[Hopefully you're keeping your eyes peeled around the ring as the different acts perform, because if you watch you might see someone slip onto and off the ring at different intervals so suddenly that it feels like he was always there since the show began. Then again, this character is so tall that upon just a glance you might figure that he's perched on stilts.

Jimmy's taken up the role of one of the side acts, and while he might not be the most coordinated at times, you'd be flat out wrong to think that there aren't things that this boy can bring to the table. ...And why not try your hand at everything you know how to do? May as well put those noodly arms and legs to good use. He looks to be wearing a remarkably casual outfit for the circus of all places....but if you're really sharp, you'll notice that the color of the stripes on his shirt changes with each time he reappears onto the ring.

His first appearance is punctuated by him sprinting out with a large Houndoom loping along beside him, carrying a large juggling pin in his mouth while Jimmy carries several more in his arms. The pair deposit the pins in a pile on the ground next to a striped stand that the Houndoom climbs up onto. Then he moves back to sit up on his haunches, balancing there while Jimmy picks up two of the pins. Before long he starts juggling them, keeping his eyes locked on the Houndoom as he sits patiently. After a while he bends down and grabs one of the spare pins in his jaws, hurling it with a snap of his head for Jimmy to catch and continue juggling.

Once all the pins have made it into motion, Jimmy will occasionally toss one of the pins back at the still balancing Houndoom, who quickly jumps up to catch them before they hit the ground.

The second time Jimmy appears he's followed by a Furret, this time without any props to be seen. They run side-by-side together, Jimmy waving to the crowd as he makes his way around the far edge of the ring again.

Without warning, the Furret veers a sharp right and cuts right in front of Jimmy, tripping him up with the length of her body. Jimmy starts to go down hard, falling headfirst toward the ground....until at the last second he turns so he hits with his shoulder, rolls, and pops back up onto his feet like a coiled spring. The Furret seems to make a face as she circles back around as Jimmy continues to run, trying the same trick again- only this time Jimmy leaps clear over her, hitting the ground hard enough to kick up dirt before using the rest of his momentum to spring onto his hands. Now standing on his hands with his legs in the air, the Furret scurries around Jimmy a third time, suddenly jumping at him and running up his back like a human ladder, up and up until she's managed to perch herself atop the bottoms of his sneakers.

Now Jimmy and Cherry stand tall, nearly 11 feet combined. If Jimmy doesn't have a good portion of the crowd laughing at him by the end of his antics, then his job wasn't done.]
