Hmm, I can no longer seem to find it online. The old link I have is now private.

 

I think the title was "Children of the Chinese Circus" if you want to scrounge around

Was this like a documentary showing the grueling training of the young children? I think that was posted here some time ago...it made me feel bad for some of those kids. I still remember vividly where one child was laying on a table and a couple of the coaches took one of his legs and forced all the way to his head while the child cried. Great performance as an adult in exchange for a rough childhood.

Excellent. I tried finding it some months ago, but had little luck. Thanks for the reminder!

In womans gymnastics you can compete a reverse planche on the beam, but Its very different to a normal planche.
