Obviously fake. And a poor one. An insult to his legacy and a comment on how easily people can be taken in.
-
is this a bunch of pictures of him put together?
-
Does any real footage exist of Nijinsky doing his famous jump ?
-
ugly fake
-
is les orientales a single piece of music or is it a lager opus?
-
He is a MASTER jumper
-
fake of course

There is a story, maybe you all have heard it, that when a European King saw Nijinsky perform "Le Spectre de La Rose", he came up on the stage afterwards and demanded to be shown the springboards, because he simply refused to believe any human could jump so high.
-
the movies and the songs composed in today s times are nothing but the reflection of human s insanity. this dance and music are so gracious...

Despite the lack of footage. I think the tales of this gentleman's dancing are to be believed.
My French grandparents saw Nijinsky dance on, I believe, four occasions. Grand'mere said that he 'defied gravity...there seemed to be a point in those great leaps when he was suspended in the air before coming back down again to the stage...his beauty and art were such that, like a vampire it drained one of emotion and one went around for days afterwards, dazed and only half-alive...'

I promise you christiancomte-this one literally took my breath away when I clicked on the video. I am overjoyed!! I believe this is for real-and I have seen Nijinsky dance for an oh-so-achingly brief instant! 5 Stars Christian-the most!
