Check it out. You probably won't be disappointed. His ball spinning
is some of the best ever. He puts us young guys (I'm only 39) to
shame. I would guess that he's in his late 50's, early 60's.

I have seen 5 videos of him, but none of them have him doing 7 clubs.
I really want to see video of that. I believe that this is a fairly
recent video of him. I have a great video of him back in his peak
years and his ball spinning was even better than in this video.
one of the things i love about juggling is it is so damn fair.
gravity treats everyone just exactly the same, for better or worse.
but this guy seems to have a special relationship with gravity, like he
has a magic power to keep
things in the air above him. of course, he was born into it, and worked
hard to develop it.
what kind of balls do you think he uses?
they seem to be medium sized rubber balls, not too heavy.
perfectly balanced for spinning.
where do you find such a thing?
cheers,
panic

Nice video! I liked the boomarang 720s around 8:00. And the boomarang to
head catch at 11:00.
The video says it was recorded 28 May 2008 in Germany.
Some more info on him:

You could also just go to his website:

Check out some of the pictures he has one there. 7 clubs while doing
a pole balance and spinning two rings on his leg! Lots of other cool
stuff. This is my kind of juggler (clubs, ball spinning, and
boomerangs are my three favorite types of juggling of late). Good
stuff, but I still want to see video of his 7 clubs.

I don't believe that for a moment. That was the upload date, I think. That
video has clearly been captured from VHS, and I don't think he looks as
old as David does[1]. This clip is from 3 different performances, two in
the same venue. The use of the U2 version of the Mission Impossible theme
in the last one dates it to post '96. I'd guess these videos are all from
the 90s.
Anyway, it was great to watch, so thanks for posting, David.

[1] I mean, as David thinks he does... ;-)
PS for those that haven't seen it, there's another video of Sorin here:

Writing "Sorin Munteanu " so that it shows up green....
I was estimating how old he is, not how old he appears in the video.
If he was doing 7 clubs in 1975 and we guess that he was 20 years old,
that would make him 54. He may have been older or younger than that
at that time, but that seems a reasonable starting point. Perhaps I
should have done the math when I made the earlier statement, but he's
still doing great stuff for someone in his mid fifties.
and missing the first space. D'oh!

There's a picture of him with 7 big balls, do you think (or know) it's a 7
balls cascade, 6 with a headbounce or, unlikely, 5 with a double
headbounce?
I can't really tell from the picture.

juggler... :D)
The video I have of his act that's not online is crystal clear and has
even better ball spinning stuff. He's the man.
