Chris Bliss

Yes, this was really good but the popularity of this video has pissed off ALOT of people in the juggling world due do how people are thinking this is "World class juggling" when in fact the tricks he does are among the simplest there are. In fact, the popularity of this video pissed off the greatest juggler in the world, Jason Garfield, to the point he made a parody video of it called "The Bliss Diss" which you can find on his website "Jasongarfield. com" in which he performs every single of one these tricks with five balls...to the same song! Check it out

It's artistry that makes this video so popular. I am the first to agree that Bliss's performance might not be the most technically challenging, but it's the WAY he performs it. There's just a certain flow and musicallity that makes up for the lack of technical difficulty. With most types of performing arts, there are those who may be far more technically gifted, however their performance ends up feeling "mechanical" because they are SO focused on being technical, whereas another performer may not have the same level of difficulty but the way they do it just WORKS. They give it a soul, and that's why people are drawn to it more than that of the technically superior.

Anybody can copy and TRY to improve on someone's doings of any kind. Chriss Bliss invented the routine, he performed it a lot better than you will ever do and if you can't appreciate his art, it's your problem.

And as far as your opinion of the people who like him, well maybe that's why you're still sitting at home and video taping yourself in a Gym with bad lighting thinking your good and telling others how dumb they are for liking Bliss more than you. PRICK.

You tell 'em Bzz!

is an excellent juggler (the best?), but is a POMPOUS ASS. Listen to any of his interviews and you'll see what I mean.

His Bliss Diss is quite a display of juggling prowess, but lacks the liquidity, rhythm, and flow of Diss' performance.

And you could tell Diss was enjoying himself and liked pleasing the crowd, whereras with Garfield, it's all about himself.

don't even look at the comments.
My 2 cents.

You did :-))

It's an entertaining routine because he synchronizes it with the music, but the juggling is not very challenging. There are countless jugglers out there more skilled than Chris Bliss, assuming this video shows the extent of Chris's ability (who knows, maybe he can do more than what's in this act). Heck, I can do most of the tricks he does. I'm sure with some practice I could put together this routine as well, although it would take me a while to get it perfected like he has (he's had over 20 years of practice!).
