Whips and knife throwing / Peitschen und Messerwerfen / хлысты и метание ножей, 1973 

This was an oriental style pantomime, "1001 nights". There is a link to the full length version in the description. Those guys suppose to be the warriors of an enemy ruler or warlord

@@Naftalinoff Probably a Mongol warlord.

@@dttruman You can watch the whole pantomime. Honestly, I do not remember what it was exactly about. They named it "From the 1000 and 1 nights"

@@Naftalinoff It was interesting, entertaining and the thrower was pretty good. I wonder how much closer he could have thrown with his regular partner?

I find it more interesting then they are telling a story

@@Naftalinoff I find actresses don't react as well as a knife thrower's assistants. Have you seen America's Circus of the Stars? Those celebrity assistants are very unpredictable according to Franz Brumbach.

@@dttruman This is very well may be so!

Это было разовое шоу. "Цирк со звездами"

@@Naftalinoff даже для одного раза супер!)

@@neonstorm8676 Эта женщина актриса, она не цирковая артистка. Самое удивительное, что она не прекращает играть даже когда в нее летят ножи!

@@Naftalinoff да!

@@Naftalinoff I guess they have to use a actress when they are telling a story.
