Yes, this fellow was showing off how he could stand on TWO pumpkins at the same time. Not an easy feat considering the actual distance between the two pumpkins.
Of course I would be remiss if I didn't mention the obvious - that wonderful pecan he's just discovered and is moments away from enjoying.

It sits on the land that was once Meigs Field Airport. When the airport closed, "Hizzoner" Mayor Richard M. Daley proposed the space become a lakefront park and nature reserve. Because the venue sits on nature preserve land, no permanent structure can be build on it. Thus the facility is taken down and stored after the summer concert season ends.
The Chicago Park District operates the venue.
The aicraft on the left pulling up hard on the cyclic stick while pushing the joystick forward is a The Westland Scout which was a light helicopter developed by Westland Helicopters. Developed from the Saro P.531, it served as a land-based general purpose military helicopter, sharing a common ancestor and numerous components with the naval-orientated Westland Wasp helicopter. The type's primary operator was the Army Air Corps of the British Army, who operated it in several conflict zones including Northern Ireland and the Falklands War. It was progressively replaced in British service by the Gazelle reconnaissance helicopter, and the larger Westland Lynx battlefield utility helicopter.
The The Aérospatiale Gazelle is the aircraft on the right and is a French five-seat helicopter, commonly used for light transport, scouting and light attack duties. It is powered by a single turbine engine and was the first helicopter to feature a fenestron tail instead of a conventional tail rotor. It was designed by Sud Aviation, later Aérospatiale, and manufactured in France and the United Kingdom through a joint production agreement with Westland Aircraft. Further manufacturing under license was performed by SOKO in Yugoslavia and the Arab British Helicopter Company (ABHCO) in Egypt.
Since being introduced to service in 1973, the Gazelle has been procured and operated by a number of export customers. It has also participated in numerous conflicts around the world, including by Syria during the 1982 Lebanon War, by Rwanda during the Rwandan Civil War in the 1990s, and by numerous participants on both sides of the 1991 Gulf War. In French service, the Gazelle has been supplemented as an attack helicopter by the larger Eurocopter Tiger, but remains in use primarily as a scout helicopter.
This aerial display took place at AAC Middle Wallop which is a British Army base near the Hampshire village of Middle Wallop. The base hosts 2 Regiment Army Air Corps and the Army Aviation Centre. The role of 2 Regiment is training and so AAC Middle Wallop is the base where most Army Air Corps pilots begin their careers. The base was previously under Royal Air Force control and it was then known as RAF Middle Wallop.
A close look at the backround reveals that there are several spectators us the nearby Danebury Hill as a vantage point. Danebury is an Iron Age hill fort about 19 kilometres (12 mi) north-west of Winchester. The site, covering 5 hectares (12 acres), was excavated by Barry Cunliffe in the 1970s. Danebury is considered a type-site for hill forts, and was important in developing the understanding of hill forts, as very few others have been so intensively excavated.
Built in the 6th century BC, the fort was in use for almost 500 years, during a period when the number of hill forts in Wessex greatly increased. Danebury was remodelled several times, making it more complex and resulting in it becoming a "developed" hill fort. It is now protected as a Scheduled Ancient Monument, a Site of Special Scientific Interest and a Local Nature Reserve. The spectators are about 1.5 miles (2.4km) distant.
