Not to worry, he can make another one just like it.

Only if his aim is better than with the knives...

WTF? The kid is wearing a bow tie at an obviously western-themed sideshow!

I hope he misses.

Hence, the knives being thrown at him.

There are knife throwers, and then there are knife throwers.

Some of the "knife throwers" out there used a trick where they palm the knife as they pretend to throw it and a hidden accomplice shoves a flat piece of metal, shaped and colored like a knife, out of the board from behind through slits that have been cut for just that purpose. If you look at the "knives" around the boy, they are embedded very deeply in the wood. At least an inch deep. Maybe two. When you throw a knife for real into a board, it will only stick in about a quarter inch at most. Also, notice that the "knives" around the boy don't match the knives in the thrower's hand. They have no ferrule at the end of the handle or between the handle and the blade. They also don't appear to have a thick handle, although that's harder to see with the image quality.

Yabbut, look at the legs on that broad!

just look at them!

And the knife thrower is clearly wearing Florsheim zipper boots... :right:

See the hem at the bottom, it's not wood, probably canvas over hay bales.

Plus it obviously a 'little person' and NOT really a child!!:right:

I'm late, but I actually know a guy who attends that IHOP church place. It's....really hardcore over there.

LOL

That was the first thing I noticed when I saw that picture. She wins the blue ribbon for those gams.

I know! I know! Those legs go all the way to the ground! She's probably dead now, but wow. Immortalized on film and revived on the internets.
