  • President of the organization is allowed to compete??? Doesn't that totally negate the legitimacy of this as a competition? I think the WJF is definitely a good thing, because it pushes the technical skill level for ALL jugglers higher each year, but if it is to be taken seriously Jason needs to step off.

  • @RichieMillions He no longer competes.

  • this guy is sooooooooooo cocky!!!

  • His ego could barely fit inside the building.

  • Wow. "I'm the best here every one else sucks," and then he drops one. Right on.

  • @boarderofsnow13 And then he wins.

  • @boarderofsnow13 Everyone drops. We're human. Lets see you do it.

  • that was a very difficult ruitine but watching that compared to what the compitition was like in wjf 7 really shows how much the sport of juggling has improved just in the last 6 years.

  • What a pompous douche. Even though he is talented, i cannot respect someone who is that arrogant.

  • @TruthTheSpeaker

    He was joking.

  • LOL what a dick... "im the best in balls"... is he? Im not saying Anthony gatto is the best, but he could be better or at least, a tough competition

    I like mister Alegria from Varekai :)

  • i swear at 1:53 thats pen, one of the magicians and part of the act pen and teller?

  • @skrach1000 Penn... And yes it is, before he was a magician he was quite a talented juggler

  • What is the trick at 1:06?

  • @BinklePlease (6x,4)*. It's a 5 ball siteswap.

  • This guy sounds like a fucking asshole

    

  • confidence

  • does anybody else see this routine as very similar to weston robarts intermediate routine? any takers?

  • thumbs up if you think Jason is selfish.

  • yes Penn Jillette!

  • most of my friends could do that routine without dropping. It's a bit light on content.

  • cirque du solei dude can do 7 balls...

    can u do 7 balls jason? 7 BALLS???!!!!!! HOW MANY BALLS CAN YOU JUGGLE JASON HOW MANY!!!!!

    yea....*walks off as explosion happens in background

  • @Ac1dlicous not that I'm a fan of Jason Garfield or anything, but he can do 10...

  • @Ac1dlicous sorry, but I've seen a video of Jason doing 11... but if your talking about Anthony Gatto he has done 12 rings.

  • @jacus121 Those are flashes. The 10 is of a qualifying run.

  • Haha is that Pen talking? lol love that guy

  • Fantastic stuff Jason, I wish I could do all that!

  • lol

    1.Jason Garfield 9.22

    2.Thomas Dietz 9.04

    he could never quite catch up!

  • @Reverbdude Of course, Dietz winning four overall championships in a row doesn't count as catching up.

  • It sounds like Penn Jillette is narrating

  • He is amazing, but he's a total arrogant fucker.

  • @Markm1r11 Well, arrogant fucker in a cool way. Like House.

  • he is very very good, i've got to say this, but he is too egocentric, he thinks that he is the only good jungger, and that's why i don't like him like a person, but like an artist and as a junggler he is good!but arrogant

  • @louisamstrongthebest He is just joking he is not like that at all!

  • @fnivern i hope so!

  • @andretripicchio2 thats completely true but unfortunately he doesn competes...

  • My herpo

  • That was pretty cool!

  • lol

    "jason garfild won advanced balls competition and he might still not be happy about it"

  • That ball boys bit was hilarious, hahaha.

  • fat boy slim

  • It's nice just to watch a five ball pattern that is SO solid. Of course, the other tricks were amazing, but I have a lot of appreciation for that level of control even with the five ball cascade.

  • ivan pecels 5th wooh

  • jerk !

  • First, Anthony Gatto couldn't definitely do those tricks blindfolded. That is humanly impossible unless he has utter solidness with this routine and could predict where the balls would fall and he would catch them blindfolded.

    I doubt any juggler could perform +5 balls blindfolded. Even flashes. I completely doubt it.

  • Look. Anthony Gatto is slightly different to Jason Garfield. He is probably one of the few ''hardcore'' jugglers that works at a circus.

    You have to see it from a different perspective. Gatto is way better than Garfield at Rings for example.

    Gatto is also better at endurance in number juggling than Garfield is. With clubs AND balls.

    While Garfield shows much more tricks, control and ''solidness'' with his 5 ball tricks and pirouettes than Gatto does. They have a different juggling focuses.

  • Thiiz r gud vedio that maek me smiel :D

  • Dude, why would he try to copy the Beatles Juggler, chris' routine?

    No way man. With that, and his really good performances, my respect for Garfield is neutral.

  • Just to balance this out with a little truth, that is a complete lie.

  • I think Jason only did someone elses routine once, and that was benji's. But he wasn't presenting it as his own, he was doing it as a dig on Benji. I may be wrong about this, but hopefully Jason will chime in with the correct info.

  • Which supports what I'm saying. Yes it was Benji. It is the correct info.

  • Well, yes that he did someone else's routine, but I would not say he stole it. He was not presenting it as his own, he was presenting it as Benji's. This is not something that has happened more then once to my knowledge. and honestly, as a performer, not a technician one of the things I respect Jason for most is promoting the creation of original material in one's show.

    Not looking to get into an argument here an I hope i've not offended you. Just voicing what I have heard and think.

  • I see, You're just not familiar with the concept of what a parody is. A parody is when you make fun of something by doing something similar and usually over exaggerated for comedic effect. The bliss diss video was a parody and other people have the same problem understanding this concept, confusing comedy with jealousy.

  • There is also hubris. Does parody count when you are a parody of ones own self?

  • @JasonRGarfield Jason, Why do you even respond to some of these idiots? They obviously know nothing or little of juggling. You're one of the best at what you do.

  • Never Insult Lord Jason Garfield!

  • Now you're just kissing ass...=)

  • I don't think so.

    I don't know Jason well. but I am certain of his views on stealing material. He will not try to profit on someone else's work.

  • Anyone hear of the Chris Bliss Diss? He definitely tries to profit off Bliss' work. Without Bliss, many don't know who he is.

  • yeah anthony is good and all that but i dont think he could do those 5 ups, and especially connected to 3 ups...or that 3 up 720!!! That was amazing !

  • Okay, I like watching Jason more than watching Anthony, but if you think he can't do 5up 360s your just wrong. Anthony can do 7 club 7up 360s. Watch some of his videos.

  • Hmm, it appears you are right. He seems to be able to do those with ease.

  • Yeah, thath's true. Not the 720's though. By the way, I'm glad you didn't want to start some kind of "youtube-comment-fight", like most people would ;)

  • he's not the best but he might be the best there but anthony gatto wasnt there and a lot of better jugglers werent there ether

  • It's fine to acknowledge that you're the best when you are. But repeating it over and over again like that just makes you look like a douche. I can see you are a spectacular juggler, but I wouldn't want to hang out with you.

  • Ha Ha ha!! ball boys. Whose idea was that??

  • mess up 3 2 3

  • What is the trick from 1:06 to 1:09 called? I can't find its name anywhere...

  • it's called (6x,4)*

    :)

  • I still want to be able to do this routine. Been wanting to since I started juggling, and I wouldn't have started if it wasn't for this man and his strange sense of humour.

  • nowadays some of these moves could be in a juniors routine. juggling has changed alot.

  • i know i remember when i started juggling (1 and a half years ago) and i watched it and i was like wow! but now i can do this stuff its werid

  • that guy is a fuckin douche bag

  • u got some big ass fuckin ears and a fuckin huge honker oh yea u dropped one ya fuckin clown lookin mutha fucka

  • This comment shows how ignorant people can be.

  • you have a relly big ego but i guesse you can have one because you're a great juggler

  • I agree with you thejugglingfool.

    He does have quite a big ego =)

    And heis a great juggler.

  • Comment removed

  • I would have given him a much higher score

  • Awesome juggling.

    Great job Jason.

  • jason garfield sucks balls he is a fag Anthony Gatto is 1,000,000 times better then that fag jason garfield

  • better than Anthony Gatto

  • You cannot compare. Please try not to make these outrageous statements...=/

  • Wow. I know you're probably still mad about it and that you probably have heard this before - but man.. If you hadn't dropped that ball you would have gotten a pretty good score.

  • A good enough score to win though!

  • I am sure surprised that Jason does NOT allow people to comment on the Chris Bliss video!

  • How could I possibly not allow anyone to comment on someone else's channel?

  • Ha Jason, I meant the Chris Bliss Diss video. You still knew what I was talking about. I still don't understand why you blocked commenting on the Chris Bliss Diss video, I thought you liked people expressing their opnions as long as they are not insulting others and being respectfull. Just think about it this way if you don't like peoples comments than just don't read them. It is as easy as that! Also, doesn't it make it more educational if you allow people to comment on the video? People learn

  • People were not exactly being respectful in the Chris Bliss Diss video.  Also, it's kind of difficult to know whether you'll like a comment or not before you read it.

  • If you read the updated description box, you'll see that I disabled the comments because nobody is reading the description or comments. All the comments are still there for everyone to read, yet nobody reads them. They just want to say the same thing that's been said hundreds of times without doing any research. There's no reason to allow the same irrelevant points that I've already addressed to continue on forever. The conversation is over and nobody is starting a new one. Why go in circles?

  • Don't presume I know what you're talking about just because it's clear to you. And consider that if someone doesn't like a video, they don't have to watch it or comment on it. They're coming to my channel and watching upon their own free will. If they keep watching something they don't like, it's their own fault. I do not owe them any rights to comment on my channel. If they want to express their views, they can do it in their own venue.

  • Okay enough said. I just thought it was fun seeing what the novice jugglers thought of your Chris Bliss Diss Vedio! That vedio was good for discussing what good juggling is and what not so good juggling is. By the way I will respect your choice in not letting people comment on that vedio.

  • OK, but if you're going to be commenting on my videos, please spell video correctly.

  • Also, I found anthother website wher you can comment on the Chris Bliss Diss!

  • Its nearly my thirteenth birthday, and Ive always loved your juggling style and technique, so I was wondering, as a tiny thirteenth birthday present that you could subscribe to me!

  • dude if u wanted i bet u could get a WR i have been watching ur videos sence i started juggling 3 weeks ago i studied ur form and videos but lol idk i have mastered all 3 ball and soon to be 4-5ball keep up the great work!!!

  • dood you rock i can juggle 7 rings 7 balls 5 clubs ive looked up to you for 3 years

  • Why does you profile say different?

  • Penn can do the cascade and full shower in the least, its on a video somewhere around youtube

    oh and....JASON GARFIELD ROCKS

  • I just don't like his face! If there was a personality category, this fellow would be fucked.

  • Are you looking in the mirror or at the video?

  • burn-=)

  • is that Penn?

  • Yeah, Penn juggles as well.

  • yah, i've seen penn juggle 3 objects, but is he into to technical stuff?

  • That I don't know. He obviously knows it when he sees it, though. I'd guess he could do a few neat tricks, since his background is in magic and sleight of hand. But I think his emphasis is elsewhere.

  • On another WJF clip, I think it might be a Vova and Olga Galchenko passing routine he mentions that years ago he passed 9 clubs with Michael Moschen.

  • I like his style, he is honest. So everybody in the world can say he is the best, but he don't have the right to acknowladge that? For he to be a "nice guy" he cannot know how good he is? Think about it

  • what an ego....kinda makes me less appreciate his amazing skill

  • hes being funny

  • Skill = good experience in an area which you can perform without thinking about it too much.

    Talent = ability to get a new skill much faster than normally and much cleaner than usually, it's usually genetic.

    Jason -> skill, Anthony -> talent + skill

  • Anyone know what type of balls uses Jason in this video??..

  • he uses balls

  • I'm hoping they are his own.

    I'm sorry ut this just had to be said =))

  • I wonder what Jason thinks about Anthony Gatto...

  • You can just ask him yourself.

  • yeah seriously... anthony gatto is phenominal. compared to the stuff I just saw in this video, jason has nothing on anthony.

  • JASON!!!! I'VE HEARD U HAVE BEEN IN AMERICAS GOT TALENT!!! how did it go???? do the stupid judges apriciate juggling???did u pass??? pliz answer

  • He was not.

    Ivan Pecel was tough.

  • he actally was on americas got talent, him and ivan, i saw them both ;)

  • Jason Garfield?

    Do you have a video?

  • Yes" theory and practice of juggling"

  • Yes "Jason Garfield's theory and practice of juggling"

  • what do you mean?

  • Does he have a video of Jason Garfield on americas got talent, that is what I meant.

  • i don't think so!

  • I do think so.

    Someone must have a video of him on Americas got talent, or else I can not accept it.

  • Comment removed

  • in 2006 he was the best technical juggler !

    now (3 years later ) you watch this video and tell us about better jugglers...

    I'm sure you will be excited if you could juggle like Jason . and don't post text response , just think about it ...

    He is still great juggler so forgive him being to much confident.

  • Comment removed

  • OK I agree with it because nobody after competition look down on others . but I still think he could say this.

    finally he won with his balls routine so he really was the best .

    let's give up with this subject

    :-)

  • The things he does is very difficult.

    And you do not need to use your feet in juggling to be good.

  • so much muscle for juggling

    wat does he practice with? shot puts?

  • steroids

  • Comment removed

  • He isnt that cocky. He is just being funny.

    No body could be that blunt on live tv.

    I like it.

  • come on he did win it he has a right to be confident

  • yeah.. but not an arrogant ass. Jordan, Montana, ect never said stuff like that.

  • I don't like him.  He is WAY too full of himself. I can't believe that he said that on television...wow.

  • I don't really like this juggler...He's not really humble

  • When are the rings at WJF comming back?

  • It has always been ring competetions at WJF.

  • he means at the wjf store...

  • Ah, my bad. Sorry.

  • hey when is etudes for juggling coming out?

  • Comment removed

  • Congrats on that victory. By the way when is etudes for juggling comming out?

  • i hate the commentators. i can see that he shaves-they don't need to say that.

  • Of course they have to say that. Otherwise nobody would know how I spin so fast.

  • you do spin really fast. I'm just surprised that it helps that much...

  • hey when is etudes for juggling coming out?

  • Yesterday I think.

  • lol...koolmagicguy got pwned!!

  • ARE you seroius or are you just joking around. I really need to know now! I just don't think that shaving your body would really help out much. By the way when is etudes for juggling coming out?

  • Anyone know where I can get the whole footage from the tournament?

  • in google videos you can get the full 2005 clubs comp. and the full 2005 ball comp.

  • Is he being super sarcastic or is he really in desperate need of a therapist? I cant tell if hes that screwed up or if hes just a huge smartass that has a hard time expressing himself.

  • i have debated this question with a load of jugglers, he aperes to be an aragant sod *nothing meant jason* but you never know he could just be that way by fault

    /ben/ laughs

  • Penn Jilett... Guess Teller couldn't join him. He is silent but has deadly magical tricks

  • what balls he using?

  • Sport Co juggling balls

  • Can u get them in Canada?

  • good job jason

  • See kids, this is what happens when women turn you 900,000 times.

  • xD he is so ironic. A lot of you dont get it

  • wow talk about a huge ego

  • i found out i hated this in the first 30 seconds of the vid

  • I don't think Juggling should be taken too seriously, Competitions are all right, but having presidency of the WJF... I don't think there is a "Best Juggler in the world" Personally.

  • okay, I jumped to conclusions fast there, but I still don't feel that juggling should be taken so seriously.

  • What is up with this guy? He treats juggling like a marathon or something. Juggling is a hobby, and judging by the video, this guy is a JERK!

  • wow he really is a dick

  • He is, but he's good enough that it's excusable.

  • the balls are there to prove it!

    PWNED"!

  • im not sure you see i would say deitz as i thing on recent preformances that i have seen hes better but you never know with jason. hes very consistant in competition and well i think he may suprise us with some crazy stuff.

  • Hey come on, you don't know the guy. You're basing your hatred off of very few, unreliable sources regarding his opinions and persona. Have you actually MET him?

  • Wow, jason you are such a dick, whats up with that bliss diss, I mean you really must have severe emotional problems, and to hear you talk about youself!! holy smokes, get some counseling

  • Well, you could go on his website and read about it, do some research and THINK rather than just make up your own version of what this is about and then base erverything off of your first impression.
