petermorwood:aprilsvigil:manticoreimaginary:Watching this (and fearing broken ankles with each loop) I can’t helping thinking about that old quote Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did, except backwards and in high heels.But no, if you watch closely you’ll see she doesn’t even step on the last chair. That means she had to trust that fucker to lift her gently to the ground while he was spinning down onto that chair. That takes major guts. I’d be pissing myself and fearing a broken neck if I were in her place. Kudos to her. Damn, they’re good. I remember seeing a comment somewhere that Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly were equally good dancers, but with Kelly you could see the effort he put into it, while with Astaire you saw the grace. And though not in this clip, Ginger Rogers did do everything he did, backwards and in heels. Including the grace… -- source link
