Shaolin Monks
Has anyone ever seen a live show of these peeps?

I've not myself but I've seen them on videos and think what they do is absolutely crazy

I noticed it advertised that theyre coming to Birmingham in a couple of weeks , sure it will go down quite well.

I saw them at the Alex in Birmingham last time they were here (about a year ago). Amazing show, has to be seen to be believed. We were right on the front row, there's no cheating - these guys (and most of them are kids, really) actually do smash paving slabs on their heads and walk on axe blades in bare feet (while carrying a bucket full of water in each hand) They're so agile it's incredible. If you watch the video and think 'I want to see this' then you'll be blown away by the live show.

I went to the Shaolin temple in 2000 and saw a show there, although I think theres a lot of bandwagon jumping these days and all sorts of people are setting up "Shaolin" schools. It would be a great show though either way. Some of the stuff they do (the one finger handstands spring to mind) are absolutely incredible.
