The ribbons of the two dancers in "Chinese Tea" manage to tie themselves together -- about 26 seconds into the video. The main frame shows the resulting tangle; the inset frame shows the correct dance (the next performance). This dance has been performed at least 25 years, about 10 times per year; this performance is the only time the ribbons have knotted.

  • If I were your teacher/director, I would be extremely proud of how you handled yourselves in this situation!

  • You guys rock! If that happened to me I would just run off stage and the audeince would hate me, but you girls just laughed with the audeince and kept dancing, and they loved you guys for that! You guys are awesome!!!

  • As they say "The show Must go on"! You guess acted very professionally! Good work

  • really good job. keeping continue is really important things on stage.

  • HAHAHA! happened to me on stage before and i went to the back of the stage to untangle it. HOW UNPROFESIONAL.

  • @Giogionanni

    and not only, I would add that those who appreciate the real dance should not look at these errors as they are mechanical errors, if it was that one of the dancers or both did not finish the dance then you would have challenged.

  • @dancerdream1

    no chico :D Yo diría que gran victoria para ellos porque han demostrado que pueden salir mal :) ^.^

  • is in moments like these that we see the real dancers and these girls have been shown to go in front of difficulties, even in public.

    It does not matter if it came wrong or if the tapes were knotted, the important thing is that they are successful, in my opinion with great style, to complete the dance.

    Congratulations to these fantastic dancers

  • FAIL!!!!!

  • hehe.. i would of done the same

  • best reaction ever!
