Kung-Fu Flying

No wires are needed for these Shaolin monks to fly. This is the only video I found of it in use. It's short but exuberant. The wind tunnel seems to have come about by an accidental meeting of the Latvian architect and a representative of the Shaolin monastery.

Here's an frankly unbelievably awesome video of Maja Kuczyńska doing her routine for Wind Games 2017. Might give the monks something to aim for!

Some of those photos feel like a Simon Stålenhag painting.

That's amazing and deserves its own FPP.

There was an FPP on the 2017 Wind Games that included Kuczyńska's routine.
