stilt walker
Tall parade entertainer
A stilt walker is a performer who walks on stilts—poles with footrests that elevate the wearer several feet above the ground.
Stilt walkers appear at parades, festivals, and circuses, often in elaborate costumes that extend to the ground to conceal the stilts: The children waved at the stilt walkers towering above the crowd.
