Last Saturday, I stopped by Sparks Street to check out the Buskerfest, Ottawa’s annual street performer festival. I love street art—it really makes cities interesting and fun.
I spent over 40 minutes watching this contortionist from Australia. Unfortunately, the only flexible part of my body is my fingers. I can bend them in ways that would make you cringe. But I can’t do splits for the life of me and I can feel how tight my muscles are when I do yoga. Which, by the way, didn’t make me more flexible in any way.
Oh well. I guess I won’t be a contortionist when I grow up.

I guess this guy DOES NOT live outside the box.
Have a great weekend,

😆 Well said! That could have been a great caption for the picture. I suck at titles!
My fingers are stiff as pencils 😀 I don’t have a flexible body, so I guess I can’t even imagine to be a contortionist. 😀
Trust me, having flexible fingers isn’t a great life perk! 😆
I bet the Chinese are good at this! Their flexibility is amazing!
Aw… I blame my French genes then!
Regarding neeraj’s comment, how come I don’t have the flexibility of the chinese when i myself is of chinese heritage? :p
These contortionists can really make bends that will drop your jaws! I wonder whether their bones are made of rubber lol!
I guess it’s not something you inherite like that! I always wonder if these moves are painful for contortionists.
