Althoff Riding Tiger 1970 #4


The tiger was so big that when he would step down, the horses knees would actually buckle a bit. For the finish the horse would galop around the arena and the tiger would vault repeatedly from the ground to it's back, always returning to the mat seen in picture #1 so the distance would be equal for each run.

Not only that, when he bounded out of his shifting cage into the arena, the audience never failed to produce gasps of awe and admiration.

And I'll be damned if I can remember his name.
