I am in awe of this, i have a friend who is extremely flexible and i do acrobatics my self, but this in insane! Its possibly the best contortion i've ever seen! =O She's amazing! =D x
Ulziibayar Chimed is a girl. She was only 16 years old when they filmed this. Whenever she performs the backbend, not only is she flexing her spine, but also her legs too; and this causes her pelvic bone to stick out. If you search her name on youtube, you can find a short interview they did with her.
@paperheart38 Ulziibayar Chimed is a girl. She was only sixteen when they filmed this. The "bulge" you're talking about is actually just her pelvic bone. In addition to being able to bend her spine backwards, Ulzibayar can also bend her legs farther back than any normal person can. Contortion builds muscle strength but it doesn't really build any muscle mass because all of that stretching tones the muscles down and gets rid of any visible fat. That's why many contortionists look very skinny.
favorite part is around the minute mark, where she is at that impossible angle. i couldn't do even 1/8 of this stuff when i was at my best in gymnastics! i could put my leg above my head and do the splits in a hand stand, thats about it XD
Well on dvd there was one girl. but in the act 2 years ago in Holland, there were 2 girls. So they update some act now and then. I don't know if tis act with 2 girls is on dvd quality.
@sadmeatcart Cirque du Soleil is all about visual art and anything "random" is supposed to have a symbolic meaning of some sort. I think the character on the crutches is a fallen angel because I can see wings on his back at 0:05. According to my interpretation, he watches over the contortionist(s) because he envies her/them and longs to be free from his injuries.
It depends where you breathe, if you breathe in your stomach, it hurts, but breathe with your ribs... If you know what I mean....... I mean, maybe it's just me..
@Trekkeee Back then, Ulziibayar Chimed's partner was suffering from back problems and had to leave, so for a while, Ulziibayar had to perform the contortion act alone.
What's the deal with the creepy dude on the crutches? I saw this show recently and he was just out there. It seemed very random. And did I mention creepy?
@jennyffer2701 Ulziibayar Chimed is a girl. When she does a backbend, she contorts her body so far back that you can see the outline of her pelvic bone through her costume.
@ember1k it sucks trying to breathe like that. trust me i know. :P u get little bruises on ur neck, collarbone, or chin. :P either that or im doing it wrong.
I've seen contortionists, but the way this is presented with the music, lights and costumes, make it stand out above the rest! Fantastic!!!
i've been to several cirque du soleil shows and she was by far THE BEST contortionist i've ever seen. i was so impressed!!!!!
This is my favorite Cirque Du Soliel show. I love the music, and this is definitely one of my favorite acts.

Do you ever get a leg cramp or stuck in a position where someone has to get you unstuck? This is so amazing!!
Is this a female? I've seen the show many time and have debated with myself over it every time... Still amazing no matter what gender!
