Trampoline awesomeness (SLYT) I think I'd enjoy watching a Cirque du Soleil show a lot more if the performers skipped the costumes and just wore tshirts and shorts.

I'd still crack my head open on the side of that wall, either way.

Found via gizmodo.

Parts of it are like watching a video game.

It's like watching a Terry Gilliam movie. It's just... unbelievable and cool and darkly industrial (all those battleship-gray panels? and the ledges?).

And it's skewing my sense of gravity pretty badly. My brain keeps going "Nuh-uh" each time the acrobats don't smash themselves into the ledges, or whenever someone vaults up onto the wall-top and balances there without tipping over the edge.

One of the most amazing things I've ever seen was the Cirque du Soleil 3D IMAX movie.

That's right:
1. Cirque du Soleil
2. 3D
3. IMAX
