Georgian traditional dance is crazy
I would break every fucking bone in my body trying to do this shit do they even wear knee padding i just
holy shit this is amazing.
holy goddamn this IS amazing.
But if you watch closely, when they land on their ‘knees’ they don’t really land on their knees. They’re taking their weight on their forelegs and not going down right on the joint (because yeaaaah).
What gets me are the spins! They’re spinning at like double the speed of Western ballet! Holy whirling dervish!
This is fucking witchcraft.
Not. Humanly. Possible.
jesus christ. I sat here with my mouth hanging open through the whole thing.
a dance battle with these guys might actually end in some corpses.
THIS MAKES ME SO ANGRY
Sometimes it baffles and bemuses me that something like ballet is chosen to be the world standard for an art when things like this exist. How is this any less demanding or incredible?
