Steel of a Deal: Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Niagara Falls Odditorium Holds Free Sword Swallowing Shows on Saturday, February 25

More than 20 sword swallowers will be “dropping swords” at Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Odditoriums worldwide at 2:25 p.m. on February 25, in celebration of the 6th annual World Sword Swallower’s Day.

In excess of 125 feet of solid steel is set to go down the hatch – hopefully without a scratch!

In Niagara Falls, Vanessa Neil, one of the few female sword swallowers in the world, will perform a free sword swallowing show outside Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Niagara Falls Odditorium, located at 4960 Clifton Hill.

The show will start at 2:00 p.m. local time and culminate with an official “swallow” that will take place at 2:25:12 p.m. to coincide with the 2/25/12 date. Ripley’s Prize Giveaway and photo opportunities will follow.

Don’t Miss It!
