Pogo sticks

Today on my way home from a bike ride, I saw a group of kids surrounding another guy bouncing bouncing bouncing up over the group's heads. The kid was on a pogo stick! I haven't seen a pogo stick in ages! Since my circus days of unicycles and juggling machetes. Whatever happened to the pogo stick? Why has it seemingly fallen off the face of the earth? Or is it still there and I've just moved on?

Whatever. Seeing that kid on the pogo stick made me want to get one. A really good one. And then break the world record for highest pogo jump. I'm not sure what the record is for highest jump, but just a general scan of google gave this result. The guy with the longest pogo jumping record also holds the most world records...SACK RACING is one of them. SACK RACING. Underwater jump roping. How hard can that be? Although, after my near death drowning experience this weekend I'm not sure I'd be too eager to jump rope underwater.

Anyway, if anybody has any fun pogo stick stories please share. Oh yeah, I haven't died from delayed drowning...yet. I wonder what the world record is for the "delay"?
