the last gasp
They’re Back! For one night. For one trick. With Montecore, the same tiger that ate Roy’s face… Sorry, “moved him out of danger”. According to E! online,
“The illusionist suffered deep wounds to his neck, massive blood loss, a crushed windpipe and a minor stroke when their beloved pet dragged him offstage before a shocked crowd. Horn survived after two surgeries and extensive physical rehabilitation. Although the incident left him partially paralyzed with limited motor skills, doctors described his recovery as “miraculous.” … Horn then came out unaided, wearing black robes, a white shirt and a skeletal mask. After opening a silver lid that emitted flames, his partner of four-plus decades emerged, wearing white robes and a mask.”
The BBC says
“After the incident, Horn claimed that the tiger had tried to move him out of danger after he fainted – a theory which was disputed by animal experts.”
Beloved pet my ass… Just like good ol’ Travis.
