The Human Cannonball Crusaders show was worth the price of the Ohio State Fair admission! 

Tell me about the act.

I have been a human canon ball for twenty two years. I have been shot about 7,000 times. I just did the tv show “America’s Got Talent”, where I lit myself on fire and was shot from a cross bow.

How did you get into this?

I live in Peru, IN and they have an amateur circus for kids. I did that every year since I was eight years old. When I graduated from high school, I went professional. I did flying trapeze for sixteen years. After that, I decided to build a canon and have been doing that ever since.

Did you build this canon?

Yes. I have built seven canons. Now, I have three canons and a cross bow.

Do you have some unique George Jetson fuel?

Yeah, I keep it a secret, since I design and build them. I don’t reveal how it works. I am self taught. I designed it, build it, then taught myself how to fly out of it.
