Two weeks ago, hubby and I walked home and as we passed by a park called Letna, we saw people flying though the air! OK, flying might be a bit of an exaggeration, but we did see people jumping high, turning over in the air, landing and jumping again. I was immediately reminded of the old German fairy tale of the magic 'Sieben Meilenstiefel', something what could be loosely translated to 'Seven Miles Boots'. These are described by the famous brother Grimm of German fairy tale fame as follows:
'A pair of boots with magical abilities that allow the wearer of said boots to jump fast over great distances, covering seven miles in an instant.'

I want some of these...!
They look great fun.
Exactly my own feelings / fears, Dustytoes ;-)
Wow these look like fun! I bet I'd hurt myself really bad though.
Thanks a bunch Brenda, yes these power stilts sound a bit like 'broken legs' to me also ;-) SY
I wish I had the nerve to try that. Maybe it's a good that I don't. lol Linking to treadmill article.
Yes they are ;-) SY
