Mountain bike off 50 foot cliff.
My sister just e-mailed me her weekly status report and she heard on the
news about a guy riding a mountain bike off a 50 foot cliff **on purpose**!! Has anybody heard of this? I would think it is in the USA since she lives in Arizona and somebody doing it in another country probably would not make the American news. She said he and the bike landed separately. Maybe he just invented a creative method of suicide.??? That beats the hell out of me pegging a 160 MPH motorcycle speedometer and going for still more. I could have fallen and set a world record for road rash but hitting the ground straight down, not even me. Anybody? I think this guy is a candidate for worlds biggest idiot if he lived. Bill Baka |

(Well as concious as any that dumb is likely to be) John Kane, Kingston ON Canada When you see the ramp, and how he actually landed somewhat near where he was suposed to, it makes me think they actually thought about that jump for more than 5 minutes first. The landing is nice and steep with no obstacles, but the concrete barricade at the road side was quite close. This kid is, in my opinion, MUCH dumber: (he appears to not be too severly injured, but still the squeamish ought not look) http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...53387350545613 If watching idiots hurt themselves is too much to bear, here is a good compilation of downhill tumbles where nobody gets hurt: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...27862679379286 Joseph |
