Yahoo! Picks - bringing you the best of the Web since 1995

In photographer Denis Darzacq's latest series "La Chute," or "The Fall," young mens' bodies hover in space. They levitate above city streets, hang suspended in air, pause in the breath of a moment before they must plant a resounding belly flop on the pavement. According to a recent article in The Guardian, Darzacq's subjects are dancers who trained, plotted out, and, surely, earned any number of cement burns for their astonishing airborne acrobatics. (Darzacq also did not—we repeat, did not—doctor the photos in any way. What you see is what they did.) The culture and plight of French youth today sparked the collection's chilling message. The photographer aimed, he says, "to capture an entire generation in freefall and with no one to catch them."
