Experience the bizarre world of Scott Baker, master of the Bally stage at Coney Island's world-famous Sidehow By The Seashore. Watch Scott as he performs hardcore sideshow geeking acts such as razor blade eating, "The Human Pin-cushion," "The Human Blockhead," and watch, if you can, as he consumes a meal of glass shards. Meet fellow sideshow performers who share the stage with him such as Insectavora (the sensual Coney Island Fire-Eater), Bambi the Mermaid (burlesque star and unnoficial Queen of Coney Island), Serpentina the snake charmer as well as other Coney Islands personalities. It's all REAL, it's all HERE, it's all ALIVE! COME ON IN!
