Whoa! (boys growl)
Shh, you guys we are backstage.

We just snuck into this top secret rehearsal.
That's crazy!

- [All] Good morning!
- Hey boys, where are we? - We're in Vegas, baby!
(upbeat music)
- We had so much fun traveling with the boys to Vegas.
We got an airplane right, Ollie?
- [Ollie] Yeah.
- [Bryan] Then what did we do?
- We went on a airplane, and remember we saw
that big giant horny toad.
- Oh yes, we did, we saw some crazy stuff in the airport.
Hit that thumbs up button, because check this out,
we are starting the vlog in our hotel room,
after we make a mess in it.
This is how a true hotel family room looks like.
- That's right, we are so excited to be in Vegas.
- Yes. - We have definitely
been needing a little getaway,
and this has been the perfect little family getaway.
Vegas is always fun, and these boys are so excited,
they got little pirates.
- [Bryan] And we are all donned in our pirate gear
because we are at Treasure Island, Las Vegas.
Cool shirt, dude.
- Tonight we're going to a really, really cool show.
We're taking the boys, but first we're gonna do something
that not a lot of people get to do, and we're so excited.
- Yep, we're going to a super cool show,
but before we do that, we get to do something
really, really cool today, something top secret.
We get to explore behind the scenes
of the Mystere show for Cirque Du Soleil
here at Treasure Island in Las Vegas.
We're gonna meet all of the characters.
We're gonna meet all the amazing artists
who put so much work and energy into the show.
And we're gonna get to have some fun of our own as a family.
Does that sound cool? - Yeah!
- We are so excited for the Mystere show tonight,
it's gonna be so awesome, these boys are going to love it.
- That's it, you guys, we're joining the circus.
Pack up, we're hoppin' on the train.
You are gonna become friends with an elephant, I think.
You're gonna become friends with a clown, right?
He's gonna teach you about all kinds
of fun mischief to get into.
And then, maybe Mommy and I will become trapeze artists.
(mellow music)
- So we have a little time to kill
before the show, and so what better thing
to do to kill time? (mellow music)
Hang out at the Avengers Station.
- Whoa! - Yeah.
Get angry! - Angry.
(boys roar)
- [Bryan] Look it, it's us.
- [Missy] Oh my gosh, it actually worked on him.
(Missy laughs)
Stand up, bud, you always find your way to toys, don't ya?
- Yeah, because I wanna get one.
- Shh, you guys, we are backstage at Mystere,
the Cirque Du Soleil show, and I am so excited
because we just snuck in to this top secret rehearsal.
Check this out, we're all here by ourself.
(Missy squeals)
So we've literally just been watching these guys
do like flips and stuff, Ollie, what do you think?
- I saw a guy do a flip. - Right.
- Do flips. - Isn't that crazy?
- Wow, these guys are so talented.
It's been so cool watching them.
- Yeah, so we have the Mystere show later,
and this is the rehearsal where are the acrobats
and the artists get together,
and they just like work on their form
and work on their stuff, look at that guy!
- [Missy] That is crazy.
(performs yell)
- A lot of it's teeter board team,
which is that right across there.
They trained together for a while before,
and they arrived here a couple years ago.
But teeter board, it's a crazy apparatus,
'cause we've had even Olympic trampolinists,
who are clearly so good-- - Uh-huh.
- That have taken quite awhile learning that,
because it's so delicate, that thing.
It depends on how heavy the guy is that you're jumping with.
It depends on how they push it, it's a crazy apparatus.
- Wow, so you have a team that just uses this device?
- Yeah. - That's what they're trained
specifically for? - Exactly, yeah.
- Wow. - A team that specializes
in that, so, a lot of them, like Nate right there,
he's a super high level trampolinist.
If you have an acrobatic background,
I guess maybe not surprising,
it's a lot easier to pick up some of the stuff.
But it's still super delicate, the timing of that.
So yeah, all these guys have trained
and specialized in this apparatus.
- We're in a room full of pure talent.
These guys are amazing, so we are leaving rehearsal here,
and Chris is gonna take us backstage.
I heard you have a couple surprises for us.
- I mean, there's always surprises here at the circus.
- Okay. - We'll see what you can find.
- You boys wanna join the circus?
- Yeah! - Yeah, let's go do it.
Whoa! - Whoa, look at this Ollie!
- Whoa, that's crazy! (family laughs)
- Do you guys wanna play the drums?
First of all, I think this drum is way too big for you.
I'll hand you official drumsticks, alright, brother?
(funky percussion music)
- Might hire him to be the next drummer in the show.
- What you wanna do is, at the end of your drum solo,
you're gonna pick the stick up, and go (cheers).
(drum thumps) - Yeah!
- [Man] Wow, you're better than some of our players.
- No, Finn, Finn! - Good job!
- Good job, Finn, say thank you.
- [Finn] Thank you.
- Hey, you guys.
- That's Paul, he's super cool, yeah.
- [Missy] Whoa, he can do a handstand on that, Ollie.
- What?
- Look at that!
- That is crazy!
- He does a split! - Wow!
- That is amazing, just like a monkey, look at that.
- [Ollie] Wait, are you guys climbin' all the way up there?
- [Chris] I mean, do you want me to?
- Yeah, oh my gosh! - Woo-hoo!
- [Missy] (laughs) Now how does he come down?
- [Bryan] He just walks down.
He makes it look like nothing.
- [Ollie] I don't wanna go all the way up.
- You don't have to go all the way up.
- You're doin' great. - Woo, careful!
- Alright, all the way, let's go.
- No, I don't want to. - Let go!
- [Bryan] Oh look, he's even trying to do it like you.
That's amazing. - Oh nice!
- Oh wow! - You go, buddy!
- [Missy] You gotta use those arms!
- This is amazing you guys, click that thumbs up button
for Finn right here, he's killin' it!
- Go, Finn, go! - Go!
- Those are gonna be okay, I think,
'cause they're rubber and flat.
- There you go! - Easy-peasy, baby.
- [Missy] Okay, Bryan, you're very high now!
- Keep going, Bryan. - I'm good, I'm good.
(laughs) This is awesome.
Wow, woo, how do you not twist like, twist around like this?
(jolly music)
- So, maybe if you grab one of the kid's hands
'cause we're quite high up.
You can see how high we are at this ledge.
- This is crazy! - So, we'll stop right here.
They're doing the show lights exactly how it's gonna look
for them during the show.
- [Bryan] Super high up.
- [Ollie] Look at all of them!
- Nice! - Okay, I wanna go
to the dressing room now! - Okay.
- Going.
So this is our green room, so we come here between shows.
If we wanna relax, if we wanna play a game of pool.
And we also have little like make up stations over here.
- Smile. - Whoa.
- Let me take pictures of you guys.
You guys look so creepy.
- What if your dad looked like this one?
- Go to your room! - Is there one thing in the--
- Okay, so we are now in costumes,
backstage at the Mystere show.
And they're giving us these really cool head dresses
that were designed for this show.
Oh that's great! - Yeah?
- What do you guys think?
Oh babe, look at yours, oh my gosh!
This is so cool, this seriously reminds me
of something like Lady Gaga would wear.
Ollie, did you do you do your hair this morning
all by yourself?
I love it, you kind of look like a dragon.
- [Finn] Wait, you did you hair like that?
- [Woman] Look at these giant hats.
- Oh! - Whoa!
- What is like the concept behind
some of the characters and stuff on the show?
- Mystere is a french word for mystery.
In the beginning, there's two babies, and they fall asleep.
Then they wake up and end up in this crazy world.
- Hi! (Bryan laughs)
- Look at those fingers.
You can get lots of work done with those fingers.
- Alright, one is for sea, one is for permanency.
- Oh are you gonna be like grabbing us?
- [Paul] Maybe, I guess you'll have to see.
- Okay.
So how long have you been doing this show?
- For like five years.
So it's been here for 25 years.
It's just been a big deal for so many people.
So I saw it when I was like a teenager.
I fell in love with it, I got inspired and I saw people.
And then, here I am.
So we go to the lines in the middle.
Somebody rips their knee in their costume,
they can patch it up really quickly.
- [Bryan] What are you working on, this is cool.
- [Woman] It's actually for a crisp.
- That's his new collar, oh your new collar?
- That's right, oh my gosh, you're so amazing.
You're so good to me. (jolly music)
- That was so cool you guys.
We just got back from being backstage
at Mystere Cirque du Soleil show.
The show is starting in a little bit.
But it's so cool to get to see all the artistry
and all the talent behind the scenes.
I think the boys are like super hype for it now.
- [Missy] They're so excited.
- Finn did so good on that climbing pole, I was impressed!
- Now he's trying to do more tricks on me.
- Yeah (laughs), wow!
- He's gonna be on the stage when he grows up (laughs).
- [Bryan] Maybe, maybe.

- [All] We're home!
- That's right you guys, we made it home.
You guys had a little extended vacation though.
- I know, we actually left this camera in Vegas.
If you haven't been watching.
- Oops. - Oh my gosh!
We lost the camera at the Mystere show.
- And we almost weren't able to make this video, you guys.
So hit that thumbs up button
because it was clearly so much fun.
Boys, what was your favorite part about Vegas?
- My favorite part of Vegas
was the big baby when the bottle hit his head.
- Yeah, the bottle hit his stage,
and they took me on stage!
- That was so awesome!
- How crazy was that, you guys?
- He was being a baby. - Yeah.
- You liked seeing me as a baby?
I bet. - It would've been so sad
if we lost that footage 'cause we had so much fun
just in Vegas and having fun with these boys, huh?
- Thank you, Mystere. - That's right.
Huge thank you to Mystere and Cirque du Soleil
for having us out and letting us go behind the scenes!

- Okay, ready! - One, two, three.

Boop. (pencil sketching)
(emotional music)
- We are going to be addressing some rumors.
- Enough of it! (Ollie squeals)
We're gonna get to the bottom of these nasty rumors.
- Yeah, I-- - To prove you wrong!
- [Missy] Ollie, what is that?
- Sometimes, it's hard to get away from it all.
