THE FLYING CABALLERO’S MAKE CIRCUS HISTORY

Two years ago, The Flying Caballero’s accomplished what had never been seen before in 250 years of circus history—landing three quadruple somersaults in a single performance. This year, they are pushing the limits even further. At twelve meters high, they will perform—for the first time ever—two simultaneous quadruple somersaults in opposite directions.
"We first managed to do this in Europe at the Wereldkerstcircus," says 18-year-old Ruben Caballero. "Back then, we dreamed of one day winning a Golden Clown in Monte Carlo. And now, that dream has come true."
