Wall of Death

Five-year-old Joey Ellis on the base of the 'Wall of Death' with his uncle Al Evans. 

I don't think this performance would be likely to be approved by today's 'Health & Safety' regime - for several reasons

-  not the safest of seating positions for the five-year-old.

-  no crash helmets

-  etc!

Here is another 'Wall of Death' photo from the same Carnival:
