This guy was hanging out in Yoyogi park in Harajuku, Tokyo, on a Sunday afternoon. He has clearly practiced a lot! I loved the music he played during his performance. My friends and I were completely mesmerized. He has a very expressive face too, with a charming smile... it really sells the show in the end. Made me feel like a little kid. UPDATE: This video has been up for nearly a year now and I have some information that some of my viewers will appreciate. First, the juggler's name is Okotanpe - and yes he's amazing - one of my favorite memories of Japan! Second, the song that he uses in his final act is called ???? (soreiyu, spelled using katakana, meaning sun, is the Japanese pronunciation of the French word "soleil", also meaning sun). It is sung by Yoshie Nakano ????. Here's a link to the video: www.youtube.com The beginning of the song is by UA (???) and it comes from an old Japanese folk song: www.youtube.com Here are the traditional lyrics: www.cameraslens.com I don't know exactly what size ball Okotanpe uses in this video (other users have suggested that it is 95mm - 100mm), but you're welcome to ask him. Here's his youtube page: www.youtube.com Also, here's his official webpage: okotanpe.com Here's where you can buy a crystal ball pouch like Pakkun welovegreen.ocnk.net If you're interested in contact juggling, check out this online community: www.contactjuggling.org Hope this info helps! Keep asking if you're confused about anything! A special thank ...

@2:05 the look on the old man’s face is epic
@MichaelHowrie maybe she was trying to figure out of it was some kind of magic :P
wild – i love it!! and he looks so chilled. just think – how much happier would the world be if kids were taught something useful at school for a change – like this!
What size ball does he use? I went to his website put I can’t read Japanese.
I can do that….. Just give me a few years :)
90 person don’t beleive in wonders…
So the first time I watched this I was on LSD… needless to say I was scared shit less… I just re watched the video and… I’m still scared!
So much respect for that man. Awesome video.
WOW. This guy is AMAZING! There’s always something so hypnotizing about contact juggling…I know it’s just physics and slight of hand, but my inner child refuses to see this as anything but real magic.
sugoi ne!
this is impossible !!
4:08 you see that girl in the back on the left corner with the blue skirt. When her mouth falls open and she stood still, it was really funny. “Omygooood”
I think if all the homeless people learned something like this..a bit…they would become milijonairs.
Parabéns.esse guy is amazing
Sugoi *.*
:)
q buen treap el d est chavo uno de los mejores definitivamente
I want to marry him… CUTE AND SKILLED!
@test18258 oh wait nevermind was only around half way through the video when I commented assumed you meant the person who he had pretend to pull on it.
@MichaelHowrie im pretty sure he invites her to notice how he leans over and gestures at her to “pull the string”? then puts it in her hand? but if your not talking about that person then I dont know.
That was fieaking awesome, kakkoii, arigato domo
lol he would have been screwed if he messed up
BIEP on all the haters
XD no realy you are AWESOME!
