  This is little Carla Wallenda (b.1936), a member of the famous “Flying Wallendas” family, at age 5. "By the age of 3, Carla shared top billing as the feature of a short subject movie with Lou Jacobs, Ringling Brother Circus feature clown, as Carla traversed the high silver strand as a bone-fide wire walker!" [1] Last year (2012), Carla performed her incredible death-defying aerial routine at every performance of the Space Coast State Fair in Brevard County. She's 76 years old. Lou Jacobs (Johann Ludwig Jacob) (1903-1992), was an Auguste Master Clown who performed for Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus for more than 60 years (1925-1985). In 1966, Jacobs' now-famous clown face was on a United States commemorative postage stamp. He was inducted into the International Clown Hall of Fame in 1989. [2]
