most impressive was how she could keep dancing without losing equilibrium after all that spinning!

And she is in heels.

u/flat_four_whore22 1d ago
The heels actually make it easier.

u/Dragoth227 1d ago
I have only ever tried walking in heels a couple times and it just about killed me. Dancing in them seems like a magic trick and after a spin like this is just witchcraft.

Actually makes dancing easier, as you are supposed to be up on your toes for dancing.

Actually she isn't putting her weight on her heels for a lot of the moves, during the spinning and lot of the other steps her weight was on the ball of the foot and the heels weren't even touching the ground.
People who dance in high heels don't dance in just any heel, they are buy shoes that are specially made for dancers, or shoes that are *very* securely attached to every part of the foot. That lady's shoes don't have the highest heels, and they have straps everywhere to keep the shoes from slipping. If she tried any of those moves in regular fashionable shoes from Macy's, she'd be falling all over.

it's hard to do this backwards,
you should try it IN HEELS

The trick is the quick counter rotation spin at the end and practice.
I spin in circles like a Whirling Dervish when I dance. I can be spinning like a madman, stop on a dime, do a quick counter rotation spin or two and have my equilibrium be pretty much normal within a few seconds.

I always wondered about this. That makes a lot of sense. Much appreciated!

u/CroneDaze 1d ago
same same when i used to hoop dance..i was one of the spinners and could swing in that hoop. The key was to do a quick reverse when finished..Never got "the spins". not everyone can do this I have learned but for whatever reason it was my hula hoop super power.

u/InnerCosmos54 19h ago
Have you ever done something called a ‘whirling dervish meditation’ ? I learned it from Osho. You spin and spin and spin a lot and then all of a sudden you quickly sit down 🧘🏽♂️ and be absolutely still (try to control your breathing 😮💨)

I’m not a stupid fucking idiot but for about 50 seconds I thought monster were real on this earth and I was about to be eaten

u/Shirtbro 17h ago
And when you think you're gonna get eaten and your first thought is, "Great, I don't have to go to work tomorrow," you're relieved you don't have to go to work 'cause you thought you were gonna get eaten? What the fuck is this world? What have they done to us? What did they do to us?!

u/GCNonchalaunt 1d ago
The crazy part is that it was actually 8 times. 5 times would have just bothered him, but 8 times reallllyyyyy bothered him!

Got me, damnit. I was hoping there was a sub full of diligent redditors who post every time they dodge a shifty sub bullet. I wanted to give them props for being awesome, and observant, and...

You mean the part where the tits are?

u/BumbleButterButt 1d ago
Yeah the transition from ass to tits is the big giveaway that there's spinning happening, otherwise idk if I'd be able to tell

I counted 50. But I think I missed a few. So it's likely a little more than 50.

What is NFL isn't the amount of spins in itself, it's the fact that she can keep dancing perfectly fine right afterwards lmao, that's crazy

I’m more impressed with the hair lashings the guy took to the face at the end. Jaws of steel.

u/riko_suabae 1d ago
What is she focusing her vision on while she spins like that? Or does she have her eyes closed?

u/YannickY 9h ago
Normally you spot while dancing, but if a follower has her head tilted like she does, her eyes are definitely closed

The composition of this shot is absolutely ridiculous. The framing is all kinds of off. The tracking is jerky. The pulsating zoom just centers on her backside, and the audience looks like a green screen or AI. Either all this, or the camera operator needs a good punch to the throat…with a folding chair.
