How to Add Multiple Levels to Your Stilts

Video Transcript

"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. Remember where we started off? The hand held stilts. I still like my hand held stilts. These I showed as a ladder where you can climb higher and higher. I've seen these even with another one this high and another one this high so you can keep climbing and getting higher. Of course, as you climb, it's no longer a simple trick. It becomes now quite difficult. Even as professional, it's a bit of a challenge for me. I'm not on the lowest level. I'm going to balance one stilt, turn the stilt, and climb to a higher level. Let me tell you, if you can do this, you're ready for the big time. I must be lucky today. Now I'm on this level. Imagine if I had another step and another step and kept climbing. There's one very important thing with the hand held stilts. You lift your foot with hands. Lift, lift, lift. The foot should never lose contact with the stilt. If it does, you become in a very dangerous situation. The most important thing is don't let go to the hand sticks because you'll fall in a hurry."
