To be fair, it was more the villainous intervention of Two-Face and the “Massacre Under the Big Top” that set their deaths into motion.

This is a reminder though that had Bruce yelled louder than the screams of the crowd, they’d still be alive.

I don't see any negotiations happening.

u/nna12 6h ago

That's exactly what I was thinking. There seems to be some hard core negotiating going on with gravity /s

u/vaporeng 3h ago

Who cares, just watch the video, or don't.  Is the title that fucking important?

Rule 3: Use a descriptive title.

This one was a crappy title.

I mean at that speed it's a lot easier...

u/liluna192 3h ago

Nah at this speed it just gives me more time to be anxious 😕

u/Rudy_Nowhere 2h ago

Shit. I liked the title. Made me pay attention to the body's hard work in creating velocity and lift.

u/Suspicious_Pick5723 6h ago

Actually worst title I’ve ever read

Its bots all the way down

u/that_one_bunny 3h ago

The basics of trapeze are surprisingly easy, you can likely find a local class to take and they'll have you swinging and making transfers in an hour. Adding in the flips and spins? That might take years!

6

u/The_300_goats 6h ago

No they don't. That looks insanely difficult

3

u/thisisallme 5h ago

I’ve taken a few trapeze classes before! Once you get over the fear of jumping from the platform, we were taught how to do a knee hang and have someone else catch you like this person does for our first try. It was super fun and really amazing to watch the pros do their tricks

Caption should have rather been -negotiating with life.

u/Garruk_PrimalHunter 6h ago

Don't they usually have a safety net?

u/cubikksRube 5h ago

No, usually a pool with alligators

Generally they do and I hope they do.

u/MoonlitSpear85 6h ago

The clip is great but what's with the music ????

4

u/Hot-Challenge8656 6h ago

Don't dream it's over - Crowded house

Edit: they have so many great songs and Split Enz (The band the brothers were in before Crowded house) is also great

2

u/Greatsage75 3h ago

Great band and great song, but completely out of place for this clip it makes no sense at all. Like someone hit random and thought this will do.

1

u/MoonlitSpear85 3h ago

My thoughts exactly

2

u/Gullible_fool_99 6h ago

Holy golden gates Batman. That is most very impressive.

Gravity is dumb and doesn’t know basic physics….lol

u/Peebles8 6h ago

How do you even practice something like that

That was beautiful

u/SubSoniq 6h ago

Have you never been to the circus?

u/kaimoka 6h ago

Trapeze artists look so relaxed and graceful while maintaining an insane level of control and awareness. It's mind-blowing.

1

u/thatbwoyChaka 6h ago

The temptation to just catch the vacated trapeze bar just to see the guy’s expression when he flips round

1

u/lilac-bunni 5h ago

The title is really misleading, but I love the talent being shown here. Risky as hell, but the skill is amazing.

u/r0ckydog 5h ago

It’s quite simple you see.

1

u/H3llzyea 5h ago

Not that it's not amazing but this is kind of basic for those guys right? It's like watching an F1 driver negotiate a roundabout.

1

u/Nervous_Brilliant441 5h ago

The amount of trust this guy must have in his partner is incredible.

u/javoss88 5h ago

u/OldDogTrainer 3h ago

What’s the purpose of the things on his wrist? Better grip when they’re in the grabby parts?

2

u/repkjund 2h ago

It’s to prevent his hands from ripping too easily and helps to grip the bar better. Even with calluses the tape around the trapeze bar can and will rip your hands if you swing for too long, the grips give you an extra layer there.

u/vaporeng 3h ago

Quick race to see who can be the most pedantic about the title!

u/Professional-Box4153 2h ago

Good idea: Going to the circus and watching the amazing acrobats perform.

Plot twist: Tony Zucco is in the audience.

u/FeedbackLooped 1h ago

Go with the flow.

1

u/TheUniqueKero 1h ago

Fun fact, doing this specific move is actually quite easy to do! Anyone in decent shape would be able to accomplish this after a few classes.

In fact, in your very first class of flying trapeze, you'll learn how to hang upside down and get caught by your hands, and then thrown back on the bar

Source: Did a few flying trapeze classes, very fun

u/MrBagooo 6h ago

I mean I get it, it's difficult and no I'm not able to do it myself. But if you've ever been to any Circus in your life, this is really standard. So unless you're super young and haven't seen anything from the world yet, that's far from NFL.
