top class juggler
« on: November 05, 2021, 02:43:00 AM »
hi all

here is a very incredible juggling act  by Alexander Koblikov

Gold Medal at 30`th International Circus Festival "Cirque de Demain"  in 2009

it's from a stage show on french TV , recorded some years ago
I heard him recently on the radio talking about movement and suspension of time
during a program dealing with philosophy on the national cultural channel "France Culture 93.5 FM"

and I discovered this video I had never seen before



enjoy!

Wow! : 8) 8) 8) That's a jugglers's juggler!
Ten balls juggling! On stage!  :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o
I guess he is multiplexing pairs (difficult to tell on the video), but still mind blowing!
Just holding 10 balls in two hands and doing the first throw with control makes me faint!

An amazing feat, to be sure, but I fainted at the sight of Miss France.

Put 10 kg and a tux on jim, and he'd look a lot like the emcee.

Koblikovs' sleepy (slightly drunk) sailor persona is a personal favorite of mine. This is a great example of his talent. Some of the 3 ball tricks he does are so good. Smooth as butter.
