Wasn't their first rodeo, you don't learn that in one afternoon!

Amazing! Imagine what their practice sessions were like. That will probably become an Olympic event. : )

This totally amazed me. I had a lot of fun with kites in my youth. But, I never achieved this kind of control with them. Most times when there were two or more flying together we ended up tangled.

That was amazing! I watched it all the way through and couldn't figure out how they did it without crashing.

The wind around here is never that steady or in the same direction long enough to ever attempt such a feat!

Unbelievable flight control of those kites and fantastic choreography to one of the greatest songs by Freddie Mercury and Queen!!! Totally enjoyed this video, thanks for the post!

Those are anti-gravity devices flown by trained gerbils. The "guys" on the ground that look like they're flying kites are actually the aliens from Area 51 who brought the devices to Earth and trained the gerbils ;-) I think that's as likely as six guys flying kites like that and NOT ending up with their strings in a Gordian Knot. However it's done, it's truly amazing.
