What if he got smaller balls? And further oiled his balls? Would that improve his limit
Since smaller balls means more you can grip and throw farther in the air with less effort, while lubrication would decrease the resistance and ease of getting it out of your hands or smooth release
A third thing to consider is performing at a higher altitude, such as on a mountain - since gravitational force decreases / gravity gets weaker- leaving you more time for each catch
So yea 1) smaller balls 2) lubricated 3) pitched at an indoor stadium in Denver or Wyoming. He could possibly hit 16 and break the world record by maximizing all of these conditions

You've looked at what the juggler can do themselves to juggle more, but why not investigate changing the juggling balls themselves? Smaller balls would help holding them in your hands, lighter balls would reduce the strength required. Maybe denser cores too, so the balls can be even smaller without getting too light. What indeed are the optimal size and weight of juggling balls, and how does it vary with the number thrown? Any researchers out there?

I'll tell you why it's almost impossible to juggle 15 balls. 15 is an uneven number. Good luck trying to find a guy who's willing to admit they only have 1 ball. It's even more unlikely to find a guy who has 3 or 5 balls let alone 7, 9, 11, 13, or 15 balls. But then again, the title says almost impossible.

For someone to achieve more than 11 I'm assuming they are gonna have to be younger than Baron, but same height and experience, since accuracy is the main factor, then reflexes are gonna matter as well, and younger people tend to have better reflexes.

Ehhh so annoying hearing him saying he has the speed. If he practiced he too could do 15 it-s just practice why he act like hand speed is like a shoe size is beyond what I can understand.

This freaking guy why it's almost impossible to juggle 15 I think you're like way over the impossible number I couldn't save my life if it depended on me juggling four balls

-Thats right, Alex has flashed 14 balls-
I'm pretty sure I beat that record before. the teachers and security guards weren't too happy about it though

I am currently at 5 but I don't plan to expand to higher numbers
Because it's time consuming and I think that some 3/4 ball tricks looks much cooler

Awesome video. I used to be into juggling quite a bit, but I could never do more than five. Three ball tricks is what I enjoyed the most.

Weird how this video didn-t feature American politicians, especially considering they speciallize in juggling balls, with their mouths.
