­Humaid Al Dhahery, 31, is the first Emirati circus performer.

The man inside the flashing suit, combines eccentric dance moves, slick circus tricks, powerful lasers and a pulsating techno soundtrack to put on a first-rate dose of family entertainment.

The intensity of Laser Man ratchets up as Al Dhahery brings more and more props to the party, including a lightsabre-like object, which he twirls around his head and rolls down his back, catching it just as it threatens to hit the floor and break the spell; and lasers, which shoot from devices strapped to his hands and forehead.

It was only last year, though, that he decided to turn his hobby into something more serious. He began watching YouTube videos of Russian and Chinese circus performers for inspiration and practising juggling, as well as his Laser Man routine, for up to four hours a day, despite ­holding a full-time job as an immigration officer in Sharjah. Al Dhahery also travelled to China recently to take part in an intensive training course. He doesn’t lack for commitment.

Mastering the dexterity needed to juggle with fire is not the only obstacle Al Dhahery has faced, though. There doesn’t appear to be any history of Emirati circus performers, even if international circus troupes do visit the UAE regularly.
