Meteor ball comes from the water meteor and fireball in the traditional acrobatic program "Dancing Meteor" in China. A water meteor is a glass bowl tied to both ends of a rope. The bowl is filled with water, and the actors throw ropes and dance. The glass bowl spins and dances quickly, but the water in the bowl doesn't drip. The fireball tied an iron cage at each end of the rope, which was filled with burning charcoal. When dancing, two fireballs jump up and down or chase each other, just like meteors.
