There are some videos that are almost too remarkable to believe, and this is certainly one of them. Prepare to watch in awe as two dancers from the Chinese New Year Gala perform a jaw-dropping "Butterfly Lovers" routine that mixes both acrobatics and pointe skills. This mind-blowing dance is definitely one of the most amazing things I’ve seen in a long time! Their sheer grace and strength proves that humans are capable of doing incredible things.
During the routine, I was struck by two particular movements. Notice how her legs flutter like butterfly wings as she's held up, totally inverted. Just beautiful! Also, how perfectly the male balances the female, literally and figuratively. The female dancer is as a light as a feather, thin yet toned. The male dancer is nothing but pure muscle, able to lift her any which way and in any position. Together, their performance gets more and more impressive the longer you watch. And just when you think the couple has shown you all they’re capable of, the tiny ballerina stands and twirls on pointe on her partner’s head.
If you're utterly impressed by this performance, too, then please SHARE it with your friends on Facebook!
