Need Danish circus photo caption translated to English?

I am researching the Wallenda Circus family. There is a photo and description of Engelbert Wallenda in the top left hand side of this page:

http://timarit.is/view_page_init.jsp?pageId=436983...

From the google translation, I understand that the performer is a man with strong nerves, who send shivers down the spine of his watchers. In this photo, he is performing on a wire 20 meters above a zoo in Berlin.

Can someone give me a clearer idea of the REST OF THE DESCRIPTION? How does it describe his act? Is he "spinning" around the wire while attached to the "ball"? Is someone in the ball?

The other question I have is WHEN WAS THE PHOTO TAKEN?

The Engelbert I am researching would have been almost 75 yrs old when this was published in 1953. The photo looks older than that. Does the last part of the description indicate that this is a vintage photo from years ago? Or can you tell from the type of magazine it is in if it might be likely to contain photos of old circus acts.
