[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: so we finished with a big dance numb. and i have to tell you, when we did dance and all of a suen it

nervous, i was nervous i was going to trample one of the dancers. does that happen? are there accidents? i know there are injuries. are there collisions and whatnot? >> ye, i mean, that's the amazing thing about live theater. is that you're going to get whatever is happening in the moment. and whatever the audience is feeding you, you're going to react to that as well. but yes. >> jimmy: you've seen it happen? >> i've been a part of it many times and i've seen it happen. i think it's one my favorite things about live theater is seeing those things happen. >> jimmy: is there one in particular that stands out to you? >> yes. there was one moment in the ballet, human vaations, a george ballanchine, made for american ballet theater, you would know. >> jimmy: you don't have to tell me, yes. >> i was with another soloistst couple, we were doing these turns towards each other, me and another girl. we were dipped by ourartners

we literally had to beulled apart. we were center stage. and the principal couple was coming forward. we were like, oh my god, oh my god! >> jimmy: like elk fighting in the woods, wow. that pretty crazy. and does the audience laugh? or do people get angry?y? >> i don't't know i they realized whwhat was gng on. you try your best to make it look graceful and like it's supposed to be happening. you just keep a s smile on your face. >> jimmy: are you graceful in everything? brushing your teeth? is it just a beautiful thing? >> no, nono. i'm very clumsy i would say. >> jimmy: you are very clumsy, really? >> yeah. >> jimmy: are you very flexible, though, yes? >> yeah, that too. maybe that's why i'm so clumsy. >> jimmy: is that natural? orit a combinaon of working on it too? >> it's a combination. i think that's why ballet was so easy for me is that my body was very loose and flexible. and i think i must have been

realized how flexible i was. i remember i woke up -- i'd never danced before. i had no training. i woke up one morning stretching my arms. and they weren't all the way over. i was holding my hands. i remember thinking, what just happened? i woke my mom up, look what i can do, look what i can do? she's like, that's weird. >> jimmy: this is like how spider-man got started. >> years later i think being a swan in "swan lake," having flexible shoulders helps. >> jimmy: can you still do that thing? >> i've never done it before -- yes, i can still do it. >> jimmy: you can, okay. will you do it? [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: wow. that's good. [ cheers a applause ] >> jimmy: who knew that would come in handy? do you feel like you would be great at any kind of dancing? like were you involved in ballroom dancing or some other kind? >> i was always really drawn to

i don't know if i would have been this natural at every time of movement. but i think that athletics just run in my family. like we're all pretty natural with movement and athletics. like my cavs, all of the copelands have them. we call them the copeland calves. >> jimmy: thank goodness for the copeland calves. you're doing a limited run performance here in san pedro, in that aa in orange county? >> american ballet theater, yes. >> jimimmy: theocumentary is very, very interesting. misty copeland, everybody.
