Nope. "A" for concept, and "A" for performance.

I teach juggling (semi-professionally - I'm TheJugglerMan.com) and this was a first-rate show. All the more impressive since the three jugglers probably only had a short time to internalize your script and rehearse the tricks.

I especially liked how the initial club exchanges made them look like inexperienced jugglers - using two hands to throw and catch. Followed by the real surprise when suddenly there were all those clubs flying, passed by the three people :-)

Thank you for your continuing effort to popularize explanations of how the internet *really* works.
