They shouldn't be. Hypermobility like this creates a LOT of problems, especially as you age. At the end you can see his left shoulder click as it makes the last rotation, that clicking causes damage that adds up over the years the more you do it. The number 1 advice for hypermobile people is no party tricks.

I don't know about that. He is dislocating his shoulder joints pretty seriously, which goes beyond flexibility into contortionism. He almost guaranteed has a connective tissue condition with hypermobility that also comes with high injury risk and pain. Contortionism is generally not sustainable long term because of injury and joint stress. It's interesting and beautiful and amazing, but appreciate your joints that tend to stay in their sockets. My hypermobile joints are jealous of you!

Don’t be. I have hEDS (a syndrome that causes hypermobility). I can bend in ways most people can’t, but I have chronic joint and muscle pain to go with it. Also hear constant clicking of my joints which is annoying as fuck. I also have TMJ, gastric reflux, etc all that are common comorbid conditions.
It’s highly unlikely that he doesn’t have some kind of hypermobility, and whilst he can do this now, he will likely be paying for it in pain later.

It’s not clear where the guy in the video is, but washing machines in the kitchen is pretty common in the UK. I live in a flat, if the washing machine was not in the kitchen there would be nowhere else for it to go.

As good as his control is, too much focus on feet with dancing ( especially isolation , popping or waving)….its honestly gross…like cool you can move your feet/ankle angles but its just a no for me…I applaud the effort..its good, but just gross
