that would be NEVER :!:
when I worked in the Adirondacks many years ago I shot over to Placid for the day and went to the top of the nordic jump. My knees are still shaking from being way up there... :shock:

Thought process put into this:

"I am ready to die, but if I land its gonna be sick!!!"

Thought process during:

".........."

Thought process afterwards:

"Did that really just happen? (Pinch self) Yup, must just be the adrenaline and endorphins making me fly"

I would think that a ski jumper that also is an avid free rider would be the likley person to do this. Since his fear of the jump is already addressed. I'll bet that this guy in the video also ski jumps.

I try it the other way though.

Well if any thing I've seen is worthing of being in this forum, "Crazy Bikes & Riders", this sure the hell is!!!

I think Dan's right thou, a ski jumper is a likely canidate for this kind of insanity, however, a motor cross Xtreme jumper would also be a likely canidate and I wouldn't put it past some of those Xtreme free riders either.

Basically anyone brain damaged enough to not think about the consequences. Which goes directly to my next point, Ken this guy ain't thinking, if he was, he wouldn't do it.

That landing looked a little dicy too me, another couple degrees of rotation and I think it would have turned out differently.

Good find Brian, keep em coming.
