Our friend Scot Nery, an accomplished pancake juggler, comedian and all around awesome performer, offers up 8 reasons normal people should juggle. Scot teaches juggling classes in Hollywood and has also produced a DVD on how to juggle.

Juggling is a really good exercise for life. It has a lot of the fun parts of a soul sport (working to better yourself, non-competitive activity, etc.) but isn’t dangerous — unless you’re juggling fire or pancakes or something. That’s why I want everyone to learn.
