Break Dancing Freezes

There is a lot of physics involved in different break dancing moves that are on the ground. This specific freeze that I'm doing in the picture involves several things that are related to physics. For example, your shoulder and head are the main things holding you up in the air to counter the force of your weight, so you have to exert a pretty strong force on the ground to stay up. To get up in the air in the first place, you need to build up lots of momentum by sitting in the criss-cross leg position without actually crossing your legs and swaying back and forth several times. Once you have enough momentum, you can swing yourself down to one shoulder and put your head down after that. The momentum going towards that shoulder is what boosts you up into the air. But once you are in the air, you need to keep your legs straight and as perpendicular to the ground as possible so that you don't fall to one side. Break dancing moves definitely involve forces, momentum, and balance in them, so there are lots of physics-related things to think about while doing them.
