Have a look at

if it’s not exactly sitting.

My flatmate does fire staff (6ft pole with flaming ends swung around body). I
ride a unicycle and the natural thing was to combine the two.
He twirled his fire staff while sitting on my shoulders while I was on my
unicycle. (He’s a big lad too). Has this been done before? For that matter has
anyone else played around with juggling related skills while sitting on a
unicyclists shoulders?
If any one is interested I may get around to scanning a photo of the afore
mentioned event.

I’ve often done fire staff on my unicycle. The first time I did it on stage I
had 7 pints of bitter beforehand, and apparently terrified the audience (funny,
I don’t remember them being nervous).
I’ve never done it while sitting on someone’s shoulders. The twisting involved
in many fire staff moves makes it particularly difficult on a unicycle - I’d be
interested to know how different it is sitting on someone’s shoulders.
(Did you wear safety goggles? I don’t usually, but I sure as hell would if I had
someone sitting on my shoulders swinging fire around).
Danny Colyer danny@mos.clara.net Confident he can’t be prosecuted for being
drunk in charge of a unicycle.

For a second there, I thought you were going to say you had been juggling you
flatmate on fire while unicycling. I’d pay some serious money to see that! joel

does Sem juggling Teresa fit into this category?
8-10 years ago i would juggle clubs while on Brett Bernard’s (94’ artistic world
champion) shoulders and he was riding a six footer. i also juggled torches in
the same manner on a standard uni.
until the future, dustin
