      can't find it on youtube, but in the David Lee Roth video for the Sinatra cover of That's Life, Steve Vai fails at a guitar spin too.

          Yes, I guess everyone who tries it fails once in a while, here's Alexi Laiho:

          But it seemed to work better back in the day he still used Jacksons.

Dont understand why people think they need a gimmick to entertain, if you NEED a gimmick to entertain, then your routine just sucks to begin with. Fix the problem, dont cover it up with ignorant crap.

              I love how the guy looked like he was about to cry, what did he expect?

                I did that once back in the '80s after seeing Yngwie and the guy from Cinderella do it. It didn't fail me, because I had a DiMarzio Cliplock strap!

                  Ever see the footage of Juan Croucier from Ratt doing this with his bass? Came flying off, went up into the air and over the drum kit.

                    I did it once with my Warrior. The upper pointy horn violated my asshole on the way around. I have had to shit leaning to one side ever since. - Lou

                      I've been playing 18 years and can honestly say I've never tried that one single time. I did think about it once. Once. But didn't follow through.

                          I am guilty of trying that as well back in '86. I had strap locks, that wasn't the problem. The miscalculation of the ceiling height however was the the problem. Stuck that strat right through the drywall. I was just brilliant! Damn it was fun to be 15.

                            Now, who else do I know that "uses" a Warrior? Oh yeah...

                              LOL I did it in my high school gym class after someone asked me to. I figured why not, there's plenty of room!

                                ROFL. Showing off usually ends up making you look bad IMHO.
