Frederic Edelstein.2A, originally uploaded by bucklesw1. I came across this article on Frederick Edelstein, the star animal trainer with France's Circus Pinder, on the French circus website "Burgus Circus". Computer translations are not always accurate, but to the best of my understanding, this is what the article said... First, Frederick Edelstein was injured during a performance While he was moving a pedestal Frederick Edelstein tore a tendon in his bicep, which required surgery. He will be out four months recuperating from that surgery. The article goes on to say that the "Barnum Circus" (I took it to mean Ringling Brothers) has been in contact with Frederick Edelstein about the possibility of bringing his cage act to! the "Barnum Circus" in 2011. Also (according to the article) that Frederick Edelstein is considering it. The article originally appeared in the September 4, 2010 edition of Sud-Ouest. The article was written by Christian Drink. Frederick Edelstein is a experienced trainer. The lions, they lead after his whip from the age of 14 years. This is the t! ime he spent in the train. What has happened in the open show at Lyon, is not due to any reaction of its beasts. He says. "In the cage, the lions jump from one stool to another. By taking one of these stools, I had a torn tendon that holds the distal biceps tendon tearing full of bones. " Despite this trauma, Frederick continued the show. The public has not seen. At the end of his representation, he contacted a surgeon friend, the very man who operates the footballers OL. The verdict is final. Emergency surgery and four months of complete rest, without any effort on the arm. ! For an active man like Fred, what happens to him is appalling. "I could not do anything," he explains. I decided to leave during these four months of inactivity with my wife Sophie in the United States to visit the American circuses. " It was during his journey he crosses the Barnum circus. The number of Frederick the enormous interest. "My current issue is unique, says Frederick. I have 16 cats together. Barnum offered me to join them in 2011 and I think I'll do it for my father whom I am very attached agrees. "
