A circus performer has been rushed to hospital after his 'human cannonball' act went dramatically wrong.
There were gasps in the audience when the 'Bullet Man' flew through the air but missed the safety net and went hurtling towards the ground.
Footage has captured the moment Jaime Almarza Quezada is blasted in the air and comes crashing onto the floor among the crowds.
The 40-year-old father-of-two reportedly hit a clown who was knocked to the ground but was not hurt.
Spectators went running over to help him after the drama unfolded.
