At 23-years-old, John Narum is the youngest person to ever win the World Yo-yo Contest. After losing a friend to cancer, he began volunteering at a Children's Hospital. John started doing more yo-yo shows than contests. And loved it. After being on America's Got Talent in 2014 he started noticing the yo-yo was no longer a toy he
happened to be good at using, it related to people, and their constant pursuit of happiness and a purpose in life.He currently travels the nation doing yo-yo shows of all types - talking in schools about the science of yo-yoing and entertaining big businesses at their leadership summits.
But what John enjoys most is this idea that something that fits in his pocket, can bring smiles to an entire room.
