Roll up, roll up. It's time for some entertaining circus science experiments. Juggling Scientist Dr Ken explores the scientific principles behind skilful circus tricks and dangerous stunts.

Hold onto your seats as he eats fire, cracks whips and juggles 5 beanbags - all in the name of science.

Find out why jugglers love gravity, unicyclists keep moving to stay still and if friction can be your friend.

It’s science but not as you may know it!!!
