First thing that I thought as well...

Very impressive nonetheless, especially the various tree stunts!

Is it the same guy as the 'too cool for a helmet' vid, maybe one year later...

I guess wearing a helmet is a personal choice - is it for us to criticise? I suspect he's fully aware of the risks involved, you can't get that good without a lot of crashing along the way  :shrug:

That first jump is quite simply the best thing I have seen today. I mean it.

Totally agree. I personally have never worn a helmet for my minimal trad climbing, but that is a personal, route at a time choice. I'm sure the lid-less biker is the master of his own destiny. Big up the brave bugger. Kids today and all that.

Holy moly... i cant believe he makes it down the first bit never mind then trying to jump off the damn mountain, awesome!

as for the bmxer, i have seen nothing that gets close. simply the best i ever seen, everyone should see it. coz the twat will be dead shortly due to not wearing a helmet.

How the hell do those guys bounce so easily when they fall off? Why doesn't it seem to hurt them as much as I know it would hurt me? :bow:

Once the camera stops rolling they're probably rolling around on the floor puking :)
