[post_page_title]Christopher Walken – Circus Lion Tamer [/post_page_title]
Yep, we give you permission to pinch yourself. No, you’re not dreaming. Christopher Walken really was a circus lion tamer before he became famous – because that’s the most natural progression, right? Well, it is if you’re Christopher Walken.
The young Chris was just 15 years old when he started working for a local traveling circus, and he spent much of his week pretending to be the main lion tamer’s son as part of his act. At the end of the performance, Walken would just stroll out with a large lioness by the name of Sheba (as you do) and take a bow for the audience.
