Cirque du Soleil's "Wheel of Death"

I saw Cique du Soleil's show, Kooza, today. The entire show was amazing; as usual these people never fail to come up with outrageous acts and stunts. This highlight, called The Wheel of Death, is decidedly my favorite part of the spectacle.

By the way, those are Colombian acrobats Jimmy Ibarra Zapata and Carlos Enrique Marin Loaiza.

How in the HELL do you find out that you are good at something like that?

I've seen 2 different Cirque shows.
First one was in Vegas. Can't remember the name of it, but it's the one with that giant creepy man-baby & I think a big snail comes out at one point o_O I guess it's some little girl dreaming? *shrugs*
And the 2nd one was a show that came to town called Delirium(sp?). That one wasn't very good though. Mainly just some woman singing VERY badly.

I have yet to see a Cirque du Soleil show. I think I'll get some tickets for the Alegría this June in Toronto.

Cirque du Soleil is absolutely great. I have only seen two shows, both on VHS in class, but nonetheless incredible. However, I did get to go to the Cirque du Soleil school in Quebec City this March. I got to learn all sorts of Cirque performances; trapeze, trampoline, Chinese yo-yo, juggling, diving and rolling, walking on balls, etc. and at the very end they all surprised us with a performance! Very great people, and an experience I'll never forget!
