Female competitor wows viewers

However, the video showcasing the sole female competitor, who is from the U.S., attracted the most attention with over 2.2 million views. In comparison, the video of the winning team from Singapore had about 289,000 views.

According to the video's caption, she is part of the team known as LionDanceMe, which was awarded a score of 8.95. However, it did not identify who the two specific individuals performing were.

The video opens with her walking up on to the stilts to join her co-performer, while the audience roars in approval in the background. Subsequently, she performs an impressive array of feats as the front half of the lion, such as balancing and jumping on both the stilts, as well as her co-performer. Both of them then conclude their performance to a round of thunderous cheers and applause.
