Hi jugglers of all ages!

I am proud to announce Thomas's and my (premature) christmas present to
you:

http://lutkus.com/juggling/thomas/thomas6.mpg

It's big (74MB), but if there's any Thomas Dietz Video that's worth
downloading, it's this one.

As always, we long for your feedback.

bye
schani

Noooo!!!!!

I'm still trying to download number 5, now the server's going to be
swamped again. I don't suppose anyone has a possibility to mirror?

Well, thanks anyway, keep them coming, but I doubt I will be able to see
this one until after christmas.

Hello Mark,

Very nice video stuff, I am still downloading 2,5,6
I just got adsl, but downloading from lutkus don't go that quick right
now. The videos are really nice.
Stefan and I are working on a montage also, we hope we will finish it next
summer, now we don't have much time to play with cameras.
Maybe it would be nice to have a website of Thomas also.

Bye,
Niels

It will probably be better in a couple of days, I assumen that this is
caused by to many people downloading at the same time.

Any chance of getting 5, 6 and the Berlin video up on
http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/schani/jugglevids/ ?

Yeah, I'm still trying to download the 5th one, but I'm about to give
up. I guess I'll have to wait a while and then download it.

Well, at first I thought Thomas was more of just an outstanding ball
juggler, but as I watched his 4-5 videos (I haven't been able to
download the 6th one yet) I see that this is definately not the case!
He is an EXCELLENT club juggler as well! Wow! He pulled off some
really awesome club juggling tricks! Keep them coming! (Thomas,
you're a great inspiration)!

Yeah, unfortunately, my university can only afford three OC3 lines. If
you can offer more speed and lots of storage space, more power to you.

Holy Shiza! That was incredible! Thomas doesn't have a website does
he? Dude, Thomas, you've gotta come to the IJA festival this summer!
Seriously. That was amazing. Thomas, you're from Berlin right?
Man...you've humbled me so much... I better go practice. You guys
have got to sell these videos.
Merry Christmas to you too (and Happy Holidays to everyone else)!

All of these videos have been simply amazing. This latest one once
again raises the bar above what I could have imagined. The best
technical juggling of this sort I have ever seen, period.
Keep up the great work, consider coming to the states for some of the
festivals, it would truly be a treat.

And for all you complaining about download speeds, I downloaded the
latest three tonight in about an hour. Sure its christmas eve and
everyone is probably asleep, but how can you sleep when you know you
have new juggling equipment under the tree.

Schani and Thomas,

These videos are unbelievable. I still haven't closed the video on my
desktop so that I can watch it over and over again without having to
download it again. I don't know how everyone else feels, but I would
like more information on Thomas (if anyone knows any of these answers
please help me out). Here are my questions to Thomas and those that
know him or know about him:
1. Does he perform? If not, does he plan on performing for a living
eventually?
2. Does he have a website?
3. Where is he from (Berlin?...if so, East or West)?
4. Was that last siteswap on his video really 13 11 9 7 5 3 1?
5. Are you planning on selling any of these videos?
6. When should we expect your next video?
Thanks!

With a little bit of editing, these videos would easily sell! Although I'm
thankful that they are free for download, you guys really should make a
juggling video. This stuff is amazing.

yes, astoundingly, it was.

properly written it's ... db97531.

A friendly member of the RJ community educated me on this point following
the release
of Dietz #1 (see his b97531 with the 1 a backpass).

throws exceeding height 10 get letters not numbers. personally, i think
those throws
should get capital letters since they are so !@#$ hard, but i wasn't
consulted. still
haven't been, come to think of it.

happy juggling.

Top tip: Right click on the video link and select "save as" from the
menu that appears, you can then save the video to your computer
and play it as many times as you like without having to ever download
it again.

Does anyone know if this siteswap has ever been achieved by another
juggler?

Yes, Ben Beever. Until I saw the video of Dietz doing it I thought that
Ben was the only person who could do it. I've come close a few times but I
have a problem with the last few throws when I start with the 13 in my
right hand and I can't get enough height when I start with the 13 in my
left hand.

Boppo told me that he had pulled it off a few times.
