These are several videos of avante-garde juggler Michael Raynor (aka brokenjuggler, who kind of reminds me of an even crazier Benjamin Linus from Lost and I imagine lives in Venice Beach, California) performing some very outside-the-box juggling and balancing and devil-sticking and rolling a flaming cheeseburger around a parasol and
