A circus acrobat at Cirkus Brazil Jack fell during Sunday’s performance in Västerås six meters straight to the ground.
But despite the high case, the acrobat had an angel guard and survived the case without serious injuries, despite the fact that the audience that witnessed the case was convinced that the man died, writes VLT.
According to the security officers at the circus, the accident was not due to a lack of security measures or that safety lines were not used in the number performed by the acrobat. Networks are only used at higher altitudes, the circus for VLT states.
The cause of the accident must have been that the acrobat lost his grip on the rope.
The police have reported the incident as a workplace accident without suspicion of crime.
