The annual Catalan festival season is in full swing in Spain, along with the traditional Castells troupes - groups of people who build human towers, competing with one another to see who can build the tallest, or the tower with the most people.
It's quite a spectacle. If you ever get the chance to see it in person, I recommend it as a lot of fun. The people enter into the spirit of the thing, and there's much good humor, wine and song to be shared. I've only been there once, but I'd love to go again.
This video clip demonstrates how it's done.
Great fun to see in person.
