City panel bans flaming "human cannonball" (Sorry Underpants)
<snip>

"Bailey's Comet" will not soar brightly when "The Greatest Show on Earth" visits Van Andel Arena this week.

Worried that a flaming man being shot out of a cannon will send kids the wrong message on the eve of Fire Prevention Week, Grand Rapids city commissioners Tuesday snuffed one of the headline acts for Ringling Bros. and Barnum &Bailey circus.

The city's fireworks permit still allows performer Tina Miser to shoot her husband, Brian Miser, out of a cannon. But the permit won't allow her to douse him with lighter fluid before she sends him sailing across the arena.
