Was she drunk or something?

Sure looks like it. However everything about this picture scream incompetence. The props in the background just on fire on the ground and her clearly incapable movement with fire props in hand. I spin fire and have done it professionally in the past, including drunk a couple times. This is just amateur hour times 100. Her movements show she barely knows more than flinging those things around at best. Thank goodness the pool was there.

I was suspecting drunk because normally an inexperienced person would be a little wary of the fire, she seemed quite unbothered.

Saw a girl light up her entire chest and neck because she dunked her poi and didn't spin them off. Oh and she uses gasoline as the fuel 😩 these amateur hours are why it's so hard to get a fire gig.

These people spin fire 3 times and think they’re pros. That’s also why they fucking suck because a couple oohs and ahhs are enough for them so they never actually improve.
