Damn, after it started rolling, he might have well just let it go all the way down instead of trying to catch it.

Man I'm glad you posted that. I saw that some where else and couldn't find it again to show it to my son. Its the longest crash I've ever seen for sure. Oh BTW see what getting orange stuff gets you!

That was unbelievable. That beat the snot out of that snowmobile. I agree not quite sure what the purpose was in trying to stop it.

You don't really get the sense of how steep the climb is until you get the view going down. If the dude could have stayed off that wall just at the top he would have been home free. Must have been harder to keep on line you'd think.

He is lucky his feet did not hit a rock while sliding.

I posted the link over elsewhere and poaching my response from there...

> You'd think he would have waited

Yeah...
would'a, should'a, could'a

I just love the frustration in his voice when he yells at the end. No
idea what he's yelling.

And, really... how's that crash to climb ratio?
Which, strangely, being near 3...
brings me to my latest book review

A History of Pi
Petr Beckmann
St. Martin's Press
can't find ISBN
Library of Congress 74-32539
good luck.


A little anticlimactic.
Worth reading anyway.
Interesting social commentary from 1970s that proves fairly spot on,
plus OMG moments from the "Ancients" who figured it all out so we
could just run with it.

But, back to the video...
it doesn't look that steep on the way up, does it? LOL
