Hello.

This is the challenge:

Juggle 3 balls for 6 throws. The first person to do it wins.[1]

To help heres the only video you will need to learn:

[2]

All other videos are useless compared to this one. Its made by the owner of "The World Juggling Federation"

So remember to keep watching that video. You will probably be able to "Juggle"[3] by the end of the video!

Cheers,

Mark

[1] Theres no prize. Only the satisfation of learning a new and cool skill. :)

[2] Not by me. Although i will be making my own series of instructional Juggling videos.

[3] The term Juggle refers to throwing at least all the objects you have. I.e 3 balls= 3 throws and 3 catches.

I Juggle. And i hang around the lounge mostly.

This is annoying. I managed 5 last night. For me, that is amazing. Does it matter that the only thing I can find to juggle with safely is socks?

haha thats fine! but you should try and get some tennis balls, if you cant get bean bags. and do it standing over your bed, so they dont make much noise and you dont have to bend down so much. :-)

The trouble with tennis balls is that my hands are only small! I did already figure that it would be easier standing over my bed, though I lost a pair of socks behind a chest of drawers this morning! ;) I also nearly got six, but I dropped the last one!

My goodness, that's a pretty funky donkey!

Dropping the last one can be annoying.

Once i was doing a long 4 ball rountine. I was doing it in one take. Was about 2 minutes worth of tricks. And i dropped the last ball! And it took me AGES, because i was doing some very hard tricks, to get it one take again.

Also if you got a camera, you should film yourself a couple of times. Then you can see what went wrong, and how you can improve. And another benefit is then you can make a progress video with the footage you got. :)

Cheers,

Mark

P.S. Its official! Juggling DOES improve brain power!!.....

I can juggle three balls with ease, but no more than three. I used to be able to walk around, get down on my knees, stand back up again and carry on walking, but that was pretty much the only 'trick' I could do.

Turning was the really hard part, heh.

The most heroic act is the one that no-one knows about.

Nice one! How long ago was the last time you juggled?

Im sure you could pick it back up and learn a couple of tricks.

Stay tuned for my beginners tricks video. :)

For people like me? I havn't managed more than 6 yet, I average at 4/5 so it could be a while before I need some tricks ;)

We played table tennis today, I decided that I may have the hand-eye co-ordination of a snake at times :P

Well it turns out i couldnt do it last night anyway.

But its always good to know some tricks, so you can try them. Its always best to push yourself in juggling. :)

      Jordan North's first Capital Radio breakfast show

      By coffeeandgin · Posted

      Yep am very much Capital Breakfast now. Jordan, Chris and Sian are a great trio and it's got that feel of the old shows Jordan and Chris used to do on Radio 1. It doesn't take itself too seriously but is packed full of content and slick. With Greg he's great but 6 years in you've probably heard it all before plus frankly I can sit through the Capital Playlist a lot more easily than the Radio 1 playlist (where some of the inclusions and omissions can be quite baffling at times). Plus after things like the Oscars or Met Gala or if there's a particularly big TV show or film or popstar then Greg won't half wang on about it at times. I guess it's partly to be expected with it being a Breakfast show on a young station but it can feel very London bubble and get tired.

      I honestly never thought in a million years I’d move from Radio 1 to be a regular Capital breakfast show listener. But it’s got pretty much everything I want - 3 really genuine, entertaining mates having a laugh, playing silly games and it all sounds great. I became a big fan of Chris from his days with Scott, became a Jordan fan on Going Home, and Sian Welby is newer to me but is loads of fun too.  It’s great and I’ve shocked myself by transferring my listening at breakfast. For me Greg’s show now feels very tired and it’s time for something new. But with Jordan gone that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. Greg’s had a great run and I’m a fan - but there’s no new ideas now. I still listen to Radio 1 at other times - but this show feels like very serious competition for Greg.

      The eighth floor

      By Lily Georgia · Posted

      They have built four new studios to increase capacity, alongside the existing six.  Bearing in mind that some of the output of R1, 1X, R2 & 6M comes from elsewhere, and Asian Network is gradually moving all output to Birmingham, this should be enough!

      How do they manage to cater for 6Music and Radio 2 on that floor? Did they adapt it?

      I think we've all figured out now how much you like it @AndyK77 😂 Personally while I think it's by far the best show on the Capital schedule and better than its predecessor, it still has the shortened songs and other commercial-radio aspects that remind me why I'm a Radio 1 fan. No matter how well this has worked out for Jordan, and all credit to him for landing the job, I can't help but feel that a Jordan and Katie show on R1 breakfast would have been so much better!

      A few weeks in and I am actually loving the show and Jordan is a nice mix of his old chaotic self and dare I say it a slick jock.

      Rylan and Scott

      By xxladybarefootxx · Posted

      I really like Rylan, and as much of a fun idea it would be to have Scott and Rylan together, I think Rylan is too much of a main character.  Scott needs a side-kick rather than a full on co-host I think. That’s why he and Chris worked so well, Scott steered the show, and Chris was the perfect person to have alongside him.    I don’t religiously listen to Rylan’s show, but when I do catch it, it’s perfect weekend energy. He has a very warm presenting style too, but something makes me think he and Scott together every day would be a bit too much.

      So pleased for Scott on his best entertainment show win. As much as I miss his R1 style, he clearly puts so much into his shows, well deserved and it’s a big two fingers up to all the abuse he has had since joining R2

      I felt it was much better with the staging and everything.  I still cannot warm to his voice but he's a very good performer. Ireland was everything though.
