There's a guy at a local work shop who juggles sink plungers. They've
good spin but are hard on the hands. Their major advantage is that
they look definitely foolish.

net-reader-jugglers juggle. what are some of the strange things you can make
to go in a pleasing pattern? i have tried things like computer disks and
bricks and driftwood, but these are not too eccentrically shaped and not very
unusual items. a friend of mine was trying to juggle bean bags (the kind you
sit in). i also juggle physics classes, but this is something else entirely.
what are your experiences?

Well, I have on occasion juggled two balls and a single-jack sledge hammer.
They're about 5 pounds or so, I suppose, with a handle about a foot long.
Now, _they_ are hard on the hand -- the center of rotation is somewhere inside
the head, and the handle really whips around.

the handle to whip around real fast. An artist friend of mine suggested
that he could drill downward into the handle and put a lead weight in it,
then seal it with wood putty. sounds theoretically helpful, but haven't
had time to try. anybody tried something like this?

Well, I juggle plungers. Not very creative, but hey! audiences like them.
They 've got a nice balance if you cut off about six inches. Otherwise they
spin so fast they either take out your teeth or brake your hand.

I took three of those CHEM-LITE chemical flares, a syringe, and three
street hockey balls (light yellow). Removed the glowing fluid from
the flares and injected it into the balls. I managed to juggle in the
dark for about 5 minutes before the glow faded to a point where
I couldn't see what I was doing. Unfortunately, the chemicals seemed
to react with the air (or a component thereof), and lose their
glow strength VERY quickly.
I've been thinking about mounting some of these on the ends of my
(home made) clubs. (Perhaps a blue one on the Joy dish-soap bottle,
and a yellow one on the Salon-Selective shampoo bottle, and green
for the empty Cola bottle).
This way I can *shine* at night... well my clubs will anyway.

I saw it done on The Paul Daniels Show once. I can't remember the juggler's
name, but he did a short cascade with three chainsaws that were running.
He demonstrated that they were real by cutting through a 2X4 before
starting. It was the finale of a decent 5/6/7 ring and 3-pongpong ball
routine.

Dunno who this was, sounds a lot like Dick Franco who does, indeed,
juggle chainsaws. When I saw him, he started with a chainsaw
balancing on his chin and proceeded to juggle three from there. I've
always assumed that he juggles them with the motor running but without
engaging the chain. If you look in _Juggling, the Art and its
Artists_, you can see a picture of Franco juggling chainsaws, the
links on the chain are clearly visible which would indicate that the
chain is not engaged. It seems to me that I heard of someone who did
juggle live chain saws (chain fully engaged) and had injured him- or
herself quite severely.
Kit Summers mentions, in his book, performers who disengage the chain
before juggling after demonstrating the chainsaws awesome power.

I had a go at two empty (?!) beers cans (500ml) & a beer bottle at a
party last weekend. Not too wierd maybe, but apropriate for the
occasion. The bottle was nice, but the cans needed some attention.
Trouble is, it seems inpossible to empty a beer can before
juggling it. Luckily we were outside, so I was the only one
who got covered in beer :-)

Actually, in a Juggler's World, I believe, Dick Franco mentions
that the chain is not a real chainsaw chain, but a bicycle chain
instead. No foolin'.

YES it was Dick Franco. I remembered there was something
interesting about his start - He let one fall from a chin balance into
a cascade. You're right, the chainsaws are running, but just idling. The
chain is turning very slowly if at all. Of course for the demonstration cut,
he just revs it up a bit.

This was Dick Franco, who has been performing with chainsaws for nearly
10 years, but he wasn't the first -- nor the last. Sigh.
The first I'm aware of was James Marcel, who did this on That's
Incredible in February 1981. Marcel soon gave up his juggling career
for acting, in which he was equally talented. He appeared in "Delta
Pi" in 1985, which just missed out for an Academy Award nomination.
Robert Gruenberg took the idea and made it his trademark, and performed
it on the Tonight Show in March 1984. In his interview with Johnny
Carson he gleefully told of all of the money he was making, which was
used as evidence against him when the IRS successfully prosecuted him
for tax evasion.
Dick Franco remains one of my favorite jugglers, in spite of his use of
chainsaws. Marcel and Gruenberg are somewhat lower on my personal list
of favorites,

Chain saws have a safety feature -- if you let go of them, they disengage
the chain (whether real or bicycle chain). VERY useful feature for
jugglers.
I, like most jugglers, hate chain saws for the usual reasons. Of course,
stupid me, I've tried to pass machetes -- back to back. They were "only"
the Dube version, but they're still dangerous enough. Chain saws are not
only (seemingly) dangerous, but they very noisy, which is the worst part --
probably the part the engages the common audience.

It was the director's idea for our new-age-ish performance piece. The
cheap flashlights I bought were too short, so I used ducting tape to tape
them sticking straight out from the head of my clubs. I marked the
with the handles of the clubs with glow-in-the-dark tape, which in turned
required a sealed little box on stage with a light inside to have the
glow tape fresh when I started. I had spare bulbs and everything, but
(believe it or not) I didn't have to replace anything but batteries
during two months of practicing and lots of dropping.
What with the darkness and the length this was extremely difficult, but the
lighting effects were awesome.

I also heard that they hire people for decent amounts of

Very easy to do. I knew someone who had a chainsaw accident once.
The saw 'kicked back' (those of you who have used the things know
what I'm talking about), he stumbled, and the saw hit his leg. In
about a half second, the saw cut through the middle of his thigh and
completely through the femur. It didn't quite cut entirely through,
but it may as well have, given how much was left.
Through some miracle, doctors where able to reattach his leg well enough
that he could walk. Seven years later, though, he was still in
physical therapy, and he'll always need a crutch. Also, a large part
of his leg no longer has much feeling, so he has to be very careful
about cuts and bruises.
THE MORAL: anyone who juggles chainsaws with an active blade is an
idiot. Those things can remove your arms before you even realize
there is a problem.

I recently juggled 3 and 4 bits of scree on the top of the Jura

Jason Perry's current street show includes a segment where he does an axe, an
apple, and an egg. He chops the head off a toy duck (lotsa stage blood) to
prove the axe is sharp, then eats the apple a few bites during the cascade,
then sticks the egg in his mouth and spits it all over his shirt.
He also sticks a lit torch down his trousers to put it out. This, from a guy
who can do 5 clubs, 7 balls, or very flashy 3 ball tricks. He's aiming the
show at the typical street audience, I guess.

I saw the Flying Karamazov Brothers last Friday, and Ivan cascaded a cricket
bat, a computer mouse, and a handful of tripe (wet white intestines). He got a
standing ovation. If he'd failed, he'd have got a custard pie in the face.
I'm trying to decide if I should post detailed descriptions of all the fab
stuff the FKBs did, or if I should avoid spoiling the show for those who'll be
going to it.

Anyone seen 'The Jerk'? This is a Steve Martin film where he juggles three
kittens (obviously cuddly toy kittens).
In 'The Man with Two Brains' he juggles three oranges, tap dances, and sings
the 'Liptenstein boogie woogie?' song as a test to see if he's been drunk
driving. ("Man! your drunk drive tests are hard").
Steve qualifies as an average juggler :-)

This was Renegade scree, right? Renegade don't erode their scree enough for my
tastes. Try Todd Smith scree - Popovitch says they're the best balanced on the
market.

I sometimes simply grab some junk lying around and try to juggle it -
generally I do only a cascade though.
The weirdest combination I had till now probably was the keys to my
appartment an empty cigarette box and a - hmm whats the english word for
that: you use it if the water doesnt flow out your basin - its partly of
wood and has a rubber "bell". I once did also the combinations of a short
broom, a computer keyboard and my bicycle helmet (this one was quite
hard). I think the big challenge is to get items that require a different
grip AND have very different weight. Thats why I especially like the
combination of a ring, a club and a very light ball for training.
I am still to fearful to try juggling my crystal ball, my powerbook and a
flamethrower :-)

When I was a student, a flat mate and I used to juggle (and try to pass)
various kitchen utensils. Wooden spoons, ladles (a bit awkward), egg whisks,
fish-slices and rolls of cling-film were pressed into service. We also had
a go using bread-knives, but our girl friends screamed and put a stop to
that. Some sort of culinary routine is probably possible; an egg, a frying
pan and something else, finishing with the egg in the pan. Probably been
done before, for that matter.
Loo brushes (unused) are good for the comedy effect, and are less stress
on the hands. Or so I'm told.

Yep, the Flying Karamazov Brothers have done it in various shows ("the
grand finale of death" or something). It ended with an egg in the frying
pan with a torch held underneath, someone popping a champagne bottle and
pouring into a glass, etc. etc. Fun stuff.

Sunday afternoon. He *did* cut a piece of wood in half, and he did
strap the chainsaws on at high speed before juggling -- they were
quite loud.
It was pretty obvious how he "safely" throws them -- he throws them
high enough to give himself plenty of time to be sure which end he's
grabbing.
As to any deception, it's possible that only one is sharpened, but
there wasn't anyplace to hide a fourth.
