This beggar appears to be levitating

            I didn't want to give up my prize window seat at the rear of the bus (I had to go right at the back as it is!) to get off to take this picture, but shooting out of the window of the bus on the other side, this beggar seems to be levitating. He has probably hauled himself supporting his weight on that long pole which he as covered with plastic flowers, but the length of time he could hold on in that position and the strength of his hand were indeed admirable. I saw similar 'levitating beggars' in a couple of other spots in Toronto as well. (Toronto, Canada, Nov.2015)
