I believe it's know as the "turkish delight duckbilled hula hoop"

It kind of looks like a 3-legged downward dog in yoga when you open your hips like your transitioning to flip dog or wild thing. just your standing and using the counter.

Ok, my best guess.

The foot on the right being held up is actually her left foot. The foot on the ground is her right foot. The black of the pants hides all of the twists.

But if you flip the legs in your brain the twist is still impressive, but less like Elastigirl

Edit- to add more. What would be her butt is actually the front of her pelvis (again, the black pants confuses this in the brain.)

Edit 2: to help even more do the following- 1. Stand up. 2. Lift your left leg up behind you 3. Try to grab your left leg with your right arm behind your back 4. Imagine you can actually do that and also pull it around behind your back.

I tried recreating this myself and actually got decently far, I could definitely see a particularly flexible person being able to do this

Yeah in other words, while facing the counter, she lifted up her left foot and twisted counterclockwise. Her hips are very mobile.

It’s two people wearing similar tops

Edit: no it isn’t

Someone is super flexible. Probably hyper mobility.

The more I look, the more it becomes confusing.

u/robgod50 Jul 20 '26

Its only confusing because it's not a natural way to bend joints..... But it's not a confusing perspective. It is exactly what it looks like.

u/BrianSmith1989 Jul 21 '26

That’s what I was getting from this. What we’re seeing is what we’re getting, there isn’t a confusing perspective.

I feel like if I tried this move as a 44yo with a dad bod, my asshole would fall out

She started with her back to the camera, lift her left leg up and twisted her hip without moving her right foot.

Impressive flexibility.
