When your friend asks to copy your homework, but you were gonna copy theirs

*this is the very epitome of "task failed successfully"*

5:00 **elegantly morphs into the correct pose, very discreetly might I add.**

I'm a ballerina and I was actually in tears from laughing so much. The ballerina at 3:57 who kept repeating the circle step made me laugh the most.

*Plot twist: one of them actually made a mistake, but we’ll never know*

To perform well, takes practice. To appear screwed up and have it work, takes talent

1:30 "Is it time to get up yet? No? Ok"

Two things: 1) I am in awe of the core strength of these women as they are carried around in awkward positions. I'm impressed with dancers anyway, but holy crap, the entrance and exit really drives that point home. 2) It takes a special kind of talent to make careful choreography look like a believable "mistake," and a talented choreographer to help plan it all properly.

0:40 when the cops show up to bust the party but ur homegirl is passed out

Slowly... slowly... just adjust... arms... slowly... no one will notice... the mistake waltz is amazing :D

imagine being told you have to do the waltz, but you have to unlearn the rules of the one you know, mess up horribly on purpose, make it look good, and then be folded like a lawn chair in front of an audience lmao

For some reason this is IMO the funniest rendition of the Mistake Waltz on youtube. In other renditions it’s like they’re trying to be funny by acting out their mistakes like they follow a strict choreography, but in this one it really looks like they are making ‘mistakes’

I couldn't stop laughing when that one girl was still moving her arms up and down and up and down all by her self in the back lmao

That one girl slowly making her hand position right in the end had me dying lmfaooo

An astonishing performance by these ballerinas: the strength and athleticism in the Preparation and the Exit are at such a high level. Their elegance and artistry to perform the non-comedic elements of the Dance -- the movement of their hands above their heads, sorry that I don't know the dance term, is beautiful. And their comic timing throughout is excellent. Marvelous performance!

When you don’t plan out your group presentation beforehand

5:08 no one: the ants taking the crumbs away from my floor

When you miss the day you're supposed to learn the choreography and the teacher says "just follow along"

even their bow at the end was them still being in their roles.. too good

Alternative title: "The 9 out of 10 Dentists" waltz.

3:58 That one girl all by herself in the back very accurately represents my coordination skills

At first I thought it was about some weird guys carrying dead corpses.

4:23 THAT TUG 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

In the begining the dudes voice sounds like *"The fitness gram pacer test is a multitask fitness test the gradually get more difficult."* 😂

I love the girl at the back who's like " if I move my hands slowly enough maybe no one will notice"at the part before the men carry them off

The best part of this dance is that if you mess up, it totally works.

4:11 she’s looking around like ‘jeez we’re still doing this move???’ lol

This feels like a professional 1st grade ballet recital

When your choreography gets changed at the last minute.

The choreography of this is even harder than an orderly one!!

there should be more comic ballet like that ...totally artistic in good taste and relaxing

I can't imagine having the core strength these ballerinas possess to maintain their pose while getting carted around by the gentlemen. Holy geez.

Unpopular opinion: Sometimes KZfaq recommendations are good?

Do you think they ever...got in trouble in rehersals for...messing up their mess ups?

Can we take a sec to appreciate how strong ballet dancers cores are

That was flawless. It's so hard to dance outside the harmony ... a bit like trying to deliberately sing off-key.

*_*flashbacks to that one time I tripped on stage during The Nutcracker*_*

5:23 my guy just folded her like a compact chair

I just love how they just pick up the girls like their toys and the way the girls keep the pose as they get carried away 😂😂😂

I love how even though they’re purposely messing up you can still tell everyone’s immensely talented.

These guys are taking the phrase 'being treated like an object' to a whole new level lmao

anyone else here who doesn’t do ballet or dancing or anything like that but just got this in their recommendations for some god forsaken reason i mean i’m not complaining

3:58 okay, but why is she literally me? 😂

It must be soo hard to make mistakes that look unintentional. Like, not being sinchronized while dancing and having someone do something entirely different while everyone is doing one thing. I would be very confused xd

how you feel after missing one rehearsal

“Mistake waltz” I think that was my parents walking home from the hospital with me

I'm getting the notion that someone came up with the idea while watching dancers rehearse and noticed all the mistakes being made and figured there was something in it. Now that is creative genius.

So glad this came up in my recommendations. Of all the versions of the Mistake Waltz, this is the very best version. Well done to all.

Why am I sitting in bed watching ballet at 2 in the morning?

No one: Not a single person; KZfaq: WATCH THIS WALTZ VIDEO UPLOADED 6 YEARS AGO IT WILL BE A HOOT OF A TIME EVEN THO YOU HAVE NEVER EXPRESSED INTERESTS IN WALTZ BEFORE YOUR GONNA WATCH THIS DAMN IT

Never thought that there was an art to being absolutely manhandled

0:52 everyone carrying the girls in a normal within reason way and then this guy looks like he’s about to use her body to try open a gate by using her head as the log they use in beauty and the beast cartoon version 😂

0:40-1:00 my parents trying to get me and my siblings downstairs and ready for school in the morning

damn they really made a waltz for the entire state of mississippi

I like how at 3:08 the two girls at the front just stare at each other like: “wait do we have to move our arms up or down?” “I’unno,let’s just continue”

4:29 No one: Not a single soul: My mind: Head, shoulders knees and toes, (knees and toes)

I had a good laugh, especially 5:01 when the ballerina in the back left slowly fixes her mistake... lol

This has such a chaotic energy to it

3:19 my friend wake me up when class over

I don't know how many times I've watched the Mistake Waltz🤣and the girl at the end slowly moving her hand in the right position still has me dying😂

Sis really looked over and did the walk of shame and honestly? Same.

This is just TOO adorable! The choreographer is a genius. I love the message: We can laugh at our mistakes. Don't take it too seriously! :)

The way those guys carried them like lifting a feather

Finally, an accurate depiction of how my brain processes information

I wish everytime I get mistakes, people will just laugh and clap at me 😂

2:08 *dejectedly walks back to place* Also this choreography is impressive. Still looks good with the mistakes.

This is truly artisan level of dance. It takes real talent to be able to act as if you keep making mistakes yet stay completely graceful through all of it.

My kids laughed so hard at this 😂 what a lovely and fun dance, thank you for sharing this with the world!

And welcome to another episode of What is my KZfaq recommendation anymore?

I love how at the end of the dance that one girl was like if I move my arms slow enough no one will notice I made a mistake😂😂😂

5:09 “They’re definitely deffective! Back to the factory!”

The ideology of “performing mistakes” is delivered WONDERFULLY here. Even if they DID mess up here and there, you can’t tell! So much talent!

i love this because if you would actually make a mistake no one would know

Oh, so this is how our local dance school's recitals must've looked like to the audience.

I watched a more recent performance of Mistake Walz and I have to say, no matter what time the performance has done, it stays iconic. XD

My brain cells during the first day of nutcracker rehearsals:

MAN THOSE ABS MUST BE STRONG!

That was amazing and very, very entertaining. Must have been a nightmare to choreograph. Well done to all involved.

What it feels like when u miss one day and suddenly there’s 40 more parts 💀💀

Now if that wasn't the most refreshing performing arts I've ever seen...

4:00 there’s always that one dancer lmao 😂 *cough cough* me

Probably they were so perfect that they had to learn how to mess up.

Wow, that would be so difficult to dance! It's amazing that even though it was "mistakes," the ballerinas still looked so light and graceful!

3:50 tfw you feel like your work is very similar to your idol's work so you change it then notice that it starts getting very similar to another person's work

the mistake waltz is amazinggggg and this must be so hard for the dancers who are so used to being so in sync, to just mess up on purpose but look so confused and utterly lost. it beautiful and comedic and anyone can get a kick out of this cx

4:00 When you absent for one day.

Not gonna lie, the beginning and end look really fun! I mean, being carried around by handsome men? Yes please! Plus, you gotta admire the talent and effort of these ballerinas, as it's one thing to execute plans perfectly, it's another to make something look bad on purpose, while making it seem unintentional. Also, I just admire the humanity of it. It makes the ballerinas feel more human, as I feel like sometimes we forget that that's what entertainers are. Human. It's nice to see the gentle touches as friendly reminders as to what they're "supposed" to do, as well as the facial expressions of "whoops! Lemme just... Fix that... There. You didn't see anything" it's nice. It's still fake, and played up for laughs, but it feels real and very human, and that's what I like about it. Perfection isn't human, but mistakes are. (:

This is just a regular ballet class when there's a new choreography

this is what my parents should've named me

Comedy at its finest

A light-hearted moment in a world full of doom and gloom. Thank you,!

its the little looks they give each other when they fuck up that really does it for me.

There are no mistakes, all movements are carefully planned! perfect!

How to make any dance the mistake waltz Don’t practice

no matter how many times this gets recommended to me, I watch it and laugh every time

this really just puts into perspective how in sync dancers have to be

I laughed so hard when the dancer was still moving her hands and the other were dancing 😂😂😂

This is so adorably. imagine a bunch of little girls dancing this

Who knew I'd be watching this during quarantine...

See y'all again in a few years when this gets recommended again
