In this photo taken Tuesday, Aug. 12, 2014, flying trapeze instructor and school owner William Hsu, right, catches one of his students during their first day of practice at the Flying Trapeze Philippines School in suburban Makati, south of Manila, Philippines. The new facility teaches students basic techniques from taking off a platform as high as a three-story building, hanging on to the swinging trapeze bar with your hands or back of knees and landing on the safety net below said Hsu. He added that the thrilling activity has gained adherents, with about 150 to 200 such flying trapeze training facilities now in existence worldwide. (AP Photo/Aaron Favila)
