Stilt walkers are an interesting entertainment phenomenon. Although hired mostly for their visibility & heads above the rest... let's face it... they are quite simply… just tall. [To be fair, however, they are more talented than say a man in a cherry picker...] So whether they have 4 knees or 5, 8 pockets or 9 it's all the same... tall or taller. Except for the Texas Stilt Walker. Here it's about how bowed they are. What's their sway & swagger ratio... can you drive a VW through their legs or an oil truck. And how many spurs... 6 or 7. So kudos to the Texas Stilt Walker... Yee High! Friday, August 14, 2009
