Devil Sticks!
Did you get it right?
- It’s unclear why these are called Devil Sticks, but they also go by other names like Flower Sticks and the more generic juggling sticks.Â
- No one knows the exact origin of the Devil Sticks, though Wikipedia claims that it has Chinese origins. That could very well be true, but nobody is certain.
- The first verified use of Devil Sticks was in 1820 in Prague, where two brothers Mooty and Medua Samme from India would travel around and perform what they called “Chinese stickplay.”
- Firesticks are also another variation on Devil Sticks. These typically have an aluminum core and fuel-soaked wicks on the ends that can be set on fire.
- These were often used in junior high gym class in the ’90s at the height of its fad. Did anyone actually get good at using these?
