From my youth up I never liked the city.
I never forgot the mountains where I was born.
The world caught me and harnessed me
And drove me through dust, thirty years away from home.
Migratory birds return to the same tree.
Fish find their way back to the pools where they were hatched.
I have been over the whole country,
And I have come back at last to the garden of my childhood.
My farm is only ten acres.
The farm house has eight or nine rooms.
Elms and willows shade the back garden.
Peach trees stand by the front door.
The village is out of sight.
You can hear dogs bark in the alleys,
And cocks crow in the mulberry trees.
When you come through the gate into the court
You will find no dust or mess.
Peace and quiet live in every room.
I am content to stay here the rest of my life.
At last I have found myself.

This could revolutionize strip bars worldwide.
Pole dancing without the pole!
I didn’t even know Indoor Skydiving was a sport/competition.
It’s kind of a manufactured one, and rather expensive to pursue. The business model seems to be to get people in there for assisted introductions, get those who are hookable hooked, and periodically have skilled staff perform to show you what (costly) practice might allow you to do solo. She’s dramatically better than the usual demo, though.
Wonderful stuff! I too have never heard of this sport, but it’s beautiful to watch!
Reminds me of Heinlein’s wing-dancers on the Moon, in “The Menace from Earth.” Nice to see that we can do it now on Earth!
My husband and daughter took me to do this for my 63rd birthday. I didn’t look quite like that… more like a cow flying around in the airborne debris of a tornado.
And….. it’s….. FLANNELPUTZ for the win!
This is in Japan, right? Right?
It was followed by the fish fart smelling contest.
Uh, well, no Doug. Not Japan.
And not Japanese.
I see the wires.
Just kidding. I did see one of these in the Denver area, but didn’t know the set up. Cool. I love seeing greatly talented young people like this. Not kidding.
Aw hell, anybody can do that … Hold my beer, Gerard!
One more thing …
Flannelputz and Schill, I’m pretty sure when you see my fat ass rolling around in that wind as I belch vomit at you through the glass, you’ll NEVER think it looks anything like pole dancing again.
Frankly, edaddy, I suspect I’d have a similar reaction to watching you pole dance. 😉
Heck , even a mediocre pole dance will hold my attention better than this does.
But then I am a deplorable… or maybe just 1/1024 of a artsy fartsy
My first thought was “the enemy’s gate is down”.
Logan’s Run without the exploding person at the end of the dance.
Yes, amazing and mesmerizing, but all I could think of was Charlie and the Chocolate Factory:
