"I watched this and I fell off my rainbow chair! This is a video of three eleven, fourteen, and fifteen year old girls who are apart of the Cirque du Soleil company. It is crazy! It is definitely an odd job! Now I know that this video is long so if you don't want to watch it all skip to about 3:30 so you don't miss these girls do what I can only explain as a "Rolly Polly"."
"Contortionist make anywhere from nine dollars to thirty-three dollars per hour. It is no spectacular paying job so the athletes who perform contortion tricks do it because they love it. There are many opportunities for young contortionists in gymnastics and dance as well. You could even use your knowledge and ability to teach classes or make YouTube videos like Katrina and Sloane did in this Aerial tutorial."
"I would not want to pursue a career as a contortionist because there is a very good chance of injury, and the payment isn't very good. Also like most show business opportunities you do not have a long term job, once the circus is done touring you no longer have a job. Most contortionist have an abnormally flexible back meaning no matter how hard you work to be a contortionist, you have to have a certain body type and natural flexibility to be able to perform it safely and properly."
