Phew...had me goin’ there for a bit.
thats why he needs to do it naked, or atleast just wearing a banana hammock! lol
Too many postings like this refer to a pix but don’t post the pix. Thanks for the posting w/o going to the link.
How does he get into and out of said harness with people watching?

Gee. Something from Britain that isn’t about islam?
I hope the bus driver stayed away from telephone poles
I did not see that part...
