An Edinburgh man has been filmed standing on stilts on the Royal Mile before the Queen's coffin travelled to St Giles' Cathedral on Monday.
The comedic video, uploaded to TikTok, shows the man propped up by two orange stilts while hanging onto a pillar half way up the Royal Mile, as tens of thousands flocked to the historic street just to catch a glimpse of history unfolding before their eyes.
Police warned that the area was 'at capacity' shortly before the procession left the Palace of Holyroodhouse, as officers refused some people entry due to overcrowding fears.
