Amazing video

Post by Mike Jackson »

Hi Forum readers,
At several of the conclaves, I've seen people juggling. It seems quite a few of us know how to juggle to at least some extent. Maybe it is just a playful extension of our eye/hand co-ordination? Anyway, I saw a clip on The Today Show and it mentioned a video clip found on the Internet.

The link below should take you right to it:

Besides the outstanding, entertaining juggling, you also get to hear a great old Beatles tune.

This was on another site a few weeks ago and I've watched it dozens of times and still am just blown away by his skill. Simply amazing.

He's a good comedian, too.

Hi Raymond,
If you scroll down the right side of the google page, there are a lot of other really great juggling videos.

This one shows a guy juggling 5 balls to the same music. At the very end of the clip, there is a guy juggling 5 balls in each hand.

Yep...and how about the guy that plays the keyboard with his......well, his juggling equipment?

Creative people always seem to be interested in some odd pastimes, like juggling, or riding a unicycle, or card tricks, or magic....etc.

I guess it's a lot better use of time than just watching TV...or writing on these bulletin boards.
