Celebrities (and quasi celebrities) that unicycle, juggle, etc

I’d love to have a list of celebrities and quasi celebrities that unicycle, juggle, diabolo, and so forth. Preferably famous to everyone, not just us :slight_smile:

-Tina from Survivor Australia was shown unicycling on the Survivor “Where are they now?” special. Kind of wobbly, but quite cool that she learned
-Paul Kariya of the Anaheim Mighty Ducks learned how to juggle to improve hand eye coordination
-Todd MacCulloch of the Philadelphia 76ers can also juggle. Unfortunately, he was forced into retirement earlier this season due to a nerve disorder :frowning:

Donald Rumsfeld when he’s not busy wagi…oh nevermind. He unicycles, too. Someone (sendhair, Gild, Klaas?) posted a picture of this once, but I can’t find it.

Wobbly posted this pic on 28 Sep 2002. In addition, UniBrier linked to a pic on EBay but that is not there anymore. There was also a photo of him UPD’ing, seemingly just moments after the attached pic was taken.

Apparently Rupert Grint who plays Ron Weasely in the Harry Potter movies got a unicycle for his 14th birthday. Indications are that he can sort of ride it.

Steve Martin and Tom Hanks can juggle. Don’t know about unicycling, though.

Peter Tosh (from The Wailers) unicycles.
So does Eddie Izzard (Comedian)
Terrence Mann is said to have gotten his first broadway role because he could ride a unicycle.

Oh, and Kris Holm unicycles too

Ex-Formular 1 driver Mika Hakinen (spelling?) can unicycle (Do not know if you know him in USA, he is from Finland and popular in Europe I think). Saw him on TV in a kind of celebritie-circus in Germany some time ago.

Moritz

Ruhrpott Unitrials

Steve-O from “Jackass” can unicycle and juggle. He also pole vaults, stilt walks, and skate boards.

Mojoe

The wife of a head coach of one of the teams of the National Football League rides.

I gave her Universal to watch recently. I am trying to get her to buy unicycles for their kids now. --chirokid–

There was a one Actor who was in Neighbours on Channel Ten (Australia) Rides a Unicycle. It was back in the late 1980’s to early 1990’s that he rode a Giraffe Unicycle to and from the Channel Ten Studio’s. I know his name but I lost it. And Some while ago I saw Naomi Watts ride a Unicycle in a Australian Movie “Under the Lighthouse Dancing”. Funny, this thread came back right now, Saving me posting a new one, I would like to see some Celebritie’s either they have or tried to ride a Unicycle or Juggle.
Or if they Own a Unicycle and still riding it. I’m off to Google right now to search for “Celebritie’s Riding Unicycles”.

Yeah, Mika Hakkinen does ride a uni! :smiley: Thats cool, I didnt know!

You learn something new every day! :stuck_out_tongue:

Joe,

This one kind of reminds me of a Budweiser advertisement on the subject of Achievements, one of which is a man making the claim that, “I dated Carmen Electra’s cousins’, …friends’…sister.”

Ok, that was OT.

You are right Rapheal. I was simply trying to protect her privacy. I should have listened to my gut feeling and not have even posted it at all.

Sorry for being so vague. --chirokid–

I believe you Chirokid. And I figured that this is what you were trying to do, since you gave specific details about showing them UniVerse.

Actually I was not criticizing here, just free associating, something my wife thinks I should try to do with less frequency. :slight_smile:

A real celebrity.

Hey! That picture is copyrighted. :wink:

Now I Found his name That Kid starred in Neighbours on the Ten Network Australia. His name is Kirstian Schmid. He played Todd Landers on Neighbours back in 1989 for 18 months. He was killed off the show. He ride a giraffe unicycle to and from the Studio’s where Neighbours was filming at the time. The Surname I found is hard to pronounce but I found him on the Neighbours website tonight. Glad I found it.
