I agree with a number of other comments. Some of his safety chat(?) is more than lacking.
You had better check what sort of fire extinguisher you use. Could be even more dangerous than the flames. Rest of his omissions have been made by others. Fuel,containers,checking torches, fire blankets,check floor and overhead,etc etc.Not a good video to follow,sorry.
It's handy to have a fire blanket so you can put them out without waiting for them to nearly burn out. Cleaning them will prolong their life - his are caked in soot which should be wiped off with a tissue. It's easier with more space. And it's about as dangerous as cooking on a gas stove, but if you say 'woah this is very very dangerous!' I guess people think it's better.
This bloke is a bit of a muppet. I have always used paraffin for fuel. Also, an old washed out food tin can is perfect for the fuel, or even a glass jar, although obviously this could break if dropped. Finally, once lit, the torches burn fiercely at first, so it is best to wait between 30 - 60 seconds before starting to juggle, even if your audience are impatient!
It's over-safe because it's a video for beginners. If you smart asses really want dangerous try juggling freshly sharpened steak knives dipped in cyanide.
lol gud totarial but it a little over safe i do juggling and fire staff and the fuel i use burns at a low tempeature so it doesnt hurt unless u hold it 2 ur hand which is dumb anyway =S
Excellent Vid . Thanks. i can do clubs , getting ready to try torches. All info helps, one can never have too much. (that especially applies to people who struggle to formulate sentences , so they opt for ...'it sucks , etc , instead. Sad really)
You know, the thing I really wanted to learn was how to actually flip the torch right so I can the unflamming spot and like...you know...JUGGLE!I kinda already knew how to light it and i also knew it was dangerous.DAAAAAA!!!!!
Patatoseur, if you are competent at clubs, but nervous about torches, this video is exactly what you need.
Far more than half of the torch accidents are from the fuel source. Stuff like moving the cup of fuel away may not always seem obvious to a newbie, so that is the purpose of the vid.
hum ok we got the safety with torches part but when exactly did expertvillage thought we would learn how to juggle on this vid? nl,ghkl;jg mklb bklgn bnvmklvnm bnjkfc gnbvj nkgknj gkjn mk gkvhnmkvbnjghnmbvknmghnmbvjkn bvjk nkmnk fggnhjnmjbvgbn bvk vkclbn ,lbn bv nb,m jmlhbjlghkkj hgkn bn hklgnmhgkj,jklmghklmnghkmjkglh v kllnbvnmbnmkl;nml;mklnhnmhmklnh
k..how about teaching the people how to juggle them.. not nervously light sticks on fire..geez are you made of dry paper? ok show though.. not a tutorial of juggling.
i'd laugh if he grabbed the sidewh the flame on it and all the other torches fell on him...it didnt look like he had anyone with a fire extinguisher standing by...
dude all you showed us was safty tips and the title is called how to juggle torches all you did was show us you juggling how are we supposed to learn from that?!
hmmmm didn't exactly look like an expert to me, theres a lot better fuels to use than charcoal fluid and certainly a lot better fuel containers than a plastic cup which petroleum based products such as charcoal fluid will "melt" right through after about 5 minutes. he also didn't mention the most important safety tips like what clothes you should wear and to wear eye protection especially when you are a beginner. expert village? perhaps more like newb village... but hey who's judging ;)
@erikkloeker I think expert village's videos are only really good for beginners, but you're right, with this video it definitely does not help beginners. It just teaches them the wrong thing
Your video has been also selected as ONE OF THE TOP TEN BEST of the month in the UK. Check it out this week on channel Learning>Do-it-yourself>How to, on the WeShow Awards UK Edition and vote on your favorites!
The title was 'How to Juggle Flaming Torches'... at least 'How to juggle pins!' is an actual 'how-to'. I could quibble about the stupidity of splashing fuel on plywood, fuel-in-a-plastic-cup, and wearing loose clothing while juggling fire. If it's going to be a how-to from EXPERT VILLAGE it is seriously lacking.
The video wasn't aptly named, but it gives the details necessary for flaming torch juggling. A person that doesn't know how to juggle torches (which uses the same techniques as juggling pins) shouldn't even think of juggling flaming torches. The technique is the same - the difference is that the torches are actually on fire. Your criticism is unmerited.
No. It teaches inappropriate 'safety precautions'. He says shake off the excess fuel 'away from the area' and put fuel 'away from the area' and then places the OPEN PLASTIC CUP OF FLAMMABLE LIQUID a few steps away, and proceeds to juggle a few steps away from the highly flammable plywood-with-fuel-on-it. And juggles in a cluttered area.
Sure, what he SAYS is pretty appropriate, but the manner in which he DOES the safety precautions is not. By submitting the video under the rubric of expertvillage, it is making a claim as being expert advice. In sum, it is not expert advice, and is advice that if followed could lead to fire mayhem.
I have juggled fire since he was pooping in his pants, and I have actually seen serious accidents from very similar methods to those employed by this self-styled expert.
I started with balls.. Its really fairly easy to learn three ball juggling. Once you get the hang of it, its almost automatic. It can take longer with pins until you get the flip down. I find juggling relaxing :)
i just put marshmallows on a stick and pit them in a fire then juggled them
