Ofek Shilton is only 12 years old, but already he is one of the best diabolist in the world. He can even do tricks with four diabolos. I’ve only seen a very few people run four, much less do tricks with four!

8 Ball Shower
Bruce Sarafian posted a video that includes old footage of him juggling a 7 and an 8 ball shower. This is the only video I’ve ever seen of 8 ball shower. Everyone else seems to cap out at 7. There are good reasons why Bruce’s world records have stood for years. Very few people take Click Here to continue reading.
New WJF Competitors
Grigoriy Lovigin and Alexandr Koblikov are going to compete in WJF 5. They have some pretty amazing tricks that I’ve never seen before, like juggling 10 balls using a duplex cascade pattern. Includes the solidest 5 ball reverse shoulder throws I’ve ever seen.
Parkour and Freerunning
I came across some really cool videos on Parkour and Freerunning. Parkour is basically the skill or sport of clearing objects and moving quickly when chasing or running away. Parkour is basically about various vaulting techniques, landing safetly from very high drops, and landing precisely on very small surfaces. Freerunning is Parkour, except instead of trying to use the most energy efficient techniques, they try to make it look cooler by adding spins and flips, etc.
This is a good video to give you a taste:
And this is a good video to give you an idea of how they practice:
It reminds me a lot of the jumping games we used to play as kids, but taken to extremes.
Josiah Jones
Somebody actually managed to get some video footage of that recluse Josiah Jones. He was famous years back when he was still very young for being able to run 5 ball mills for longer than everybody else—with ease. Now, lots of people can do 5 easy—and the best can even sometimes get a qualify of Click Here to continue reading.
Bruce Sarafian is back!
Bruce Sarafian is back from his long hiatus. He’s been gone for years, and yet still holds most of the World Records he held when he stopped juggling. Although he hasn’t put up any recent footage yet, he has posted some previously unreleased footage that should give you an idea just how good he is.
Mirror Practical Joke
I found this video of a very elaborate practical joke via Dark Roasted Blend. Identical twins trick numerous passers by into believing they cannot see their reflections. Most of them seem very disturbed by this trick. I only wish it was in english, or had english subtitles so I could hear what they were saying.

I had to write a report in Microsoft Word for a computer course I’ve been taking. I’m sufficiently technically advanced that an assinment on Word provides little to no learning, so to keep it from being any more mind numbingly boring than it had to be, I decided to write a paper on juggling pattern Click Here to continue reading.

Chris Fowlers "Who We Are"
Chris Fowler’s latest video has a lot of technical juggling on it. Technical juggling is what Chris does best, so this video is definitely a keeper. He’s been working on his spins quite a bit, and it shows. That 5 ball 3 high 1080 degree spin was incredible.
