| Description: | The World's youngest wire-walking wizard. Various shots of Harold Barnes, 12-year-old tightrope walker, bouncing about on a rope over a Venetian style lake. He does some somersaults and comes down on the rope, bouncing up again on his bottom. He then picks up a handkerchief from the wire, while balancing in a sitting position, and skips with a rope on the line. As a finish, he slides backwards down the steep incline of the wire in a standing position. | |
