A “living chandelier” at the Arizona Revue Dancing Cabaret. Budapest, Hungary, 1935. Using the dancing girls this way caused a scandal and concern for their welfare in the newspaper “Társadalmunk” (Our Society).

  1. …huh. I was under the impression that remaining in this position puts a massive amount of stress on the heart as well.

  2. Suddenly I remember that in an episode of the 70s Hungarian cartoon series “Mézga Aladár Különös Kalandjai” (The Weird Adventures of Aladár Mézga) he visits the “Dilibolygó” (Crazy Planet), which features a very strange avant-garde society. He enters a cabaret where the light fixture is a naked woman held up by a fishing net who holds light bulbs with her hands and feet. Maybe this was the inspiration for that!
