I love watching this. The fellow who was in the white (when the show was in Vancouver) was so cute because he blew kisses to everyone at the end and waved. He looked so serious then he became super friendly. We only had one girl flier, but she was not as tall as these two. Kudos to all of them because it takes an entire team to make this work as beautifully as it does.
Oh my God, when I'm older I want to be one of the two girls in this act!!!!! Still....I have A LOT to go before i'm even half as good as they are!! So amazing!
There are two versions of this song on two different CDs. The first version is called "Misere" and it can be found on the extended Quidam soundtrack. The second version is called "Banquine" and it can be found a completely different CD called "Journey of Man".
@thedrunkspandas The song is called "Misère." It's on the extended Quidam soundtrack. You can also find this song on another Cirque du Soleil album called "Journey of Man." On that CD, this song is labeled as "Banquine."
I cant Believe my eyes! Some of this seems impossible! truly a spectacular performance! Got to go to their show when they come around cleveland again! They make all this seem so easy,they must have started doing this since they were kids.
i've always followed the old fashion rule that standing ovations are meant for performances that are truly spectacular, not as a formality after every performance. i really think that this would deserve a standing ovation.
@GregTheWhat This song can be found on two different soundtracks: the special, extended Quidam CD under the name "Misere" or on another, completely different soundtrack called "Journey of Man" (track 10) under the name "Banquine".
cirque du soleil is the only thing in the world that can convince you that just jumping off of one persons shoulders isn't very high :D it's just incredible, these people are so very, very,very special and truly talented.
@deidaraismine4evr Yup, Oleg and Tatiana at 4:10 and 4:50. They performed the acrobatic pas de deux. There are also two other people from Quidam who went into Varekai: John Gilkey (the skywatcher) and Olga Pikhienko (the handbalancer). All four of them appear on the Varekai DVD but none of them work in that show anymore.
@stefaniewylie That's the acting part of our performance... What makes a circus performer a good actor is how easy they can make their routines look. I guess you could call it physical acting :o)
@izzih1234 Last I heard, Tatyana had to leave due to an injury. Oleg and a new partner were moved to the show Corteo. That was a year ago or so, can't say if they're still there.
I just saw this in Windsor, Ontario a few hours ago. Amazing! At 6:43 though, in the show I saw, it was one of the little girls who they threw up. I was freaking out! How old are they? There were two at the one I saw, and I swear, one of them looked like she was five years old!
you know whats totally underrated in this video? the pain those two guys feel at 1:53 after they jump down...that is a huge fall to just land directly on your feet without stumbling
I hear you. CHEER leading has an explosive element to it to get people amped/riled up. I'm pretty sure if every co-ed stunting cheer team strength trained as supposed to power trained they could do this.
in a way, the begining bit is similar to that of chear leading except. it has stunnin grace and beauty, and control such that its nothing like chearing. if you get me?
I'm guessing it's because you yourself were a flier. I was a base and I totally get what iceskatercharlotte was saying. When bases "Prep" they're gaining momentum in order to throw the flier, where as these guys have no prep at all, literally muscling the "fliers" into the air or holding them otherwise, using their body's "slow-twitch" muscle strength and endurance as supposed to their body's "fast-twitch" power strength.
@pipesoflirael I've always seen it as a man loving a woman with multiple personalities- a good side and a bad side. Eventually she cuts off the other "half" and it goes from there.
obsessed. i've seen several cirque shows over the years but this one act always sticks out in my mind, so amazing.
I love watching this.

Wow! Just saw this show live at the Joe Louis arena in Detroit, Michigan!!! Absolutely fantastic
Oh my God, when I'm older I want to be one of the two girls in this act!!!!! Still....I have A LOT to go before i'm even half as good as they are!! So amazing!
This was my very first cirque show. I love this!!!!

@edumiro82 The title of the song is Carousel. The act itself is Banquine.
This part is the BEST of Quidam !! ♥

@deidaraismine4evr

ITS AWESOME!!! TRUST IS AMAZING. Jump and let them catch you. INCREDIBLE EXPRESSION OF whatever.
@stefaniewylie
That's the acting part of our performance... What makes a circus performer a good actor is how easy they can make their routines look.
I guess you could call it physical acting :o)
it just looks so effortless.....
@MrNick2299 at the Pete in Pitt? I was there, it was incredible
espetacular !
MIND BLOWN
wait for a better show? I have to travell around europe to be able to see this one... :( wish they performed in Sweden:(
@izzih1234 Last I heard, Tatyana had to leave due to an injury. Oleg and a new partner were moved to the show Corteo. That was a year ago or so, can't say if they're still there.
@randonification I don't know what happened to Tatiana, but Oleg is now in IRIS in Hollywood. I saw it a week ago. AMAZING.
I just saw this in Windsor, Ontario a few hours ago. Amazing! At 6:43 though, in the show I saw, it was one of the little girls who they threw up. I was freaking out! How old are they? There were two at the one I saw, and I swear, one of them looked like she was five years old!
They must be in an incredible amount of pain after each show!
@pascuares
This version was filmed in Amsterdam back in 1999 .
it was like the level up of the stunts in cheering squad !!
maybe in the next generation flyers can perform like that too :D
impressive acro! very impressive!
I just came back from watching this in Vancouver. I loved the show but it did not have as many aerobatics as this video, no where near
you know whats totally underrated in this video? the pain those two guys feel at 1:53 after they jump down...that is a huge fall to just land directly on your feet without stumbling
Perfeito!!!!!!
The quad backflip kill my last breathe !!!
son unas reatas!!! estos tip0z!!!
adore this song, what's it called??
@cirqueboy100 Whatever happened to them two, are they still in Varekai? They were also in Fire Within, Oleg is such an awesome guy : D
love the part starting at 3:20 ish. Its so cool!
@kamenriderrakuen10 is this song not on itunes?
I hear you. CHEER leading has an explosive element to it to get people amped/riled up. I'm pretty sure if every co-ed stunting cheer team strength trained as supposed to power trained they could do this.
It's available on CD. I know, because I have it.
Hey does anybody know where I can get this song? It's not on the iTunes album....
el mejor numero lejos
la cancion se llama banquine del cirque du soleil jeje
Hey are one of those girls from Varekai?
amazing international entertainment
I thought that was the name of this troupe.
muzik ?
quidam viene a chile !!!
in a way, the begining bit is similar to that of chear leading
except. it has stunnin grace and beauty, and control such that its nothing like chearing. if you get me?
odoo nya bolson bna lee ichmeer
@kamenriderrakuen10 thank you so much!
Who's the guy in white?
Yo lo vi personalemente !!!!!!!!
I'm guessing it's because you yourself were a flier. I was a base and I totally get what
iceskatercharlotte was saying.
When bases "Prep" they're gaining momentum in order to throw the flier, where as these guys have no prep at all, literally muscling the "fliers" into the air or holding them otherwise, using their body's "slow-twitch" muscle strength and endurance as supposed to their body's "fast-twitch" power strength.
Oh, no worries then. It is kinda confusing how UA-cam groups comments.
@edumiro82 Yeah, you're right. I had two different videos going when I typed that. :)
my friend does her solo to this song
from 4:10 to 4:23 blows my mind everytime i see it
Those women are beautiful! Moving as if they're made of silk! So flexable, smooth and graceful! What i'd give to do that!
ah ye are all so sound lads...
@Josephontheball
Believe you me, under all that makeup & costume, us acrobats are sweating like pigs :o)
the song's not caroussel :-(
@starlite319 right before they threw him up, they threw her up as well
que olimpiadas ni que la chingada esto es la ONDA!!!
@alladinmoua Ah I knew they looked familiar x3
Thanks for answering ^^
The Banquine
I can't even do a bloody handstand in a pool...
the soundtrack is nothing like the actual music from the performances. its really annoying how inconsistent it is. :(
@pipesoflirael I've always seen it as a man loving a woman with multiple personalities- a good side and a bad side. Eventually she cuts off the other "half" and it goes from there.
This act calls BANQUINE... not carrousel, take care--...
