The Chris Bliss Diss...by Jason Garfield

1 decade 6 years 6 months 1 week ago

The following is cut and pasted from Wikipedia...

In 2006 Bliss enjoyed widespread fame when an online video of his juggling finale became a viral internet sensation. The five minute video shows his energetic finale where he juggles 3 balls to Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End by The Beatles. The video was widely circulated via email and blogs with an estimated 20 million viewings within 40 days [2].

The video caused quite a stir in the juggling world, with Bliss appearing as a guest on Penn Jillette's radio show [3], Penn was himself a juggler and is associated with the World Juggling Federation. Many jugglers were surprised and confused by the success that Bliss had found with such a simple juggling routine. In response to this, Jason Garfield, a highly accomplished technical juggler, recorded a self-described "parody" video of Bliss' finale using much more technical tricks with 5 balls. In reality, this video is simply a more technically demanding performance set to the same music, with nothing else in common with Bliss' performance. This video also went viral, further boosting the fame of the original.

Above is the vidoe-
