On ELVIS IN VEGAS 1969 after TIGER MAN Elvis talks something about a big ol tank and in a minute I'll dive right in the middle....Does anybody know what he is talking about? I have always wondered.

He then says " that's my closing bit" just before WORDS. Anybody got a clue?

He says, "I'm gonna do a trick, watch me get untangled here boy".
"Yes and I'm gonna dive right in the middle."
"That's my closing bit and I'll take a leap right in the middle'.

I get it!

Stage-diving.

Elvis envisioned himself diving off the stage into the crowd - he created stagediving even if he never actually did it but just joked about it.

Cool. Another credit to The King.

I think Sam is right, I always thought he said tank, like a tank of water. But I listed to it again and it does sound like tangle. Thanks!
