Revision as of 12:50, 24 January 2010
This is a list of juggling world records for solo juggling of clubs, balls, rings and bouncing balls as well as the two person passing records for each of these props.
The records for each section are split into three groups.
- The "most official" record with each number. These records can be proved only by video evidence, either available to the general public or to the members of the Juggling Information Service Committee on Numbers Juggling (JISCON).
- The "unofficial" record with each number, where the record is equal to or beats the official record. These are usually personal claims by the named juggler, often with witnesses. It should be remembered that it is notoriously difficult to accurately count catches for any attempt beyond a flash without resorting to slowed down video footage.
- Records with lower numbers of props. These records can last anywhere from 20 minutes to 12 hours so video evidence, even if it exists, is not easily available for anyone to check.
Notes on defining the props:
- Balls, which include beanbags, must be roughly spherical objects.[1]
- Clubs, which include sticks and batons, must be long, roughly cylindrical objects.[1]
- Rings, which include plates and hoops, must be flat, roughly circular objects.[1]
- Bouncing balls must be bounced off a solid, flat, horizontal surface with just one bounce per ball between each throw and catch.
Records begin where each object being juggled has been thrown and successfully caught at least once (e.g. 11 catches of 12 balls is not listed).
Solo Records
Props must be thrown individually from each hand, and counting of catches commences once all props bar one have been thrown. Multiplexing (throwing more than one prop at a time from the same hand) is not allowed. Catches are counted only for throws made while no props have been dropped (failed to be caught and held onto).[1]
Clubs/sticks
Solo club records from JISCON or with publicly available video evidence:
- 9 sticks for 9 catches by Bruce Tiemann in 1996 (video),[2] Scott Sorensen in 1997 (video),[2] Chris Fowler in 2003 (video)[2] and Daniel Eaker in 2009 (video).
- 8 clubs for 16 catches by Anthony Gatto in 2006 (video).[2]
- 7 clubs for 4 minutes 23 seconds by Anthony Gatto in 2005 (video).[2]
- 6 clubs for 7 minutes 38 seconds by Anthony Gatto in 2005 (video).[2]
- 5 clubs for 53 minutes 21 seconds by Thomas Dietz in 2005.[2]
Balls/beanbags
Solo ball records from JISCON or with publicly available video evidence:
- 12 beanbags for 12 catches by Bruce Sarafian in 1996 (video),[2] Ben Beever in 2001 (video), Peter Bone in 2006 (video)[2] and Brian Koenig in 2007 (video).
- 11 beanbags for 15 catches by Bruce Sarafian in 2001 (video).[2]

Passing Records
When passing, only the props thrown between two separate jugglers are counted. In some patterns (ultimates or one-count) all the throws are caught by the opposite juggler but in a few patterns each juggler makes some throws to him- or herself. If these self throws were counted, two jugglers could make a single pass to their partner and then go on to juggle solo patterns for as long as they wanted.
The JISCON only tracks club passing. The top records for ball and ring passing are not officially tracked by anyone but some video evidence is available for various numbers.
