RedM Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 Stilts, brings back childhood memories. Over one Summer holidays I got quite good, got to a height of about four foot or so off the ground, that was high enough for me. Bit of a craze in my street at the time, all us kids had them. My Dad ( bless him) made them all for us, started off low and move the foot rests up as we became better. And yes @Cowshed we had many bruises and other injuries falling off them!

22A Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 I remember kids taking a board with chord attached onto the terraces at AG. The chords would be looped around fences then by putting one foot on the board, they could see over the heads of the adults in front of them. Did anyone ever take a set of stilts to a football match to see over the heads of those in front? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't/wouldn't happen nowadays... Dad would end up being sued for injury damages in next to no time... The legal rigmarole of being appropriately third party public liability insured, carrying out various risk assessments, applying for and obtaining the relevant local authority licences and permits, satisfying all the health and safety rules and regs, lab testing of the stilts materials and construction, max weight capacity approval stamps etc etc It just wouldn't realistically be viable... all this before getting yourselves kitted out with elbow, knee & head protection, not forgetting suitably 'approved for elevated use' steel reinforced footwear..

Erithacus Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 Hmm, are we about to see a rush of products from Isewater Industries? I feel some hard hats/knee pads/legal liability protection policies coming out before too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dollymarie Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 I can actually walk bloody well on stilts. Not sure I'd get them into the ground though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why they had to build the new stands bigger and better. Its to prevent the riff raff on stilts like you from standing in the car park and watching for free... those high roofs have put an end to your little games and now you have to pay like everyone else... ha, about time too no sympathy from me.
