The circus definitely needs youth and beauty. Makes it tough for aging performers though, but when you compare a good looking cast like this to acts with aging women in high cut costumes and bee hive hairdos, it's almost kind of sad. If you can't train dogs, what do you do when you get old?

I have always felt the same way, and have said so on many occasions, which was met with some pretty nasty opposition. It was why I quite performing in 1995, and was only drug kicking and screaming back for Evansville in the mid 2000's. When the indomitable Paul Kaye pointed out that at 49 I was the youngest performer there, it seemed alright. :) But with no young face's coming into the profession, and why should they, what is left will just get older. That's inevitable and the way life works, and yes, a youthful cast is a thing of beauty. It wasn't so many year's ago, I was a member of a number of them.

Wallenda was a fraud - he killed and maimed numerous people, putting complete novices on the wire after a few weeks of rehearsal. True, the 25 foot balance poles made it so just about anyone could do what the Wallendas did within a week, but you don't send them up 30 feet after a week.
