After 11 years of performing the “dental trick”, as it is known, her worst fears were realised. A sharp pain in her jaw as she turned in circles around the big top made her relax her bite. She plunged more than 30ft and was taken to hospital unconscious.

SINCE being sold to an Indian circus owner at the age of five, Kumari Lama had
spent much of her life performing a high-wire act in which she gripped a
rope with her teeth and whirled 40ft above the ring without a safety net.

Forced to perform the stunt at least five times a day, she was in a state of
constant panic that she would fall.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/asia/article4364184.ece">
Kumari is one of 17 girls who were rescued last month from the Raj Mahal
circus, one of India’s biggest, where they had been made to perform
dangerous stunts under the threat of savage beatings. They were freed by the
London-based Esther Benjamins Trust, which reunites circus girls with their
families and educates them at centres in Nepal.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/asia/article4364184.ece">
He said his latest raid, carried out with Indian police and the Childline
India charity, had almost wiped out child trafficking in the Hetauda
district of Nepal.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/15FA05DF-7233-4D94-8739-65015CB6E80F/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
