Description
On this episode of Careers Unusual, we speak to a Professional Jump Roper, Tori Boggs. Boggs started rope skipping at the age of 5 and today she holds more World and National Jump Rope Championship Titles and Records than any other female the sport has seen. The 25-time Grand World Jump Rope Champion and two-time World Record Holder has been featured on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, America’s Got Talent, ESPN, CNN, Cirque du Soleil, to name a few, not just because of her jump rope skills, but also because she performs as an acrobat, fire artist, tumbler, parkour specialist, actress, and public speaker.  We speak to her about her incomprehensible jump rope skills, and how’s she’s managed to leap her way to glory over the years.
