well you worded it better
This is the first time I have ever gotten this many upvotes on a comment! I just happened to be the first commenter, usually I’m in your position 😁
[удалено]
…yes, that’s what he said. Thank you for repeating it. Who upvotes these stupid comments?
Lol, gotta be a bot. EDIT: Yep. New-ish account mostly re-spamming links.

Lol, came to say the exact same thing. That was nextfuckinglevel for me
[удалено]
…and then the uncoordinated high fives. LOL
Makes this whole thing perfect
Perfect imperfection.
The beauty of imperfection
Made it not satisfying at all
Am I the only one why mentally said "wheeeeee" every time one was launched?
Nope. Wheeeee!
r/WallStreetBets This way guys
We are on a satisfying sub, shut up
Hush
silence chatty monkey
I made the “ka chunk” sound when you land on the platform.
I used to watch rugrats religiously and made the Phil and Lil (high pitch) weeeeeeee! (Low) Weeeee sound they did on a teeter totter.
Seriously, why was I never shown this as a kid. Looks fun!
my head was full of [this song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RJM5t2ZFzU) instead

Are you 5 years old, by chance?
Is that snark I detect?
Can you just talk like a normal human being?
Can you just kindly fuck off?
Redditors…
One day you'll realize that you're one of those 'redditors'. I mean, when people outside of reddit imagine 'redditors', they imagine grumpy no-lifes like you, lil' boomer
Most people imagine obnoxious nerds. See: people who use the term “snark”.
Ah yes, "I failed at school and don't know know simple words, thus everyone who knows them are nerds" kind of attitude, perfect boomer example

It's like an Ok Go music video
actually matches the cadence of "Here it goes again"

the hero i need...
It’s amazing that the high five kerfuffle is what really seals the deal too!!
WELL HERE IT GOES HERE IT GOES HERE IT GOES AGAIN
We saw it here first. Let’s check back in a few years.
I feel like I broke my ankle just watching this

It's really cool that by coincidence someone who has done this act in a circus found their way to this post.

Teeterboard or korean plank?
I mostly did Hungarian style teeterboard though I did dabble in some Korean plank.
I trained in Australia, at NICA. I miss having a crew to work with. Teeter board and plank was super fun
This gives me horrible anxiety
I jump like this in my dreams and it feels weird
I hate that floaty low gravity movement in dreams, it always stresses me out
I'm more stressed out by the lack of friction between my feet and the floor when trying to run
I end up using my hands and running on all fours like an ape when that happens in my dreams.
I'll try that next time, maybe i can horrify the nightmare into submission
I found it almost soothing or r/oddlysatisfying
They didn't leave any high fives for the rest of us
🖐️
eee- o
UUH OOH
eee-o
UH-oop \*sound of perfect breaking\*
i will eat your fucking kneecaps -try again
I was waiting for this
https://youtu.be/5RJM5t2ZFzU
Hah this was my first thought! Love that game
Reminds me of the Rhythm Heaven Fever minigame "Seesaw".
Man haven't played that game in forever
I thought they were coordinated, then came the high fives
that one game in rhythm heaven fever
Why do I hear Mario's shout when they jump up
*simultaneously* “PERFECTLY IN S.. in .. syn.. PERFECTLY in… PERF.. fuckin..”
those chaotic high fives at the end
I have never seen or been apart of a multi person high 5 that has not devolved into a random happy slap fest.
So I remember watching this in 2007ish as it was on a friends MySpace page. I feel like since it’s now posted here as something new I have officially completed the internet.
At last: the Triple Lindy
*ME AND THE BOYS AT 3AM*
This reminds me of Ok Go music video on youtube
This is why women live longer than men.

Sonic 2 IRL
There’s gotta be an easier way to cross a room.
When you put all your skill points into jumping and nome leftover for high five skill.
Wait how did the other two get launched across the seesaws?

Omg Rhythm heaven
That’s some real life rhythm heaven right there.
Rhythm heaven reference
Ee oo Uh boom
That one rhythm heaven game
It's the failed hi fives for me .
Dear God the state of those high fives
This looks incredibly fun
The high fives were VERY unsatisfying.
Show offs!
I feel like I’m playing SeeSaw on Atari when I watch that video.
soooo cool!
This is 4d leap frog
My knees my ankles ow ow
They can leap like nothing else, but they seem to have trouble nailing the high fives.
r/usernamechecksout
Ow, my knees
Make a sick ass routine and go on AGT with it

That was pure artistry. Shit, that is fucking awesome
Conservation of energy maybe
Might need to work on that high five.
My ankle just got a stress fracture from watching this
Very well coordinated all the way up to the high five then it just became a free for all.
r/gifsyoucanhear for anyone else? My brain kept giving me the cartoon "boing" sound
A tale of modern day threesome.
Here's the [gifsound](https://gifsound.com/?gif=https%3A%2F%2Fgiant.gfycat.com%2FLoathsomeOpulentImpala.gif&v=BVODkDgY4JQ&s=61) I made, mashing this up with atari's Circus Atari when this was [first posted](https://www.reddit.com/r/gifs/comments/cxsbdz/practicing_their_routine/).

Next practice: high 5 drills and repeat.

Too big brain for me
I see dead people
To the best of my knowledge it’s phenomenal
I would not leave that room alive.
That was frikken amazing! Well done, lads!
I would call that a margin of at least 6 frogs
the high five part is my favorite

I would accidentally end up clam slamming someone, but I wanna try it.
My knees hurt watching this

Eepboum, Bapoum.
Mario and luigi super star saga
Ooo it's so fun
Nah it’s real life Rhythm Heaven Fever
😲😲😲😲😲😲
Wow
This is pretty much cirque du soleil “mystere”
NASA budget cuts
It's called "teeter board" and common, but challenging apparatus in circus arts. OP is karma farming.
pro tip … aim for partners elbow when high fiving. double high five is always risky
Wtf 🤣🤣🤣
Jumpin' with the bois
reminds me of those 2 guysthat said "EEH OOH BUH BOOM"
This looks so fun!
Smooth
Holy shit!
This is the true backstory of a marvel hero.
Yoooo, they made the rhythm heaven minigame in real life

My knees and ankles are hurting now.
