This is horrifying.
A traveling cast member of the Cirque du Soleil performance series died after suffering a serious fall during a show this weekend.
Yann Arnaud (pictured above) was performing during a live Cirque production of Volta in Tampa, Florida on Saturday night when he fell on stage during an aerial number, landing on his head.
