The smallest ones you can get are 4 metre practice wires, they are about 2 grand (Australian dollars) and they look really shmick. They are also portable(ish) so they can be used in performance.
*Eveish drifts off lusting after the yummy ones in juggleart*
Anyway, I have a slightly less shmick looking home made version of a similar thing, this cost about $500 for the materials alone... the thing with this is that you can usually only get 5mm wire for it (most professional wires are 11-12mm!!) so I recommend looking into getting a properly sprung rig with nice cumfy thick wire!!! (5mm really hurts feet and hands when not properly gloved/shoed) but in short, yes you can get small "indoor" rigs, they stand anything from 70cm off the ground, and they are fun 
Actually, I would quite like to see if we can find a few others who play on ropes too, I might start a thread just on tightropes and leave this one for people to talk about their own crazy moves! (I have too much to say about wire walking) I will chat to you more about them in Technical discussion!

How about slack rope? Unicycling and juggling are much easier on a slack rope.. So spinning staff or poi could be also..........? And I think it would still go under crazy, crazy insane.

Does double staff on a pogo stick count for anything? (whilst smoking a doob if that adds any kudos)
