With a nickname like “Nitro Girl” did you think she wouldn’t be a natural at fire breathing?

Did you see the all-new episode of Nitro Circus last night? Because I didn’t. I don’t have cable. Not even basic cable! In a way though, I’ve already felt that I’d lived the episode several months ago, not to mention a whole lot more you probably didn’t even see. But enough aboot (for the Canadians, in honor of Jolene above) me, let’s go to the circus! No, not that world renowned elephant beating circus. And no, not that low rent casino in Las Vegas, either. I’m talking aboot the Nitro Circus circus sideshow that took place in the smogged-out cuts of San Bernardino with a warehouse full of props from the old HBO Carnivale series.

Sounds like it could be a rockin' Amish band, but no, sadly. It's just the photographic remnants from our spat of days spent at Bam's way back in July with the Nitro Circus crew.

nitro circus – the mega-rampage promo

warning
These webclips feature stunts performed either by professionals or under the supervision of professionals. MTV and the producers must insist that no one attempt any activity performed on the site.

Tonight on an all-new episode of Nitro Circus you will see humans flip, fly, fall, and flail. Actually, that could probably be the tonal description for every episode of Nitro Circus, but ’tis always good fun to see the inventive ways they come up with to do such things. Like this here mega-ramp. It’s a training structure, somewhat along the lines of that pretend bra or pair of hybrid diaper/underpants you used to wear. Or maybe you’re still wearing them, I don’t know. But if that’s truly the case then I question your parents ability to adequately monitor what their kids are up to online. You know there is all sorts of poop and stuff on here, right? Well, hell, if you’re still wearing training underpants then I guess you’re more than familiar with poop already. So carry on and don’t forget to train your wayward eyes in the direction of MTV this evening at 10:00pm ET/PT.
