Another one of those people who can do "unbelievable" things

Hula hoops. Around your knees, your waist, your chest, your neck, your wrist, your toes . . . while standing on your head, while contorted into a pretzel, while standing stock-still, while making movements most humans can hardly imagine.

The "magic" of Cirque du Soleil's Alegria.

I gasped and cheered throughout:



Enjoy!

Another one of those "unbelievable" achievements . . .

I am absolutely in awe of what some people can achieve through persistent (perfect) practice. [That word perfect comes because of something one of my co-workers once told me: "They say 'Practice makes perfect.' Not so. Only perfect practice makes perfect."

So . . . enjoy the results of some pretty awesome perfect practice:



From a halftime show at the U.S. Naval Academy: a group called the Kings Firecrackers. Truly, a standing ovation-worthy performance.
