Artist: Mirko Köckenberger
Photo by Robert Pater
Here’s something you haven’t seen before. Mirko is a handstand artist. You read that right – his specialty is performing and posing on his hands. Translation: you could break a 2×4 over his abs. He has a Vimeo channel with only one short video, but Youtube provided some more interesting things like this. He hails from Germany, and his website is here.
Not exactly a ballet dancer; more of a circus thing, really, but that photo is too gorgeous not to reblog before I go to bed.
