Lucky Ball: A Sword Swallower’s History of Sword Swallowing

In this episode, we take a deep dive to explore the life of sword swallower Lucky Ball, who worked with Ringling Brothers Circus, Clyde Beatty Circus, Royal American Shows, Ripley’s Believe It or Not, and many other shows, and was known as “The World’s Greatest Sword Swallower” for swallowing up to 16 swords at once. He also taught sword swallowing to Estelline Pike, and performed in a number of films.

Lucky Ball’s story comes from his chapter in the book “To The Hilt: A Sword Swallower’s History of Sword Swallowing” by sword swallower Dan Meyer and sideshow historian Marc Hartzman (Schiffer Publishing), now available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Target, Walmart and more:
