He was hooked after meeting an extreme unicyclist during a trip to China some years back.

Eichholz has been unicycling since he was nine, but he became tired with the same old routines and tricks.

"At first, when I was looking for something challenging, my friends and I took to the parks where skateboarders and mountain bikers were doing tricks," he told a German newspaper.

Eichholz plans on retiring soon and completing a degree focused on urban planning.

With views like this, it's hard to believe he'll ever give up this extreme sport entirely.
