There is a scene where a circus performer puts her face under the foot of an elephant. During this act, her jealous co-performer threatens to give the command that would have the elephant put his foot down, but he is stopped.

I'm honestly not sure, but there is a lot of weirdly-placed jealousy. I don't know if Charlton Heston and Betty Hutton are necessarily dating when she starts flirting with the new circus performer, but if so it might trigger someone when she starts to show a preference for the new performer. It's also unclear to me whether the duo in the elephant act are actually together or if Lyle just imagines that he and Angel are together.

There is a fall from the trapeze that ends up severely injuring a character. The character's body is shown hitting the ground. He is conscious and talking afterwards with a trickle of blood from the corner of his mouth. He ends up unable to use his arm.

Technically no, but makeshift medical procedures are performed.

Not on-screen, but I do think that discerning viewers know that circus animals are usually abused during training, and there are a lot of on-screen animal antics.

One of the supporting characters always wears his clown makeup. There's at least one scene of him putting on his clown act. There are various other clown-faced characters at other times.
