Paul Sahli

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paul Sahli (born 24 April 1948) is a Swiss juggler from Lostorf, Switzerland.

Sahli holds 64 world records, and claims that this is more than any other living person.[1] This record is contested, however, by Ashrita Furman, who claims to hold 67.[2] All his records have something to do with balls and/or juggling, generally with his feet.

A selection of his world-records:
