Ta daaaaaaa!
Please allow me to be your virtual RINGMASTER for this amazing display of skill (and to a lesser extent, price gouging)!
Yes, those blurs inside the steel cage sphere are the two or three dudes racing as fast as possible around a tiny, albeit three dimensional track!
A very daring man who walks in a human hamster wheel attached to a bunch of metal that spins around like a human powered fair ride! It was cooler than it looks in this pic and the dude either almost fell or hammed it up really well so KUDOS to you brave sir!
Some dude in that pyramid actually did fall but caught himself on the wire with his leg, but got back up and tried again. What a trooper! Good show!
Of course, juggling was next.

Laser guided human munitions! Seriously, that cannon had a laser sight which was probably also a rangefinder too. That vehicle had more technology that the rest of the show combined. Every other thing in the show had probably been unchanged for like 100 years or so but that cannon truck had a green laser sight/rangefinder and very precise hydraulic roll control and an in-barrel cctv monitor. It was my favorite part. All of a sudden the future rolled up and took my breath away. I am not sure if you can tell from the picture but I think it was hovering a few inches off the ground and on the other side I am pretty sure I saw a Mr. Fusion.

Oh yeah, and there were clowns but I didn't like them at all and i didn't take any pictures and they may have been culturally insensitive.
The circus was fun, and William really enjoyed it. Especially when the cannon "went pop" and the human cannonball shot out. It was no Ringling Brothers, but for a smaller circus, they did a good job.
The clowns WERE pretty awful, I agree.
