Ringling Bros. production manager Chantal Stringer says the performer had been
preparing for an act that required he climb in and out of a wheel that rotates
on an axis. He was outside of the wheel when he plunged onto what circus-goer

Flores says the performer
landed on his right shoulder. Stringer says the performer, who has not been
named, seemed to be in "good spirits" and "doing fine"
Saturday evening. The cause of the fall is under investigation.
