A 15-year-old boy displays his extraordinary balancing skills by balancing a stack of terracotta pots on the top of a metal gas cylinder weighing at least 14.2 Kgs which is rather placed on two horizontally balanced inverted glasses made up of glass on the top of his head.

He then moves his legs front and sideways as the entire structure on the top of his head remain intact without falling.

Praveen Prajapat, a resident of Alwar in Rajasthan has become a local celebrity for his exceptional talent of balancing heavy things on the top of his head at such a young age.

His talent has won him several accolades and organizations now book his time for performing on the stage.

Praveen says, “I have been practicing this for years and had started doing this when I was just 5-Years-old.”
Praveen says, it was not an easy task initially but it took him several years of practice to reach here.

He says, “I have been performing since I was 5 and had started with balancing small items like cup or glass on the head, it took me several years to practice and reach here. I can now balance anything right from heavy metal cylinders to rotating cycle rims on the top of my head.”

The performances that Praveen performs is a bit risky as it involves heavy metal objects and sharp glass utensils which can cause injuries in case of accidents.

Praveen says, “I take utmost care when I am performing because I balance such a heavy metal cylinder on the top of two thin glasses made up of glass. It came up with a lot of practice. I have fortunately not faced any accidents or injuries till date.”

Praveen says his father Banay Singh Prajapat is also a balance performing artist and he has drawn inspiration from him.

He says he is still young and has a long way to go in honing his balancing art.

His work has been recognized by many Indian celebrities who have taken to their social media accounts to share his balancing skills.
