A question has been puzzling me for sometime and I wonder if anyone of you KineJapaners might be able to help.<br><br>The art animator <a href="http://tomoyasu.net/">Tomoyasu Murata</a> has a series of comical shorts featuring Sakadachi-kun (aka Handstand Boy) who runs about upsidedown on his hands. If I recall correctly, one of Donald Richie's Five Filosophical Fables (1967) also featured a man walking around Ginza or thereabouts on his hands. Does anyone know if there are any other stories out there featuring walking on the hands? I have a feeling that it has just been done by Murata for comic effect, but I was curious if there might be a greater significance / storytelling tradition that I should be aware of. <br>
