For lack of anything else, here’s something my mother sent me yesterday.
It’s a clip of the Ross Sisters from a 1944 movie. The fun starts about a minute into the routine. At 1:35, my jaw hit the floor. And the most impressive parts were still to come.
It’ll blow your mind – with or without sound enabled.
Hmppph. And I can’t even touch my toes.

On one level, that’s just creepy.
Um. Gee. They just do NOT make them like that anymore.
I’ll bet those three were REAL popular around the commissary, eh?
Those girls ain’t right. I wonder what’s in that potato salad they’ve been eating!
I’m with elizabeth… that just ain’t right! Amazing, but kinda gross, too.
And that was before they could digitally enchance that kind of stuff like they do today! But it still kinda creeps me out.
OMG! My back is killing me!
That was amazing and it kinda creeped me out, too.
Holy COW. I have just downgraded my flexibility rating. I thought I WAS flexible. Nope.
Ewwwww!!
Holy Moly…. talk about some serious core strength! Can you imagine the barker at a circus side show? ‘the amazing women, part snake, part cat, AND they can sing!’
Strange routine to showcase their skilz, heh.
Wow. How did your mother evern find that?
Holy Moly. Wowza.
EEEEK I’m kinda creeped out too! But, I wish I was that limber.
And then this came up just now on Gizmodo. Eeek!
Looks like the first version of circ de soliel!
I’d love to know who sits around and thinks, “I bet if I stretched real hard I could sit on my own head.”

That’s some serious lumbar flexibility. OUCH.
