Hundreds Of Acrobats Form Amazing Human Christmas Tree At Opening Ceremony Of Youth Olympic Games

During the opening ceremony at the Nanjing Youth Olympic Games in 2014, spectators were treated to an awe-inspiring performance of 500 people dancing in the sky.

It opens with hundreds of dancers and acrobats in the center of the stadium. A group of acrobats run to the middle and climb invisible wires before being lifted into the air.

They perform some incredible aerial stunts while suspended above the stage that literally took my breath away. At 1:46 they resemble a human Christmas tree with all the colors and the shape!

The spectacle doesn’t end there. The dancers on the ground are no less beautiful and along with the lighting and visual effects the stage is transformed into a kaleidoscope of dancers. It’s simply stunning to watch!
