A tube man, also known as a skydancer, air dancer, inflatable man and originally called the tall boy, is an inflatable fabric stick figure that gains a dynamic dancing or flailing motion and human-like shape when air is blown through its tubing by a fan. Since the creation of tube men for the 1996 Olympic Games, they have been used to advertise retail businesses to passing motorists.
