Just a Glimpse

Can you do this??

We went to the Shanghai Circus today, which featured Chinese acrobats (and thankfully, no clowns). I've seen many acrobatic performances before and they will always amaze me. They do all the craziest things, their bodies are incredibly flexible and they never fail to fascinate the crowd.

One of my favorite performances was this one, it was a man and woman using a long cloth that hung from the ceiling to wrap themselves in and swing around the stage, doing awesome tricks. In this particular picture, the woman had wrapped the cloth around her legs and the man is suspended in the air, holding onto her with only her arm!! It was so elegantly done and romantic. I wish i could do that :P
