A 39-year-old man, a Spanish citizen, suffered a serious accident during an acrobatic performance on the 'Wheel of Death'. He was performing acrobatics, including rope jumps, when he lost his balance and fell to the ground, subsequently being struck by the wheel in motion.


His colleagues quickly intervened to help him, and he was initially transported to the hospital in Craiova. Due to severe injuries, including rib fractures, compressed vertebrae, and a serious spinal injury, he was transferred to the Capital for medical care. The police have opened a criminal case for non-compliance with workplace safety measures, considering that the man was not wearing safety harnesses during the performance.
