MADISON, Neb. -- If you attended the Madison County Fair this weekend, you may have noticed the old Zultar Machine. 

If you went up to press the button, you’d be in for quite the surprise.

“It’s beyond insane,” said Robert Nash, The Living Zultar. “This is something I came up with many years ago inspired by the movie ‘Big’.”

From a distance, Zultar may seem like an animatronic figure, but what people aren’t ready for, is a real person with quick wit and over-the-top humor. 

“I wanted to create something that would shock people, and I said: ‘Why don’t I build a costume for Zulatar?'” Nash said. 

Nash eventually decided to make the costume. He quickly found success after being asked to perform for corporate events.

"I had taken everything I’ve known, everything I’ve worked on over the last, I’m not going to tell you how many decades, and brought it all together and this is what we have.”
