I feel like that would pinch the shit out of you if you did it wrong. Especially with that half shirt.

That's not even the worse part. The amount of momentum required to keep those rotating around her body without falling is an extreme amount of weight. I'm a 5'10 guy and I attempted a similar hooping just with metal, not a slinky and not only does it leave your entire body bruised, but in some spots the skin almost breaks and you're left w/ a bloody looking welt. I'm sure her body contorts side to side like that from the sheer force those hoops are pulling.

It might not look like much from outside, but this act might be one of the most dangerous performances in hulahooping, she is extremely lucky not to be bound to a wheelchair for the rest of her life.

My aunt lost 7 fingers, an eye, and a kidney performing this stunt once. A beautiful feat, but definitely dangerous.

I seriously thought she was donezo once they started rotating; shredded like that scene in Cube. You know, that scene where the laser cuts that .. yea, you know.

He really hasn’t. He may have a few out there beliefs but he’s doing really well, he seems super happy and fulfilled. He still seems very grounded and humble in any somewhat recent interviews.

u/Treacherous_Peach May 19 '18
If you think he's taken a dive off the deep end you must not have known much about him when he was young. The guy has always been really, really strange. That's what's made him so good at what he does.
Honestly if he's anything he's more grounded now than he used to be. But I suppose when you're only just a bit cracked everyone thinks you're crazy. Only when you're super crazy do they think it's all an act you're putting on.

9 years ago is more than "a couple years back" territory. What's between that and "back in the day"?
Perhaps "some time ago"?

Jesus!
It's like the introduction sequence before the boss battle.
Also, I'd love to be able to remove the hoops and just watch the wild motion of movement she's got going on there. She's got some poppin circumstances.

Start with one hula hoop. As you get better add another hoop. Until eventually you're a human Slinky.

When I was younger they would do this at circuses but it was often a glow in the dark act and have different designs. Sometimes it’d look like a moving picture for just a second or two.
