Get Sporty

Episode 10: Long Jump

First broadcast: on CBeebiesLatest broadcast: on CBeebies HD

Super scientist Nina and her young Experimenters travel the UK in search of sporting wonders. With the help of Nina's five animated sense Neurons, they explain why sports people are so amazing and how we can all get out and get sporty.

Nina investigates how we can jump further - with the help of her touch neuron Felix.

Experimenters Amna, Katie and Rachael visit Nina in her lab and discover that for a really big jump you need to jump up and forwards at the same time. Next, they go to an athletics stadium to meet a long jumper and see why he can jump really, really far. Finally, they have a go themselves and find out how running for just the right amount of time can help you jump further. Show less
