Holy cr*p, that's like bodyboarding without the board!
I've seen those "street luge" guys, who are nuts, but this is insane!! :o

I'd love to try that, but I'm soooooo gettin' too old for crazy stuff like this... ;)

That was funny looking video, looked like computer generated graphics.  And did he pass the guy on the motorcycle, the first one?  There was an interruption at that point, though I saw him pass the couple on the second bike.

He really needs to work on staying in his own lane; how could oncoming traffic be expecting something like him in their lane?  Or her, I guess.  

I was more tempted by the video of the people paragliding, or what ever they were doing, down the canyons.  Man I want to do that.  But I like living, too.  It's a problem.

This guy is for real.  I've seen other videos of him doing this on You Tube.  The other ones I saw were better quality.  It was a different road too.  And there weren't any cars or motorcycles on the road when he  was doing this, or at least that were in the video, until he got to the bottom.  These also showed him making his suit.

As far as staying in his lane, I don't think it would be possible to get around some of those corners.  He has to set himself up.  Maybe he's got someone blocking for him?

He is definitely crazy!    [smiley=mad.gif]
