Yudi and Sébastien the globe of death
The "Globe of Death" is a sensational, very dangerous circus act, which was popularized in the United States by Douglas Mac Valley. Mac Valley ended his days in Samoa, and he passed the baton to Bruno Loyale who has been presenting the "Globe of Death" in his Magic Circus of Samoa for thirty years. Within the Magic Circus of Samoa, three motorcycles compete in the metal globe. In 2019, for the first time a woman is at the helm: Yudy Serna Rodriguez is Colombian. In his family, all his brothers fly around the globe. She is the only girl. Her husband Sébastien Moreno Delgado is her partner in the globe. The third man is Brazilian. Together Yudy and Sébastien open and close the Magic Circus show, first with an aerial acrobatics number, then in the globe. They also rehearse a spectacular new number.
