Solid gold STREB dancers fly

Williamsburg's STREB, a dance troupe that specializes in extreme action, whether's it's dodging cinders or being flung off of a Wheel of Death-like contraption, achieve Olympian feats, even if there's no gold medal hanging from their necks.

This month, they get the chance to be honored among Olympians, as they travel up to Vancouver to participate in the Winter Olympics' Cultural Olympiad, honoring Herculean achievements in performing arts.

While you most likely won't be able to fly up to Canada for their performances, you can check them out in the video below. And if you like what they see, they're be back from a two-month tour at the end of March, at which point they'll be preparing for their yearly spring showcase. You'll never think of the human body the same way again.
