Chris Bliss is a comedian and a juggler who has appeared on The Tonight Show and even opened for Michael Jackson on his Victory Tour.

Watching this guy juggle is a competitive sport. Just try keeping an eye on all the balls he’s got in the air and it will make you wonder how he even moves that quickly much less throws and catches things without a single miss.

It’s Christmas Eve, and I think that warrants something special. So, here is the amazing and inspirational story of George Sampson, the 2008 winner of Britain’s Got Talent.

George Sampson hails from Manchester where spent years dancing on the street to entertain the crowds and earn a little money. Right off the bat, that is amazing because he suffers from a rare condition called Scheuermann’s disease, which affects developing bones in children and teenagers and can cause a curvature of the spine.

The condition even caused him to go temporarily blind in one eye for two months around Christmas time, Sampson said to The Sun Newspaper. “The eye was all inflamed. I’d been using Deep Heat for my sore back, so at first I just thought I’d got it in my eye. But I ended up blind,” he said. “The spinal nerves were trapped and it affected my optic nerves, I lost all my coordination and it was really hard to dance, as I didn’t have my balance. I kept bumping into everything.”

Despite the disease, George actually competed in 2007, but marginally failed to make the grade. However, he didn’t let that stop him! Instead, he went home and worked even harder.

Terry Fator won $1,000,000 on the TV show America’s Got Talent. How? Well, he might be the greatest ventriloquist of all time. And he’s also an impersonator, comedian, and a brilliant singer!

I’ve assembled as many of the videos of his performances as I could find to show the road that led up to the win. Sit back and enjoy.

Let’s get this out of the way. The British can’t cook! Seriously, I’ve never had a great meal in the UK, but that doesn’t really matter because I still love you wacky Brits!

Don’t get me wrong, just because they can’t cook doesn’t mean they don’t have talent! And the TV show, Brittan’s Got Talent proves my point. First we had the amazing Paul Potts, then there was the 6 year old Connie, and now for your viewing pleasure, Scala performs Palladio by Karl Jenkins.

In keeping with sharing the best of the entertainment provided over at Britians Got Talent I’ve got a new one to share for those of you that haven’t seen it yet. (Thanks to my father-in-law!)

Damon Scott has a unique variety act that uses a puppet, but in a way that no one has ever quite seen before. This act got a standing ovation and some classic reactions from Simon Cowell and the other judges.

You know, I’m starting to think our neighbors across the pond actually DO have some talent. I previously posted about a guy named Paul who gave a fantastic performance, but now you’ve got to check out this 6 year old named Connie!

When she does “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” she literally brings one of the judges to tears, and even Simon loved her.

Ok, this is a really cool story. A guy named Paul Potts who has a job working at a cellular store in the UK decides to get on stage in front of Simon Cowell and the other judges. Before the show he does a little interview and admits to having a confidence problem.

When he gets on stage one of the judges asks him what he’s here for today and he tells them he’s going to sing Opera. All three judges kind of give one another a look that I read as, “Oh brother….”

The next thing you know, old Paul is belting out a song like he belongs on stage, the audience is going nuts, the female judge (Amanda Holden) looks like she is ready to cry, and well… just watch the video.
