In the subject film starring Jim Carrey, there is a swing dance scene performed to "Hey, Pachuco" from playback position 39:50 to 41:00. At 40:17, there is a really spectacular swing dance aerial where the flyer seems to fall face forward, holding the base by one hand, comes very close to face-planting the floor, but roles and spins horizontally and then lands squatting vertically on her feet, still holding the base by the same hand.

What is this aerial named, and where can I find more detailed footage of dancers doing this? It's breathtaking!

Thank you.

Kind Regards,
