I want to live back in the day when performing in the circus was popular. I want to perform and be the best performer there is. My parents may not approve, but it's my dream and I will follow it at all costs. I will do my best and become the best there is.
In 1968 the circus came to my grandma's town and I "helped" set up for free tickets. Ten years later, I left home at 17 and wound up working with that same show for five months! Hardest, lowest paying job I've ever had but man I had a blast!!
I'm 12 and I've never been to a circus but by the time I do end up going I just know it won't probably be like this but hopefully I could find one like this though
It's wonderful footage and I'm so glad it's been saved. It just hurts when you notice all the bullhooks, it's painful to see. Animals shouldn't be used for entertainment
I will surely steer clear of this circus as well as any of these trainers, elephants, participants, audience and filmmakers! Thank you for the warning, you saved me a nickel.
@@michaeltwomey2944 My dog isn’t afraid of her collar and it doesn’t leave painful scars on her flesh. Unlike the hooks used on elephants, leashes aren’t being banned around the world. You really need to educate yourself on the barbaric practice of using bull hooks on elephants. www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/why-its-time-to-end-the-use-of-bullhooks-once-and-for-all
What you don't see, is the training regimen. Circuses are and have always been a venue that hides animal cruelty for the sake of entertaining poor people who lack education.
I don't think it's weird or stupid it's interesting and amazing . It has animals and people with talents. Oh and if you don't like circus ,then why'd you end up watching this video. I'm watching because I have never been but I could sorta have an experience here but in all seriousness though you don't have to be rude

You can be anything in the circus!
Dude, I love your attitude. My parents owned a a one ring circus and I had the time of my life traveling around and living the life as a kid..

Good for you, I'm so glad that you had that adventure....

The Circus was at its peak during the Victorian Era
Look up Carson and Barnes Circus they one the few old circuses still on the road in the U.S. They out of Oklahoma but travel all over.
Even tho this was a really long time ago it still hurts me that the animals have to do that imagine what they have been though to train
It's wonderful footage and I'm so glad it's been saved. It just hurts when you notice all the bullhooks, it's painful to see. Animals shouldn't be used for entertainment
What a great look into the history of the circus! Fantastic film! All these naysayers probably never had a real childhood.
Remember when!
Cool

At 13:05 the trainer pulls the poor elephant with a bull hook to get her to play London Bridge - AVOID THE CIRCUS

Just like when you put a noose around your dog's neck when you give it a walk...

I've always loved the aesthetic of classic circuses
I don't hate the circus because of that, I hate it because of the animals abuse.
galaxii sparc they treated people and animals poorly but it’s fine cause _a e s t h e t i c_
