ABOUT THE PEKING ACROBATS
Since their founding in 1986, The Peking Acrobats have been featured on numerous television shows and celebrity-studded TV specials.

They set the world record for the Human Chair Stack on FOX Network’s “Guinness Book Primetime” television show in 1999: they balanced six people precariously atop six chairs 21 feet up in the air without safety lines. They also were featured in the film “Ocean’s 11.”
