Help! Have you ever seen...

[suzyqscraps]

an act/show where someone pretends to be a midget? I guess it's really 2 people, but one person is the head and hands, and another uses their hands (covered in shoes) as the feet. My mom-in-law wants to do it for a skit at the fam reunion this weekend, but can't remember how. I've been looking online, but obviously I'm not searching with the right words.

Does anyone know the details of how this is done? The name of this act/skit/whatever it is? I'll keep searching in the meantime...

Thx!

I did it in college for a sorority skit. One person lays ontheir back with thier knees bent & their feet on the floor. A second person in a really big long sleeved shirt sits on them, well, balances themselves while straddling them. They pull their shirt down over the other persons knees and pull their own arms into the shirt, so their arms look short.

At least that is how I remember doing it. It was 20 years ago so I might be misremembering.
