"On behalf of Expert Village, I'd like to talk about stilt walking. My name is Paul Anderson from the ABC circus and here we are. Where do you get stilts? Well, it's hard to find stilts at toy stores, but it's quite easy to make your own. Get some 5 gallon buckets. I've drilled a couple of holes in the top right near the edge. Well, that was simple. Then I took a piece of rope. Seek it through the hole and tie a knot. Then you have your own tin can stilts. This is the best way to learn, and a lot of kids learn this way. Quite simple; pull the rope through the hole. Tie a little knot right there. Of course, you want to check to see if it's the right for your arm length. You have the bucket like that. This one I made already. Then you have some stilts like that. You're walking away. Quite easy. In no time, you'll be walking through the whole neighborhood. What do you think?"
