action
Shortly after their two children Albin and Stig are born, the two mothers compete to see who is the best of the two children. The mothers want their child to be able to speak, walk, etc. as soon as possible. The competition between the mothers is so great that it eventually spreads to the two children. Encouraged by their classmates, they let themselves be carried away to ever more tests of courage. They jump from bridges, eat earthworms, etc. So it finally happens that both boys want to jump down from the cowshed. Both boys are actually afraid of jumping, but neither of them wants to give in. So it happens that both jump down at the same time. Both remain motionless on the ground. The classmates alert the doctor and the two come to in the hospital. The mothers are already waiting there, wondering how all this could have happened. Albin and Stig, who are in the same room, look at each other and laugh. They both think it was pretty stupid to do things like eat worms or jump off the cowshed.
