The song was first published in 1867, with words written by the British lyricist and singer George Leybourne, music by , and arrangement by . The lyrics were based on the phenomenal success of trapeze artist Jules Léotard, for whom the one-piece dancer's garment was named. The following century, the song inspired the 1934 short story The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze by William Saroyan. The film Man on the Flying Trapeze came out in 1935, starring W. C. Fields and Mary Brian. This song is sometimes associated with Emmett Kelly, who performed as a trapeze artist before becoming famous as a clown. (en)
