Today we are going to tell you about a village where people are famous for their unique skills. Every person in the village of Sovakra-1 (Tsovkra-1), located between the mountains in Russia, knows the skill of walking on a rope.
Watching someone walking on a rope may sound as fun as it is dangerous. Even a small mistake can result in loss of life. Although it is not a matter of everyone that they can do such a feat, but there is such a village in the world where every person living in this unique art is mastered. We are talking about a village in Russia where every citizen knows the art of walking on a rope.
The small village of Sovkra-1 (Tsovkra-1) situated between the mountains in Russia is quite famous in the world. That is because every person here knows the skill of walking on a rope. For information, let us tell you that the number ‘1’ is placed in front of the name of the village because there is another village in Russia with the same name. Surprisingly, no one knows that since when the practice of walking on rope has started here, but every healthy person in the village can perform unique feats. It is believed that the practice of walking on a rope among the people of the village continues for the last 100 years. Men, women, children including old people also know about this art. Many people of this village also work in the circus.
Let us tell you that till the year 1980s the population of this village was 3000 but now it has come down to just 400. If you believe the rumors spread here, then every man of the village used to learn the art of tight rope walking in the old times so that he could reach his girlfriend soon. Whereas some people believe that the art of walking on a rope comes to everyone in the village because being situated on the mountain, the way to the village passes through inaccessible areas. To reach anywhere quickly, going by rope proves to be a better option. Not only this, sometimes temporary bridges and roads break in storms, after which it becomes difficult to cross the river. In such a situation, the rope becomes the only way. According to the reports, there is no agriculture in the village, so the people here earn money by using the art of walking on the rope. According to the report of the Odditi Central website, performing the juggling of walking on a rope does not get much money now, so many youths of the village have started going to other cities of Russia and doing jobs. Whereas the elderly do not do these deadly feats due to their poor health.
