How long have we been working together? Too long... yes definitely 19 years sounds rather too long.. ha... |
|
How heavy is McCoy? " Far too heavy.." claims Terry, but in reality he weighs around 60 kilos or 132 pounds. |
|
Are you both married? Sorry to inform you but yes, they both are; Terry's wife is French and Henning's wife comes from Surrey England. And as an American friend once suggested, being their first and only wives they must be the 'starter wives....' |
|
How did we get started? We met whilst working separately in a large Casino Extravaganza in Australia and developed our act skills in our free time with the assistance of famous retired acrobatic artists living in the region at the time |
|
Has Terry ever dropped McCoy? Now we wouldn't be acrobats if we have never fallen... besides Terry tries to drop McCoy every show! But seriously, no, we have never had any serious accidents. |
|
Does it hurt to do all those physical skills? A famous Russian answered this question most eloquently for us; "if an acrobat wakes in the morning and is not aching, he is probably dead! " |
|
How often do you train and work out? It is due to the constant practice and working-out that has enabled us our careers to last so long. We usually put in at least four acrobatic sessions a week plus our general daily stretching and strength work-outs. Of course this slows down during heavy show periods. We want to save some energy for the adoring public.... |
|
What is your favourite country to work in? We love to travel and really couldn't pick a favourite over another. Some countries the public are more receptive than others like in the USA. Japan is always a hoot, as the crowd loves our accent and we are never quite sure what they are saying back to us. In Italy they leave money on the stage for us when they approve... now that is interesting! |
|
How many languages do you speak? Quite a few if you count American and Australian, ha.. Well, we are fluent in French and have been known to fake it in German, Spanish, Portuguese. We perform the act in Japanese too.. but don't expect me to answer you back should Nihongo be your mother tongue. |
|
When are we going to get a real job? How many times have we been asked what is our real occupation. This is it I'm afraid, and how lucky are we to be doing a job we enjoy so much. |
