Alzana was great. Glad you mentioned his name Bill.

They said he used to walk the railings up high in the garden.

I believe he came from a family of Welsh coalminers

THE GREAT ALZANA'S hobby was repairing watches.
I guess the focus was good for his nerves.

This leg-killing walk up the 45-degree incline, to the musical accompaniment of "Impossible", was blamed on, or suggested by, either John North or Art Concello. After a strenuous act at forty feet, his descent saw him back on this cable for a tedious return to the track.
