Building Human Towers
Building human towers is a competitive event. The videos below are from the event in the Catalonia area of Spain. The event combines strength, agility, teamwork, daring, and luck. These towers are several degrees more difficult than what we see performed by cheerleaders in the US. If you have a few minutes to spare check these videos.
Background and History of the Concurs de Castells
Concurs de Castells-2016
The video below, shows one of the groups actually building and dismantling the human tower. This is quite a feat with contests being conducted every two years.
The people in the stands really seem to get into it. Interesting to see what passes for fun in different parts of the world. I'm guessing they would find baseball to slow and boring. We don't all have to like the same things.
