Bonny Sisters classic contortion

[Feelthypictures62]

I saw these wonderful performers at circus Willy Hagenbeck as a youngster. They carry very well even today. I have not seen a more attractive pair of legs than the top mounter's on any performer, then or now. She is in fantastic condition with a good back and good range of skills. The ending reverse planche, anyone? Thanks for the memories!

Yes it is Bonny Sisters. They are Danish and they are real sisters and still alive and fit. They are my aunties. I know that they never seen this recording before, so it was a pleasent surprise.

I think they are the Bonny Sisters, at a french TV circus show (la Piste aux étoiles), Cirque d'Hiver, Paris. Later, one of the girls (the blond one I think) worked alone under the name of "Miss Bonny".
