  1. doing a handstand

  2. being good enough at archery to draw a crowd

  3. performing archery with feet

Like, I'll never be able to do one of those things, let alone all three simultaneously.

This doesn't look AI generated.

I'm in awe. This must have taken hundreds, if not thousands of hours of training and dedication.

Anyone been to Kyrgyzstan? All I know is that they have a fucking dope flag 🇰🇬

I checked the link but i csnt find anything that would be related to this photo, could you provide some more info. Itd be pretty cool if theres a video about it.

It looks like their photo gallery is borked. This might work

Are the stilts on a unicycle on a ball by any chance?

They might as well be, she's got talent.

Apparently a lot of people can do this. Search something like trick archery feet and you can find a bunch of examples.

Not to say it isn't difficult or impressive of course, just that it's not limited to Kyrgyzstan

Kyrgyzstan is amazing and gorgeous, it’s known as the “Switzerland of Central Asia” because its size, topography and mountains resemble it. Women are beautiful, the place is wild.

Draw a cord? I am not sure if I can open my toes enough to fit a bow there
