Performance: Parkour by Ryan Doyle



Someone has been watching The Labyrinth!  I was always a fan of that movie, but I never knew there was a name for "contact juggling" before watching this video.  Needless to say, I found this video fascinating. 

Contact juggling differs from toss juggling in several ways.  Have a look at the Wikipedia page for a full explanation. However, essentially it involves rolling a ball around one’s body, spinning the ball and finally manipulating it so it appears to be hanging in mid-air. It looks like a CGI trick, but it's not. The video is from Kuma Films and was shot at the National Taiwan University.
