The KOOZA Wheel of Death | Cirque du Soleil

[@Gr0]

Kooza and this act specifically has lived rent free in my head for over 10 years since my first cirque du soleil show at 15. To have it available in HD on youtube is awesome, thanks for the upload

[@carlitoscirque]

proud the be in this act and this video filmed in 2007 Toronto Canada . the best wheel act . by cirque du soleil im still performing the wheel but now a Drawn to Life by Disney+Cirquedusoleil .

[@CirqueduSoleil]

❤️❤️❤️

[@beanerama9]

Now that's wicked, man! Kudos to you!

[@jaypeterson8747]

Do the 2 people doing this have to be exactly the same weight?

[@Fakeslimshady]

how are you still alive lol

[@Benoit-q8k]

Salut ton frère de sk8.....

[@lancerichard722]

The music accompaniment just magnifies the brilliance and excitement of this amazing act. These guys are incredibly athletic and talented. I watch this video with the sound up loud, 2- 3 times a week. Never get tired of it.

[@greencliffsbluesea]

And the sound is even better in person, so much energy and really accentuates the amazing moves they are doing

[@staceytroffer8287]

These are 2 very talented guys. Beyond talented. I don’t even have the words to describe. Incredible.

[@amazingandrea9983]

Just saw Kooza (for the 5th time, Calgary and Madrid) in Vancouver last week. It was as sharp as ever. This act has me gasping in fear and admiration every time! Worth every dime you pay!

[@CirqueduSoleil]

Thank you so much! We appreciate all the love and support 😊

[@dmoney668]

These are two of the greatest athletes of all time. The mental strength alone to do this is unbelievable

[@Aj-me8mo]

This is my favorite act from the whole show, the soundtrack is phenomenal and the guys had me on the edge of my seat especially when doing the jump rope. It’s a goal of mine to see this in person one day. Cheers, Cirque

[@sandrinhomasterboy1765]

It is the best performance I saw in my whole Life ..

[@Yibblet]

"Bro let's hang out" *somehow us 5 mins later*

[@sofiah6997]

I would’ve been holding my breath the entire length of this performance if I saw it live.. who needs to pay for the whole seat when all you need is the edge? 😂❤

[@vickyschnorbus4166]

These folks beat sports athletes all to heck and back for talent, fitness, and everything else. They're fantastic ‼️

[@mmakid]

We went to watch Kooza in September. It was amazing!!! I thought it was expensive when I bought the tickets, but I changed my mind after the show. It is worth every penny!

[@CirqueduSoleil]

We really really appreciate that thank you!!

[@rutlandcitybikes9729]

That was amazing!! Cirque du Soleil shows are the best live action I've ever seen!! Can't wait to see more of them!

[@CirqueduSoleil]

And we can't wait for you to join us!

[@DavidVogt]

I will NEVER forget seeing this in person. It's the single most impressive thing I've ever seen in my life.

[@CirqueduSoleil]

We’re thrilled you loved it 💙❤️💚💛💜

[@argentosebastian]

Cirque du soleil. I think this is the most scary and exciting part of the show. When they jump outside and inside the ring my stomach was going up and down 😂

[@mmm-j4q]

This is absolutely mind-blowing. The mental fortitude and athletic abilities are immeasurable. Was the skipping mis-step part of the act? Astonishing performance!

[@patrickvanrinsvelt4466]

Still my favorite type of act at the circus. So much that can go wrong. Truly brave.

[@CirqueduSoleil]

💚🎪💙

[@LaserHighway]

the lighting, the costumes, the music. masters of entertainment cirque

[@frenchtoast4491]

This was one of those acts you see in person that makes you genuinely nervous and scared for their lives, and they're unbelievably brave for doing this regularly

[@AdirondackRuby]

This is the one act that stuck with me the most after seeing Kooza in Montreal in 2007. So epic! Especially when on the outside of the wheel. I saw the show with my younger cousin and she was gripping my arm tight the whole time.

[@CirqueduSoleil]

That's amazing news! We hope to see you again soon 😊

[@yourpalfred]

you think it can't get any more stressful and then they move to the outside. 💀 Love the moments when it's so silent you can hear their feet. Incredible

[@shubhajitlaskar1267]

Cirque acts are super captivating and if you work under them, the craze just spikes up more! It's been weeks that they left Vancouver and each day feels as if many days have gone by! Loved this show in Vancouver and I keep on listening to this music, few times a week! Lots of love ❤️ for the Circus 🎪

[@1996jacksparrow]

The thing about Cirque performers is they make things like this look incredibly easy.

[@CirqueduSoleil]

Thank you! We have such an incredible #CirqueFam that makes it all possible ❤️

[@anitachoi7586]

My best favorite performance of Kooza's wheel of death !!!!!! Thank you for posting the video ~~~

Cest magnifique Performance! My sincere admiración to the artist performing, Kooza, artistic director, Costume Designer(s) musical director, performing, musicians, And the entire cast as well as Team members of This Amazing Kooza show!

Thank you so much for joining us! We hope to see you at other Cirque du Soleil shows soon!

[@budrothefox3666]

This is the best Cirque event i have ever seen. So many details if you watch closely that are so sick!

[@CirqueduSoleil]

Thank you for coming out! We're so glad you enjoyed it!

[@8ballphil150]

The days of freaks and caged animals have thankfully gone . The future is Cirque du Soleil . By far the greatest circus in the world .

[@TTT-ki9uv]

this should have millions and millions of views

[@tigerjonn]

These 2 are the best to do it!

[@Srezr]

This is one of the most impressive things I've ever seen, the amount of coordination and skill is crazy

[@CirqueduSoleil]

We're so happy to hear that!

[@EdwardAndrewOliver]

[@kt9527]

The fact that they're supposed to be devils just makes this that much more awesome.

[@Namen8212]

The best in all worlds. І як прекрасно що нема шоу з тваринами. Дитяча мрія. ❤

[@mrss_foster]

One person introduced me to this magnificent piece of performance and I have to say I am a lover of acrobatics. This performance especially made my heart rush 🖤❤️ I think the danger aspect is what makes it so impressive. To train so long for this and the dude tripped on the rope but continued. Man ! If I everg get a chance to go to a show I will. Unfortunately I am not from America so hopefully one day you guys will come to Europe

[@franciscomauricio991]

Não tenho palavras para descrever a minha admiração pelo treino, pela preparação física, por tudo Realmente o cirque du soleil deve ser o melhor do mundo Felicidades e que nunca tenham algum dissabor

[@elainewalls1965]

So bummed! I saw Kooza at the Santa Monica Pier in December, 2024 and the Wheel of Death was not performed. After watching this, I feel SO cheated. Amazing performance, Bravo!

[@lubauzik]

Same in Seattle 😢

[@mandapanda3283]

Kooza is forever going to be my go-to show!

[@CirqueduSoleil]

Thank you! Appreciate the kind words!

[@MagnumCarta]

I think I'll unfortunately be missing the show in the SF Bay Area going on this month but I hope you'll be back in town again in a year or two. I would love to bring my partner to see this! This was such a cool spectacle, thank you for sharing! I wish you and your acrobats all the best.

[@HyperActive2768]

I got so scared when the guy tripped on the rope during the performance when I saw it live

[@maryannsmith5348]

Yes, the same thing happened in Vancouver, last night! I could hardly watch, after that mistake, because I was so worried.

[@magicalman7039]

@@maryannsmith5348 same thing for us in vancouver as well, a few weeks after your show, they did a really good job to make it look realistic

[@mackenziearsenault1]

same thing for me in toronto, the guy tripped on the rope

[@snowboarder4700]

Massive save! Could have ended super badly! They have to have trained for a mess up though. Months if not years of rehearsals and practices.

[@magicalman7039]

@snowboarder4700 I think it was intentional because it happened at every show, it's very impressive I didn't think it was intentional until others said so

[@mayat6508]

This is the best performance!🔥

[@peterfroud9335]

First saw this in Kooza at the Royal Albert Hall London. Blew my mind, have seen many Cirques but Kooza will always be my favourite and the wheel will always entertain the hell out of me

This act was not shown in Seattle. Other acts were beautiful and spectacular. Glad there is a video of the missing act.

It never ceases to leave me in awe and astounding.

It warms our heart to hear that ❤️

[@БрокколиМэн]

It was VERY IMPRESSIVE! Great acrobats!

[@CirqueduSoleil]

Right? 😍

[@Movieman1965]

I started going to Cirque Du Soleil a long time ago. The first show I went to see was Saltimbanco.

[@poetryqn]

Me, too! I saw Saltimbanco in NYC and was HOOKED. When I saw this act live I was stunned speechless - on the edge of my seat, hardly breathing. @CirqueduSoleil, totally worth the ticket price - like a waking, fabulous dream!

[@blackginkgo]

I just booked to go and see Ovo next year! I can't wait to see them all perform again! One day I'd love to see Kooza!

[@travishayes6037]

I saw this in Sacramento (San Fransisco?) a year or so ago. That was absolutely the most insane performance I've ever seen. This video is impressive as it is, but nothing'll beat out the live performance. I'm pretty sure there was a drummer rockin' out on the stage with fire when I saw it.

[@CirqueduSoleil]

So incredible to hear your experience 🥰

[@casedistorted]

You know the insane adrenaline they get as they land on the ground and have that crowd cheer so loud just be addicting, and quite a feeling.

[@organboi]

I'm quite sure they're bored by it by now

[@AnnieBrackett88]

This should be taught in PE

[@tylerANDblue]

Agreed.

[@u1zha]

Or in physics. The balancing act of spinning up the wheel and the insight in relative speed, that makes the prolonged airtime safe to execute yet look stunning

[@baab4229]

@@u1zha All of that IS thought in physics.

[@judytruesdell6816]

I saw something much like this in Vegas. Afterwards the audience was told that there would be a reception line if we cared to meet the artists. Hubby and I shook hands with the different acts, most of whom were bored to tears, and definately put out the “ I’d so rather be somewhere else vibes, one magician has a cold, limp handshake, BUT the Mexicans who had performed the wheel of death- they really looked like they were having fun doing their act, and they were warm and friendly in the reception line. They made up for the rotten attitude of the magician, for sure. Thank you guys 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼♥️
