    5:00 So fun fact about this section! Of course the freezer length will always depend on altitude and vary by location, but a good rule of thumb you can use is to subtract your longitude from your latitude, and it should put you in the right ballpark. Northwest Utah, for example, is around 40° N, 113°W, if you subtract 40 from 113, you will get 73, which is exactly what you stated in the video! But if you go a little more east, you will probably want to use less time in the freezer, which is what I do. However, in Europe, since they use the metric system, you have to add them together. So in the capital of Norway, which is Oslo, at 60 N and 10 E, you only need to leave it in about 70 minutes. That's probably where a lot of the confusion comes from.

    how exact do we need to be with the measurements of the coordinates? I see here that you rounded up the numbers to the nearest whole number, but would it be better if I used decimals? It’s very important for me to do things exactly perfectly every time I do anything ever, so if I’m even 4 and 3/5ths of a second late to retrieve my snow ball, I may combust. If I’m spending my precious time making these beautiful juggling balls, I need them to be the best dang juggling balls the world has ever seen, so I would appreciate some clarification about this. Thanks! /s

    That was funny as hell. You don't give yourself enough credit. Every circle of friends needs at least one person to do stuff like this to keep the bond alive. For what it's worth, I have six of your Taylor Tries balls, and they are my absolute favorites. Still working on 4's (24 catches is my best, might try changing my rhythm to find a better flow) and hope to progress to five eventually.

    I loved this. Spectacular. It's so NOT your usual personality that it was obvious to us long term fans. I adored the YT BS touches like bigging up (ugh) an "ancient method" and things. All it was missing was the long discussion on how your grandmother got you into juggling and whenever the snow falls you remember those days as a child watching her make snow chainsaws (or whatver nonsense usually precedes such things). Wonderful. Have a lovely festive period and hope your nose has stopped bleeding by now.

    I arrived from a first time view of Mark Hayward on top spinning. Initially I figured I should just give up because where I live in South Louisiana, our snow is not only rare but when it arrives, it makes terrible balls. I carried on nonetheless because I have access to freezers of all temps, shapes, sizes and performance.....I figured, "Louisiana snow can be managed with the smartest freezers!" Finally, after shaving ice that was tempered and homemade (because no snow,) my snowballs never got any bigger! Organic snowballs must be key....did you mention this somewhere? Now I'm at the comments and trying to figure out where I went wrong. 🤔And while I love a challenge, I'm just gonna buy some plastic juggling balls and carry on with learning. We do have an airport with high ceilings so hope is not all lost! Thank you for the fun and I watched the entire video because it truly was entertaining. Great work!

I've been trying to learn how to juggle with 5 balls for several years now and 2 out of 10 times I can do a 5 ball flash. However, I just can't seem to get past that point. Do you think you could do a video on how to progress from that?

    A few years ago i tought like you know what? Lets start learing to juggle for no reason. Then after a few weeks i stopped because i tought like nah.. all these people saying they are learning everything in a day or 2.. I'm apparently not made for it. I kept thinking that till once i just tought maybe i just need to give it a second chance. I searched for some turtorials until i foud you're channel. Everything is getting explained and presented in a very nice way. A way i would love to do all those tricks as well. And now here i am juggling the miles mess like its nothing. I learned how to juggle 4 balls. I learned how to juggle the box. You wanna know why? Because YOU yes you taylor, you gave me the motivation to keep on going. And now when im kinda having a difficult time, i get my 3 balls and do some tricks. Get isolated from this stupid little world im in and do my weird little cool hobby and now that gives me an relaxed feeling. Thank you so much for making all those videos. I cant even explain how a turtorial not only makes me learn something new, but also makes me a whole lot happier. Sorry for my english but we love u taylor 💜💜💜

    Because of how well this works big companies don’t tell there secrets. I now know Taylor has been researching this technique this whole time. I also can’t believe how well the mess came out. I tried this back in 2016 April the first. I didn’t use Utah snow so that is probably why mine didn’t work as well. Also for a better result use a Sony freezer because the electrolytes will add a cool design. And like Taylor said if it doesn’t work you defiantly made a mistake and you need be be better cause it is 100% your fault it wasn’t perfect.

I get the snow, make the ball, dye it, put it in the freezer, but when I take it out, it just crumbles. And it sucks, too, because I live in Florida. I have to _so far_ to get snow and I can't afford plane tickets. So I'm driving like 16 hours each time and I have to bring a freezer with me. It's such a pain. I don't know if I can try again for a while but if anyone has some tips, please help me. ;)
