And my sister, who I mean, she's 0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:07.120 an incredible creature and performer, and she couldn't do a 0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:09.840 trapeze job and asked if I would stand in for 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:11.760 her because she could trust me with the job that 0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:14.080 I wouldn't like, you know, steal that. 0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:15.440 Right, you know. 0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:19.240 So also I feel like just having someone trustworthy when 0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:22.200 you're doing a trapeze is usually a good idea. Someone 0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:25.200 that you trust when you're flying and flinging yourself for you. 0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:27.520 But you're not gonna like, ye yeah, you don't. 0:05:27.320 --> 0:05:29.160 Want some Joe Shmo off the street.
