Huh. The image was very weird to me, but I’ve played some version of this as a kid. Team one makes this structure against a wall, team two send people to jump and crawl forward, the goal being to break the “bridge”. I can’t even remember what we fucking called this game, this was in Lebanon in the late aughts/early tens.
There’s something about how most teenage boys are wired that made it feel exceptionally badass when your team was on the bottom and you didn’t crumple when it was the turn of one of the large gentlemen on the other team to jump.
In Russia it was called Slon (the elephant) - team one jumps on team two, then team two tries to walk. And there's a "stationary" version by the wall or a tree.
I have only heard of it being played in Soviet times (pic 1), but apparently this is still happening in summer camps and such (pic 2)
lol its actually a traditional game. try searching 말뚝박기
many other countries also have something similar
In the US it’s called Buck Buck, or Johnny-on-a-Pony.

...Oh...
Well, it's certainly eye-catching.
Is that the game from fat Albert?
Buck buck!
This game is called cavall fort (strong horse) in my language.
Never understood why, but it's called "thick milk" in mine.
Does the standing kid lift all the others up in a massive stacked Tombstone(the wrestling move)?
