Dua Lipa feat Miguel — 'Lost In Your Light'

  • May 26, 2017
  • Brad O'Mance

The funny thing about this is that her stunt double was actually Harry Styles.

How would we rate Dua's wirework? Well, in com­par­ison with Harry's, which just looked like someone handing on a wire, there is a strong sense of someone actually flying in this video, although having said that nobody actually knows what a human being would look like if they did actually fly.

We know nothing about the science of humans taking flight — perhaps a person flying would actually look like someone on a wire. Perhaps the first human to fly would only be able to do it if they were upside down, or maybe they'd only be able to take flight if they put a finger in each ear.

Until that day we won't ever really know whether Dua — or indeed Harry — is present­ing an accurate portrayal of flight.
