Poll: Can you juggle?

[Valksy]

Bought some some juggling balls (the sort that thud rather than roll away, make them easier to pick up) and followed instructions diligently. The let side and right side are so out of sync with one another than I ended up feeling like it was a miracle that I could bloody walk, let alone juggle.

Yeah I learned in school and just practiced at home..Its one of those things that once you learn how to do, you don't forget..To this day I still walk up to peoples fruit bowls and start juggling their apples and oranges.

Its one of those tricks that people always seemed to be impressed about for some reason.

Its not really that much to do with left/right, its more about just being about to focus on one point and not look away. Look at the point at which the ball in the centre going straight up will be around eye level..Its much like how pilots are always trained to keep their eyes on the horizon.

My title aint "Resident Juggler" without reason!

I've been juggling for the past 11 years now - its my main passion, and I'm seriously considering taking it into a full blown career.

edit: juggling balls isn't my main thing however - I mostly do diabolo and devil sticks (they do count however - juggling encompasses the manipulation of objects, not just throwing things), but I also do little bits of juggling balls (currently practicing 4/5 balls), juggling clubs, juggling knives, contact juggling, poi, staff, and a few other things I can't remember right now

Also, I'm in complete awe of this guy.

WHAT IS THIS SORCERY?!

OT: No. No, I can not. =[

I tried, I really tried, but I just can't do it. The third ball confuses me to hell.

Haven't tried for years but when I was younger I could juggle 3 balls.

It's awesome is what it is.

 

[Tekkawarrior]

It's quite easy if you practice regularly, I got very close at being able to keep 3 balls up, but I stopped practicing.

 

[Yrgen]

No.
I do not have the mental capabilities to focus on the 3rd ball. =(

 

[Abedeus]

No, but I can shoot down a rose 10 meters away using iron sight only, using an air gun.

 

[Rasputin1]

No, but I can shoot down a rose 10 meters away using iron sight only, using an air gun.

I'm assuming that's a good thing?

Well, good if you are not a rose within 10 meters from me.

I once could do it pretty alright with 3 balls, but due to neglect I can barely do it nowadays. I practised a bit at work a while ago with kiwis, went quite well for someone who hasn't juggled in like 5 years.
