    help me find a video? please!

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    I'm going nuts here - I saw a video clip recently and I cannot for the life of me remember where or find it again. I'm obviously using way too common search words.

    The intro said something about bodybuilders, but they looked more like gymnasts to me. But maybe a little heavier. They might have been brothers or even twins. Short blond hair.

    Two men, wearing only briefs, painted in gold, on a stage of some sort - a circus? They did an amazing routine using only each other for support, handstands, splits, lots of gymnastic moves I don't know the name of, all in very slow motion. It was either quiet or with slow, "modern" music.

    It looked a little bizarre but very, very impressive.

    Can anyone locate this for me?

    Sounds like a Cirque de Soleil thing.

    That's what I was thinking. There is a pair that does that, they look somewhat alike but aren't brothers. They lift each other up. I saw their pic in a Cirque de Soleil program one of my students brought to school. They were in Atlanta recently.

    ah, you guys are the best! I still can't find the video, but yes, it's cirque de soleil, yes, it's saltimbanco and now I know their names: Gabor Czivisz and Andrey Zhadan.

    I don't think this is the Cirque du Soleil, but they are gold and doing pretty much the same routine. They're called Golden Power.

    This is Saltimbanco. The act is Hand to Hand. Not in gold, but the ones you were referring to. On the side are a bunch more videos of them.

    That's them! Thanks uforgot. I just figured it had to be the cirque de soleil couple because the routine was so much alike. And it's kinda hard to tell what they look like under all that paint

    There's a whole new meaning for the phrase "golden boy."
