This video has been getting some attention for a few months now, but it NEEDS a mention here on Street Juggling. I guess it is inevitable that someone would eventually make a parkour/juggling video, and perhaps it already has been done, but even it is has, the sheer talent and creativity displayed in this video is breath taking. As if finding ways to juggle balls and cigar boxes while jumping around like a maniac wasn’t enough, this guy even adds card throwing, skateboarding, martial arts, and various other manipulations into the mix. This is seriously one of the best compiled displays of overall physical talent I have ever seen captured on video. Also interesting to note, the guy in the video isn’t even a performer, rather he’s a professional video game animator. Talk about a Renaissance Man!

:: Chris Hodge juggled 10 hours on Wednesday, apparently, but did not come to juggling club (insider information here). But we’ll forgive him, since a new practice video came out of his day. Includes 5b, 7b, and 9b backcrosses and other numbers feats.
:: BJC 2007 videos are now available on JTV. Including:
Admittedly I’ve never had any remote interest in cigar boxes. They just don’t appeal to me and I can’t put a finger on why. Still, I had watched and rewatched this 8 minute clip featuring just that. I like how it’s presented in everyday settings. From the corridors of a building to the gents, if nothing else, it’s worth a chuckle.
