Model Agent, Cirque du Soleil Acrobat
Meet a guy whose job entails working with beautiful people around the clock and another who does high flying for a living.

Gary Dakin is Vice President of Client/Manager Services at Ford Models, one of the most renowned modeling agencies in the world. Gary works closely with models and supermodels and has helped advance the careers of many beautiful people, including plus-size model Crystal Renn. He also deals with Ford's clients on a regular basis. By being available to his models and clients 24/7, it's hard for Gary to have much of a personal time for himself -- but he knows it's a sacrifice that comes with a job that he loves.

Christian Durocher has the honor of working at probably the most famous circus in the world. He's a cast member with the Cirque du Soleil show, KÀ. Every night, he performs amazing acrobatics in front of hundreds of people at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Intense gymnastics training throughout his youth prepared him well for his high-flying act, which carries a substantial level of risk. To help minimize the risks -- and to make sure each performance goes off without a hitch -- he and the rest of the cast spend ample time training and rehearsing.
