Jammie Reynolds, American Daredevil

John "Jammie" Reynolds (born 1890 or 91 - ?) was an American daredevil. Little is known about early life, what became of him once he stopped performing or even his real name. An acrobat and juggler, he was known by many names - Daredevil Johnny, Daredevil Jack, the Climbing Wonder, The Lizard, the Human Spider, and the Human Fly. A newspaper article from 1922 claims he began performing at the age six in Buffalo, balancing on one foot from a flagpole 140 feet in the air. His first major stunt came at age 12 when he climbed up the side of the Old South Building in Boston, balancing atop four chairs and five tables on a plank projected over the side of the building. He gave similar performances in New York on its iconic Flatiron building, and at home in Philadelphia. Reynolds was arrested several times after his performances accused of "unlawful assembly". A stunt performer, often referred to as a stuntman, or daredevil, is someone who performs dangerous stunts, often as a career. Photographed by the National Photo Company, circa 1912-30.

Jammie Reynolds, American Daredevil
Descripción:
Traducción automática: John "Jammie" Reynolds (nacido en 1890 o 91 -?) fue un temerario estadounidense. Poco se sabe sobre su vida temprana, qué fue de él una vez que dejó de actuar o incluso su nombre real. Acróbata y malabarista, era conocido por muchos nombres: Daredevil Johnny, Daredevil Jack, la maravilla trepadora, el lagarto, la araña humana y la mosca humana. Un artículo de periódico de 1922 afirma que comenzó a actuar a los seis años en Buffalo, balanceándose sobre un pie desde un asta de bandera a 140 pies en el aire. Su primer gran truco se produjo a los 12 años, cuando trepó por el costado del Old South Building en Boston, balanceándose sobre cuatro sillas y cinco mesas sobre una tabla proyectada sobre el costado del edificio. Realizó actuaciones similares en Nueva York, en su emblemático edificio Flatiron, y en su casa de Filadelfia. Reynolds fue arrestado varias veces después de sus actuaciones acusado de "reunión ilegal". Un especialista, a menudo denominado especialista o temerario, es alguien que realiza acrobacias peligrosas, a menudo como carrera. Fotografiado por la National Photo Company, alrededor de 1912-30
