A Chinese ballerina balances on her toes on top of the head of a male dancer during the dress rehearsal for Swan Lake the Acrobatic. The show, billed as the first ever acrobatic ballet, staged its world premiere in March and highlights the innovative combination of Western dance and ancient Chinese acrobatics.
Swan Lake the Acrobatic, is currently in hiatus while Mr. Chen Lee receives treatment for cervical spondylosis.
Producers for the show are said to be rethinking the whole acrobatic ballet concept.

Can you imagine the neck muscle development these guys must have to withstand that kind of strain.
It boggles the mind.
