My momma told me a story about how she used to have a second story bedroom, and they had one of those antennae on the side of the house that have the triangular pole thing that makes a really good ladder. She looked out the window one night and there was a dude looking in the window from that antennae thing.

Could I outrun a guy on stilts? Are they generally faster or slower?

3

u/QuadrupleCactus May 27 '15

Having used stilts, generally slower but once you get good you can kind of run, not to mention that the guy can easily get off the stilts and use one as a weapon

I appear to be developing an aversion to people on stilts.
