The Luke Burrage Drop Montage & Juggling Disaster 2003
Now is your chance to see "a British juggling legend" do what he always does... FAIL! Download this movie to see him miscatch, make wild grabs, hurt himself, dive for cover, try again and again to get a trick. Ever wanted to see what it looks like when someone drops 6 clubs while trying scissor catches? Ever wanted to see what a single backcross from 3 clubs looks like when it goes bad? Ever wanted to see what that really easy trick that you can do perfectly every time looks like when flung wildly?
Check out the videos now for fun droppage footage!

Honestly, I'd rather see these things done successfully.
Now we have Cake ripping off Garfield ripping off Spiderman.
Oh, and I've heard that this drop montage has already damaged Luke's burgeoning professional career. From now on all his public performances will be done in private.
You all know what that other drop montage did to that other American juggling legend, who used to be considered great and now has to find work at children's parties dressed as a clown.

Apparently so. I guess I've just never understood the concept. I've watched BMX and skateboarding videos, both of which will frequently have collections of some nasty falls at the end. That's the part I can't see any point in watching. Seeing someone pull off a tough trick is great. Seeing someone come very close to getting a really hard trick is ok too. But seeing failure after failure just isn't something I've ever been interesting in watching.
Now, as to making fun of Mr. Burrage for the videos he's put together, well, that's not what I'm complaining about.

You, Film 1999... What's with all this "Mr." buisness? Oh no you don't, there'll be no "Mr." and "Burrage" in the same sentence. Not in here there won't, I'll not be having it - you hear..
No "Mr." No "Porrage" No "Juggling" And none of the other stuff either - none of it.
You'll have your cake and you'll eat it. Now you, Barry Norman, splishy sploshy. C'mon, C'MON - hurry up, I have a hangover..

I must appologise, don't listen to me. I'm useless, I've been up all night with my present - a copy of Black Books and a bottle of wine.
Yours Sincerely, Ewano - eating scrambled egg, from a shoe, with a comb..

c'mon now lets keep this thread realistic. That's gonna be somewhat against the flow of the tide (insert suitable Canute reference here) If correct then it is something I gotta see.

Of course, the more positive of us don't call drops 'failure' - we call them 'progression' or 'learning experiences'. It is an honor to see learning experiences from a British Juggling Legend (BJL).

I think I've met Tony once, he was wearing white lycra, looked a bit like Elvis and kept hitting his head on the ceiling.....

Drops may be part of progression in skill, but they most certainly are not the entire progression towards learning a trick. And for them to be seen as a proper progression, it would be necessary to see some progress between one and the next.

I think the only way to resolve this is for each juggler to have a personal videographer who records their every move, then we'll truly be able to see the progression you mention.
Oh hang on, didn't someone do this a few years ago?

If anyone has a copy of the new edition Encyclopaedia of Ball Juggling by Charlie Dancey look at the entry for "Charlie's Cheat". So it is official, right?

Thank you, Tony, for your video of me dropping lots. The trailers was fantastic and had me giggling like a giggling thing. The full version, once I downloaded it, was very tedious and I didn't quite make it to the end.
