If you look at pictures of people doing a “human flag pole” you’ll see that they all have their arms spread wide, with one hand above them and the other one below. And if you look at the guy in the background, you can see he is looking at the guys feet instead of at the man himself. So, yes, this old guy is absolutely being lifted up by his feet.
Why are his feet out of frame? 🤔
