Demetrius Alexandro Claudio Amadeus Bello Nock (born September 27, 1968), often known simply as Bello, is an American comic-daredevil and circus performer. Nock has been listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for the longest unsupported tightrope walk.[1] He has performed several stunts in New York City, including rappelling off of Madison Square Garden and hanging from a helicopter over the Statue of Liberty.[2] He has been included in a Time magazine list of "America's Best Artists and Entertainers".[3]
Born in Sarasota, Florida, Nock is a seventh-generation circus performer, a descendant of the family that founded Switzerland's famous Circus Nock in the 18th century.[4] He was a star attraction for the Big Apple Circus and for the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus before pursuing an independent career as a performer.[5]
In 2001, Time magazine included him on a list of "America's Best Artists and Entertainers", as "America's Best Clown".[3] In 2004, the Daily News said that he "might be the greatest athlete ever to set foot in the World's Most Famous Arena"[6] (Madison Square Garden). In 2009, he was inducted into the Circus Ring of Fame.[5] In 2026, he was inducted into the International Clown Hall Of Fame.
Nock appeared on America's Got Talent in 2017; in 2018, his daughter Annaliese reached the second round with an exploding coffin act.[7] In 2019, he took part in Britain's Got Talent: The Champions with his daughter Annaliese.[8] In 2020, he started a YouTube channel.[9] He is a born-again Christian.[10] In October of 2023, one of Nock's daughters, Angelina, would join the popular monster truck league, Monster Jam, and is currently a driver of the Megalodon monster truck. On August 21, 2026 in Fort Worth, Texas Bello rejoined the Ringling Bros. Circus as a guest performer and it was announced that he would continue to perform for the remainder of the tour.
