Mystery Monday: g* ***k ******f

Remember this guy?



Apparenty Tom wasn't joking when he suggested it was a prototype for a new kind of seat:



Myself, I can't see how it would work unless there is a structural element -- the name of which I don't know -- going deep into the ground under the left-hand side, as viewed in this picture. And I trust they have tested its safety by loading up the "seat" part with at least half a tonne of weight. Because umm... yeah.

...

As usual, prizes will be awarded if you can tell me what/who this track is...

There's definitely a cross brace that runs under the seat part, down the incline and into the ground, where I assume it has the foundations necessary to support the cantilever.

It's not visible from above, which gives it that gravity-defying illusion, but you can see it by peering below.
