Just FYI, I know this guy and he not only knows his drinks and an awesome flair bartender, just like all the guys at Carnaval Court, but these guys put out that much energy and keeps going like this at least 8 hours a day 5 days a week. I got nothing but respect for most of these guys.
wouter faes most bar tenders are part time to avoid full benefits, anything over 40 hours a week has to be full time hence most restaurant stuff and bar tenders work 40 hours a week.
tbh its a showboy ... i believe he already gets payed just to be a circus act and put all the real talent behind a look like shit .. but oke , you might like to wait 10 minutes to get a really bad cocktail because he is trowing shit everywhere
All these people going to watch flair bartending videos, just to complain about "just give me my drink already." We get it. The joke has been made plenty of times.. You are watching a video on flair bartending. That means you're going to see flair bartending. That's like despising rap, watching an Eminem music video, and complaining about how terrible rap is.. Just don't waste your time.
Been looking for such a video for a long time Both flair AND fast delivery Funny tricks wich makes people laugh +cool tricks that makes them go "WOOW" And he makes the custommers feel special, by making them pour the drinks themselves. Best bartender i've seen to be honest!
As an old craggy ( but of course good-humoured ) bartender myself boy do I hear ya! In the OLD days when I first bartended, ( back in the early 70's ) being REALLY quick and really on top of it made it LOOK like it was flashy. And then this movie 'Cocktail' came out and created monsters. The only time I flipped anything like someone in a circus is when there are just a handful of customers and it's good for a laugh now and then. Leave the dog and pony show for the dogs and the ponies!
Nope, he would make your martini faster than any average bartender, the moves he doing actually speeds up the mixing of drinks especially at a busy bar like that with multiple mixed drinks orders coming in at once
Remember, this is in Vegas (the place with all the shows) and he makes a show out of giving you your drink. Flair bartenders will get 6 orders for beers and pop them all in less than 2 seconds. If I go to Vegas, I don't care how long it takes for me to get my drink if it looks like this.
Everyone complaining to make the fucking drink, I'm sure there's a bar around the corner you can go to. I'm sure everyone that went there expects a show, it's Vegas :)
Flippy is the BEST flair bartender in the WORLD..he is second to NONE!!!!! Wish he could teach me to step my game game up!!!! Just amazing!!!!!!! Hats of to ya sir!!!!!!!!!
Timothy Morris (flippy) is my great uncle Zach Tomsik is my biologic dad he ruin my relationship with my dad. No thanks to him I ll be grown up with out my dad in my life . He enjoy mocking me on his social media account showing pictures of my dad known that I wanted to be with my dad. He wanted my dad all to himself too. He didn’t want me to have a relationship with my dad . My dad won’t give me the day of day or even tell me he loves me or spend time with me he surly will him. Timothy doesn’t care who he hurts . 😢 Don’t allow my great uncle to fool you
DenshoGiallo mostly agree. While I see the hard work and practice that goes into flair I just believe more in making a great cocktail and can confidently say I'll make better cocktails ten out of ten times against this guy.
As a bartender here in Vegas I c they don't really measure n those are money worth drinks.... respect......... as for myself when you bartend in Vegas you have to be fast on your feet and very efficient and never break character with a smile and great personality throughout your shift, I can pop out 12 mixed drinks, barista drinks, take food orders, phone orders, make server's drinks, be their bank cash my guest out bring their food out be my own bar back and do to-go orders as we'll without breaking character its not a easy job but he makes it looks easy and is very talented.... trust me it's a very hard job only a few can really handle
Flairing does not make you a good bartender. He do have skills but i dont think the drinks are something to compare to a well done drink. If you are a bartender and reading this and been working for a better bar and with real cocktails then you know what im talking about. I cant flair like him and i dont want to flair. But i do some world class drinks.
World class cocktail wouldn't be matter compared to the ones can flair. There are two bartenders *Flairtender *Mixology And mixology boring as fk, no entertainment no anything
100% agree, coming from a cocktail bartender the consumer is more interested in the actual drink being made to perfection and not watching a circus act with a crazy messy man with money stuck to his head to remind everyone to give him money, but it is vegas after all
ciaranac I know quite a bit about the bar and club industry. And I will say that a good portion of people could care less what their drink taste like so long as it is somewhat palatable and strong. Now if you were to be working a high end bar then I would agree that the people that are frequenting that place are a whole other mix of customers who are more than happy to pay premium prices for a premium cocktail. There is a reason that place like Vegas have flair bartenders working that particular bar and it is because the people there are just wanting to go there get drunk and have fun and that is exactly the atmosphere they create. It takes just as much skill to learn to do flair bartending as it does to become a mixologist. Both are talented, but are catering to two different crowds. So it is completely ridiculous if either were to criticize the other as it is truly relative to which consumer you're trying to go to your bar.
I run my own cocktail bar and it seriously matters to my customers what the drinks taste like. The correct glasses, garnish, presentation etc. From a clubs perspective, you could feed half of them petrol, so I see your point there, but in the end its all about the setting you work in
yeah but this ain't a cocktailbar, flairing is about entertaining in a high energy occasion, it has nothing with drink quality to do, it's about spreading joy, energy and entertainment to your guests.
ciaranac What you just said is what I pretty much said in my previous comment (Not sure if you read my full comment or not, but if not go back and read it and I think you'll see that we're on the same page). Typically cocktail bars and something like a private casino lounge are catering for the most part to people in their mid to late 20's all the way up to their 40's and who in general have more disposable income and are more then willing to pay a premium price for a premium drink made by someone like a mixologist. However on the other end of things there are places like the local sports bar or places like a casino bar where the people there are just looking for the strongest drink possible that is somewhat palatable. They don't care whether you're making their drink with McCormick vodka or Ciroc. And... They would much rather have a flair bartender who entertains them and creates an overall fun and energetic atmosphere over a mixologist who would no doubt make a better tasting drink. But to say that one is superior to the other is just plain silly, as it is subjective depending upon the customer you are targeting. As I previously said, both a mixologist (And I'm referring to the mixologist out there that are making a drink that requires 16 different ingredients, not the average bartender making a Cape Cod) and a flair bartender require skill, but with that said it is much easier to learn mixology than it is to learn flair bartending or at least to be able to flair as well as someone like Alexander Shtifanov. So there is no need for Ricardo Vargas to get on here and insult another style of bartending like he is superior to them.
Contrary to all the alcoholics who just want to get wasted, some people actually admire and appreciate the showmanship when they go out for a drink… And it definitely boosts the tip more than just makin a drink in two seconds and giving it to you.
I'd propably be as fast with a search engine to mix these drinks. Great show though, I'd buy a pint just to see how many times he had to shake the bottle to get the cap open. :D
Maybe not the fastest but definatly the most entertaining. And that part were the lady tosses back the four tins and they fall over the guy, funny I kinda want to see what happend next, It lookes like both the guys got mad.
Logically, if you think about the time it takes to ask a customer what they want, the time it takes them to figure it out, pick up your bottles, put down your bottles, the time it takes for them to get money from their wallet/purse, give you the money, and put the money in a till, there's more than enough split-seconds (minutes even) to kick out routines without slowing down your service at all, this guy just has it down so hard he can do it without thinking.
I've talked to the bartenders at that outdoor bar. It's located in between the former Imperial Palace and Harrah's. They fly these guy in all over the world and it's the highest paying bartending gig there is is what he told me.
I haven't seen a comment about the dollar taped to his head yet
It’s actually a 5 but ok
It’s not tape, it’s sweat that keeps it there
His first tip money
Just FYI, I know this guy and he not only knows his drinks and an awesome flair bartender, just like all the guys at Carnaval Court, but these guys put out that much energy and keeps going like this at least 8 hours a day 5 days a week. I got nothing but respect for most of these guys.
8 hourse and 5 days a week .. sounds like real bartender ..... not really
wouter faes most bar tenders are part time to avoid full benefits, anything over 40 hours a week has to be full time hence most restaurant stuff and bar tenders work 40 hours a week.
wouter faes you sound like an idiot who never step behind a bar , that the perfect bartender over there you just full of hate .
Here's a man who loves his job!
this guy looks like hes straight outta 1998
I bartended through college and I'll tell you the way that guy does that shit is every bartenders dream.
Why did she throw all those shakers at him at the end? That was rude
those guys looked so pissed.
John Northrup Yea, I would be too. They try and let her participate and have fun and then she goes and does some stupid shit like that.
If you watch again just before she throws the shakers, he signals her to throw them across. He wasn't suppose to catch them.
anthony adolphe I think he might have meant "ok you're done, please pass them back nicely" not throw them at my face.
i think he told her to and that was part of his act. he dropped them on purpose
The guys face expressions go perfect with his skills.
legend has it she still feels dumb for throwing those cups 😂
I can't imagine how much alcohol that places loses with him working. talent though.
These guys better get tipped big!
These gentlemen live on their tips
tbh its a showboy ... i believe he already gets payed just to be a circus act and put all the real talent behind a look like shit .. but oke , you might like to wait 10 minutes to get a really bad cocktail because he is trowing shit everywhere
All these people going to watch flair bartending videos, just to complain about "just give me my drink already."

Stfu idiot
Rocket By Hitler 😂😂😂
@@poopityscoop2604 wow, real mature.
The straw part was funny hahah
As a bartender myself, I admire this guy! I couldn't even dream of doing that, not in by bar anyway...
this is not bartending this is a circus show .. a real bartender does not ever have the time to those trics and leave the customers waiting ...
Been looking for such a video for a long time
Both flair AND fast delivery
Funny tricks wich makes people laugh +cool tricks that makes them go "WOOW"
And he makes the custommers feel special, by making them pour the drinks themselves.
Best bartender i've seen to be honest!
As an old craggy ( but of course good-humoured ) bartender myself boy do I hear ya!

WHY is there money stuck to his head. And more importantly, how the crap does he make it stick.
sweat n' alcohol
Some people don't know how to tip..
TheCompute101 if you look closely it’s tape
Worlds fastest? It took him fucking ages to serve one drink!
haha exactly what i was thinking give my damn drink already lol
Took me 2 hours to get a martini
and you actually ordered a bottled beer...
No it was just a Red Bull
Nope, he would make your martini faster than any average bartender, the moves he doing actually speeds up the mixing of drinks especially at a busy bar like that with multiple mixed drinks orders coming in at once
Remember, this is in Vegas (the place with all the shows) and he makes a show out of giving you your drink. Flair bartenders will get 6 orders for beers and pop them all in less than 2 seconds. If I go to Vegas, I don't care how long it takes for me to get my drink if it looks like this.
He still can't beat ALEXANDER ..
alexander shtifanov rules!
alex is a joke he an do only two tins and a bottle,ohh btw that bacardi vid is a professional shooting unlike this ACTUAL shooting.
Everyone complaining to make the fucking drink, I'm sure there's a bar around the corner you can go to. I'm sure everyone that went there expects a show, it's Vegas :)
I just want my beer
for the first 30 seconds I thought that 5$ on his head was a comb over
This is what u get when somenone enjoy his work, a good and entertaining show! amazing man ty fo sharing this
Stop fucking around, just give me a drink.
You are completely missing the point. This is live entertainment mixed with drink service.
shitfaced1337 Juggling is not entertainment. This isn't the 17th century lol.
jim jimjim it got you to watch the video. It's not the 17th century after all. lol.
shykittyfool Imagine been at that bar, with loads of people waiting to be served, and this clown spends 5 minutes making a drink lol.
Jimjimjim, The whole point is if you prefer drinks to entertain than GO TO ANOTHER FUCKING BAR lol and don't interrupt the show for the rest of us
At 2:55 I the only one wondering why he would ask her to throw the tins back if he was just gonna get mad ?? lol
+Milton Luis same here, he asked and she delivered :D :D
Pretending to be mad - it's all for the comedy
Great,awesome, Tim "Flippy" Morris, ladies and gent..
the best trick I have ever seen a bartender do was he totally just made my drink and didnt waste my time.
What the fuck am i still doing in norway?!
Norway is cool. You guys have Ylvis.
fair point :p
i didnt know maynard james keenan was a bartender in his spare time.
austenslost huh who?
johnbfrommd lead singer for Tool/A Perfect Circle
He owns a wine company
Lmao when she threw all those shakers at him. Like what the hell was she thinking.
Flippy is the BEST flair bartender in the WORLD..he is second to NONE!!!!! Wish he could teach me to step my game game up!!!! Just amazing!!!!!!! Hats of to ya sir!!!!!!!!!
As a bartender myself I've always said I'll put effort into learning to flair once I have every cocktail ever invented committed to memory.
Timothy Morris (flippy) is my great uncle Zach Tomsik is my biologic dad he ruin my relationship with my dad. No thanks to him I ll be grown up with out my dad in my life . He enjoy mocking me on his social media account showing pictures of my dad known that I wanted to be with my dad. He wanted my dad all to himself too. He didn’t want me to have a relationship with my dad . My dad won’t give me the day of day or even tell me he loves me or spend time with me he surly will him. Timothy doesn’t care who he hurts . 😢 Don’t allow my great uncle to fool you
love it!! dont no why anyone would hate on this guy!! when your at the bar, half drunk, and this legend serves you a drink id be stoked
That is only possible with passion for his work. Not money or anything else. RESPECT
This is circus juggling, not bartending.
Acctualy, its called flairing. :)
PUDDI PUDDI Not, thats called WASTAGE GALOUR

he enjoy his work so much even being just a bar tender ...he works..he entertain..he makes peoples happy..
2:56 i wonder what happened there.
yeahh his face was priceless lol whats up with the licked dollar on that guys forehead cx
lol... obviously purposely missed to make it funny.
He probably had the barback wash them... And got back to bartending.
Just casual 70's porn music in the background
dayummm flippy with the spectacles! been on a flippy binge and this is my first time seeing him wear em🥺
I wouldn't say the fastest, but definitely the coolest and most stylish.
2:57 She must have felt so f*cking dumb throwing those drinks and recieving that reaction :) haha
You haters are all jealous, I love it.
well now this is part of my bucket list to see go to this bar and get drinks
thanks, now i have a fizzed up beer.
sigh wtf is the purpose of that, just make my fucking drink
tips that's what
Oh, hey there Rosie O'Donnell. Still fat and still a bitch, huh? Nice.
IAmGunzNoob Because it's bad ass
Sounds like you don't know how to have a good time.
2:55
That's Las Vegas grandpa, show must go on...
Man i can do that, here hold my beer, NO WAIT!, give me my beer and yours too.
Flairing does not make you a good bartender.

World class cocktail wouldn't be matter compared to the ones can flair.
There are two bartenders
*Flairtender
*Mixology
And mixology boring as fk, no entertainment no anything
Just give me my damn drink
It would be hilarious if someone yelled, "Hey man, can I just get my fuckin drink?"
i once served 300cocktails in a busy night alone. From 9pm till 1am. trust me flairing was the last thing I was thinking about.

flair bartending is for clowns and jokers, the best bartending is the elegant mixology...

I could watch this guy forever
That spot at Harrah's is super fun. If you go at night the bartenders kill it.
Contrary to all the alcoholics who just want to get wasted, some people actually admire and appreciate the showmanship when they go out for a drink… And it definitely boosts the tip more than just makin a drink in two seconds and giving it to you.
i wouldn't say "fastest" but most entertaining bartender
That intro reminded me of "Prestige Worldwide, wide, wide, wide."
Absolutely right. He wanted her to throw stacks and then a stupid reaction because she doesn't know. What a jerk!
absolutely right, and that's what Vegas is really all about.
So…… May I PLEASE have my drink!!!!!!!
the whole spinning round and serving drinks super quick thing really doesn't apply when I just want a pint of Guinness lol
Don't know about fast but what a showman! I want to visit this bar just to see this guy in his work.
best part was the chick throwing the cups at him, like wtf hahaha
I liked that cup throwing trick lol;)
"Um yes Please..............Could I get a beer?
One could make the argument that this gentleman knows his shizzle.
You can tell he's having fun with his job
I'm a busboy at a bar, and i HATE it whenever bartenders try shit like this. They always end up breaking shit and making a mess!
I thought it was a funky haircut at first, but I sure as hell wouldn't mind if dollars would grow out of my head, just like that. :D
THis guy's probably one of the best show bartenders in the world, but he takes forever to make the actual drinks.
I'd propably be as fast with a search engine to mix these drinks. Great show though, I'd buy a pint just to see how many times he had to shake the bottle to get the cap open. :D
He's serious.. I like the way he acts.. wow.
Yeah, If I can have my beer now .. that would be great.
Awesome! you get a drink and a show!
He must be so disappointed when someone orders a beer.
I don't understand why there is so much flaming against this bartender. He's clearly talented.
I thought that at first glance, but if you watch again, he motioned for her to do it. He was just clowning around and play acting. :)
Awesome seeing someone who clearly loves their job!
i cant believe that lady threw all those cups at the whistle dude wtf
Maybe not the fastest but definatly the most entertaining. And that part were the lady tosses back the four tins and they fall over the guy, funny I kinda want to see what happend next, It lookes like both the guys got mad.
That was in response to the bartender being angry because the girls threw the drinks at him. lol
If i put this guy's shirt in my tank i can go to mexico.
if anybody did that to me I'd say "no dude, it's fine... just give me the drink"
I think he had really cool ideas for pouring the drinks like the sleeping baby and other stuff.
i can just sit there and watch bartenders do their thing for hours lol
I Like how a lady throws the cup at one at the Bartenders And He was like Bitch What you throw at me.Lol
Yeah, sir, that's very cool. Will you just make my drink, please?
Watching this is like a parent watch their infant doing a handstand on a tightrope over Jimmy savilles grave
Logically, if you think about the time it takes to ask a customer what they want, the time it takes them to figure it out, pick up your bottles, put down your bottles, the time it takes for them to get money from their wallet/purse, give you the money, and put the money in a till, there's more than enough split-seconds (minutes even) to kick out routines without slowing down your service at all, this guy just has it down so hard he can do it without thinking.
2:55 It's funny how mad they got, after looking like the happiest people in the world for an hour straight.
My thoughts exactly. I bet I'd pour a whisky way faster than this guy.
My boss would kill me if I spilled that much liquor!
That's not fast service, that's paying someone to play with your breakfast before you drink it!
I've talked to the bartenders at that outdoor bar. It's located in between the former Imperial Palace and Harrah's. They fly these guy in all over the world and it's the highest paying bartending gig there is is what he told me.
