I've seen moves with full bottles that have blown me away.  Of course, part of 
the impact comes from the fact that I can clearly see that the bottle is full 
and I have no clue how the bartender managed to pull it off!

I guess I can say that I'm still a flair bartender, although I haven't pulled 
a shift in a few years now.  And yes, I have videos, four to be exact.  I'm 
not actually in them, but I helped with the production and I make sure that 
bartenders all over the world can see them and learn from them.

What the hell am I talking about?  Well, I work for a company called Flairco.  
If you're a flair bartender and haven't heard that name, then I'm not doing my 
job right.  In addition to being the Director of Sales and Marketing for 
Flairco, I'm also the Vice President of the Flair Bartenders Association (FBA) 
and one of a handful of Certified Master Judges for our international 
competitions.

So now my references might make a bit more sense, as I'm using some of the 
best bartenders in the world when talking about full bottle moves.  If you 
ever get a chance to sit down and watch them work at a high volume working 
flair bar, you'll see what I mean.

I'm just fortunate enough to see it in competitions.
