What a feat! Is it nonsense to build a tower of people for a few seconds? Not at all! This is the common effort of a great (and big) community who plan and practice together, who join together in (at least) three generations, who keep the spirit up in the smallest, the young and the old, who build up the trust to send their most precious members, the children, to the top. It's colossal, it's bestial, it's majestic (in the words of Kayla below)! Most humble congratulations come from a German guy who stumbled over this channel a few months ago, watching the SAJB videos (another incredible action going on in Catalonia). I was fascinated by the Castellers and grabbed some information about the castells and your communities. I'm overwhelmed by all this, and this special moment seems appropriate to comment on it. Kind regards, Paul from Germany P.S. How many people were involved in this? 200 or more?
Hi Paul! We were about 500 hundred castellers to build up this tower. Have you ever seen a performance in person? It's so much more impressive than watching it in video.
Ok, anyway I hope some day you have the chance to see a performance in person because if a video overwhelms you this much, just imagine how stunning and mesmerizing it's a live performance, it's all an experience!
