Is That a Bongo Drum or Djembe Drum

That's a Djembe. Bongos are way smaller, way shorter. They don't look anything like each other.

>> According to the Bambara people in Mali, the name of the djembe comes from the saying "Anke djé, anke bé" which translates to "everyone gather together in peace" and defines the drum's purpose. In the Bambara language, "djé" is the verb for "gather" and "bé" translates as "peace."[2] << (Wiki)

That is what I thought. It was indeed a peacemaker in the vid!

It's generally not recommended to use it that way. You could throw the drum out of tune.

On the other hand the kid's lucky the guy wasn't a pianist.
