I can't lie, i was kind of disappointed my 6 catches of 3 club cascade didn't make the video ;) Other than that great video
Oh no! I forgot about that one!
My 19 catches of 6 ball fountain?
@@masonvilleneuve420 I know.
Definitely the hardest trick I’ve ever seen is a 5-up-earn your father’s love and respect.
still working on that one 😄
I’ve mastered that one since I was born.
Only if your black
Woo, I made the cut! 😆
When I saw 11+balance I thought you had forgotten about 11+bounce. Happy to see that’s not the case. Great video.
From defining the criteria of a "difficult trick" in the intro to your precise explanations on all of these tricks your commentary is almost as impressive as some of these tricks ;) cheers from an American who is trying to progress from 3 ball tricks to 4 and 5 ball. This is very motivating :D
It's really great that In today's technological age their is a global and international community of jugglers.
The internet is really great for learning things like juggling .
It's really awesome to see all these top jugglers doing their thing and pushing the envelope of what is possible in the juggling realm.
It's also very inspirational and motivational.
these are so amazing. Well done, Jugglers.
The 11 rings head bounce is truly amazing! It was done in the Gatto Video #6
head hurts from watching those tricks
Goodness Gracious! Juggling tricks have come a long way since my competition days 😮
Amazing video man. I had no idea that anyone had ever done a 7 club 720 or 7 club alberts, that’s just incredible.
These tricks are so far beyond the ones from back when I followed juggling closely but one of the ones that made me fall off my chair when I first saw it was Lauge’s 5 ball 5 up FDB97000000 1080 from his “before going HD” video.
Those were the days!! That is a great video!!
I'm glad you had an honorable mention for Jack's 1 high 6 low 720, because that was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen.
Thanks for the mention man! For me personally I would add that doing 9 rings headbounce to pulldown or the 5 ball headbounce with 360 back to headbounce was way harder than the 7 ring backross 😅 I think neither me or Pavel spent a lot of time on the backrosses, but had to spend a lot on those other 2 😄 Anyway appreciating the mention! 🙏
Cool to know! But what about if you were to do a qualify of backcrosses?
@@eixenful I could only afford to asnwer that if I would have done it actually myself 😅 So take everything I say with a grain of salt and just subjective opinion. It's a hard trick and all my respect for getting the qualify it just surprises me being one of the tricks on many top most difficult tricks. I don't believe Pavel ever focused on a qualify and I absolutely believe he would have done it if he just wanted. In my case I never continued after I had the flash since there were so many other tricks I still wanted I just wanted to check it off 😅. So did Pavel do it? No. Did I do it? No. That's why all the respect to her actually doing it. Just for me, I was sure I would get the backrosses while I was never sure if I ever do a 9 ring headbounce with pulldown or a 5 ball headbounce 360. The qualify wouldnt have changed that, but as said it's all subjective and depending on what tricks feel easier for us.
Awesome video Eivind! Keep the cool stuff coming :) I would love to see more of these “Top something” lists!
Loved it :) Great job Eivind!
Nice video. Not putting yourself on the list is classy (but would have been justified). Not to mention a similar video from another channel.
Loving the list AND all your montages, thanks!!
Awesome video man! This video is very inspiring!
I really liked this list! 7 ball 7-up 360 in overheads by Gatto might have deserved a spot in here also. Or an 11 ring pulldown
Video? Can’t find it.
@@sketchesforyou8020 th-cam.com/video/iCr7h7zO9RI/w-d-xo.html 0:46-0:54 is a 7 ball 7-up 360 in overheads.
@@stijnwesterbeek2461 Thank you so much!
Jugglers make it look so easy that I had no idea it was so difficult a skill. I will applaud more and donate more when done on the street.
Thank you for all the effort you put into this video 👏👏👏
I really enjoyed the video. Very well put together with amazing tricks.
Loved this video! Great job
excellent video and awesome content. thanks !! waiting for the next one !
awesome video congrats, the comments below say almost everything there is to say about the video, about the explaining, there are so many tricks i didn't even know was possible 🤯
Good Stuff Eivind!
I agree with those excellent spins and ring backrosses I get dizzy when I go to work with my spins thanks for posting
Really nice video,all those tricks would probably make it to my list
some insane tricks yeah! nice video!
i learned a lot from this, wont be doing any 5s, 7s, or 9s anytime soon, but want to master back crosses and alberts
Thank you for this video
Great video!
thanx for the vid!
you should do top 10 greatest jugglers of all time
Amazing……..thank you very much……
I believe the 7 ring 7 up 360 under a headbounce by Gatto on TBTB III is also a really hard trick to get
Very nice video 👍
Nice video!
Every video of yours is amazing. I love how you showed many clips of different jugglers in addition to the ones that got the records. Question: who is the guy at 1:57? I don't think I have ever watched that video. Also, the one at 4:10? That looks like such a relaxed patter, it's incredible. Thanks for taking the time to make this video!
Thank you for that nice comment! The first one is Jonah Botvinick-Greenhouse and the second one is Julian Sæther.
Wow.. awesome 🤹🏻♂️
sheeeeeeesh the DB looks insane
Fun video. It's a little bit numbers+360s heavy but that's fine. Maybe do "10 rarest juggling tricks" next? As many jugglers strive for originality in their tricks.
It is for sure numbers and 360s heavy. I agree. Orginality wasn't a part of the criteria for making it on this list. Your suggestion for a list sounds interesting! Would be cool to collect many insane and weird tricks in one video!
Wow, the most amazing juggling tricks ive ever seen
So happy that I've seen Thomas Dietz do a 9ball 7up360 live but unfortunately off camera :)
That really is something to see live!!
was that to a collect or a qualfiy?
cool video!
great vid, and here I am not even able to do backcrosses and just starting on. five balls
What does your Top 10 list look like?? The whole list of the jugglers who did the Top 10 tricks are in the description!
1: 7 balls 5up 1080 and 7up 1440
2: 26 DB connected
3: 11 ring with head bounce
4: 7 club albert
5: 5clubs 5up 1080
6: 9 clubs 11catches
7: 7 ring 7up 720
8: 9 balls backcross
9: 7 clubs 5up 720
10: For the 10, I'm going to put something for me hehe... so 6up in tower with 7 balls since nobody did it !!
Your video is incredible and really very well done !!!! But just a personal note, I think that often the tricks that come to mind are short and brief tricks, and we tend to forget sequences or connections that can be even harder than the best short tricks! It is the case for me, often people say that my best trick is 6up in tower with 7 balls but in reality I made connections which were harder and which took me more time !! I think if I took into account all the hardest connections my top 10 wouldn't be the same. In any case I love your video !! Unbelievable !!
Amazing video!!
Great video! I was curious why you only chose numbers tricks - is it because you feel that numbers takes more time to develop than some of the brutally difficult 3-ball tricks? I'm thinking of the insane 3/4 box-style or dot-style tricks that Mike Moore and Kouta Ohashi do. Sprung 531 inverted box? For the same reason, would you not consider earlier gentleman-juggler tricks by Cinquevalli or Rastelli, who also judged difficulty by the amount of tricks performed simultaneously? I guess I feel that the title should be more about "hardest numbers juggling tricks within the last 20 years" than "all time", but that being said, it's a great video!
I'd say from personal experience that 3 ball tricks, although they can be mind bending, are just less steps away. I'm currently working on 5 clubs which has taken learning and getting comfortable with 4 and 5 balls and 3 and 4 clubs. If I wanted to progress to a 7 club 7 up, for example, each step from where I am is exponentially harder. However with 3 ball/ 4 ball tricks, there just aren't so many levels of progression required I believe.
Although I could be completely wrong and also no disrespect to those types of tricks which are still extremely difficult and definitely out of my reach at the moment
11:20 what is the name of that video? I remember watching it along time ago and I loved it, and I would really like to see it again
onni toivonen juggling act 2016
Haha, takk for at du inkluderte meg😅
Viktig å få representert Norge!!💯🔥
The 11 with the head bounce seems almost impossible to a non juggler like me..Lol Great video.
And to a small time juggler like me hahaha
Lol just 5 balls is 1 years to master so imagine 11 rings
It's impossible for 7 billion people including pro jugglers as one person has done 👍 it!
Thanks for the awesome video! Must have taken forever to make. What's the video where Ofek is doing 26 rounds of DB?!?
Yeah, it took some time! It's a facebook clip from Ori Roth's channel.
th-cam.com/video/M-3DWUd7Whc/w-d-xo.html
Nice List !
Maybe I would have added the 5up 5 stage 1800 from the video "no juggling here" somewhere.
That is a really cool trick! Super cool!!
It's extremely difficult because you have to make perfect high throws with an incredible high frequency
I'm still practicing so hard to learn 3 balls juggling.... very little progress !
.... any good tips to help me ?!
Great list! Who's the 9 ball juggler at 7:38? Thank you...
That is Micheal Ferreri!
magnificent! I love that offek is in 3 positions ... he is impressive, what is his life?
Yeah, he is insane! One of the reasons other than similar difficulty of the 7b 1080 and 1440 of why I but those 2 tricks together is because it would almost be wrong to give him 4 spots! :P
Gatto its absurdly good
I've just read that Gatto retired 12 years ago and now runs a concrete resurfacing company. I'm feeling a little bit dead inside.
Yep… Sadly this is true
I've never even seen the majority of these wow
Surprised that you didn’t mention the juggler at #1! Anthony Gatto!
It occured some problems regarding music, so the voice is quite strange in this video. But yes, it's Anthony Gatto at number 1
Awesome video! Btw whatever happened to Ty Tojo and Ofek? They haven't posted a video in the last 4-5 years. Do you think they still practice and still are at their peak level? I hope so!!!
Ofek does not practice juggling anymore but he is a very important member in our community and still contributes a lot
@@guylev Thanks for the info! Pity that he gave it up, but I'm happy that he is still in touch with juggling.
I'll try some of these, but I suspect they'll be difficult even for me.
not the biggest fan of numbers juggling but this is freakin incredible
I think that alex barron's fdb97531 should have been on the list.
My list a few months from 2 years of juggling, maintaining 5 balls cascade so I can do other 5 ball things 6, 7, etc! 😂🤣😃😄😅😆😉😉😣😥😏😋 I enjoyed the viedo. Now I see where I'm going! Bam, oh yeah. 🤔
Interesting information:
1) Gatto did 10 rings up synchr 360 (flash - 360 - collect).
2) And he was 1st who did 2 alberts with 7 clubs - 2 in a row with right hand.
3) Lauge after his video wrote that Thomas Dieth did 7 balls up 720 earlier.
4) Both this Japanese jugglers did 7 clubs up 360 - so, 5 people of all times)
5) Chris Hodge did 5 up 5 stages 1080.
Question: who are were at 0:16 and 0:33?
1) I've heard about the 10 ring 360, but I think Juggling before and after with 9 is more impressive. 2) I'm aware of that, but a flash and going back to the pattern is at a different level!
3) Yes, I believe Thomas did it before Lauge. I think Grisha did it before Lauge as well. But since I'm yet to find a clip of it, I found it best to leave it out.
4) The two japanese jugglers that have done the 7 up didn't do a qualify after. That's why I didn't include it.
5) I wasn't aware of that Chris Hodge had done that! You are thinking about the 5 up 5 stage 1800 and not 1080 I assume. I've seen Yudai Kato do it though in this video. Insane trick and insane video. th-cam.com/video/Hv0ktrcjQeo/w-d-xo.html
It's me at 0:16 and Haavard Hvidsten at 0:33
I think #2 was harder than 1 but what do I know, I just own 400 DVDs crammed with juggling not including 80 more from the International Juggling Association
I am curious: have you ever seen Anthony Gatto's To Be the Best 3? My favorite trick of all time is in there. He did 5 clubs with a headbounce, bounced the ball off of his head and went directly into a six object fountain with the 5 clubs and head bounce ball for about 20 catches, he threw the headbounce ball up high over his head, threw all five clubs up, did a 360, caught the 5 clubs and went back into juggling 5 clubs. Meanwhile the headbounce ball bounced off the ground behind him and back onto his head and he went back into 5 clubs with a headbounce.
Another favorite trick of mine is 5 club "leaping salmon" or "vertical flats" by Evegni Biljauer. I believe he is the only person to ever accomplish that. I have requested a few of the best club jugglers in the world to try that trick and none of them have been able to accomplish it. If you have never seen the practice video of Evegni on David Cain's youtube channel, it is worth a watch.
I've watched both TBTB III (long time ago) and the training video from Biljauer! Gatto's trick is crazy and Biljauer's is quite unique. I've never seen it with 5, even though it's quite common with 3.
Gattos combo is not a trick - it's combination of tricks.
And speaking of combos: Sergey Ignatov (senior, USSR). 6 rings + 7th ring pulling up from his neck into the pattern + 7 ring half piruette(180) + 7ring half piruette(180) again + 7rings half shower + 7 up 360 + 7 rings pancakes to finish.
Most importantly - This was NOT a combo completed ONCE for video after 1000 attempts(like tricks in this incredible Video). This was part of his EVERYDAY PERFORMANCE in the circus back in 1977- 1980 !!! I witnessed that multiple times myself, being a teenager. You can find this combo on TH-cam. In numbers his record was 11 rings (12 throws AFTER 9rings up+adding 2 ring into the pattern from belt), in rehearsal,1977, no video) What can you say about that?))
@@trottgizz1946 I have seen a video of his 7 ring routine! Stunning! Also I heard Sergei Ingnatov has a video someone took of him during practice of 22 catches with 11 rings! (From back in his prime).
@@mrt9877 Unfortunately, these are only rumors - S. Ignatovs best with 11 rings was 12 throws.
That's what HE says.
I still keep in touch with him (he turned 71 on 23d august this year)
Great video but what was the point of coming up with a measuring system and then not using it?
I didn't reffer to it during the video, but this entire list was thought out with that meassure alone in mind. Giving an estimate of how long a trick takes to learn wouldn't be very accurate. But I truly believe that trick #5 takes longer to learn than trick #6 and so forth! :)
@@eixenful awesome. I can’t even imagine how long it would take to learn any of those tricks.Those are some amazing people.
My cousins ofek snir he's teaching me how to juggle
The most impressive trick I saw live was 8b sync flash with 720 3 times on stage of GOP Munich. You saw all balls in the top curve. Don't know the jugglers name. He said "training 20 years and then to old for this trick" thought he was joking. I started to juggle 4 years ago... no joke. What do you think about it?
If I was stuck in a time loop where I snapped into consciousness after a pro juggler threw 9 balls, I think it'd take months to even be able to catch them
Is someone's endurance time with a certain number of objects juggled the best measure of a juggler's greatness, or are there number specialists that aren't necessarily the best?
Both are a measure of skill. But if a juggler has a good endurance record of 6-7 clubs, 8-9 rings or 8-9 balls, it says more about their skill in general than someone who has flashed for instance 12 balls. A 12 ball juggler could be highly specialized in ball numbers as you mentioned. A juggler who has 100+ catches of 8 or 9 balls is with really high probability really good at a lot of different juggling as well.
Hope this answers your question.
@@eixenful Is it common for serious jugglers to have wrist injuries? I had to take a long time off from juggling years ago because of that. How is that avoided? Do professionals do a lot of stretching?
I saw on Instagram a guy who did a 9 ring 9 up 360 and then 10 more catches
Loved it, your content is awesome Eivind, really enjoying it!
I wanted to mention that when you say 'and even to this day no one's managed more than 5 db's on video' , I don't know if you've seen this video at 0:45 th-cam.com/video/Cs4Y1zSSK8I/w-d-xo.html&feature=emb_title (Alex does 7 Db's back to pattern!) 😊
I looked through Alex' channel, but not that video! Thank you for the heads up though! I've seen it way back, but missed it this time!
@@eixenful Ahh! It’s hidden on the IJA’s channel, probably why! But yeah, I had no doubt you’d have seen it 😁
#3 and #1 - 11 rings with ring balance and then same with ball bounce - only you don't mention who is doing these on the video! Looks like Gato for #1 but not sure for #3 and with the poor picture quality its hard to tell for sure...
Thank you for mentioning that! I didn't leave that out on purpose. The whole list of the jugglers who did the Top 10 tricks are now written in the description. Thank you for the heads up!
Ps: Pavel Evsukevich does the 11 ring with balance and Anthony Gatto does the ball bounce.
@@eixenful OK, I assumed it was an oversight and not deliberate. Otherwise, one might just assume we all know who they are rather than thinking they are not worth mentioning, LOL. Noticed that, that un-namable guy who flashed 9 clubs didn't make the list, must be a loser - or at least until he makes it to a qualify... :o)
Hahah!
I can juggle three Oranges (🍊) with both hands (👏) or two Apples (🍎🍏) with one hand (👏). Never really tried four or five at one time.
They taught us in school how to do these.
Albert's!!!!!!!!!
how about a 7 glass bottle flash
I agree with the most of this list but not the balance and the ball bounce. We are jugglers, not seals.
Me and me 5 ball are just kind when I see that
There's no such thing as the greatest juggler. Because juggling is not limited. But for current numbers juggling, I'd have to go with Ofek Snir. 5, 7 ball records, cominations.
Reevaluate your comment!
Let us forget everything except the number of balls. What is the record number of balls juggled successfully?
That is 14 by Alex Barron!
imposible balance 5 clavas flaka buitron 30 atrapadas @cinthia buitron
7 club alberts seem a lot harder than 11 ring s with head bounce…
Very interesting video. In my opininion juggling more objects on a unicycle could be on the list.
Where would you place 14 balls? Just out of curiosity ;)
If 14 balls was the only base pattern that would be considered a trick, I think it would for sure be on the list. Maybe on 4th place. Difficult to say. But there are many jugglers who gives most of their time to numbers juggling with balls. So I think I can say with big confidence, that this is a feature that takes a lot of time to achieve!
Not only the video but visiting the comment section too was a not a good idea for someone who has just started juggling with two balls and a bad replacement for the third ball😐
11:35 wtf
There are many forms of juggling and you only stuck with two or three types of toss juggling, how about juggling knives ...6 knives and then throw them into a target accurately
These guys should be boxers
bro i can barely do 3 and ppl are doing 9... what
Counterpoint: These are all pretty boring tricks. Why is no-one working on consecutive cycles of 8f4b85561? Could it be because it is actually much, much harder than db97531? I'm trolling a bit, but seriously, there was a time when a 7-up was considered insanely difficult, and now we've got guys doing 720's or more. More to the point, if we are considering what a difficult JUGGLING pattern is, then in my opinion body motion is not part of the equation. And yes, I understand that excludes backcrosses, leg throws, pirouettes, etc. Those things are difficult, and (when not vanilla patterns) pretty cool, but the pattern most often being performed is 999999900...not much to talk about. I would define a difficult pattern (of pure juggling) as generally having widely disparate throw values with odd relationships, which is why db97531, though physically demanding, isn't particularly difficult when compared to other patterns. Hell, my best seven-ball run is 100 catches, and I'm pretty sure I could do it.
It's strange to me that after all these years, no-one out of the prodigiously skilled numbers jugglers are working the insane wealth of patterns available at the click of a button from jugglinglab or similar apps. Or maybe they are, but what makes it to video is the same tricks from 20 years ago. Or maybe I'm out of touch. But this video is only 2 years old, and there's no mention of any bugnuts crazy siteswap anywhere to be seen. No discredit to these jugglers, they're all massive talents...but saying something is "the most difficult" is straight clickbait when the best jugglers in the world haven't done even a single cycle of some 7-ball variations that are easily dredged up. Or 14-ball juggling, which also didn't make it in here.
Anyways, all respect to you. Not trying to hack you or your content, just providing an alternate viewpoint. I know you have the technical skill to understand what I'm getting at. Cheers!
I understand what you're saying, but I disagree. I think all those body throws should be there. As I mention in the video, base patterns aren't included, as 14 ball fountain, even though it's very impressive. And the db97531 is there for 26 rounds in a row, not just one round which I agree isn't that crazy (even though very difficult). In general if some new siteswaps were to make the list, they would have to be quite extreme.
Thank you for your point of view though! :)
Make your own video and list❤😅🤔 so I can critique!
amazing. I can't even juggle one.
I realy missed ameron rosvall, Bow and devin tucker. All the jugglers in the vide have one or two trick no one else on the plannet can do but theese 3 guy throw out video with so manny tricks no one in the world can do. Just becous its less object dousnt mean it takes 20000 to get the trick done. So manny insane trick dont make these lists just becouse moosst jugglers dount undersand whats going on. There is this milsmess veriation in wich you throw clubs in front flats. on top of that the clubs ar thrown at different sides on your boddy. Around 20/30 people on the plannet can do this bow dousnt only do this with poi wich is insane on itself he dous it with 4 poi. this trick has never been doune with clubs. on top of that no one has ever done a normal milssmes with poi.
as a total ignoramous I must say they all look impossible
why not just have real jugglers judge it
this is not juggling
this.list.is.baby.cry.material.

Great video!
