Flea circus. Children watching a performance of the Hans Mathes Flea Circus. This circus features trained human fleas (Pulex irritans) performing a range of tricks and stunts. These include kicking balls,pulling miniature carriages and dancing in tiny costumes. The tricks rely on the natural movements of the fleas and on their strength; they can carry objects of 20,000 times their own body weight. The circus performs to audiences of up to 20 people,children taking the front seats. The fleas are viewed through a magnifying glass held by an assistant,as seen here. The circus performs for 2 weeks a year at the Munich Oktoberfest in Germany | |
