I'll bet I might be the only person in my #Mastodon orbit that has a professional #stiltwalker in the fam.

From her Flamebouyant Productions FB feed, this is my DIL performing a few days ago at the #Oregon Country Fair.

She walked thru the show while it was packed with people, and second shot (blurry, sorry) is of my granddaughter (red circle) who was tasked with clearing the way. She use a pump sprayer with water to get people's attention so they'd move.

She had a little difficulty going under the old bridge at Viewforth! But she managed!

Dave Greenwood, Stilt Walker

This was taken in Aldeburgh, Suffolk, in about 1979 at the Aldeburgh Carnival. Dave was using his not inconsiderable skills as a stilt walker for this parade, to raise funds for the events. He and I were part of the Performing Folk Group Magic Lantern, based at the time in nearby #Leiston.

Tripod fish are known as 'Stilt walkers' due to their meter long fins used to stand on the ocean floor.
