More than ten years after being savagely mauled by his own tiger, tragic Las Vegas illusionist ROY HORN has undergone a “Frankenstein-like experiment” in a bid to walk again!
Sources tell The National ENQUIRER that Roy – half of the famed “Siegfried and Roy” magic act – recently sought the controversial treatment at a medical clinic in Germany. Roy, 69, remains paralyzed on his left side after being attacked by the pair’s white male tiger, Mantecore, on stage at the Mirage hotel and casino in October 2003.
“Roy is hoping against hope that he’ll walk again!” said a close source.
He recently flew to Germany with Siegfried (Fischbacher) to see celebrity doctor, Hans- Wilhelm Müller-Wohlfahrt, whose nickname is ‘Healing Hans.’” The physician is an orthopedist and sports medicine specialist, and team doctor of the German soccer club, FC Bayern Munich, said the source.
