I bet they can't even get insured. That's more dangerous than jumping out of a plane without a chute, period. You see how freakin CLOSE they were skimming the ledges??? Oh HELL no - you couldn't pay me enough.

Yeah, you would do good to show her AFTER you do it...

And no - I will NOT be doing that. Jumping a dirtbike, quad, snowmobile or jetski a few feet in the air is one thing - playing "chicken" with gravity and freakin CLIFFS is another...

In the words of my pal Sonny Crockett - "Probability is like gravity... and you CANNOT negotiate with gravity."

I agree. I so like controlling where I am going, and this seems so cool. Maybe next time bro after I get a supermotard then maybe expand to this. wow, I am digging it.

When your learning to fly an airplane they tell you that "you start out with a full bag of luck and an empty bag of experiance. The trick is to fill the bag of experiance before you empty the bag of luck." Unfortunately no matter how much experiance you have it doesn't help these guys one bit, and I can see that bag of luck emptying pretty quick.
I'd love to give it a shot, but I got too much to live for right now.
