[00:00.00]Then the giant threw a rock far away.
[00:04.57]"How was that?" he said.
[00:07.28]"Nothing, new," said the tailor.
[00:09.91]"It still fell down to the Earth, didn't it?"
[00:13.22]Then the tailor took the bird out of his pocket
[00:15.79]and threw it in the air.
[00:17.36]The bird flew out of sight.
[00:19.57]The giant was so surprised to see this
[00:22.03]that he couldn't breathe.
[00:24.59]After a while, the giant pointed¹ to
[00:27.33]a huge tree and said.
[00:30.08]"Well,if you're so strong,
[00:32.54]help me carry this tree."
[00:35.49]"Certainly," said the tailor.
[00:37.77]"You take the trunk
[00:38.95]and I'll carry the other end,
[00:40.41]which is much heavier."
[00:42.37]The giant walked in the front
[00:44.47]so he could not see
[00:45.65]that the tailor was sitting in the branches.
[00:48.46]The tailor enjoyed the trip on the tree
[00:50.70]so much that he soon fell asleep.
[00:53.94]But after a while, the giant woke him up.
[00:57.82]"I'm tired," he shouted."
[00:59.56]"I have to put this tree down for a minute."
[01:02.57]The tailor quickly jumped down and said" I
[01:05.34]guess you're not so strong as you think."
[01:05.34]
