I'm going to take a wild guess and say that If I gave you a set of bags or set of clubs and asked you to do a routine you'd fall flat on yer bum. I'd further guess if you were to do a 180 or 360 or passing or 5 ball mills mess or flanny's flurry or hey even just juggling to the tempo you'd probably fail miserably.
I could be wrong, but that would just be my guess. Juggling is an art that increases the congnitive skills. The trouble is everyone wants it to be just entertainment and not the technical sport that it is.
How many singers were on the show? Far more than three. Juggling, gymnastics, Body hooping, balancing acts are all serious skills requiring serious training and talent. Of course since it's not something you can ooh and awe over for more than 15 seconds most people call it "stupid". I've never met a serious juggler yet who couldn't give a martial artist a run for their money even when the juggler wasn't trained in martial arts. That impresses me a heck of a lot more than someone who can bounce and hip hop to religious songs or strip or rap at 60 yrs old or spit out vulgarities at 8 yrs old.
I was disappointed that they didn't have a few hundred more jugglers, gymnasts, body hoopers, etc.
