It's all a matter of balance, really. I remember the stilt walkers from parades when the circus came to town. Some of those guys were five or six feet off the ground.

I'm afraid to fall off a regular bike. I do not bounce when I land anymore.

It's cool. We all have the right to live on the wild side. But he only needs one fall to ruin his day for good, it's a longgggggg way down. Wonder what his health insurance carrier thinks?

He's lucky. All it takes is one jerk or one pot hole. You couldn't pay me enough to get on one of those now.
