After escaping, the theif comes to a 100m foot bridge which has a maximum weight of 100KG.
Knowing that he himself weighs 88KG, and each of the balls weighs 5KG, he quickly realizes he will not be able to cross the bridge by any normal means.
However, he works out a way to do it.
How?
Hints: He didn't roll them (it's a foot bridge, they'd roll off!).
He didn't throw them across.

Since the horse is normal, how is this situation possible?
