Back in the early 90's a guy by the name of Jim Rose decided that he was going to revive the traveling sideshow / freak-show of carnival days gone by. Providing inspiration the Jackasses Steve O's Fear Factors and CKY's that would follow Jim Rose Circus has now ten years later become a staple attraction on the American underground circuit.
Filmed in 1993 this group is more disturbing and cutting edge than the touring version that was recently featured in a television on the Travel Channel.
Jim Rose himself performs a myriad of acts involving years of training and condition. They range from the bed of nails to placing his face in broken glass and having audience members step on his head. He was the human dartboard long before Jackass was on MTV.
One of the most disturbing members of the troupe at the time was Matt 'the tube' Crowley. Blessed with amazing gifts in the nasal cavity area he's able to inhale objects through the nose and out his mouth. That's the least of his talents. His beer drinking ability is the envy of frat boys nationwide as he promptly inserts a 7-foot hose through his nose and into his stomach. Assisted by Rose he mixes a concoction of beer ketchup and antacid which is then injected directly into his stomach. It doesn't end there as the audience is soon invited to participate in the leftovers.
Mr. Lifto is a veteran of Rose's circus and has been with most incarnations since its inception. His amazing talent comes from his many bodily piercings (yes he is pierced there as well) and the things he can lift with them. He can lift heavy objects (bricks and irons) that have been hung from chains by inserting their hooks into his nipples tongue and other porous body parts.
You may recognize the Enigma from the X-Files television show where he played The Conundrum a freak in Dr. Blockhead's (Jim Rose) circus show. He basically did on that episode what he does on the tour. His body looks like a human puzzle and he is billed as an insectivore. Audience members are invited on stage to feed him crickets earthworms and other assorted insects.
Next up is the Torture King who performs many mind-over-matter feats involving pins and other sharp objects. Much like certain Hindu religions he impales himself all over his boy with needles. You'll see him poke them through his mouth brow and chest and in a disturbing display through his arm.
If you've never seen the Jim Rose Circus on tour or at a concert and you love the seedy carnival sideshow type of thing you owe it to yourself to check this disc out. A modern day P.T. Barnum Rose continually narrates throughout the show providing one wisecrack after another as his group of misfits and freaks strut their stuff.
