Shocking moment dancer is engulfed in flames during zoo performance {VIDEO}

A Chinese zoo dancer was engulfed in fire during a live performance, causing her to run into a river to put out the flames.

She made it to the water around 11 seconds after her dress caught fire. Officials at the zoo, home to almost 20,000 animals and more than 300 species, sa...
