During the performance in the Moscow Circus on Vernadsky Prospekt, an emergency occurred that will make even the most sophisticated audience shudder for a long time.
In the arena between two dangerous predators, a fight broke out. Trying to prove his leadership, the tiger attacked the lion. That, in turn, gave him a rebuff.
At first, the Zapashny brothers – Edgard and Askold – tried to calm the predators by throwing circus curbstones at them. But this did not affect them.
Then Askold decided to resort to extreme measures – he shot into the air. This cooled the bestial fervor of predators.
Spectators watched in horror at the arena, one of which photographed what had happened on video. Later, the video was published in his “Instagram” by Askold himself.
“For the first time, I shot from a light-noise weapon, and, thank God, I managed to stop Philip’s lion, who wanted to join the” battle, “said the trainer.
