Hahaha, I'm a Catalan, and I can to tell to you that only the strongest men are on the bottom pile They are the "grallers", the musicians playing the "gralles" sounds, the typical music of the Catalan human towers: www.lafura.org/CASTELLS/gralles/toccast.mp3

Yes, anyway, any person can collaborate, they sometimes ask non members for being around and push, but it's dangerous, sometimes the castle breaks and they fall down. The last person, on the top, uses to be a male or female kid.
