Cyr Wheel Act - CORTEO (Cirque du Soleil)

[drunkcheri16932]

In a world that many people are going to feel sadness and anger and cried wrapped is standing idly I

In Japan, there are expecting a huge tsunami of people were uncultivated

There are grief in the US If you see the performance live realized the meaning

The wonderful human being threatened to be had been fascinated

I try to your wonderful stage until I love and meet the people to live in if you feel

Thank you very much.

[katlover369]

im dizzy just watching that..

[canadianbaconbro]

kinda like a variation of the german wheel in Alegria

[nowai1994]

I do this at school

[stupidaccountlinking]

18 people rolled over their fingers trying this.

[behest]

if you like the guy with the long hair, it's worth watching the whole show on DVD. he's a main part of several big acts.

[gangpow5370]

where can you buy a cyr wheel?

[Sketchyvx]

@gangpow5370 you can get them from oddballs as well as any other item you may need, the cyr wheels are pretty expensive though :/

[filchyboy]

@gangpow5370 I build such wheels. I just opened an etsy store to sell them. Search for 'roue' on etsy.com to find it.

This video is the very first thing I ever saw of these wheels on the internet back in 2006. In October of that year I arranged to buy my first one and have been spinning ever since. They are so much fun!

[musicgirl1026]

2:25-2:26 What a great shot. ;-)

[SytheClaw]

in* sorry

[SytheClaw]

awsome act also wat was that guy skating is at the start? they look fun

[MultiRickyFlores]

when does he mess up?

[circussecco]

Would love to see this in a real circus and with a real horse.....

[danwright32]

I'm in the process of learning Cyr Wheel right now. I'm a few days in and its the single hardest things I've tried to do in my entire life. They make it look so easy and graceful, and I'm in awe

[Manya741]

My favorite number! Very beautiful music!

[jamiebby1218]

doing all that tightens ur butt lol :)

[akatsukifangirl11]

that's so COOL

[NerdyK1000]

omigod this is truly amazing

[SooBeautyFull]

I remember when I went to this show a couple of years ago - I fell in love instantly with the guy at 0:50 (the man with his hair tied back). All of my attention was on him the whole entire show! And I was like, what - 11 years old? Haha.. 16 years old now and I'm still insanely in love! I need to marry him.

[mountaindew267]

That looks so fun...but I would get dizzy and throw up all over the stage, and I guess that wouldn't be good for the show. :(

[DeeJay1441]

That would be someway to travel. xD

[thelmsrmall]

awesome!!



[RageOfMercy]

amazing

also what's the music?

[musicgirl1026]

@RageOfMercy Anneaux, one of my favorite Cirque songs

[whoami9966]

@musicgirl1026 thank you, was wondering what it was called. very dreamy track.

[JonaBay]

I want one of those

[jamafrican657]

The geometry in this, is exquisite.

[flyingmonkyman93]

where can i buy a wheel?

[admx94]

They are totally getting it on in that Cyr wheel...

[relica666]

beautiful show

[2212json]

I f I tried that the crowd would be covered in puke!

[Slipsnob]

@2212json

That would be pretty impressive on its own. XD

[claudiaiveth1]

they are coming to my home town :D

[cash78626]

whats if you were spinning inside that hoop and u dropped or went upside down and it landed on your hands OUCH

[koolio411w00t]

holy balls that's cool :D

[zuzulover100]

3:41 just when u think its over

[show750]

i really like this it is good talent

[Commentgal12]

*gasps* omg what if you run over your finger

[WolfDarrigan]

I got to play on a Cyr Wheel today... Really, REALLY fun if you don't get sick from spinning.

[ribb3rs]

is anyone else dizzy?

[LAURENdatbenik]

Does anyone know the names of the gymnasts?

[urssulaneves]

the guy with the long hair tied back is HOT

[OutcomeCritical]

@urssulaneves

u can say that again :)

[OutcomeCritical]

this is soooo beautiful live !!

[JonSwait]

@urssulaneves thats Stéphane Beauregard

[urssulaneves]

@JonSwait thnx :) hes ridiculously good looking lol

[reckllesLIFE]

@urssulaneves i think the second guy is better..:D

[ritsfata]

Man, the whole synchronized bit is incredible.

[Lovelytreehugger]

I am always in awe of Cirque shows, and the performers. They are incredibly talented. When I watch this, though, I can't help but notice how BEAUTIFUL they all look. I mean, I am sure they are in tip top shape, but the performers are really beautiful in this act!

[0ArtemisSimetra0]

i haven't watched this in years, i love it! so graceful.

[0ArtemisSimetra0]

i haven't watched this in years, i love it!

[pang5]

Dreadful camera work, though. Too many close-ups and fades so that one can't actually get a true sense of why the audience is suddenly applauding. :(

[meiriona]

@pang5 most of the Cirque du Soleil vids seem to have camera work that does not at all do the acts justice.... it's like they're saying, yes, you can take it home, but it will never be like what you see live.

[CharlieSchenck]

What's the symbolism with the horse and guy walking on the ceiling?

[Leanan101]

How do you do that without throwing up?

[KrimpenDrummer]

That looks like so much fun, now I want to have such a ring/wheel

[Fearthebait]

Everybody in this show has to be so dedicated. Not only are these acts insanely difficult, but the peak physical condition you must be in to do these things 8 times a week is unimaginable.

[monmarc1]

cest vraiment tres bien, et dire que cest un quebequois  qui a partis laffaire, je lui leve mon chapeau.

[sharpey3000]

come on that was easy i do that every time a go to work i just grab my steel wheel and ride it to my office

[alextorian82]

a lot physics involved and calculation should have been palced here, but I guess it's more communing with the intuition to feel the laws of physics, rather than calculating. But of course timing is calculation, but beside that, the laws of energy and physics are just being used at it's most uncommon way. Laws that are present but are not usually used by humans! So that's the magic of going beyond our normal physics laws.

[IPunchaUInTheFace]

It's just amazing how every show makes that little stage look HUUUUGE.

[ArcaneFaerie]

Has anyone noticed the Chartres Labyrinth symbol on the floor? It's an ancient symbol of wholeness that combines the imagery of the circle and the spiral into a meandering but purposeful path. I think it's amazing that they picked that as the floor design, i love it.

[wittyworldlee]

shit i'd puke after 15 seconds in

[Gogglesonme]

@ashgala spoting in roue makes it easier to get dizzy

[Gogglesonme]

i can't beleve he fell!!! O.o i mean i know support spins are hard, but people pay so much for these shows and he doesn't even have the act down?

[ritsfata]

@Gogglesonme Dude, they aren't gods. There is no WAY anyone can do a perfect act. People like it when they screw it up sometimes, it reminds them that they're human just like the audience, and it shows how incredible it is when they do get it right. :)

[Gogglesonme]

@ritsfata yeah i guess, i just find it really annoying because so many roue cyr artists put that trick in their shows and i've only seen like 2 land it, and yes it's impressive still but i think that if your going to put a trick in your show you should be able to do it... and believe me. I know about messing up on stage, ;) and one of the fun things about performing is fixing a mess up so the audience doesn't notice. but i still ... am rambling now, haha. sorry ;)

[Slipsnob]

@ritsfata

I still worship them. @___@

[pokinoiombra]

@ritsfata I second that. :) In Kooza, they do a Wheel of Death act, and in one part when the guy was skipping rope on top of the wheel he tripped. He caught himself, but no one could look away for a second after that.

[ultraviolentblue52]

@pokinoiombra They fake the trip for exactly that reason.

[pokinoiombra]

@ultraviolentblue52 ...Well damn. O_O

[ultraviolentblue52]

@pokinoiombra Clever ah?!? =D

[Yicarilla]

stop at 1:31- the woman with the evil eye!

[NuestrasRaicesNew]

me puedes decir como se llama la musica esta bien buena porfa ok chao

[niamhb438]

The only open their hands so that they don't get crushed

[rentik1988]

Very cool

[AidahoAirlines]

it looks even crazier when you're actually there, it's an amazing show!!! I'm truly blow away! Saw it today, and I'm going to go for the second time soon

[kestin46]

PPPPPFFFTT i can do this no problem...haha

[sintofg]

@kestin46 That's what we all would like to think :D haha :P

[Impartial15]

Bet they get dizzy...

[aznxkigga]

this is crazy, it would be so easy for them to hurt their hands without hand grips.

[mskittyfantastica]

c'est magnifique

[vampmoonstar]

whats up with the fake horse?

[ThePuzzlegamer]

I've been to Circus LA twice once in 2006 and the newer one this year, they both made me glued to my seat, I bought the movie, soundtrack, and book :P

[jackieeveryoneloves]

That is magical!!!!!

[Cuddlebunzzz]

@chickenhead411 it's called the Cirque Du Soliel CORTEO soundtrack. u can buy them at the shows and probly online, but the CD i have doesn't have the version of the song used in this video.

[xlaif]

k bonito video del circo du soleil con estos cuates k pueden hacer todas estas cosas

[lacostealligator44]

HURL MUCH?!?

[MrHalil29]

die haben einen guten Magen :)

[danhoppy]

fuck me, Id be sick.

[missyreaper]

cirque du soleil is the best creation of mankind

[thi711]

These people are not human.... I really do mean it. Their dedication and strive for perfection has pushed them beyond the realms of a normal human being.

[PlasticAstroBoy]

@thi711 its our way of life, theres no other way to achieve it other than to totally dedicate yourself to it in every way, even though theres always the possibility you wont succeed :)

[shmoofoobean44]

I wAnt OnE !!!! D:

[DeathAngel0208]

What song is this?

[smrtkoala]

@DeathAngel0208 its called anneaux. its on the corteo soundtrack

[DeathAngel0208]

This is amazing... I love this... I cant even put it into words, really i cant...

[SecondhandBen]

Oh dear, if I was doing that I'd get sick from spinning so much. Ha ha... it looks very fun though!

[PikoParty]

i would be willing to bet most of this is a bit easier then it looks... (i do german wheel) except the spirals... those things would be really effing hard. also the cartwheels.. those would be fairly difficult as well

[sisterzen]

I want a go on that hoop :@)

[ThumbsUpVids]

heads or tails?

[WitchGirl94]

Oh.... Okay^^

[TheBlackShadow101]

thatsll be FUN to do

[Tmarie111]

I'm dizzy just watching!!

[ilussionordream]

i think is bautifull

[ShaolinKungFu93]

hey, those are the guys from the Teeterboard act.

[youcreek]

Doesn't this kind of stuff just make you want to do it for yourself because it looks so fun!?

[catkong66735365760]

Practice and lots of it.

[lnhssn]

I agree

[WitchGirl94]

How can it be that these guys don't squash their fingers when they are doing that?!?!

[ChrisRocks25]

@WitchGirl94 when their hands reach the ground they open their hand

[fogo66]

deve ser muito bom fazer parte desse mundo magico e encantado com certeza sessação unica

[camilotor4]

[13thstigma]

[thewordisquirky]

Is there a name for the first guys wheely things?

[electromaster7]

the 3 men are in this show (cyr wheel act) and the Teeterboard Act , they can do 2 shows in corteo , perfect.

[franco2587]

es de los mejores vides....bravo

[LaUnicaChico]

I saw this show so many times in person and every time i saw it, i felt the same funny hard 2 explain feeling. No matter how many times u see this in person u will always love it.

[netlizz1]

Потрясающе !!!!

[itzybitzysamuria]

For netlizz1 :You guys know that means 'amazing', right?! this IS freaking awesome performance! agree w/ you!!!

[ghostshooter97135]

what kind of music is this? its feakin sickness....

[nixspatin]

Es uno de mis actos preferidos jamas creado por el cirque du soleil. Me emociona cada vez que lo veo. la musica es preciosa

[masterjoma]

La chima re vacano.. los mejores

[sintofg]

I love this act, and yea there are so many artistic elements in it that it's  almost surreal 0.0 plus I love they way they use color in many of their shows, as an artistic person with drawing in color, I get a lot of my inspiration from these shows :D

[Rachieee58]

i ahve a question, wouldnt they like roll onthe hands?

[SHadyLAdy70]

No, because if you look closely the open their hand when they roll upside-down.

[Levier1]

@SHadyLAdy70 ...that was the stupidest thing i ever heard. remember the fact that if they didn't they'd roll the wheel on which their own weight is resting over their fingers?

[SHadyLAdy70]

@Levier1 *shrugs* I was just clearing up some one's stupid assumption.

[yonutzky]

@SHadyLAdy70 if they don't open their hands, they smash their fingers.look closer and you'll see

[choirquer]

@SHadyLAdy70 Well if they don't they smash thier fingers

[CriqueCirque]

no is u look closely they lift their fingers when they go upsidedown

[MrPenguin1981]

awesome. these people are unbelievable

[joystarz]

dizzy..

[NovxST]

where can I get one of those circles?

[nixspatin]

el mejor

[smrtkoala]

this is my favorite act

[josecitoperecito]

No offense, but I truly believe that Cirque du Soleil is everything but Human.

[littlemissflo]

I totally agree with you. Every time I watch a clip my jaw just drops open and I can't believe what I'm seeing.. it's pure perfection, their every move is flawless.

[smrtkoala]

nice eye! i never noticed that!

[CHOKORETA23]

sorprendente guauuu estupendo trabajo¡¡

[Phantomsbreath]

I was there. And it was fantastic. Every technique was perfection.

[CarolValeSouza]

Alguém poderia me informar o nome da música?

[Kodanikage]

How do you do that without crushing some fingers?

[BoredChemist]

it looks like whenever the part of the hoop where their fingers are is about to touch the ground, they open their hands so only their palms are touching the inside of the hoop

[TaiMurong]

Cirque Du Soleil is Amazing. but I think Quidam is one of their best shows.

[gino2284]

i so totally agree =) i memorize all the songs in quidam. the music is absolutely lovely =)

[MimiPants4]

Quidam is great but I think my favs are Alegria and Varekai. All the shows are amazing though!

[mandato88]

circu de soleil

i am love

i am brazlian

[MusicLaughLoveLife]

ces si vite! uno de mes favorites

[raksoavlis]

aguila o sello de que lado va a caer la moneda :P :)

[laguasapa]

pues no se supo jajajaja

[princess1937]

Bueno, pero el Circo Chino no tiene muchos de los actos que tienen aqui.

[calumhead]

The Chinese Circus can do that so much better.....

[CaptinSS]

wow Cirque du Soleil cannot be any better than it already is. ( :O The music just brought that amazing act together as well as the people.

[ritsfata]

It can get better, as amazing as this act is, this is one of cirques worst shows. Don't get me wrong, for your first cirque show ( if it is your first) it is spellbinding and mind blowing but it is definitely not cirque at it's best.

[CaptinSS]

no not my first. I used to watch it on Tv as well. I think anything like this is amazing if I'm not an expert at it lol. which is practically anything of the like

[k3sito]

well, yeah it can get better but have you see it live?? damn, i think is one of the best shows you can see from cirque du soleil!! (and man... i work here, i know about it :D)

[ritsfata]

Yes I have seen it live, and all I'm saying is this is NOT cirque at it's best. Ok?

[maulcs]

@ritsfata What do you consider their best then.

[ritsfata]

@maulcs Kooza and Varakai

[Gogglesonme]

@ritsfata KOOZA! :D

[14love4music]

I would have gotten sick by now or at least REALLY dizzy!!!!!!!!!
