Even if I learn drums, I won't be able to reach this guy's mental strength. He is one in thousand examples that no limitations can ever prevent you from doing something you love. No words to explain! Thanks to Drumeo for this!
You are right only because you decided to limit yourself. If you put in the time and practice, you can achieve a lot more than you think. If you trained for 10,000 hours, whatever technique it is you practiced, after 10,000 hours, you'd have it mastered that technique.
@@michaelcassady1289 I disagree. No matter how long you do something, what matters is to do it right and work on craft, fixing mistakes and being patient
It’s all in the attitude how you approach things! One arm, bad hands, bad wrists, severe arthritis, wrist nerve damage, getting older, it all factors in how you have to adjust. 💪🏻
Until you measure his double kick's with a metronome for accuracy and realize that dudes like Eric Morotti, Andrew Baird, Marco Pitruzella, Wanja Groger, and Elliott Hoffman exist.
Amazing!!! I had an accident 1 year ago and lost the movement and sensibility of my right arm and i really have had a very bad days. This is and inspiration for me, for my life. I'll try to learn to play the drums. Thanks to share.
Thank you so much. You are honestly a huge inspiration, I've just found you. I used to drum, I had surgery in October 2019 on my neck but it went wrong and my right arm is now paralysed.. Ive not drummed since. This has given me hope and I'm now going to start practising, one armed.
I really liked Metallica and Slipknot, but they were too loud to be played in an apartment. I had to develop an apartment friendly touch for that. I got into jazz to get deep with drums. Then I got back to Rock and Metal with a proper technique and control. Playing Fast and Quiet was my disability. Now I'm proud that I can play a gig, where the audience can easily have a conversation without shouting at each other :)
This is very applicable information for any drummer. I commend this man for not giving up his dream and making the world a better place through inspiring others.
As a right handed drummer I have struggled with my "weak" hand for years. Truly inspired by this, and I love your sense of humor. I am left well armed - puns intended - to drop the right and focus on just playing the left on the kit. Excited to attempt this new challenge at my next practice session. Thank you for sharing this.
My brother just shared a video earlier with the man who has 813 pieces in his kit. World Record drum kit. I sent him this video and said "This is what impresses me!" Godspeed! Thanks for never letting go of your passion, and inspiring the rest of us to keep going no matter what may happen.
Excellent drumming and perseverance to adapt and overcome with a disability. Rick Allen was an inspiration for me and all drummers just like you. Your future will be very bright as it is currently or with the addition of a prosthetic arm, transplanted donor limb, electric drums, acoustic drums, and assorted hardware. My Dad was paralyzed from the waist down and was married with 6 kids, still conceived 4 children after his accident, drove a car with his hands pushing his legs to the pedals, walked upright with with canes and braces, and worked as an engineer. People forgot he was handicapped after he trained and adapted.
When I saw his previous video it was mind blowing not because he has one arm because what he said “ what is your excuse ?” You are such a positive person I love your energy hope you doing great.🔥🔥 really appreciate inspire me 🙏🏼
You are such a great inspiration to someone like me who had a stroke in 2015, so I only have a right hand and right foot to move. I was just starting to play drums before I lost my left arm and left foot movement. I am wanting to learn to play for my church. I have a great friend from Christian band Blood Bought that is helping to follow my dreams in the music world. Thanks for helping my mind think about the most important hits needed without losing to many cymbal hits. I may try to put snare and cymbals all on right side. Ty Rich
I have two (mostly) working arms, and I love using all these techniques myself.Much respect from another fellow drummer. This was awesome and any drummer could learn so much from you and this video 🤘🏻
This is very awesome I have cp so I only have one hand that I can fully use and partial control over my left but I'm subscribed and you rock just started drums
To me, you seem to have a passion in teaching or coaching. I really like your multiple repetitions of how to do things with just one hand or one arm. Bravo !
I remember when Ric Allen lost his arm. He came back with a VENGEANCE! I was blessed to see Def Leppard on The Hysteria Tour. It was EPIC! Those who have been struck by tragedy and yet keep on through it all are the true heroes in my book!
Man Rick is fully respected! He's my inspiration. I'm a two armed drummer who loves play all def leppard tracks. And watching Jack play drums with one arm is just as impressive!
My respect for this man. This is a very smart and thorough approach. A living proof that there's no limitations when you really want to achieve something
honestly thank you for this video , my right shoulder and arm problem has gotten to the point where i cant play or even write and have limited mobility , this has inspired me to re learn only using my left , keep rocking man , you absolutely smash it
Amazing. A very good example of not stopping what you really love to do. Drumming is an art and one have to find a way to continue feeding our souls. Congrats man!
The first thing that popped in my mind was the balance thing he talked about at the end... The rest can all be worked out with cheats or technique but you can't cheat physics! Good job man! That sounded great!!
Now this is why i appreciate RUclips...what a find,you are the Man truly helped make my day seeing you play.i grew up playing and my 8yr old nephew just started taking lessons.im subbing right now.and he will be watching all your videos...hey man Thank You soo much.you kill it!!! also your advice is so clear and consise.great teacher man.GOD BLESS.
You are such an inspiration! Makes me want to go practice! And you've helped me realize that I have been slacking on practice and not playing to my fullest potential. I know a little about having to overcome physical limitations. I was born with cerebral palsy. My feet are both turned out, as well as my right wrist being turned in. CP Basically causes my muscles to be very spastic and overly tight. So I constantly struggle with staying relaxed and using my fingers loosely for taking advantage of stick rebound. I began drumming at 15. (I'm now 37.) It has given me an identity and confidence. It is awesome to be admired and respected for something! I have played in bands my entire drumming life and will continue to play for as long as I physically can. I love what you are doing and your positive attitude! Some great advice you gave on playing to your strengths and not worrying about what you can't do. Keep rocking and hope to see more videos from you! (Shameless plug time) if interested you can check out my playing. ruclips.net/video/sxRfdimna6Q/видео.html
You're an inspiration to me, my dude. I'm a guitar player, who dabbles with my drum kit on occasion. Long story short, after endless problems with drummers, I asked myself a question. Why should other people dictate my goals? So, I've been practicing playing guitar and drums simultaneously, which of course involves a lot of trial and error. I love and respect your never give up on your passion attitude. In the last couple weeks, I've discovered what I call, "the average of sounds". The brain pays attention to pattern and rhythm, so if a snare hit replaces a high hat, so be it. Anyway, I love your spirit. God Bless.
Your attitude is incredible. I've thought about what I'd do as a drummer if I lost a limb and brother, I'd honestly have no idea. Hats off to you dude. You're altogether a great player, super cool dude and a light of inspiration. 🤘
There's no such thing as limitations when it comes to learning. Even I learned a lot just by watching this video. This guy is inspiring, and just goes to show that there's no excuses when you want to become better at whatever it is you want to do in life.
Oh this is so helpful as a soon-to be- beginner drummer in their first lesson who has right side hemiplegia and like yourself Jack who is very left side heavy! I hope I can learn to overcome any challenges that come my way. ❤
Such a great lesson, and such a great drummer. I have so much respect for way that Jack has developed his drumming style to overcome his physical limitations, and yet is able to express his own voice on the drums. It just goes to show how much of drumming is a mental battle as much as a physical one.
You are a brilliant drummer, no doubt. What we see here is the result of a stubborn will of iron and this is what impresses me most. You could easily have given up drumming, everybody would understand but you did not. Respect!
An incredible positive attitude, and as many have said before me, you make a lot of us two handed guys look like absolute beginners!! Absolute inspiration, Jack, respect bro!!
Really cool Thomas, its great to see i'm not the only one who plays with one hand. I start to play I was 6 years old. But one year later a have my accident. So from there I have to learn how Can I play with one hand because giving up was not an option. So now I'm 38 and play still drums. I can tell you the most of your tipps and technics i use this nearly same, because this is the only way to play accustic drums with one hand. Greetings from Switzerland and i hope we see more from you.
Thanks so much for making this video and sharing your tips and tricks! This is really helping be finally be encouraged to finally trying to play my drums again.. I suffered a stroke in 2012 that paralyzed my left side. I was in a wheelchair for about a year then continued to rehab to get out of my brace. Now I’m still working on my left hand and arm. I’ve taken your advice and rearranged my set and cymbals to allow me to get back to practicing and learning to adapt my technique.
Life hands him lemons and he finds a way to adapt so he can continue to play...love it!!! This guy is an awesome drummer and truly an inspiration - well done, Drumeo!
There was also the drummer who met Rick Allen after the accident who helped him, he had one arm. He is mostly unknown... Then there was a guy in the 60s who released a few records who had one arm, too (Victor Moulton of The Barbarians) - and of course the very famous Sandy Nelson lost his right leg shortly after his big drumming hit ‘let there be drums’, but he carried on for another 30 years or so.
Very impressive. I always thought Rick Allen would be not only the first known one armed drummer but the only one. I'm sure he would be impressed if he saw this.
Most people would have quit. This guy is an inspiration for anyone with a physical impairment and also for people without an impairment. If he can do it with one arm, it can definitely be done with two! His spirit and perseverance is incredible! I am truly amazed and inspired!👍😎
I have cerebral palsy so my motor skill with my right arm and slightly my right leg and foot but I all ways wanted to play the drums and this video has given me some motivation
This is awesome you have such a unique approach to the drums and there’s so much to learn from you besides you’re just inspiring man I myself Am a almost blind drummer so I know what it means to sometimes have to think differently about approaching the instrument and how to play and learn it with limits of course not nearly to the extent of you what you do is just amazing And we need more of this
hey man ... i was in a car accident as well.. i got a brain injury from the crash and it effects my left arm, so i cant play guitar any more. any i only have one hand now cause of the nerve damage. But i refuse to stop learning instruments, so im learning the drums with one arm now. this inspires me, thanks "Drumeo"
Have DJD, osteoarthritis etc. 1 hand casted 4 times. A ton of PT. It was driving me insane, playing since 12, now 71. Certainly cannot play 4 mallet vibraphone, timbales or congas. I tried simple 2/3, 2/4, 4/4. I did realize I was using my double bass pedal more as you stated. WOW,what an inspiration for me. The thought of moving cymbals great idea. However, your 1 hand is extremely fast. Kudos, you made my day. I will heal, but then other hand is supposed to be done. May not do it. Sitting straight is difficult as L-5 to S-1(Lumbar) is shot. Thank You so much 👍❤️🇺🇸⭐️✋💪✊
I want a lesson with this cat...can you imagine tying your right arm to your side and playing that way for a week or two...nicely done young man...bravo
Even if I learn drums, I won't be able to reach this guy's mental strength. He is one in thousand examples that no limitations can ever prevent you from doing something you love. No words to explain! Thanks to Drumeo for this!
You're welcome Rudrajit! You're right - Jack's mental fortitude is truly inspirational. :)
Agree. Extreme mental toughness. I'm also very easily distracted.
You are right only because you decided to limit yourself. If you put in the time and practice, you can achieve a lot more than you think.

@@michaelcassady1289 I disagree. No matter how long you do something, what matters is to do it right and work on craft, fixing mistakes and being patient
No limitations can ever prevent you from doing something you love? Well, highly debatable
I can’t even play with two arms.
😂
Must be the curse of the ulrichs
I can barely play with 2!!!
Lol
Ulrich brothers..
This man has a huge amount of talent. He makes me look like a kid who had just learned a simple rock beat
Talent but also a lot of hard work! Use it as inspiration 😊
Why not use triggers like Mr.Allen in Def Leppard?
@@markwilmeth3082 doesn’t need to. He has his own style.
@@Fortunecookielied Has he ever wanted to learn? Or is he to stuck on him self to try it?
@@DrumeoOfficial how do your heads not lose their coating
Even though he has one hand. He doesn’t care. He’s playing better than most drummers
I’ve been an amputee for almost 30 years and had my first drum lessons this week. Hopefully I’ll be able to kill it like you one day 💙
I lost my right arm in 1984. I've always had an interest in drumming. Played around with my nephews kit and finally got my own electronic drums!
@@denisryan8757How’s it worked out ?
I’ve broken my Good right hand. Now I can focus my drums playing how you play, temporarily. Respect man!
It’s all in the attitude how you approach things! One arm, bad hands, bad wrists, severe arthritis, wrist nerve damage, getting older, it all factors in how you have to adjust. 💪🏻
Absolutely!

After playing for about 5 years I got Carpltunnel syndrome in my right wrist!!!
After playing for around 2 years I got carpltunnel. It hurt for a long time before I got help!!!
13:17 such a genius
Amazing!!!
I had an accident 1 year ago and lost the movement and sensibility of my right arm and i really have had a very bad days. This is and inspiration for me, for my life.
I'll try to learn to play the drums.

He's faster and more precise with one arm then a lot of people with 2.
Respect man!
This made so much sense for me, being one handed myself... Why was I afraid of drumming in the first place ?!
Adapting and overcoming is key!
I really liked Metallica and Slipknot, but they were too loud to be played in an apartment. I had to develop an apartment friendly touch for that. I got into jazz to get deep with drums. Then I got back to Rock and Metal with a proper technique and control.
Playing Fast and Quiet was my disability.

Dude has the best posture I've seen. And the faster he plays, the straighter his posture. Jack Thomas you kick ass.
I love his energy and skills, lad is an absolute top geezer
I saw this dude play live when I was at an underground punk show in Vancouver, cool to see him on this channel
Dude your kicks are absolutely crispy clean. Wow

I have 2 arms, yet I suspect this chap has just provided some lessons that will benefit me greatly for a long time to come.
His playing make things easy for mixing since he´s not hitting a cymbal and a drum at the same time. Anyway, he´s truly skilled. Very inspirational.

You are a beast of a man, dude! Your drumming is unbelievable!

Stop w the lemons talk. Nothing negative here!
His favorite rudiment is the single stroke roll & the PaDiddle
God forbid you lose an arm and eat that tasteless joke.
@@riotkiley675 The guy seemed to have a sense of humor himself; maybe he'd get a kick out of the joke. ("kick"... Ha!)
Two words. Rick. Allen.
But this guy is pretty much God-tier tho 💯
Imagine playing def leopard with one arm and no extra pedals
Rick Allen is the reason I picked up sticks! Love def lep!
