Very cool, nice tricks and good fun. It is great to be in such a video with all the others.

Thanks Void for organising and editing, it is a lot of work, but seen the results, I'd say it was worth it :)

rewatched again at home. So I can do some remarks.

Love the creative tricks of TMO.
Also the insane double wingwalker over the valley from Matt.
All the tricks of mreasyguy.
Donald keeping innovating with weird tricks.
Nice ones by the Void, I particularly liked the Stilts / axe / lunar combo.
Cello opening line is just awesome, that's a proper string freak.
Rob, whatever, in his line, we are used to that.
The around the village upside down was hilarious.
I've tried doing kendama while carrying a baby, it is not easy. Kudos!
The case... I thought the gunslingers from past year could not be topped, they proved me wrong.

And everyone else, it really is a very enjoyable video. I love to see many faces.

That was great! Am happy to be a part of a great collaboration. And thanks @The Void for putting it all together!

Wow, the game has been stepped up!

Here were the top 5 highlights for me (in no particular order):
Maico's doubles trick (I'm especially glad that you both went all the way swapping, including down to the last spike!)
Void's stilt to axe transition (that'll be one I'm trying later...)
Milky's  surprise swing in from the cupboard.
Eelco's control on those shuffle aeroplanes still baffles me.
And Donald's lighthouse arm tap back to lighthouse...awesome.

Cheers to Void for pushing everyone to film, submit, and then putting this all together (it is appreciated!).
This was a very entertaining watch, including the winner's video!

I'll see many of you in Almere :)

Yay, it's always a treat when the collaboration comes out, and this one didn't disappoint.  Lots of great stuff from the high skill (several great wingwalker variations in there) to the "special ones" (love the cupboard yank! :) )
Thanks to all who contributed, and well done to the Void for taking the time to put it all together again!

Thanks to everyone who thought that this was worth commenting on. I enjoyed everyone's tricks, and I enjoyed putting it together too.
I probably won't do it again.

Sorry, just got round to watching this.
Matt, you keep blowing my mind. Stop, please, or there will be no mind left! Just kidding, you rock!
Also loving Marcel's opening, great start to a great video.
And one again, thanks Void for editing and creating a video with excellent vibes!

Loved all of it. Again, many thanks to The Void for his yearly drudgery in making this work. And the Yumu in the prize box this year too? We're a lucky bunch!

HIghlights for me:

s070s rainy castle trick
mreasyguy's Wing to Cliff
johndmc's baby, Birds and bears
Rob's ferocious line and the snap decision NOT to try to tack something onto the end of it!
The Void's Stilt/DB/Lunar number

Nice work, everyone!

If DB means Dead Body, then I look forward to seeing that, when I do it! ;) Might try it tonight, actually....
