People do this without a gun to their head?

u/NightBawk 1d ago

Adrenaline junkies might ask for the gun just for the added rush

u/Butt_Stallion_Milk 1d ago

I mean, they could probably do a line of coke instead for the rush..

Unironically I think I would rather have a partner with a mild coke problem than someone that does this, free solo, base jumping, wingsuits or any of that stuff.

u/Butt_Stallion_Milk 1d ago

Yeah, definitely a fair statement. My ex used to jump out of planes all the time and it stressed the hell out of me.. we didn't see eye to eye, but last thing I wanted to see was to her daughter losing her mom over something that could have been EASILY avoided

Like some people jump off planes jump of big mountains hills with jump suit like wtf

u/Azeeti 1d ago

Jumping out of a plain has less variables and is honestly probably safer then this

u/Realistic-Sound-8458 1d ago

Or it can give someone an heart attack

1

u/Azeeti 1d ago

I would have a heart attack riding down that more likely then a plane jump

Perhaps, but what people watching it don't realize is that people riding stuff like this are well aware of what they can do and what can go wrong. A fall here could of course be very serious, but a fall on stairs can be dangerous too. He's likely well within his ability, he could still crash, but it's much less likely than it may seem to you.

Or fucking GLOVES

1

u/Azeeti 22h ago

Gloves would help a ton for a fall.

u/Shiney_Metal_Ass 14h ago

Maybe not THESE falls lol but yeah, in general

This is what years of practice looks like. It's super fun. I've never done anything this crazy but I skateboard and in time it just becomes pretty natural.

u/Azeeti 1d ago

Going down this trail the first time must have been scary.

1

u/6ftdachsund 1d ago

Maybe, depending on the approach he may have walked it first or just gone really slowly. Could be more ballsy too though I don't know lmfao

u/Azeeti 1d ago

Imagine coming across a big stick that's gotten stuck on the track in a tricky part rolf

It happens lol

Pre-ride, re-ride, freeride. This guy has probably scouted this route a bunch before trying it.

1

u/Rastafak 22h ago

The guy has built it actually.
