How many of us used to dream of joining the circus when we were children? Well, Chris Sayers, a trapeze artist at Zippo's Circus, did just that. It took him ten years of training before he felt confident enough to perform six meters above the ground. Since then he has become one of the few people in the world who can do four somersaults one after the other. There are many risks involved in this job. Trapeze artists need to work with a partner the can depend on. When flying though the air at 60 mph, they have to be sure their partner will catch them. "Many times in the past, if I hadn't had a partner I could trust, I would have fallen and probably hurt myself seriously," says Chris. People who work in the circus love the risks and the thrill of their profession. Broken bones are part of their job. "I just wish they didn't take so long mend," Chris explains. He earns £500 per week, but it is certainly not easy money. найти в тексте глаголы прошедшего времени
