1. No. No. A thousand times, no. I didn't bring enough band-aids and bactine for that.

[Posteritatis]

20. That's more a mop-and-bucket scenario than a band-aid one. (nt)

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

2. Yeah, I wouldn't do that.

Maybe on a bicycle.

[Bennyboy]

3. Wow.

How far have they come? Incredible with a launch ramp.

[lunatica]

4. OH CRAP! I almost fell it!

The ramp in the OP picture is like the first ramp in the clip...it launches the skater into the main pipe.

6. yee haw

[Odin2005]

7. That looks dangerous!

:wow:

[applegrove]

8. Insane, just insane!!!

[flvegan]

9. No thanks.

[petronius]

10. I would do that in a heartbeat!

Except that, you know, I left my board at my parents' place... and these really aren't the right shoes for skating anyway...

11. I don't have a death wish.

[MilesColtrane]

12. May a weird holy man with a G&S stoke you eternally.

[Mopar151]

13. How do you stand on that narrow little board with balls that big? n/t

[im1013]

14. Maybe I'm just a little crazy, but...

that looks like a BLAST!

[DarkTirade]

15. That looks FUN.

Too bad I'm sane. :P

[bluesbassman]

16. I'll pass, takes too long to heal now.

But back when I was 16, indestructible, and never gonna die? Looks like a rush!

[jobycom]

17. I'd do it if I had any idea how to do it without dying or getting really hurt.

I love heights, and falling. I just like not dying a little more.

[BlueCollar]

18. pfffft

Real boarding is sidewalk boarding in San Francisco's Noe Valley...

19. The knee pads and gloves are a nice touch.

I'm all for safety but why is he bothering? I don't see how anything short of a medieval knight's armor looking suit could provide any real protection from a fall like that.
