I enjoyed that too. I have to admit that I thought they overplayed the jump off. I thought that the jump down would be easier. In my experience, with jumping off of steps, drop offs, dunes, ledges and such that the drop off would be a piece of cake. After watching that, I think I was wrong. Though it did appear that he was going a little fast. You basically need to just be barely moving and blip the front end out in order to do something like that. I'll admit that I've never done a 50 foot drop though. Big for me has been about 15 feet, which was plenty scary enough. That guy is very brave if nothing else. DON'T sign me up for that nonsense.
