Just how? How is that not all over the road

Yeah, this feels like it had to be staged in some way. I know there are examples of people who do shit like this, but it doesn't seem like it's a thing that would ever happen regularly.

Probably wasn't that high regularly, but people have an astounding knack for balance. I can definitely see a pre-modern deliveryboy carrying 50% of that monster pile at once on a busy day.

I wonder if it's during an event or something, and so the road is closed, making it more possible?

Could easily have a rope securing system through the middle as well. Stack everything, thread the rope and tie off at the bottom.
