Chinese Acrobats

After the Houtong village we went to the Chinese Acrobat Theater to watch a show.  All I can say is "holy cow" .  This was the most amazing thing that we have ever seen live.  There were several different acts and not a single one of them left us anything less than astounded.  If any of you are brave enough to come visit us,  this is a must see!


This girl was doing acrobatics and balancing on 10 chairs and a huge stand!  Her life insurance premium has got to be huge!

These girls were being thrown and flipped around all while balancing a glass bowl on there foot.

These are 2 dudes that were balancing on each other going up and down the stairs with just 1 arm!.

These 2 home boys were crazy.  They were jumping rope on the outside of these hamster wheels as well!

How many Chinese lady acrobats can you fit on 1 bike????   Well 12 actually!

This may look like a disco ball but inside there were not 1, not 2 but 8 motorcyclists flying around that cage.

Here they all are afterwords.  I wonder how training went when they first started this gig!
