ABSTRACT:
The present invention is an illuminatable jump rope device. It includes a hollow, elongated tube which is nonopaque and which is of sufficient length, strength and flexibility to be used for jumping, and two handles, one each being connected to opposite ends of the tube. In addition, two sets of battery operated illumination circuitry of the flashlight type are included, and each being located within each of said two handles. There are two on-off switches, one each being connected to each of said two sets of circuitry, and two light bulbs, one each being connected to one of two sets of circuitry and being connectively positioned with respect to each of two said handles so as to be capable of shining away from each of the two handles and into the tube. Lastly, the device includes at least two bundles of optical fibers contained within the tube, at least one such bundle being positioned in the light path of each of the two bulbs so as to be capable of fiber optic illumination within the tube.
