Vintage juggling film

Enrico Rastelli, 1896-1931, is often cited as the greatest juggler who ever lived. This is the only film of him known to exist, made in 1929 at the La Scala Theater in Berlin, Germany. It includes juggling 4 sticks, juggling 6 plates while spinning a ring on his leg and skipping a rope turned by two assistants, jumping rope with a soccer ball bouncing on his head, soccer ball head rolls, brief juggling of 5 and then 4 large balls, and bouncing 2 balls on his head.
