Actually, Bowie mesed up and that's why he laughed. Michael's job in that scene was to transfer the ball to Bowie and he successfully did that, Bowie was meant to roll the ball over his finger tips and hold it. The end result is that it looks like the Goblin King got a ball out of thin air. Watch the scene in slow motion and you can see Bowie's hand and Michael's hand.
@@qwmx Bowie's right arm isn't in that scene at all. The juggler uses his left hand to roll the ball down his own right arm, which is in Bowie's jacket sleeve.
Michael Moschen is amazing. Contact juggling, blinded, pressed against another person, while wearing leather jacket and glove (meaning he couldn't feel precisely where the ball was at)... That takes talent!
Wait! I have a better plan.. *plop* Wait! I have a better plan.. *plop* (David Bowie laughs) Wait! I have a better plan.. *plop* (Bursts out laughing again)
Dawwwww I always used to think the crystal juggling was one of david Bowies many hidden talents, I'm so naive.But this proves that the film is a masterpiece and created a great illusion.
I do this and the learning curve is so steep that it takes nothing short of single minded dedication and the patience to wait till stars burn out with daily practice of four hours a day especially if you're self taught, one thing I notice and it's irritating is that other people who do this art form never ever get the move right the one where he is doing the wavy motion and the ball looks like it is floating at his fingertips.
I can't stop watching this,,, probably due to the fact that David's reactions to Michael's mistakes are true reactions, and his real personality really comes out... I just love David Bowie. :)
The effort and energy that went into every particular scene is astounding. For a literally one second image, it can take hours of rehearsal. I work in theatre and we put the hours in- but there isn't the pressure of being filmed quite so intimately.
He’s one of those people who you don’t expect to die...when I watch videos of him I completely forget that he passed and it fills me with great sadness really.
The care put into David's performance and the jugglers skill going hand in hand with the masterful stroke a production magic by Jim Henson. bravo sir bravo 1:39
I worked with a guy who worked with Michael Moschen. He takes himself INCREDIBLY seriously, and would actually get angry when jugglers would incorporate throwing into contact juggling. That being said, he's beyond talented. And when being 'unique' in juggling would mean nothing more than juggling larger or more oddly shaped object, Moschen created a revolution in how jugglers stand out from the crowd.
I remember seeing Michael on PBS doing his performance with crystals... wasn't sure what to think really... but it works well here though it had to be nerve racking.
Michael Moschen was great performing Jareth’s magic juggling, I also love seeing bloopers with David laughing as Michael probably gets annoyed at messing up the juggling.
Omg the peach was a 'present'...at the time I thought he was just trying to distract her which is still probably partly true but he started falling for her too and the peach was a way for him to get to her and seduce her because he started to fall for her...in Jareth's weird ways but oh so lovely lol...Oh goodness! =P
Up until now I thought that Bowie just knew how to do that, or that they paid an artist to teach him, what a stranhe and magical way to do it. Mr. Henson really knew how to make each of his works special.
As TARDISsexy said: "Gosh i've watched this movie so many times. I love David Bowie. Not just the teasing with the bulge. He is sensual without being overly sexual and it makes me want to be Sarah and have him look at me like he does her. That accent just makes it so amazing when he talks. In this movie and in real life. I find myself hanging on every word he says. "Fear me, love me, do as i say and i will be your slave" *sighs happily* if only if only" You and me both woman lol lately I've been watching the movie everyday...can't get enough of it
EVERYTHING!!!! Everything you wanted I have done. You asked for the child to be taken, I took him. You coward before me, I was frightening.

I have always been a very intuitive person and ever since a was little girl - and watched the film The Labyrinth for the first time - I've thought: " David Bowie's one of the most fascinating people of the last century".
Dylan Medler bloody is idiot, fushigi is a scam. Contact juggling is the real name for t and it has been around for many years longer than ducky fushigi
I've seen this movie as a kid... and always remembered in awe that sphere juggling part... now, 35+ years later, I searched it on yt and found out how they did it... even more impressive.
@@peterlenham6904 Jim Henson was always a technophile. He had a fascination with computer animation. The opening of Labyrinth features the first time a real world animal was created by CGI.

i love you guys. thank goodness you didn't fade away. it's like the best thing ever coming home from battle and having the henson company there to welcome you back
I always thought that toss to Hoggle was a bit restricted as he was so far away. Now that I know it wasn't Bowie, I get why it was. It's hard to do a full arm swing when you're crouched behind someone.
I laughing always about that Haugl dwarf, he looked nearly similar as my German grandfather. With a little magic maybe he was much more human. That movie was amazing.
Best part is when at 1:40 David knew Michael was gonna mess up so he laughed straight away and michael just had that "oh whatever" face on him. xD
Right after
David bowie: Well I had fun! :D

Don't forget about the smile\smirk he does after he laughs the first time.
I died when I watched this the first time. That was great ❤
Imagine how many times he’s had to go through this 🤣🤣
God he was so adorable during the outtakes.
SunBunz they should release a gag reel of this movie that shows the bloopers with the crystal balls and with actors messing up their lines
SunBunz me too
@@themoviebuff1425 that would be epic!!

Bowie Wrote And Performed The Songs That's Gotta Count As Something Real.
I love it when David laughs😄💖
I know right I love him ❤️❤️🌸
Alyssa Oburn me toooooooo
David's laugh
M y t h i c a l B e a r ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ he Laugh sooooo beautiful 💟💟💟💟💟💟💟
Michael Moschen is a very underrated master of his craft. I'm more curious to learn how he does that with those crystals.
I do this and the learning curve is so steep that it takes nothing short of single minded dedication and the patience to wait till stars burn out with daily practice of four hours a day especially if you're self taught, one thing I notice and it's irritating is that other people who do this art form never ever get the move right the one where he is doing the wavy motion and the ball looks like it is floating at his fingertips.
@@jareth7456 the butterfly is so difficult 😅
How do you get to Carnegie Hall?
To us jugglers he’s well known as a great master of the craft.
I love when He says "Friends" OMG...THAT VOICE!
2:35
0:54 That wink.
Ikrrrr he's just to dreamy
Daaaaaayuuummm...
😥 I miss him
I can't stop watching this,,, probably due to the fact that David's reactions to Michael's mistakes are true reactions, and his real personality really comes out... I just love David Bowie. :)
Bowie siendo Bowie ❤
The effort and energy that went into every particular scene is astounding. For a literally one second image, it can take hours of rehearsal. I work in theatre and we put the hours in- but there isn't the pressure of being filmed quite so intimately.
David Bowie has the sexiest laugh...
Yes!!...but seriously, though, forget singing - I could just listen to him talk all day long!
He has the sexiest everything
His laugh is very similar to of Alan Watts'
When he smiles i cant help but mirror him 😍
He has the sexiest everything
Michael Moschen's juggling in the film was what made Jareth even more magical
Working completely blind and he still pulled it off! True magician!
ITS NOT DAVID BOWIE WITH THE CRYSTALS?!?!?!?!?!?! OH MY GOD! IVE BEEN LIED TO MY WHOLE LIFE 😭😭😭😭
I've known that for a while. He's a singer and an actor. Not a stuntman.
I've always known that he didn't do it and turns out my assumptions were correct all my life.
Damn, even I realized when I was really young that it was someone else’s arm in the sleeve? Always boggled my mind though 😂😂😂
Don’t worry.. I’ve been lied to as well 🤣
Believing Bowie is magic is NOT naive! He bloody was!
every time i say take my brother away when he was annoying. no david bowie came through my window damn it :(...............
its sad is it
It's very sad - and even though I love my brother, I think I'd still wish him away just to meet the goblin king! #inlove
You forgot to say "right now "
Same with my sister☹️
Remember your words I wish the goblins would come and take you away ..right now
Rest In Peace, Jim, and Rest In Peace, David Bowie. We all love you, and you'll never be forgotten
I had seen this some years ago, but I had completely forgotten the wink. It just caught me by surprise. *fanning herself*
I loved how david was so patient with everything. Such a sweetheart
The ball trick was the whole reason why i liked this movie as a child.
As i got older it took a backseat to David ;D
I watch this video again and again just to hear David's laugh. It's like music in my ears!
The Labyrinth, I don't understand how it didn't do well on initial realease. True art.
im literally crying, this movie was my whole childhood. brings tears to my eyes when i think of davids passing
And Jim's passing
David had the most adorable laugh X3
I agree. I think I'm obsessed with the English accent, and David's accent is one of my favorites. I could listen to him talk all day.
omg davids smile in the beginning scene
He has a beautiful smile!!
ikrrrr
LOL at Bowie in Jareth makeup without the wig
Rest in peace, Jim & David. :'(
He’s one of those people who you don’t expect to die...when I watch videos of him I completely forget that he passed and it fills me with great sadness really.
Jim Henson's is another.
The care put into David's performance and the jugglers skill going hand in hand with the masterful stroke a production magic by Jim Henson. bravo sir bravo 1:39
Tried and tried contact juggling...it's extreamly difficult! Much respect for those who can do it so masterfully.
That wink at 0:54 ;)
So mischievous. ;)

Did you read the Marvel Comics adaptation where he even almost went for it?
Bloody Luna *Chris Hansen has entered the chat*
No... she was sixteen. There was no underlying of seduction in that scene.
Why don't have a seat right over there for me, please.

He's adorable 😍😍😍
As close to real magic as I've seen. Jim Hensen.

Whoa, I never knew that wasn't his arm! That is shocking, but the guy doing it is pretty talented.
I squealed like a little girl when David winked at the camera. -3 I love him!

Would never have known it wasn't David, so cool!
When I saw that in the movie, I shouted "NO WAAAAAY." XD And I'm a high school student now. Lol...I love this movie.

David: whoops! dropped it again XD
Micheal: -_-
0:55 is when every fan girl just dies. Every. Single. One.
david bowie is sooooooooooooo cute in this movie
I love Michael Moschen.
Damn David’s voice is or was hypnotic , 💋👌
this is where the idea of the fushigi mustve came from
Dylan Medler bloody is idiot, fushigi is a scam. Contact juggling is the real name for t and it has been around for many years longer than ducky fushigi
1:37 Love that laugh! Haha!
'I ain't lost ma head!' hehe. Love this film so muchhhh :DDDDD
RIP Jim! Lol I close my eyes and hear Kermit.
I actually knew something was going on when David started to move that crystal ball, it looked funny like it wasnt his hand, and I was right.
I've seen this movie as a kid... and always remembered in awe that sphere juggling part... now, 35+ years later, I searched it on yt and found out how they did it... even more impressive.
I always assumed it was just CGI - couldn't believe someone can actually do this
As Jim Henson said the closest thing to real magic that i really know .
Computer generated images wasn't that sophisticated back in 86. They could do it now with digital effects, but not then.
@@peterlenham6904 Jim Henson was always a technophile. He had a fascination with computer animation. The opening of Labyrinth features the first time a real world animal was created by CGI.
... and then do it blindfolded. Michael is nothing short of amazing.

yay David Bowie!!
Wow that crystal handling looks really challenging.
They were amazing. Jeniffer and David. Awesome movie :)
I TOTALLY LOVE DAVID!! he is sooo cute!! in this movie! :)
Everything is magical about this movie
I feel bad for the guy who had to be behind Bowie the entire time for the crystals, but pulled it through

Jim was a visionary in puppet form. Both he and David were true gents and yes, I still get the flutter over DB's jodphurs... 👀
Outstanding stunt work. I thought this was Bowie's performance throughout.
20+ years later I found out that David wasn't doing that with his balls himself
My lovely movie nostalgia
I always thought that toss to Hoggle was a bit restricted as he was so far away. Now that I know it wasn't Bowie, I get why it was. It's hard to do a full arm swing when you're crouched behind someone.
I bought the dvd last day! It's my favourite movie forever! Thank you from Italy..
You got that right!
what they did on this movie is insane...
you do realize that contact and juggling with spheres existed long before the brand name "fushigi" did, right?
I laughing always about that Haugl dwarf, he looked nearly similar as my German grandfather. With a little magic maybe he was much more human. That movie was amazing.
It came off perfectly. It was worth the time and effort. Thank you Michael.
Growing up I always thought David Bowie & Terence Stamp as Zod from Superman 2 to be the best villians of all time. Scar from lion king is wicked too.
