The Wheel of Death - Cirque Du Soleil - General

[url]http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=efb_1314428695[/url] This is intense. I remember seeing Cirque Du Soleil live years ago, it's great entertainment.

My god, that's amazing. My heart skipped a beat when he nearly fell while skipping.

Simply incredible. I love the parts where it looks like they're floating.

damn those guys are talented.

For those wondering, this segment is from [url=http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/en/shows/kooza/default.aspx]Koozå[/url]. I've been to every show that has come to Melbourne since about 1998, and I can't wait for this show to come down here.

CIRQUE DU SOLEIL IS NOW HIRING Apply inside Requirements: 8 testicles

[QUOTE=Ninja Duck;31987988]Tell us how it is when you see it![/QUOTE] Unfortunately that will take a while, the last one was only here just recently, and they only come here every two years. And it was a repeat; Saltimbanco - which sucked because now it's an arena show instead of in the big-arse tent ("Grand Chapiteau"), which I thought was way better back in either 98 or 99, I forget which. Edit: If wikipedia is to be believed, it looks like the next show in Melbourne will be [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ovo_(Cirque_du_Soleil)]Ovo[/url], for some reason next year instead of 2 years away, and thank god it's in the tent. [QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;31988061]CIRQUE DU SOLEIL IS NOW HIRING Apply inside Requirements: 8 testicles[/QUOTE] Unless you're a contortionist. Too much bulge.

I remember watching it about 3 years ago maybe. It was my second or third show, and they never fail to impress. Seriously, if any Cirque du Soleil shows are playing in your town, go watch it. It's a blast.

why was i expecting fire?

I saw them when they came here last year but our stage wasn't big enough for anything to this standard. Either way they are talented as all hell.

This makes me reconsider my career choices.

I love how they managed to use the momentum of the wheels to jump.

I'm a huge Cirque du Soleil fan. I've seen a lot of their shows. I hope they give tours of their headquarters in Montreal. When I move to Canada.

that looks like lots of fun

Cirque du Soleil made a mini series a few years back called Solstrom. I really recommend you watch it. [video=youtube;G2NeTOJM1R4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2NeTOJM1R4[/video]

For them to do that stuff [i]that[/i] easily, it must be really trivial/everyday to them.

I remember watching this act live, Kooza was a pretty damn awesome show overall. I definitely recommend it to anybody interested.

looks like fun

That was fucking awesome.

I like the part where they jump. Reminds me of the Vomit Comet.

That looks cool as hell, it doesn't look too hard to just swing around on that and walk normally. The tricks they were doing require balls beyond count but it looks really easy/fun to just walk in that.

I need to see this

It looks like a bizarre carnival ride.

I guess saying "join the circus" should be a compliment.
