Juggling in Movies

Casper Comes to Clown (1951)

[I. Sparber animation; Alan Shay, Jack Mercer, Sid Raymond, Arnold Stang]

Casper the Friendly Ghost befriends a bear cub with a natural talent for juggling. Soon the cub is in the circus, but a gorilla proves to be much scarier than any ghost.

At 03:54, in 4 shots over the next 30 seconds, we see Brownie Bear walking on a hoop and balancing a tin can on top of a stick on his nose, while doing a 5 apple cascade.

At 04:50, we see a sign promoting the sensational juggling bear with a picture of him doing a similar trick.

At 05:12, Brownie Bear is on a tight wire in the circus, doing a 5 ball shower. A few seconds later Brownie Bear is showering 6 balls, while balancing a beach ball on top of a stick balanced on his nose. And a few seconds after this, he is doing all of this while also walking on a hoop on the tight wire.

At 06:32, the film ends with Brownie Bear walking on a hoop on the tight wire, while balancing a beach ball on top of a stick balanced on his nose, with Casper standing on top of the beach ball doing a 4 ball shower.
