Cirque du Soleil's "Wheel of Death"

At first I was like

But then I was like
<:O

They should be called the loco circle riders. Innnn. Saaaaaannnnnne! (love Cirque)

That was absolutely terrifying!

I love that part of the show the most! I even applauded re-watching it! Lexie wants to try it now.

If I'm ever a trillionair, I'm buying everyone tickets!

I remember seeing this stunt at Ringling Bros and Barnum and Baily way back in the 90's

This may not be original, but is always fun to watch.

They've actually recycled this from Kà, although I don't blame them. The nature of Kà makes it kind of impossible to do a touring show, like Koozå appears to be.

The close second favorite was a quickie. They had a guy on stilts step on a see-saw and get vaulted backwards towards a mat, and he stuck it. Stilts, and all!

That's some real Spider-man stuff happening at 01.07 :O

Hey! I'm one of the clowns in the show and a neatorama subscriber! I wish I would have known, I would have given you a backstage tour. Glad you had a good time!

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!

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

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.

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