'Human Cannon Ball' Killed in English Stunt Show (25 April 2011)

A man in his 20s, believed to have been acting as a 'human cannon ball', has been killed in an accident at a stunt show in Kent.

It is thought a safety net failed to engage during the stunt at the Kent County Showground at Detling.

The man was taken to Maidstone Hospital by air ambulance but died.

The accident happened in a performance by Scott May's Daredevil Stunt Show which began at 1500 BST. A second show due to start at 1930 BST was cancelled.

Scott May's show has been touring in the UK since 1991 in a season which runs from March to September.

As well as the human cannon ball stunt, the show also includes pyrotechnics, motorcycle jumps and monster trucks.

The words "human" and "cannon ball" shouldn't be together in the same sentence anyway
