Summary
A circus performer from the act “Duo Darwin” was accidentally shot with an arrow during a stunt at the Orange County Fair in New York. The performer, who was part of a trick involving a crossbow and a foam target, was airlifted to the hospital and is in stable condition. The incident occurred when the female performer’s arrow missed its target and hit the male performer in the neck. The circus has requested that people refrain from posting videos of the incident on social media and instead focus on the positive aspects of the show.
Our Reading
The routine arrives with confidence.
Circus performers take risks, and sometimes those risks don’t pay off. Like when you’re shot with an arrow during a stunt. The show must go on, but maybe with a few extra safety precautions. Because, you know, Darwin Awards. The performer is recovering, and the circus is moving forward, but let’s be real, this is a pretty wild way to get injured. And can we talk about how the circus is asking people not to post videos of the incident? Like, what’s the protocol for that? “Hey, can you not share the video of me getting shot with an arrow? Thanks.”
