Click on photo to enlarge.
Screen shot from the 5 level human pyramid at the end of the performance in Waterboys 2 TV series.
There are 32 boys in the tower, all the boys in the school.
Their old coach is waiting for a train at the station.
Their school teacher is standing at the end of the pool with the principle.
Yet bottom right of the picture is an unidentified man giving orders, I suspect it is their real coach. His voice too strong and commanding to be that of the sweet camp school teacher.
The 5 level pyramid is difficult and dangerous, they had 2 attempts on the screen to get it right, but I suspect it took many more takes, as the coach jumps from side to side if you watch carefully.
If it is him, he trained the actors/dancers/swimmers from scratch for the performance.
The catchy Japanese song I could not recognise in an earlier post is Rainbow by Fuckuyama Masahara, it is used throughout the movie and 3 TV seasons.
