AI told me not to use the term “death drop”, because this move is not a proper death drop, but a simple dip. A death drop would imply prior spiraling and slamming down as hard as possible. The first time I learned a proper dip was for Vogue by Madonna (a year ago) in high heels, so now it was a breeze. I’ll dig out the vogue video, but I remember it wasn’t obvious to sit on a stiletto heel, so I had to contort my foot to the side. So, preferred terms would be soft dip or hard dip. This is a soft dip. 

here is a full clarification, apparently it is the same thing. Btw, I always touch my head to the floor. I don’t get the idea of giving an “illusion” that it touches. In the Circus routine it is a full body level dip. Dip it is.
