A French band Houle Douce is gaining attention worldwide for their mid-air performance. Spectators remained stunned as the band balanced themselves on slack lines tied between mountains at 1,400-metre high between Tianmen mountains. While attempting the stunt, musicians played instruments some walking on the rope suspended several kms high from ground level. One of them played an instrument swinging in a hammock.
Spectators can be seen watching the show with much awe capturing everything on camera. The show was held in China's Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in Zhangjiajie city, Hunan. The audience is sure to have given an adrenaline rush to the viewers also. With safety belts they performed on the 'stage' much to the shock and surprise of their viewers.
They even showed some acrobatic skills almost jumping on the slacks while continuing to pay the instruments. Previously, Houle Douce have performed on tightropes similarly in France, Algeria and Ivory Coast
