True accident or pre-prepared accident?

[irobot428]

C'mon ppl your running on a fucking rope of course there's gonna be an accident

[AlliScream]

This was indeed prepared, I doubt it would be on a DVD if it wasn't, I need to point out though, the musicians are trained so that any live mistake of this nature, if it wasn't prepared, seems like it was.

[HardParisi]

True accident

[highlights43]

This was not planned his fellow acrobats were scared as he was!!!!!!

[RossVlogs]

a guy done that in a circus i was at i have a video to prove

[Celahir]

Listen carifully the music, in the first try the music is more happy, in the second try the music changes... This was a prepared accident set up only for the DVD... See La Nouba happen the same thing in the same act.

Escucha cuidadosamente la musica, en el primer intento la musica es mas alegre, en el segundo intento la musica cambia a una mas espectante... Es un error preparado especialmente para el DVD, lo mismo pasa en La Nouba en el mismo acto.

[MrJoosebawks]

obviously it's staged, that's why there's a camera angle for it.

[Cuspoefitacola]

He is very GOOD, get it very well.

[keibee2792]

its true guys

[Miinimo123]

co za asy..

[Miinimo123]

cosas asi

[sexiigurll123]

not prepared.. this is something you cannot plan, plus he swung back up easy, and not like he was acting, that face showed fear.. and you can see he says something like 'im okay' when he climbs back up..

[vaslav030547]

staged!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing will ever compare with the Great Wallenders when it comes to high wire.

[FallenMonk55]

It was not done on purpose, because I watched a show live and I don't remember him failing on the first try. The reaction of his fellow acrobats when he was about to fall should confirm this as well

[Sadiyev]

it can't be prepared because he fell and tried again.

[TheVattacukor]

true accident, if you watch the faces... it's real fear.. not acting...

[tucense]

I think it's better when they mess something up.. It really amps up the feeling of suspense when they wobble.

[carlosd123f4567]

no is true

[CIRCUSROLLY]

OK GUYS IS NOT SO MUCH PREPARED , BUT IT IS EXPECTED OF HIM, MEANING HE WAS REDY TO GRAVE IN CASE OF LOSE OF BALANCE.

[Marvcohen]

Time to find another job

[XTremePicsProduction]

This accident is prepared...however, those of you who know about this should understand that it is also a great art to fake mistakes. It takes many years of practicing and working with the same people in order to achieve such effect. The Quiros are the few of those high wire performers who are capable of executing such feats. There! It's official now.

[Warstar30001]

Prepared :P

[Dihan22]

it was prepared

[BrandonProductions1]

If they keep on doing that pre-prepared accident, one of these days the man's gonna miss, and land on the ground.

[blkcoverboy]

i would say its fake because it happened both shows i went to @ da exact moment lol

[jdragon1012]

cirque doesnt fuck around like that they're to good to have to resort to prepared mistakesto get the crowd going. cmon people you should know this.

[slillis90]

@jdragon1012 Actually they do 'fuck around like that' I was backstage at Kooza last week... those guys are so comfortable on the high wire its insane... even the waving of the arms is an act... they are truly the best in the world and they are performers! It's still a circus and they are there to entertain.

[spook81793]

"pre-prepared" is redundant. its just "prepared"

[pegiSK]

@sorry for my english ;)

[Hope4Africa1]

true



[yumireiku]

or... heres an even better explanation! it was prepared, BUT, he the fall that happened, happened wrong. like using water water AND milk in a recipe, but forgetting the milk and making it all water, the outcome will be the same, it just takes a different path

[hawk8351299]

@yumireiku yes look at their expressions after the "falls"

[yumireiku]

i still think he looks WAY to scared when he reaches the end for it to be acted

[bobbyatopk]

i saw this show and the same accident happened! so its prepared. unless i was at the one filmed here (was this filmed in miami?)

[girtar]

OMG i saw something very similar to this in this same exact act!!!!!! What and where did you find this performance? and when?

[massiveham]

a work with loopholes.....

[geralara1]

what the name of the song??

[pegiSK]

@geralara1 Alambre Alto

[Luciobhz]

The name of the music if Royaume (track 4 from audio CD)

[LinaDawnCirque]

it's not pre-prepared accident becaus his hand hurt he after the fall and he was broke his cap!!

[chewnd]

he is really cute lol

[izzih1234]

@chewnd hahaha so true

[bradporky16]

its very much part of the show. the hat flying off (as seen in this video) is not part of the show

[kurenaisama]

@bradporky16 I love the hat flying off part, makes the act so believable :))

[gps433fool]

@bradporky16 or maybe it is ;)

[jonasvids123]

i was there when they came to miami, its all part of the show the other things tht r part of the show is the lifting of the chair, the person tht the guy picks to pickpocket , the magic trick girl and the wheel of death

[chrisa812]

it was an accident cuz i went to see them recently and they did not fall at all

[ThetaSigma]

@chrisa812 Then you've not seen this show with those people, because thats all part of the show.

[BrandonProductions1]

I think they do this to show the audience that it is a live show, and anything can happen, and anybody can die or something, at any time. and to make the show better.

[Azhan50]

where is the safe wire

[slillis90]

@Azhan50 They don't use one... they're so good it's not nessicary... only in Japan do they use a safety net for the part with the bicycles for insurance reasons!

[julyanax]

YO creo que no , vi el acto entero y se nota que el hombre se pone nervioso en tooodo el acto porque fallaba a cada rato, aun asi me fascino el acto

[MissyArchitect]

@julyanax It WAS a pre-prepared accident. In all the shows he falls soo..

[liveta]

pre planned hahah they do the same thing on the wheel of death when the guy is skipping and almost "falls" another show different city same thing. I find it makes it much more entertaining though.

[MECampbell6]

I just saw this show last night in Seattle and they did the exact same thing - it is obviously planned...

[bullypopful]

I think it's pre-prepared, unless he's got really really good reactions

[SAULOJP]

100% ESSAYED!!! THE BEST!!!

[SAULOJP]

All IT SHOWS REPEATS, THE BEST!!!

[joanmesa]

obviously is not prepared.!!! 100% real accident! look at their faces and their talking!

[Willlikesludwig]

@joanmesa ever heard of a mysterious craft involving people and a performance?

its called acting...

[joanmesa]

@Willlikesludwig NOOOO SHITT!!!!! OMG UR A GENIUS!!!!!

CIRQUE DU SOLEIL: "O YEAH LETS MAKE AND ACCIDENT AND ACT SURPRISED FOR ASTONISH THE AUDIENCE!"...

PLOP!!!!

[kevinmax21]

@joanmesa that's exactly what they did, take a look at the link in the description box to see them do exactly the same 'accident' on a completely seperate performance.

[xangoacrobat]

110% prepared , I can bet

[pegiSK]

see explanation in video details :)

[Waterskisweetie85]

it was pre- prepared accident, i saw this show in portland as well

[MissDanielle024]

i think its a true accident lol duno y?

[rokardy01]

Vicente ever makes that

[pegiSK]

I think it's pre-prepared accident

[dresdfffffddd]

Pre-prepared... I just saw Kooza in Portland. He had the same "accident" at that show. A coworker went to the show a week earlier and I asked him if he missed the first time at that performance... He did.

[DuduDigital3D]

I made this question once, but I think it's a true accident. Repare his patners: they are worried about him and they talk if he'll do it again.
