The dancer posted a video of the daring act, racking up 1.5m views and over 13,000 likes, which is inspired by a historical photograph.

The image shows a woman, dressed as a cat, walking en pointe across multiple upright glass bottles, reports What’s The Jam.
In the background, her partner, Richard, pours himself a glass – just like the man is pictured doing so in the vintage snap.
Ashlee, from New York, US, who is wearing a sleek black catsuit, complete with ears, eyes and whiskers, gracefully tip toes across the bottles with ease.
The caption reads: “I found this old photo in middle school and fell in love with.
“All I knew of her was that she practiced eight to nine hours a day.

“As a ballet dancer I was in awe of her.
“I didn’t understand how she could do it, so I started trying.
“I’m 2014 I began working with bottles mostly for photos (because it was incredibly hard).

“After much practice I developed my own unique act in 2015 before getting to debut it publicly for Trent Fraser and Dom Pérignon.
“I am honoured to make my own stamp on history.
“I am endlessly grateful to a woman from the past whom I will never get the chance to meet.
“You never know where inspiration will take you.”
Ashlee, who has previously appeared on both Britain’s Got Talent and America’s Got Talent, is no stranger to jaw-dropping stunts.
Her unique style, which she calls acroballet, fuses classical dance with acrobatics and often pushes the limits of what seems humanly possible.
Users have flocked to the comments to share their reactions.
One person commented: “AMAAAAAZZZING!!!”
Another user wrote: “Incredible.”
“Obsessed with you, you’re my inspiration for my pointe goals,” commented one person.
Someone else added: “Sometimes I fall over my own feet or choke on air but yeah this is cool too.”
Another viewer said: “I can do that! By that I mean wear a waistcoat and drink while my mrs gets on with it.”
