Vicki,
Aren't people amazing :clap: This probably is what saved these guys from a life of poverty. I know we have no where near the problems of Chinese acrobats! But I have to admit, this balancing act reminds me of the delicate balance we artist have to assume if we want to make a living as teddy bear artists bear_ermm I know I am constantly balancing every day.

bear_shocked I don't know which to be more amazed with....the skill of the acrobats.....or the fact this was captured on film by Edison that long ago. Just think, that was right after electricity had come, and the cinemas started.....wow!!!!
