These men jump very high
Different people like different moves. Some people like to jump up and down. They also like to break records.
One man from the US made the highest jump in history.
He said, “I feel really good now because when I came here, I was not sure if I could do it. But then I tried it and I broke the record fast. So I feel very good.”
And then, after the man, his friend also broke the record. He made a lot of jumps in one minute.
It was a very good day for both men.
