Contact Juggling is Insanely Cool! Either That or Dorky.

We’ve posted a video post on contact juggling before, but these performances by Okotanpe and Mister Om are pretty trippy!

See how Okotanpe makes the ball seem to float in place …

    Mister Om really looks like Will Ferrell, which made his performance hilarious.

    The first street performer was pretty cool. Mister Om’s performance seemed kind of silly.

    Oh, I figured out the song the guy uses in the first video! It’s by Rei Harakami called, “300ml (Milk)”. Odd name but quite a lot of fun to listen to.

    I also forgot to add…I want to try this out!

    This is a lot harder than it looks. And this is about as good as it gets. Very impressive!

    I just have to wonder how many HOURS of practice it takes to get to that level! I doubt I’d have that level of patience.

    Btw, I liked the first video of Okotanpe better than the Wizard.

    Mr Om is obviously a ‘Fantastic Planet’ reference. The music sounds like its from FP too

    I have seen four guys doing the same thing in San Telmo, Argentina. It was really impressive.

    Nice talent with the grace and all that noise. Can’t say much about that funky hat and fedora. Maybe that’s where the power lies: Funky hats and fedoras.

    ahaha same here. You know, the guy was actually doing it was behind bowie’s back, so he could not see the glass orbs at all.

    as for the performances, I liked the first one better, Mr. Ohm was a bit creepy.

    hahaha yeah same here. Y’know, the guy who actually did that was behind Bowie’s back, so he couldn’t really see what he was doing. Nuts.

    As for the performances, I liked the first one better. Mr.Ohm is a bit too creepy, it was like he was staring at my soul o_0
