I was wondering that same thing, Jeff. Haitians are amazing for making music out of seemingly nothing - compare it to www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_oV478RaS4 (best to ignore the embarrassing tourist!).
The hand drummers in the youtube link were using an even faster, more richly interlocking beat. My high school French isn't good enough to decipher any more than the counting at the beginning.

Interesting how the drummer and the metal-working artist sounds weave in and out from each other. Was the main drummer standing off camera somewhere?
That's absolutely mesmerising.
