It's dubstep with crutches. And it's awesome.
German-born dancer Dergin Tokmak didn't let childhood polio — and resulting waist-down loss of muscle control — keep him from becoming a breakdancer and Cirque du Soleil performer.
He now performs this jaw-dropping "Solo on Crutches" piece in a touring show.
"I want to pass on to the next generation…so people can see that no handicap is too big or too limiting to dance. My message as an artist is to show the world that there is a creative soul in everyone with or without a handicap," Tokmak says.
