This March 23, 2013 photo shows performer Bello Nock wearing an inflatable suit as he performs a stunt during his "Bello Mania" show at the New Victory Theater in New York. Nock,a seventh-generation circus performer, is never offstage during the 90-minute performance, which combines slapstick clowning with death-defying aerial stunts. He performs through March 31 at the New Victory before moving on to the Canadian side of Niagara Falls and then a 10-week stint at the Beau Rivage Casino in Biloxi, Miss. (AP Photo/Richard Drew)
