Just when I kiddingly said, wouldn't it be interesting to see a wingwalker at this air show when Teresa Stokes jumps out and does her fearless acrobatics in mid-flight. Here she is leaving her seat and walking onto the wing. You will have to click on the photo to get a larger image. I really wished I had a longer lens. :)
Held in place just with a lap belt.
Teresa's been doing this since 1988 and the last time I rode a rollercoaster was years ago. I am sure my piddly 2 minute amusement park ride pales in comparison to what she is feeling in this photo.
More mid-air acrobatics
As if standing on her feet wasn't hard enough, here she is standing on her head.
Teresa takes a much deserved victory lap to a cheering crowd.
