Zamora the Torture King is the stage name of Tim Cridland, an American sideshow performer.[1][2] Zamora was an original member of the Jim Rose Circus, where he performed painful feats as entertainment. His stunts include fire eating, sword swallowing, body skewering and electric shock.[3] Zamora co-authored (with Jan Gregor) Circus of the Scars, a history of the Jim Rose Circus. In 2022 Gregor produced a 96 minute documentary with the same title, featuring Cridland and other stars of the circus.[4]
Zamora has been featured on Ripley's Believe It or Not!, 48 Hours, Man Vs Weird and Stan Lee's Superhumans.
