Jugglingworld News Number 20 (March 2012)
In this Olympic Year, you may feel compelled to turn your Juggling Skills into a World Record Attempt. I hope you will find the main article useful and become inspired!
Main Article – Silly Juggling World Records
Your World Record attempts needn’t be trying to juggle a high number of objects. They can be as simple or as funny as you like! They may not get recognised by Guinness, but that doesn’t make them any less entertaining to you and your audience as long as you enjoy the experience and it improves your skills and stamina! Here are some examples of what is possible with lots of practice:
Keeping a Tennis Ball in the air while climbing up a ladder (53 Steps) | Paul Sahli |
Longest distance driven in a car with an open roof while heading a ball (7km) | Agim Agushi |
Fastest Mile while hopping on a pogo stick and juggling 3 balls (23 minutes and 28 seconds) | Ashrita Furman |
You can read the full article on my website here – Silly Juggling World Records. There are also pages dedicated to:
- Juggling World Records
- Dangerous Juggling Records
- Circus Skills Records (diabolo, plate spin etc)
Moving House / Clearing out Sale
I will be moving house by the end of March 2012. I plan on staying in Rushden, Northamptonshire, but still to identify the new location just yet! My address will therefore be changing, and I am unsure if I can take the landline number with me just yet, but my mobile number and e-mail address will remain the same, and you will always be able to find my latest contact details on the contact page of my website.
To save having to pack up and move too many boxes of Juggling Store equipment, I have just added another 40+ products to the Bargain Basement Section of my Online Jugglingworld Store (UK only). Grab yourself a bargain and help someone from a lot of heavy lifting – everyone’s a winner! Lots of reductions especially in the Diabolo, Face Paints, Poi and Guinness World Records sections in particular.
Video Clips
There are now 78 video clips of my Juggling performances and Juggling Convention activities which are available on my YouTube Channel. This includes 4 brand new tutorials on toothbrush twirling, poi spinning, 4 ball juggling and 3 club juggling. These were filmed at the wonderfully picturesque Stanwick Lakes. If you view any video clips, please consider liking or leaving a comment.
God bless
