Hail the Heroes! Fights for the fearless and games for the brave!

Wow, the guy wasn't even on a recumbent!!!!

And all he had was a helmet! I didn't see any other protective wear.

I actually flinched at the crash...wow! Even worse than that other one
with some Euro downhill racing where a guy lost his bike momentarily
but then landed right on his saddle -- and nuts!

Check this out: Mountain Bikers, I think this clip show 2, trying do
brake a Speed Record on a Volcano in Japan. They achieve up to 110 mph,
according to this video, but the Bike it seems, can not handle the 110
mph and breaks. Pretty hard core. I tried to find any information on
the www about this stunt but was not able to.

That's insane. 50 MPH downhill on pavement is my record and I am
positively not looking to break that on the side of a mountain.
I think that was a Japanese video but the guy who crashed looked like a
American, a dumb one, but at least he was able to stand after that crash.
If he got back on the bike I would nominate him for a 'Darwin' award.

Anybody remember the guy who tried to ski down Mt. Everest with a drag
chute behind him? Japanese. It is a thing with them more than us.
