Hungarian Guy Captivates the World with „Flipping Bottles” – VIDEO

Flair bartening is not a sport, not art, but a lifestyle. One of the most popular professions, show business and entertainment at the same time. Norbert Nemeth „Topgun” has been „flipping bottles” for 7 years and now the time has come to captivate Austria, Dubai and America, vaskarika.hu reports.

According to wikipedia.com, flair bartending is the practice of bartenders entertaining guests, clientele or audiences with the manipulation of bar tools (e.g. cocktail shakers) and liquor bottles in tricky, dazzling ways. Used occasionally in cocktail bars, the action requires skills commonly associated with jugglers.

Flair bartending is sometimes referred to as “extreme bartending” or contracted to “flairtending.” The word flair became popular among practitioners in the mid-1990s. “Flair” is also used as a verb (e.g. “to flair”), referring to any trickery used by a bartender in order to entertain guests while mixing a drink. Flair can include juggling, flipping (bottles, shakers), manipulating flaming liquors or even performing close-up magic tricks (also referred to as “bar-magic”).
