Bubbleboy, take 2

The Discovery Science Center in Santa Ana has become embroiled in controversy because bubble artist Fan Yang will attempt to set a world record on March 18 by briefly surrounding a 40-year-old Asian elephant named Tai in a large soapy bubble as part of Bubblefest." Hundreds of readers say the event is demeaning to Tai, the 8,800-pound Asian elephant that will be placed in the non-toxic bubble. Other readers disagree.

Fan Yang: I also blow bubbles with Elephants; they love it. People don’t know what is mean having an animal in a bubble; maybe they think I will soak an elephant in a bubble or else.
