Interesting fact:

Christopher Walken has been in some unusual roles, but that’s nothing compared to his REAL life. At age 15, he travelled with the circus as a lion tamer. “The real lion tamer who owned the circus, the gag was that he had a son, which he didn’t,” he told journalists. “But I had an identical outfit, and he would do this big act with a dozen big cats. Then he would send them all out at the end and just leave this one old girl, and I would come in with my whip … She was really more like a dog. She was very sweet.”
