I've never done stilt-walking myself, but I know of stilt walkers who use proportionally long walking sticks, effectively becoming tripods or quadpods. They're apparently super useful when standing still.
2:19 My great-grandpa actually died this way. Not the stilts, just tripping off the sidewalk. Dude was 90 years old in 1976, stepped off a curb obstructed by the snow (Northern Utah), and broke his hip. Died like a week later.
I mean the world is just looking to kill you and 90 is a long time to cheat death. My great grandpa died after church on his walk home on a bench because he felt tired or so the story goes. He was 97 so again not a bad run. Hopefully we can hope to live as long.
@@BoyDharma Here's hoping we can! I mean, not to be too dramatic, but I wasn't even supposed to live into my teen years. I'm 26 now. With all the stuff I've gone through, medically, in my life, I really feel like I could live forever.
I'm sorry to hear that. No joke, my grandfather passed away last year in a very similar incident. 90, decided he wanted to go for a walk without telling anyone. Tripped and fell on the sidewalk not even a block from the house. Ended up lingering in bed for a couple weeks and then went in his sleep.
I always thought Brian can walk in stilts, just imagining him in stilts breathing fire on his shows while trying to scam the viewers Jason looks like the patient that's learning how to walk again just like in the movies lol Cirkus Zirkus' are great instructors
Stilt Man! I had a friend who played Heroclix who collected a bunch of Stilt Man figures. Because the figures came in multiple pieces to fit in the package, he was able to combine the stilt pieces together to form a single super-tall Stilt Man.
The pure joy on all their faces as Brian starts walking unassisted! They look like proud parents when their kid first rides a bike without training wheels or being held on to. But like without the previous trials with training wheels, lol 🥲😃
The Cirkus Zirkus crew is awesome. The way of teaching is really good. The way the one said "I'll never let you fall" was so genuine. Hope to see them in future episodes.
I've walked on homemade peg stilts where the poles go all the way up to your shoulders for you to hold onto, which gives you complete control. They were very easy to learn, but they were only (maybe?) 1 foot higher than the ground. It was so long ago, I barely remember, but I know if I fell forward, I could just land on my feet and be fine.
My cousin had a set of these for painting, and I asked to try them. It is astonishing how intuitive using them is as long as you have even a minor sense of balance.
1:47 Silver lining; your hips might be sore, but at least they won't lie. 4:41 Do *not* fall forward with your arms extended. You will break a wrist or dislocate a shoulder. Take it from somebody who's been there. Fell off my bed when I was 8 and landed arms out, broke my wrist. Started taking martial arts lessons about a year after I healed up, quickly was taught how to properly break a fall, and only then did I realize why I had broken my wrist a year before.
Yes! I’m so glad you guys are learning stilt walking! It’s so fun! I learned to stiltwalk last summer for a parade / Mardi Gras event at a large theme park, one of the coolest things I’ve ever learned to do.
In grade school we had a circus come to our school to teach us 5th graders different performances. I was naturally adept at the stilt walking for whatever reason. It was a really neat experience
I learned this a lot of years ago. It was the one´s with one peg under it. It was very easy to learn. Took less than 5 minutes. Didn't get any talk about body position or anything like that. It was just walking, holding onto someone, like here, and then let go when you felt ready for it. I managed to jump with them. It was probably a whole inch high! The scariest is when you fall forward because you can't protect your knees as your legs are strapped to the stilts.
I used to use the long peg stilts where you tuck them up under your arms and hold them in place with your hands. Those took a very long time to get good at. These things would be sooo much better and my 10 year old self would have been super jealous haha.
as someone who built stilts out of medical boots and crutches they were amazing they were for a quadrupedal stilt costume the front legs were crouches i extended with aluminum tubing after a while i got comfortable enough to walk with just two stilts this was a mistake they broke after about half an hour of walking on them didn't help that i was putting around 150 pounds on a single crutch at some points the crutches weren't happy with that was an amazing Halloween that year.
DM: "You walk out to a clearing in the woods, and you see a gazebo" Paladin: "I attack it with a war cry in the name of my god!" DM: "It's a gazebo..." ...
I performed a musical in painter's stilts, called Big Fish. Having to do Choreography in stilts was shockingly easy and fun once i was walking in the stilts easy. Kinda wanna get stilts again and practice more!
Not so much a critique, but just something that was on my mind while watching, it would have been a cherry on top if there was some kind of padding on the ground so they could demonstrate what to do when falling.
...this is the _Modern Rogue_ there would never be an injury to begin with. Their records are spotles. It would be pointless to teach how to fall... Also considering that she only fell once before I wouldn't say it is really something that can be teached. Falling and knowing how to land is one thing. Willingly falling to show how it's done is something else.
@@jackwriter1908 well yea, I know. That’s why I started my comment the way I did. The video doesn’t “need” it, but it would have been a nice bonus if it did have it.
I immediately looked up how expensive drywall stilts are and the answer is not expensive enough. I am one plasma donation away from challenging the sun
I've done a bit of short stilt walking once (maybe only 1-2 ft up) and they were just 2x2s with a triangle wedge. (So had to hold on with hands while walking)
I was taught to walk on stilts by Universal Studios Optimus Prime in order to be a stilt walker in a haunted house for Halloween. After a week I was running at the customers to scare them, but one day as I was coming to a stop I stepped on a few leaves and lost traction and slipped and tore my ACL.
😳 I last walked on 3' stilts back in 1988 🤔 The peg style not the fancy painter ones 😁 I walked 10km over bridges an along a river. Also another time we played soccer 😁 Gawd i loved stilts ...
It's not the weather you need to worry about... it's the low flying aircraft and flocks of migrating birds! Sorry, couldn't resist the temptation. It's no fun for us down here either. 😉
I've thought about stilts for work. Im in remodeling, and even short stilts would be great for painting. Which surely enough the episode started off mentioning.
They made the joke about how much are these on Amazon and I immediately said that's a good question and they were way less than I thought I may just have to have a pair of stilts

Brain: "There really is a point when you can relax."
Everyone else: *panics to try and catch him in case he falls
That golden hour light with the Bri-monster staggering around in it like a newly birthed giraffe. Just...beautiful
Giraffe learning how to walk was my first thought as well
These Cirkus Zirkus episodes are great!
True! I was thinking the same! Those circus things we think are simple or easy, but duuuuude! They are trouble!
:)
I like the cirkuszirkus gang they're super cool
Brian feels at home around carnies.
True, but i feel bad for them. Brian and Jason aren't very respectful when they have to do physical work :(
"I feel like a redwood about to fall." Brian's name definitely should change from Brushwood to Redwood whenever he's on stilts.
Brian on the ground: Mr. Brushwood
Brian in the air: Mr. Redwood
By day, he’s Brian Brushwood.
By night, he’s Ryan Redwood.
True information about Stilt: th-cam.com/video/MBa_CiUVMss/w-d-xo.html
How did I know Brian would be good at this. Jason did so well too. These people are so good. They are lovel and funny but also great teachers.
brian's a magician, he's got carnie in his blood, of course he was gonna be good at it.
@@etopsirhc and a fire eater!

This is also how you make a Landstrider costume from The Dark Crystal
It def makes a difference. I diy'd some quad peg stilts for halloween and I had it down in 5 -10minutes. It's hella fun too 10/10 recommend
Hey! Great to see you here! Love the flag shaming :)
2:19

@@BoyDharma I wouldn't wanna live that long.
In a way, my great-grandmother was lucky, because she died on the spot when she fell on the sidewalk.
Brian is absolutely going to be on stilts in all future videos and that is totally on brand for him haha.
I always thought Brian can walk in stilts, just imagining him in stilts breathing fire on his shows while trying to scam the viewers
Jason looks like the patient that's learning how to walk again just like in the movies lol
Cirkus Zirkus' are great instructors
this two girls struck me as such gentle teachers. watching them explain everything and help brian and jason filled me with fuzzy wholesome feelings.
the whole cirkus zirkus crew are like that
The "I'll never let you fall" was so genuine. The helpful nature is instinctive for the 3 of them it seems.
If you watch their other one with the acrobatics, they're really great.
@@Sheridantank that is one of the key moments for me to then write this
@@WhisperingWinds0 ^^
It's always interesting to see Brian just get into his elements with other circus performers.
Stilt Man! I had a friend who played Heroclix who collected a bunch of Stilt Man figures. Because the figures came in multiple pieces to fit in the package, he was able to combine the stilt pieces together to form a single super-tall Stilt Man.

Alternate title: Brian considers being a circus magician.
well, hes got the fire eating part down, sooooo

It was so long ago, I barely remember, but I know if I fell forward, I could just land on my feet and be fine.
My elementary school had these types for gym class, they were awesome!
we did the same in cub scouts.
I coulda sworn it said "Secrets of still walking", which i found to be humorous.
Well, that's actually when you Walk Without Rythym so you Don't Attract The Worm
Same here, I was already on my way to think about them learning to become Ninjas... Then I saw the Thumbnail and realised something didn't add up.
I saw SITH walking, really zoned me out
@@josephcarrillo4 with darkness and red lightsabers
@@josephcarrillo4 The Dark Side of the Force is able to grant you many abilities. Just ask Brian, he is finally again taller than his children.
The frequency of the words "peg" and "straps" made me go get headphones so I didn't have to explain what I was watching.
Brian figured it out and immediately turned into a Gundam
*Next week on Body Hacking: Getting The Alaya Vijana System implanted!*
I love how at 15:35, Jason has his hands up ready to catch Bryan despite being way too far away to actually be able to catch him.
I've used painters for about 15yrs and I gotta say I wish I had the wide calf band!
I love these episodes! This troop makes it super fun
The "Brian/Jason's" attempt transition really looked like ominous foreshadowing to resetting the injury counter to me
Jose's a good spotter lol. he's always right where you need him.
My cousin had a set of these for painting, and I asked to try them. It is astonishing how intuitive using them is as long as you have even a minor sense of balance.
One small step for Jason, one big step for rogue kind.
Good job Jason, Brian def had that look of a new born giraffe before he then took off :)
This is my favourite video on TH-cam now
I hope you guys keep working with Cirkus Zirkus! Yall have such great energy together, super entertaining stuff

jose got my immediate respect for wearing an Orange amps shirt. Orange amps and cabs are the true face of brutal metal music!
I loved doing peg stilts as an elementary school student many years ago. I should make myself a set to exercise with.
Brain did really well! After watching Jason I didn’t expect him to be able to walk unassisted!
I *ABSOLUTELY* thought Brian was gonna eat shit! I'm astonished he didn't, great teachers over at Cirkus Zirkus! I'd of 100% broken my neck, lol
Good info,she's is really good,I use to make mine where you held the stick and free foot now I'm learning the sheet rock stiltz,great job ladies😊😊
In grade school we had a circus come to our school to teach us 5th graders different performances. I was naturally adept at the stilt walking for whatever reason. It was a really neat experience
I love seeing this type of content on MR, sharing how to do these weird and incredibly cool skills.
As a construction worker I borrowed one quick from a sheetrocker to try. Took one step and decided that wasn't for me lol.
I have a pair of those shorter, bendy jumping stilts and they're the best thing I've ever bought on impulse. Great job on the video!!!!!
Shudder is awesome.
I know it isn't exactly on topic but the episode speaks for itself quite well.

Ok, now I need a Corey approved design for homemade peg stilts.
Will there be fire or pointy things involved?
@@TheBigburcie stilt walking and fire breathing make for an impressive combo.
This is the first time I've fallen in love watching a Modern Rogue episode.
Can we just talk about the beautiful golden hour they got along with the gazebo, I would be taking so many pictures, especially with the stilts!
A link to those stilts would actually be a very welcome addition.
She’s really confident on her stilts, pretty chill personality too.
Taylor has such a great style. Radiant!
ya'll killed it on the stilts! nice work!
This is such a weird transition.
Watching _Catch Me If You Can_ and after that coming to this?
😂 It's weird, but also fascinating.
I used to use the long peg stilts where you tuck them up under your arms and hold them in place with your hands. Those took a very long time to get good at. These things would be sooo much better and my 10 year old self would have been super jealous haha.
A friend of mine tried to be the first one to climb Swedens highest mountain on stilts. It didn’t end well.
Did that friendship end?
There is a reason why there arent many stilt mountain climbers
@@pandoratheclay no but the stilts sure broke.
Liking the video just for the Stilt-Man reference. Good one Jason!
I love the power stance the young lady took as she plugged the various Cirkus Zirkus websites. It was James Dio-like.

It was not the one I expected who fell first. Great episode!
As a stilt walker myself I am extremely excited to watch this episode. 😂
Honestly thought one of the boys was gonna fall. Awesome work boys.
DM: "You walk out to a clearing in the woods, and you see a gazebo"
Paladin: "I attack it with a war cry in the name of my god!"
DM: "It's a gazebo..."
...
As soon as I saw Brian start to get cocky up there, I immediately pictured Jason shouting something along the lines of, "Run, Forrest! RAAHN!!1"
Time for some Amazon shopping
And I'm apparently too big, time to build some shit.
@@amadonbeanz9631 a whole history arc in this comment lol
@@ALEXGAYMAR2312 when I'm no longer iced in I'll be back with either tales of glory or a hospital trip lol
"this step is the boring one, it's just for safety". That's a modern rogue right there!
Finally your true carny self came out Brian and you took a risk. Excellent job.
Shoutout to the guy in the Orange t shirt. Great amplifiers

I've walked stilts for a year or so. The ones they are using are pretty intuitive.

Well done, Sir.
@@vao879 Glad I rose to the occasion
@@SLevinCinema you went above and beyond
Wow. Whew...I am uh, going to have to go to the circus.
I guessed no one falls, because if anyone did this episode probably wouldn't have aired at all... that or there'd be a HUGE disclaimer in the title.
I was taught to walk on stilts by Universal Studios Optimus Prime in order to be a stilt walker in a haunted house for Halloween. After a week I was running at the customers to scare them, but one day as I was coming to a stop I stepped on a few leaves and lost traction and slipped and tore my ACL.
I mean you just pay 25 septims to the closest Dunmer right...oh stilt walking...my bad.
Nwah!
😳 I last walked on 3' stilts back in 1988 🤔
The peg style not the fancy painter ones 😁
I walked 10km over bridges an along a river. Also another time we played soccer 😁
Gawd i loved stilts ...
Jason: I can do this!
Brian: BEHOLD YOUR GOD!!!!
😂
i used to wear these a lot at festivals. worst injury i saw was a torn groin after a lady fell into the splits.
This episode gives short people a look into my world. I'm 6'8 and people exclusively ask me how the weather is.
It's not the weather you need to worry about... it's the low flying aircraft and flocks of migrating birds! Sorry, couldn't resist the temptation. It's no fun for us down here either. 😉
I've thought about stilts for work. Im in remodeling, and even short stilts would be great for painting.

Next up, Brian's fire eating routine on stilts!
They made the joke about how much are these on Amazon and I immediately said that's a good question and they were way less than I thought I may just have to have a pair of stilts
Does anyone else think Brian and Jason resemble the AT-STs, near the end of Return of the Jedi, as they were about to tip over?
Oh wow, these look like so much fun!
Dude i used to love playing on my dads drywall stilts when i was a kid.
love when those guys show up.

19:58 "and we're not gonna spell rogue. you should know by now"

Now I want to see Bran breath fire while in costume on stilts!!
3:30 I like to go as high as I can cause what’s the point if you don’t right
I absolutely agree and that’s why I’ve got a massive scar on my knee lol

I've worn both kinds, and I think pegs are way easier. Little more exhausing, sure, but much easier to walk confidently.
