Jack Be Nimble: The Legend of the Candlestick Jumper

Jack Be Nimble: The Legend of the Candlestick Jumper



Jack, the famous candlestick jumper, is a hero as told in song and poem. Who was he? What motivated him? Little is known, but one man was there. This is his story.

Storyteller Anthony Trendl retells this famous tale (with the not-so-famous parts added in)

Jack, be nimble,
Jack, be quick,
Jack, jump over
The candlestick.

Jack jumped high
Jack jumped low
Jack jumped over
and burned his toe.
