Diego Zeman – the human cannonball It’s a cold Saturday afternoon and I’m at Cottle and Austin’s Circus to meet Diego Zeman, their human cannonball. When I (0) inside the Big Top, I (1) Diego immediately. His act is about to start and he (2) on top of the cannon. He then (3) inside it, and suddenly he shoots out, flies through the air and lands safely in the net. The whole act only (4) a couple of minutes, but I’m sure that Diego (5) nerves of steel – it’s frightening stuff!
When we talk later on, Diego tells me that he (6) nervous at first, but then he feels free for the moments he (7) through the air – the whole two seconds! Diego (8) from a circus family, so he grew up amongst performers. His job may be glamorous, but it’s hard work and Diego (9) a lot of money. He (10) with the circus and travels with them, and he (11) a couple of hours in the gym every day to control his weight and strengthen his legs and back. But he does it because he (12) the work.
