This is a video of an act from 1944 - a sister act called the Ross Sisters.

I had never heard of them. The song they sing is about 45 seconds long (nothing special) but what they do next is...!

I don't think I have ever seen a human being do some of the stunts they did!

I can imagine it, because I'm flexible myself and it's not fun, I wonder how their bodies feel now, I wonder if they've had babies and if everything has gone well, I wonder if they needed hip replacements. I wonder if any of them died suddenly because a blood vessel or organ ruptured, because being that flexible isn't normal and the same types of tissue that hold joints together holds other bits of use together and that can be a problem.

Howdy!

Oh, those were simpler times, weren't they?

And then I read that they were from Texas: oh, my.

Now I'm thinking of potato salad:

I've seen the contortionist from the Archaos circus do something like that - they were a French-based outfit, motorbikes instead of horses, juggling with chainsaw etc. But you'll never see her on YouTube - I saw them twice (I think) and it seems she couldn't get through her routine without her bra falling off near the end. Such incompetence.

I bet you have always had issues with circuses then. (G) They are good, but it is just standard contortionist stuff. You see the same kind of stuff at circuses that still have sideshows, and occasionally in the main rings.
