I'M glad Lawrence mentioned, Jack;
"Jumping over the
MARIMBA "...... I
REMEMBER THAT !!! IT WAS
SHOCKING, & IMPRESSIVE !!!
I WAS HOPING HE WOULD DO IT AGAIN !!!!! WHAT A HUGE TALENT.....
EVERY TIME SINCE THEN , WHEN I SEE THE MARIMBA, I REMEMBER THAT MOMENT., & KNEW
*** NO ONE ***
EXCEPT JACK COULD EVER DUPLICATE THAT
MOMENT !!!!
** SPECTACULAR ** !!!! ❤❤❤

then )

:32 This bubble here shows a scene from this show the 25th Anniversary Show, but it wasn't shown in this broadcast (it happened in the beginning before the Anniversary Song was done). This broadcast is from spring 1992 (from the 1991-1992 PBS package).
