      Brief description of the act and service

      Here’s Dominic Lacasse, also called “The Flag Man.”
      He is the holder of 2 Guinness World Records in the Human Flag. It’s a unique and amazing act of strength and precision. You will see what the human machine can do with a simple pole. You will be touched by the effort but also by the softness of the performance. He was very appreciated by the french crowds at France's Got Talent in 2008 and received the special prize from Princess of Monaco. He won the silver medal in China, bronze medal in Russia and a special prize at the 33rd International Circus Festival in Monte-Carlo. He has recently been a guest on Le Plus Grand Cabaret du Monde and Ellen Degeneres, both shows are very popular and well-known internationally.

      Brief description of the act and service

      With only 2 ropes, this man will impress you by his amazing strength prowess that only a few people can do in the world. I call this act "The Passenger". The Passenger who will be transported into a world without fear...

      You may customize this act to be performed with one artist or as a duo act. Keep in mind you can customize this act with the solo artist to interact with the MC or singer by lifting them in the air with him as they are singing or speaking.
