A recent viral on the internet has left netizens amazed. Joe Jenkins, in his latest stunt was seen playing a piano, underwater.

In a recent viral, a man dived deep into the sea with his piano and played the instrument under the sea. The man, Joe Jenkins, is known for playing instruments at places very unusual. Earlier he played instruments at places like a boat, in front of Buckingham Palace, and on a hot air balloon as well. In his latest stunt, he can be seen playing a tune on a yellow piano, underwater.

Son, can you play me a memory?
Joe Jenkins is a YouTube sensation at 20 – and he’s achieved it through performing “random stunts which make me happy, but also will bring some joy to people on the internet”. As well as street corners, he’s taken his piano on a boat – and even played Queen hits outside Buckingham Palace.

Kart before the horse
“I’ve kind of just tried to do random stunts which make me happy, but also will bring some joy to people on the internet,” Joe said in an interview with the BBC. One such stunt involved being wheeled through a shopping mall while performing “Coconut Mall”, a track from the Nintendo Wii game Mario Kart. “I got critiqued in that video more than any other video, for my playing,” he recalls. “And I just wanted to shout at everyone in the comments, ‘you try doing it, you try sitting on a moving rig being squished at tight proximity to the piano.’”

Song and dance
As well as uncanny settings for such a bulky instrument, Joe’s videos often capture the spontaneous reactions of passers-by – who often end up dancing. “I get to meet all sorts of strange and fun characters,” he said. But it’s still a challenge. “Even after two years of doing it, I’m still getting nervous putting my piano out here and performing, even if it’s just for a small handful of people.”

A load of hot air
“I do believe I’m the first person to have played acoustic piano in a hot air balloon,” Joe said of another recent stunt. His choice of song? The theme tune from the Disney film Up. It took more than a year of planning to pull it off. “I was stressing about the dimensions of the piano, but I hadn’t even thought about the fact that we needed gas cylinders as well to go anywhere,” he confessed.

He shared a video of the incident on his official Instagram handle. In the video, he can be seen wearing full-fledged diving gear and holding a breathing apparatus, while he played ‘Under the sea’ from The Little mermaid. Speaking to a well-known source, Jenkins said that he first dunked the instrument in the water, went down there diving, and played the piano underwater. He also expressed his happiness about finally being able to pull it off successfully. He also mentioned that the biggest hurdle in his was was to be able to comply with the health and safety regulations.

His video left the internet amazed and attracted several comments. The comments included “When I first saw your River Flows In You video, I was hoping one day you would put it underwater…well done,” “You are amazing. You and Matthias should do a collab, like “I played electric love on an electric piano in a power faculty” or something stupid like that,” and “Fish probably already recording it Joe you don’t have to,” among several others.

Joe Jenkins, a Bristol-based YouTube sensation who frequently plays the piano in unexpected settings, has surprised the internet with his most recent jaw-dropping stunt.

This time, he took his piano and dove to the bottom of the ocean, playing the instrument while submerged. As seen on social media, Jenkins has performed in front of Buckingham Palace before, on a boat, and even in a hot air balloon.

Jenkins posted a video of the incident through his official Instagram account, with a caption that read: “I Played ‘Under The Sea’… UNDER THE SEA.”

He can be seen playing ‘Under the sea’ from the animated film The Little Mermaid on a yellow piano while sporting complete diving gear and a breathing device in the video.

Speaking to the BBC, Jenkins remarked: “I dunked it in the water and went down there and dove and played it. Now I’ve finally managed to just about pull it off.”

He believes he is the first person to play a functional piano while it was completely submerged in water.

Jenkins spent two years planning the trick. He claimed that adhering to health and safety requirements, being able to dive safely, and making sure the piano functioned underwater were his major challenges. The piano, which is currently in storage, still functions, he told the outlet, even though it is “horribly out of tune” and “extremely rusty.”

Fans of the YouTuber and other social media users rushed to the comment section to appreciate the act and express shock and admiration.

One user wrote, ” You are my hero!!! Love this and everything that you put your mind to!”

“Fantastic Joe. We’re your hands very cold?” a curious user asked.

“Literally amazing! I know what I’ll be doing next time I go to the sea,” a third said.

“This is legit science and thank you for being so creative!” another chimed in.
