[00:00.82]Once upon a time,
[00:04.56]the two greatest circus performers in the world.
[00:07.95]An escapologist,who could escape from any lock that was ever invented,
[00:13.56]and an acrobat,who was so skilled it seemed as if she could actually fly.
[00:20.21]Fell in love and got married.
[00:23.38]They performed some of the most incredible stunts together that anyone had ever seen.
[00:29.67]And people would come for miles around,kings,queens,celebrities and astronauts.
[00:39.24]And not just to see their skills but also to see their love for each other,
[00:44.06]which was so deep that it was said that cats would purr as they passed them,
[00:49.22]and dogs would weep with joy.
[00:53.40]They moved into a beautiful old house on the edge of town
[00:58.16]and in the evenings they would walk and take the air.
[01:01.34]And each night the children of the town would wait in anticipation,
[01:06.20]hoping for a glimpse of the shining white scarf that the acrobat always wore.
[01:12.44]For then they knew they had only to cry“Tricks tricks!”
[01:17.42]And the great performers would instantly oblige with the most spectacular show just for them.
[01:24.14]But although they loved each other,
[01:27.79]Although they were famous and everyone loves them,
[01:31.13]They were sad.
[01:32.88](We have everything...)
[01:35.95]“We have everything the would has to offer”says the wife
[01:39.13](We have everything...)
[01:41.87]“but we do not have the one thing in the would we want most”
[01:46.59](but the one thing...)
[01:49.65]“we do not have child”
[01:51.52](Patience my love...)
[01:53.60]“Patience my love.”the husband replied,
[01:56.41]“time is on our side,even times loves us.”
[01:59.56]Aw Matilda...
[02:01.05]But time is the one thing no-one is master of.
[02:05.04]And as time passed they grew quite old and still they have no child.
[02:11.67]At night they listened to the silence of their big empty house
[02:16.06]and they would imagine how beautiful it could be
[02:18.91]if it is filled with a sounds of a child playing.
[02:22.20]Matilda,this is very sad.
[02:23.90]Do you want me to stop?
[02:24.80]Don’t you dare!
[02:26.46]Their sadness overwhelmed them and drew them on to ever more dangerous feats.
[02:31.37]As they work became the only place they could escape the inescapable tragedy of their lives!
[02:41.13]And so it was they decided to perform the most dangerous feat ever known to man!
[02:47.63]“It is called...”
[02:49.82]said the husband,announcing the event to the world’s press,
[02:52.85]who had gathered to listen with bated breath.
[02:56.54]“The Burning Woman Hurling Through the Air,
[03:01.25]with Dynamite in Her Hair,
[03:04.38]over Sharp and Spiky Objects,
[03:07.42]Caught by the Man Locked in a Cage,
[03:10.19]and it is the most dangerous feat,ever known to man!”
[03:27.15]“It is our destiny”said the wife ,smiling sadly and slipping her hand into his.
[03:34.30]“it is where the loneliness of life has led us.”
