There Was A Time…

By Mitch Berg

…probably fifty years before CGI, when people actually had to do the impossible:

That’s The Ross Sisters, from 1944.  And it’s 90% amazing (especially the shot starting around 2:45), 10% kinda creepy.

(From my high school classmate Dena’s Facebook page)

    First time I’ve ever seen you get your statistics wrong, Mitch, I’m fairly sure you must have intended to say 90% creepy and 10% amazing. (I would have been less complimentary with my own assessment. Great big ‘ICK’.)
    ; )

    Reminds me of those Chinese acrobats and Cirque Du’ Soleil.

    well, it isn’t entirely creepy. Isn’t this where Chad the Elder chimes in with Life Imitates Seinfeld?
