John Bloodworth has led an interesting life. He was once almost killed falling from an Amtrak train, which effectively ended his career working for the railroad.
That brush with death led him back into communications, and the art of publicity. The world is all the better for it, as his story of one special client will show.
John worked for the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, and while he could fill a an encyclopedia of absurd and funny stories about that time, we asked him to keep it close to seven minutes.
