    Tight roping is hard enough as it is without a speed bump. Plus that wire doesn’t look tight enough. Maybe Bleeb is trying to tighten the wire.

    This was a good day to perform without a net.

    This is literally the intro panel from “Speed Bump”, on Sundays anyway.

    Could be worse, could be a detour sign!

    This would be a bigger deal if it were the Wallenda’s bicycle tower.

    Went to a plaza the other day first time in a long time and the whole parking lot was strewn with speed bumps. I didn’t see the sign but got the message when I hit the first one at 20MPH, LOL!

    Bleeb’s waiting at the end cheering him on.

    Did he steal this picture from the Speed Bump comic strip?

    Working without a net is bad enough. Take a trip, have a nice fall!

    He’ll get a break all right – after he falls.

    Sure – he needs to slow down, right?

    The real trick is how Bleeb got to the top of the pole.

    Are you unaware of the cartoon “Speed Bump” which uses this very gag as its logo?

    Kind of a rip-off on the Sunday intro panel of Speed Bump.

    Could be worse, like a fork in the wire.

    “Ah crap! There’s a speed bump in the wire… for some strange reason, and there’s a weird yellow bug seems to be waiting at the other end and I… oop, never mind, the trapeze guy just stepped on it.

    WHOA! Now that’s downright freaky… that yellow bug is holding the trapeze guy down and is kicking him in the head! Holy Shmokes, now he’s dragging the trapeze guy by the leg over to the lion cage! Sheesh, I’ve never seen anything like that before.

    “I wonder if that nets gonna hold me, cause I probably ain’t gonna make it over that bump!
