Blackpool Tower Circus evacuated after rider injured in motorbike stunt

After a motorcycle stunt in a Blackpool circus, a man was injured after a motorcycle stunt.

The incident occurred in the Blackpool Tower Circus in the afternoon during the “Death Sphere” law, where a rider performed at high speed in a steel network sphere.

Emergency services, including multiple ambulances and fire engine, were called to the scene in the ride.

Witnesses claimed that the artist had partially lost control throughout the routine. A member of the audience said Manchester Evening News: “This was around 3.50 in the afternoon. The driver entered the knitting ball and started his performance normally.

“When the second half of his performance started, he left the bike to move the bike without a bike, but unfortunately he fell and slid the ball down.

“After falling there, he stretched there, the bike came and continued to move on his head. While checking whether the circus alternative was good, about 200 to 250 people were asked to leave the circus as quickly as possible.”

The driver was then taken to hospital suspected of serious injuries.

A North Western Ambulance Service Spokesman: “A ambulance team, an air ambulance critical maintenance team and a task officer participated in the scene after 999 calls in 15.49. A man was taken to the hospital for treatment due to serious injuries.”

Encouraging tourism in the region, Blackpool said everything said: ik We were sorry to report that he was injured during today’s performance in Blackpool Tower Circus, one of the motorcyclists in the iconic death sphere law.

“Emergency services responded quickly and rider was taken to hospital for treatment. Our thoughts are about the artist, family and the entire circus team for this difficult time. These artists are taking great risk to entertain excitement and entertain – Today was a sharper reminder of the dangers behind the show.”
