A gif of me juggling 3 chainsaws is on the Apple IOS! On Saturday night a friend of mine who lives in California sent a text that I found very cool.  He said he was sending a text to a friend and wanted a juggling gif for his text.  He entered "juggler" into the search field on his iPhone and the first result that came up was me! Although no credit was given to me,  and no one asked if they could do this, I thought it was super cool!  Of course, I would have preferred if it would have said "Ian Stewart" somewhere on the image.  But I just like my work being out there,  especially on such a widely used platform as Apple iPhone! It's a loop of a video I posted on Youtube:  https://youtu.be/OoJW-_OeFtw At first I…

This week I appeared on the German version of the "Got Talent" franchise called Das Supertalent.  A great crew to work with, some incredible entertainment to work with, and an audience that was a lot of fun to perform for! Das Supertalent was my 3rd got talent show! A few years back I performed on Canada's Got Talent.  Sadly it only lasted one season, and they never aired my appearance.  I was featured on the commercial as well as mentioned several times in the promotion.  The producer even said in an interview that I was the funniest act on the show!  But sadly the show wasn't well put together and failed to get ratings so there was never a second season. Then in 2015 I performed on Americas Got Talent.  They didn't air my audition either, but they aired my…

This week I had the chance to visit the beautiful DeCost Centre in Pictou to enjoy a performance by the Mud Bay Jugglers. The DeCost Centre is a great performance venue in Pictou, Nova Scotia.  I have enjoyed many shows there over the years,  the last show I saw at the DeCost before the Mud Bay Jugglers was magician Ted Outerbridge with his Clockwork Mysteries tour.  A great magic show and a great performer.  I had the chance to Ted in Calgary a few years ago when we were on the same bill,  and it was great to see him again.  His website is http://www.tedouterbridge.com The DeCost Centre's website is https://decostecentre.ca and they almost always have something on the schedule of interest to everyone. The Mud Bay Jugglers Don't juggle chainsaws The Mud Bay Jugglers don't juggle chainsaws,  there was no danger,…

I was delighted to see an article about my favourite Guinness World Record in the Halifax Metro Newspaper. They did a story on my record for juggling 3 chainsaws for more throws and catches than anyone else has ever done. Here's a pic of the article:   A great article,  but I had to laugh when I read it.  It says "Nova Scotia Native Ian Stewart set the world record this past September".  Sadly,  it is currently 2017 and I broke that record back in 2011.  Regardless it was nice to be mentioned! I sent an email to the writer of the article and mentioned that i had recently broken a few more records,  but received no response from the writer, Sean Plummer of Halifax Metro News.  But again,  a huge thank you to Sean for taking the time to…

[caption id="attachment_285" align="aligncenter" width="585"] Ian Stewart in Vegas[/caption] I spent the last week in beautiful Las Vegas.  I had time for a lot of fun, food, exercise and shows!  My go to is Absinthe which I watched for the 3rd time.  Always a great show,  but was sad that Melody Sweets had moved onto other things (you can still find here here:  http://www.melodysweets.com).  If you're ever in Vegas and looking for a fun show,  this is a good show,  Sweets or not!  http://www.absinthevegas.com/ When I arrived home I checked the mail and found that Guinness World Records had sent me certificates for 2 more chainsaw juggling world records!  I have a few more records I've broken awaiting approval from Guinness,  but I'm getting closer to my goal of 12 records.  They don't list the 2 records on the website,  but…

I returned to the Atlantic Outdoor Sports and RV Show this past spring to do some chainsaw juggling for the crowds.  I love this event as it's a really fun show,  and the other acts have included things like log rolling, dog shows, stunt bike riding and even wrestling. Here's a short video of me juggling the saws at the event [embed]https://youtu.be/YUElUi8W9QE[/embed] I have been here for many years and hope to be back again as the Darwin Event Group puts on a great show evertime! Update:  January 8th, 2018:  I've just been invited back for another year!
