We didn't think it was possible for a Beyoncé performance to improve, but then she wore a ponytail.

Being the extraordinary Queen that she is, this was no ordinary ponytail -- but rather a slicked back, braided masterpiece that cascaded down her back.

On Tuesday night, Bey and her ponytail slayed her Formation World Tour performance at the Esprit Arena in Düsseldorf, Germany, and people are still not over it.

Here's a clip of Beyoncé twirling her ponytail (on them haters) like the flawless human that she is:

As the night went on, Bey's ponytail began to perfectly complement her choreography. With each powerful twirl and every dramatic whip and swing of her hair, fans become more and more mesmerized.

In fact, even after concert-goers left, many were so hyped up about the pony tail that they needed to share their thoughts on Twitter.

It gave people life.

It made people question the talent of pop stars.

Some saw it as a potential danger.

Some compared it to Mortal Kombat.

To others, it was a religious experience.

One fan even saw Bey's ponytail as her dream job.

Becky with the good hair, bow down.
