Moscow Circus

Last night we went to the Moscow Circus. I have been to two circuses previously and they were entertaining but could have been better. I was slightly worried that this would be the same, despite forking out $120.00 for the three of us to go.

Wow is all I can say!! It was fantastic, and had me looking like "How did they do that" quite a lot! I even had the lady next to me laugh and say "Look at your face!" when one of the performer's was on. Seriously there is no human way possible that someone can be THAT flexible! It was incredible!

They had a bit of everything there, clowns, acrobat's, jugglers, magician's, miniature pony's, motorbikes, flame thrower's, dare devil's, everything! For something that went for 3 hours, it felt like it had gone in no time, that's how much it sucked you in!



I think that even Jinx liked the loud sounds from the show, cause he was kicking non-stop the whole way through!!!

Master Bumblebee had a fantastic time, and was even more excited about getting a bag of fairy floss to eat. Fairy floss that is now stained on his chin, and made me have a near heart attack this morning when I thought it was blood LOL.


The miniature pony's were pretty funny! That little white one at the back was the naughty one, that would not do what it was told to do haha (For the record, if anyone would like to buy me a new kick arse camera, go for it! As you can see I may be due for a new one LOL) Was very good that they had something there for the little little kids.


This guy was pretty funny!! First he blew up that giant orange balloon with something that looked a lot like the thing you use to blow leaves away LOL He then completely hopped into the balloon, and decided to start throwing his clothes out of it. Master Bumblebee held his hands over his ears to the majority of this performance, he thought the balloon was going to burst! It did in the end, but you didn't hear it!



The Brazil Brother's were fantastic, and made me want to try this one day! They went from inside the circles, to outside and back inside again, with one of the brother's then attempting to walk outside of the ring blindfolded! He did nearly slip and fall off though. He then went onto skipping with a skipping rope on the outside! Insane!



Last but not least, they had the motorbikes. Question for you, how many 125's do you think you can fit into a 4 meter diameter enclosure like this, and be able to ride around safely in circles at 80km/h? Can't be done you say? The answer is 4! How insane is that! It really was a sign of the skill these performer's have! It was the most awesome display like this I have EVER seen. Don't tell the Crusty Demon's this, but I think they have been outdone!


Watch this video and see for yourself! In this one there is only three bikes, but it's still pretty amazing!

All in all it was a fantastic show, and if the Moscow Circus is ever appearing in a town near you, do yourself a favor and go and see it! It is totally worth the money! I will be going again when they come back!
