"Kassym was fixed and hung up by the vest. The rope around his neck that the audience saw was a fake, this is part of the costume, it was not tightened," she explained.
According to the manager, the stuntman was hanging for 15 minutes, with his colleague watching over his condition. When they got him down, he was still conscious, but he felt bad. He was taken out of the room and the administration called an ambulance.
