Hey You What If?

Series 2 Episode 22: You Had Kangaroo Legs

Running a marathon is hard.At least it is for a human.But what if we could swap our legs with an animal - would that make it any easier? First, we try on a pair of kangaroo legs. Rather than jump from one leg to the other, kangaroos keep their legs together and store the energy from each bounce in special ligaments that act like springs. They recycle the energy so that the kangaroo can travel long distances with very little effort.
