America’s Got Talent: Fighting Gravity

I don’t normally watch America’s Got Talent. I feel like it’s an unnecessary reality show (redundant phrase?) given the current landscape with American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance, and America’s Best Dance Crew. Many of the finalists for this show are usually singers or dancers, and there’s just too much of an overlap in talent for me to care about this show as much as the others.

But every once in a while, there’s an audition that makes the show seem worth it. This act, Fighting Gravity, wouldn’t work on any other reality show because it is so niche. It doesn’t quite fit into the dancing mold that would put it on shows like America’s Best Dance Crew. A group of fraternity brothers who spend their days studying Business or Engineering, came up with a great routine involving black light and suspended tennis balls. I wonder if this is an act they would bust out at their frat parties to lure in the ladies? Check out the routine below:
