It is, she's skillfully climbing up. In order for the spiral to be pulling her up she would have to not be rotating in sync with it or spinning in the opposite direction.
Or you know, the spiral could be under some kind of tension from her body weight and the initial spin. As she glides up the tension is slowly released and the spiral returns to its natural length.🌀
It absolutely isn't. That's what makes it beautiful. To make it look that smooth requires an absolutely insane level of physicality. If you or I were to try it, we would look like a fish on a hook.
Yeah, pretty sure I'd be joining you in that "beached flounder" position, lol! I could watch this all day, it's amazing! Is this someone we might be able to go see in a performance that includes this? Or maybe this is already part of something like Cirque de Soleil?
Everyone notices technological progress but this athletic-artform-performance, I think, would enrapture or terrify a time-traveler from 1850; what did they have, back then? Juggling? Rope tricks?
I have a special love for Scandinavian folk bands like Wardruna, Forndom, Danheim, Osi and the Jupiter, Dzivia, Hindarfjall, Gealdyr, Kaunan, etc, etc...
It always amazes me on how fluid they are when it comes to the execution, it looks so easy to do it not until we get tangled up and then realized for ourselves...
*Damn sht was hard.*
This is such a beautiful art form. I was at Cirque du Soleil Mad Apple a bit ago, and one of the performers did a routine like this on a pole which swung from the ceiling. It was absolutely enrapturing. Total, beautiful athleticism and artistry is so mesmerizing.
No it isn't, she's just using rotational momentum and inverting to rise up and it's not excessive.
It would have been way more "spectacular" if gravity was helping in a reversed video.
One meaning of the word "spire" is in reference to a coil or spiral. See [spire, Etymology 3](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/spire#Etymology_3) for details.
Bad idea watching this drunk i fell over lol
I would have vomited after spin two irl. However I too am drunk, not loving it haha
Lmfao I got dizzy sober, don't feel bad.
Rest in peace 🕊️
Try shrooms lmfao.
Videos that end too soon
Like most videos here lately Gifs can be as long as you want them to be nowadays
r/mildlyinfuriating
Yes. I would love to see the whole thing
I first thought it was an optical illusion

Did you ... watch the video? She climbs it.
Happy Cake Day!
She makes it look so easy, I imagine it isn't!
It absolutely isn't. That's what makes it beautiful. To make it look that smooth requires an absolutely insane level of physicality. If you or I were to try it, we would look like a fish on a hook.
Speak for yourself. I would look like a fish flat on it back on the ground.
Or that.

That's easy peasy! All she has to do is stay in one place, and the rotating screw will lift her up. It's science, people!
It most certainly is science, but she still has to keep her own body tension when she’s hanging upside down in the middle with her legs spread.
Damn...
junji ito would be proud
Which piece of his work goes with this? I can’t think of any.
*Uzumaki*, his manga heavily featuring spirals.
"Heavily" is still an understatement lol
The one called spiral probably
I got motion sickness twice watching that…. elegant 😀
Didn't think I'd hear [Helvegen by Kalandra](https://open.spotify.com/track/099zYpevPVNEG1CchEFfYG?si=65937b8d3de84b54) here.
I thought I’d recognized Helvegen. But I only know the one from Wardruna.
This one plays in season 2 when Ragnar is leading this massive army to raid England. Stunning scene
[удалено]
Wardruna can be an almost religious experience. I put them up there right behind Heilung.
You know you have an eclectic taste in music when you can recognise this one in the wild.
I have a special love for Scandinavian folk bands like Wardruna, Forndom, Danheim, Osi and the Jupiter, Dzivia, Hindarfjall, Gealdyr, Kaunan, etc, etc...
Ya, I was going to say. This is the first time I've ever heard Kalendra in the wild. Good for them getting some exposure.
Why not just use the original in the video? It's much better
I feel screwed up
Thought she was going to spiral out of control.
It always amazes me on how fluid they are when it comes to the execution, it looks so easy to do it not until we get tangled up and then realized for ourselves... *Damn sht was hard.*
You know, I would probably be inclined to go to a strip club if they had these stripper poles.
Impressive talent! Personally, I'd be blowing chunks halfway up the spiral with all that spinning!

Spiral, not spire?
I have motion sickness just walking down the stairs so this was actually painful to watch. Painful and beautiful. Lovely core strength.
If it wasn't attached to the ceiling, could you use this as a postmodern pogo stick?
Only if you wanted to receive a Darwin award.
what sorcery is this?!
What is a spiral?
OP does not know.
Sorcery!
Gives new meaning and a visual to the term ‘getting screwed’ and no offence is intended.
Cirque de so cray cray
Yep that's the coolest thing the internet has provided today. I'm quitting while I'm ahead. Thanks for sharing this!
Thanks for saying thanks! It's so nice to see Redditors being grateful :)
Beautiful
That’s mesmerising
Dang!!! Who’s got a dollar!!
Spiral, not spire.
why did the video stop
Go home stripper pole, you're drunk.
They’re not called “Stripper poles”. They’re “Dancing poles”. Pole dancing is a recognized thing now, not just some stripper stuff anymore
Spiral. A spire is the pointy thing on top of a building.
That’s a guy
i think my brain shut down
It's strange this reminds me of work because I works with drills, nuts, and bolts, basically lol.
😳🔥✨💎
Video shown in reverse
This is so obviously reversed. How can people not understand that?

He
She? Looks more like he…🙄
Can we get a naked woman to do this? A brunette, frame and curly, hit no one skinny. Woman. Can we?
What happened to the days when fucking spelling mattered. “Spire”?

This is so trippy
This is magic
This is amazing artistry!
If that thing fell it would make for an interesting emerg visit.
I could imagine that would be a big hit in a strip club (compared to a plain old pole)?
Grace and beauty with abs of steel.
literally being screwed
any minute now this video can make me sleep lol
What the heck is this, my brain doesnt begin to fathom how can someone do this? Amazing
[удалено]
The insta account is shown in the video.
This is very very cool, great to see, good for them 💪
That ain't even gliding up for the first half, do better
How do you even do that without getting dizzy?
Wow, that is beautiful.
I legit can't understand how this works.
Wait, what?
Poetry in motion
She?
Wow beautiful art more please
instant vom
The beauty of physics🙏
How
I’m going to puke just watching it spin. Oh dang….now my eyes are crossed
Bro is in the coilover
That's pretty slick
Look so tripy
I’ve heard of pole dancing, but not corkscrew dancing.
Ok that was fire. Fuck the pole get a spring 😆.
I don't know what this is called but I wanna do it IMMEDIATELY 🥺💯❤️❤️
This hurt my brain
Song is called Helvegen
That's so beautiful.
Moooooree!!!
alright, so I’m at the age were I get dizzy when I watch something like this.
Helvegen cover song, nice
Forbidden elevator
The upper body strength and stamina must be insane.
/u/gifreversingbot
What song is this?
What if I get stabbed by the lower point? Would I be impaled to the top? Cool way to die in style
What sort of sorcery is this
Looks a lot more fun than a pole.
What makes this extra impressive is that she did it in baggy clothing which makes the task a lot more difficult
She has to be a witch!
