Four years after retiring, illusionists Siegfried Fischbacher and Roy Horn say they may just reappear.
The German-born performers' long-running "Siegfried & Roy" production ended in October 2003 when Horn was critically injured on stage by a tiger.
Horn, 63, gets a boost from visits to his family of animals at The Mirage, including Montecore, the white tiger that attacked him.
Horn and Siegfried remain convinced that Montecore sensed Horn was having a mini-stroke and was dragging him to safety, rather than attacking him.
"I hang out with my lifesaver," Horn said.
Roy Horn's recovery is a wonderful thing and his lack of resentment attests to his positive outlook on life. However, I have a difficult time viewing Montecore as a savior. He was hungry and wanted a little snack. Horn was there.
