"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. Here's a really fun stilt. It's called a jumping stilt. These are power risers from Germany and these are power skips. I got that backwards. Power risers are from Taiwan and power skips are from Germany. These use straps on all in the same measure against the shin like that. You can jump up and down and run. People do flips, double, flips with twists on these. It's running and jumping like you've never done before. You don't actually need to learn how to walk on circus stilts. You can buy these and go directly to these. You'll find them online under jumping stilts. Maybe you can give them a try. You must buy the appropriate one for your weight. You send in exactly how much you weigh, and they'll send you a stilt that's appropriate to your weight and size. You don't want this spring back here to break while you're jumping on them. You're jumping on a very small back just like a circus stilt."
