Wow!  That kid is really tiny!  That pic is both cute and worrisome...

Poor kid looks terrified!!!

I always figured that we were supposed to think that Mr. Twist putting Jack on the woolies when he was little was to be understood as a supportive father-son bonding thing to do.

Having seen the picture now I'm not at all sure about that - probably he just did it to "toughen that kid up, teach him how to take a fall and forget about those stupid dreams....?"

Ah well. One more illusion gone.....
