EAGLE MOUNTAIN — An episode of an upcoming Nickelodeon television show is being filmed in Eagle Mountain this month.
“Jagger Eaton’s Mega Life” stars 15-year-old professional skater Jagger Eaton. In the show, Eaton will travel around the country and meet up with inspirational people known as “Mega Humans.” During these meetups, the teen skater “spends a couple of days in their life, walking their walk and talking their talk until he ultimately attempts whatever great feat this person is most known for,” according to Nickelodeon and Superjacket.
The Utah-filmed episode will feature Eaton meeting Charlie Andrews, a professional stunt jouster and famed Renaissance Faire participant, according to Nickelodeon and Superjacket.
"He will practice the art of jousting with Andrews at his home training facility before he competes in the Ren Faire," Nickelodeon and Superjacket reported. "Eaton will gain some reprieve from the exhaustion of jousting by visiting local skate parks and doing what he does best."
