Abstract
A suspension system for a person under a ceiling is disclosed, consisting of a false ceiling composed of a plurality of spaced-apart tiles each of a regular geometric shape. Slots are thus defined between the tiles. The latter is also downwardly spaced from the regular roof or ceiling and is rigidly secured thereto, thereby defining a space between the tiles and the roof. At least one pair of stilts is used in combination with the ceiling. Each stilt is adapted to move in the slots and is provided with a suspension flange at its upper end and a foot support at its lower end, thereby enabling a user to "walk" under the ceiling.
