In the ballet move, entrechat, (a vertical spring from the fifth position with the legs extended criss-crossing at the lower calf), the starting and finishing position each count as one, such that in an entrechat douze there are five crossings and uncrossings. This was performed by Wayne Sleep (UK) for Record Breakers (BBC, UK) on 7 January 1973. He was in the air for 0.71 sec.
