rola bola straightjacket escape

[gav]

anyone seen this or is doing it?
Struck me today, that out of all the jackets and bolas that I've seen, I've yet to see this combo.

[Jim]

Blair Tollefson in Boston used to do it. But I don't think he's doing it much these days.

And I've seen someone else doing it somewhere but I have no memory of who it was.

How about straight jacket on a pole?

[gav]

thought about it, but i rekon straight jacket pola bola is the way of the future.
if only i could figure out how to mount the whole thing on the back of a pony that gallops around in circles.

escapism

yeah, that is funny...i have seen the unicycle straightjacket escape (dave holder) and the stilt straightjacket escape (colt sandberg), and the hanging upside down straightjacket escape (some guy), but i have yet to see the rolabola straightjacket escape. you know, we may be running out of ideas on this planet

[gav]

no running out of ideas in my life time.
in fact, no running at all in my life time.

there was also a guy called mr. fish in oz that did straight escape uni.

hows this, headstand in a toilet on top of a pole.

or chain escape on a rolling globe.

or how about being marinated and skewered on a giant rotisery and then escaping from it as you rotate above the hot burning coals.

coals to newcastle?

toilet on a pole, let’s see that must be Noah. saw him Great show. chains on a ball is pretty good. the rotisserie coal escape, however, i really like.

my point about ideas is something else and would enjoy to talk about it in depth, but not here.

as for not running. yeah, i am all into that

Something Original...Maybe?

I am toying with the idea of making a balloon animale on top of a 3 meter pole!

For Christ sake think for yourself.
The person doing the show is so much more important than the "show"!

[Barry]

right on jesus

of course, you’re right its the content not the package. it is just funny to me the limited amount of formats presented and the way in which the "new" thing is so often a rearranged or spiced up version of the last thing we saw.

also i wanted an excuse to say "right on, jesus"
