[thanks88]

[novotny86]

i love francescaaaaaaa !!

btw, ulzibayar is cute cute

[superflikkie]

I like this act so much. It's because the way she walks on the stage. When she walks she is just an average girl. But she is so good!!!!

[MadMadMedusasSoul]

One of my favorite acts from Alegria.

[mysticgyal07]

OMG, that's nuts! :O I thought that you have to be really skinny to do that, but obviously I'm wrong because she's an average petite girl. Great performance! :D

Filles Chinois sont fabuleux

[artan2006ny]

That's what I really hate about you, f*cking French. You could have used words "they", "girls", "contortionists", etc. But you chose to specify and say "Chinese girls", when in truth they are not. I met them when they played in London last January, so I would know. Was this speculation about their origin needed? Is it relevant in this context? The French are incredibly racist scums, the have to take the race into account in everything.

[missingheart]

I'm totally sorry.But I think you might mistake me somehow,I'm just a Chinese learning French.It's non of anyone's business to care about other people choosing their own way to express opinion in any languages.Whether my information is right or wrong, you insult people with your "f*ucking" good English.

[sarhaanaa]

"Chinese girls are fabulous"??

She's Mongolian..

[missingheart]

thanks ^^ that's the right information i need

[megapixelrobot]

If anyone cares, the song being played is "Taruka" from the Alegria soundtrack :)

[L3b3rt]

no. its extremely painful. they just have to hide it well, otherwise the audience would be disgusted rather then amazed

[crystal03]

That's not true for most contortionists. Trust me, I would know.

[Akamu]

how dumb

its not painful

I could do SOME of the things she can

[Rubystein]

Exactly. You can see at one point that her legs are shaking. But they get used to the pain, and wouldn't do it if they didn't love their job.

[radeonplus]

Muy buen! Very good! when does circus of joy come to Norway?

[helraizer]

Sex could be very interesting for a contortionist... Lol.

That performance was awesome, freaky as always, but awesome.

[gadgetdan]

i wonder if this is hard for her to do, or if she just it like we bend our elbow??

it is amazing

reply please

i love it

[isaakkk]

it must be hard for her and i don't think it is comfortable for her to perform such play, especially in solo

but it is perfect! :)

[Akamu]

No

its called stretching yur back everyday for 6+ hours each day

I do it for an hour

hehe

I'm really flexible

I can do some of the things she can do

:]

[novis]

Her body is made of rubber....hehehe...too good to be true. But it's true.

[jpsoms]

I watched this on the plane home from Europe!! that 9 hour flight was worth this HAHA

[Aurone]

I wish the Flying Man Act was up.

[Thirshaatheart]

wow, I agree, I love the smile, you can tell she really enjoys what she's doing :D

[velili]

demasiado.. es muy buena en lo suyo.. increible..

[adrisotsa]

O my God she is amazing....

[FeralDaemon]

That's just... amazing.

[elphbwckd]

i think she is the most flexible contorsionist they have ever had! wow!

[noLifeQueen]

omg after seen her i feel so miserable and untalented.......-_-U

[aoitennyo]

Seriously? Don't get so down on yourself! That's an ability maybe one in 5 million people have (okay, maybe more like 500,000). You also have to be born very flexible, almost a birth defect (in a good way) to be able to do that. And this is also the show I went to, very awesome.

[Akamu]

O.o

So I guess I'm part of that 5 million of 500,000 or w/e.

I have the flexibility but not much of the strength. I'm working on it. AND its not a birth defect even in a good way, Its just heredity

[Solstrom2]

me too, well no, but Im working on my flexibility since I was 10 and now I can do almost everything she does.

Im working on the strength also.

[o0EmOtEaRs0o]

This is the best part of the show! I wish I could be as flexible as her. I have no talents what-so-ever except that I'm rather good with a piano...

[Keiko15]

YAY This is my favorite act from the Alegria show!!! She's amazing!!!

[shinto56]

They must had trained since the age of one

[KittyKat525]

she's so beautiful with her flexablity and grace! I'm so jealous!!! My friend wants to be that flexable...

[isaakkk]

[LoveForMe]

Beautiful....
