Young acrobat falls down in Yerevan circus
Acrobat Gayane Badalyan, 14, fell down in front of hundreds of spectators in a Yerevan circus breaking an arm and leg. The performance was immediately disrupted. Schoolboy Jora Ghazaryan shot the incident by his cell phone.
Though Gayane fell down from a height of 5-6 meters, Circus Director Sos Petrosyan told A1+ the girl had fallen from a height of one meter and her condition was normal.
The girl's mother says the ropes were unsafe. Besides, Gayane performed the tricks in haste, hence the mistake.
Whether Gayane will be able to return to circus or not will be known in 30 days after doctors discard the plaster cast.
