1930s photos: beach acrobatics

Apparently some people prefer taking exercise on the beach rather than just lounging with a Margarita. I don’t understand it myself. It’s all very impressive but I’d be hanging out with that handsome guy in the bottom photo chilling out and getting a tan.

Having said that I think most of the subjects of these photos were acrobats or chorus girls who were obviously very fit, and they were probably very good at this sort of thing.  The pictures were all taken during the 1930s on Bondi Beach, Australia. I would have been one of the people in a floppy hat watching open-mouthed (preferably with that Margarita).
