One by one, the chairs are raised slowly and placed ever so gently on top of each other to form a pyramid. Like a larger-than-life house of cards, the structure is so delicate, so fragile that everyone holds their breath in silence, lest the slighest gust of wind cause it to topple to the ground. Erected in the purest Chinese tradition, the pyramid is so tall that anyone who climbs to the top looks as small as a child from the ground. Suddenly, the acrobats do a flip and balance themselves upside down on their column of chairs!
