ABSTRACT:
A torch for juggling comprising a hollow, elongated body with a wick at one end surrounded by a wire reinforcement, a spark-generating mechanism carried within the body, and a pushbutton located on the end opposite the wick to operate the spark-generating mechanism, thereby igniting any fuel held by the wick. The spark-generating mechanism is preferably a piezo-electric spark generator with an electrode that passes through the hollow interior of the body and emerges on the outside and just below the wick so that the electrode and the wire reinforcement are close enough for a spark to jump the gap and ignite the fuel. The torch can be lighted simply by pushing the pushbutton just before the start of the juggling or during juggling.
