THIS is the horrifying moment eight acrobats plunged 20 feet to the floor and suffered broken bones and spine injuries.
Eight aerialists were suspended by their hair during a 2014 Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey circus performance in Providence, Rhode Island, when the frightening fall took place.
The acrobats' stunt equipment failed to work when a metal clip broke during the show.
This prompted eight women to drop more than 20 feet to the ground - landing on a dancer, the New York Times reported.
All nine performers were rushed to the hospital after suffering "life altering" injuries.
Video footage of the "hanging hair act" - which has been shared to YouTube and viewed more than 2.4 million times - shows the moment the performers abruptly crash to the indoor arena's floor.
Just moments after a colorful curtain unveiled the hair act - people gasped with amazement at the sight.
Eight women appeared to be hanging by their hair in a circle above the circus ring.
As the show's announcer welcomed the performers, he began to say: "Suspended only by the strength of..."
However, he was unable to finish his sentence as the equipment and the performers came crashing to the ground.
