1. What's the background music? Maybe Mahler will know. It sounds of Russian or some other slavic ethnicity.
2. That is a serious display of strength, stamina and stability.
3. So, now we have proof for the value of a 10 second concentric.

Has to be from one of the Circque du Soleil shows, I'm sure. We saw Circ in Florida and there are some freakishly strong people in those shows.

Yeah, that needed a big banner saying DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME! That would be hard to recover from should you slip! I couldn't believe that the guy on the bottom could push the other guy back up after that split looking thing. And the one armed hand stand on the other guy's head... not my neck, bubba!

No, I did watch the rest before my last post. That's how I could comment. It just took a little getting used to. Guess it's a cultural thing.

Breathtaking display of strength, coordination, balance and grace. Living art.

The music is so familiar. It may actually be a score written for Circe de soleil.

Pretty incredible... especially the shoulder strength/stability and the balance aspects of the performance. I saw a similar act at Cirque Du Soleil in Vegas a few years back. I wonder if it's the same guys.
