And now for something different – somewhere between brave and mad

And now for something different – somewhere between brave and mad

We had the “Amazing Cyclist (from Scotland)” http://forum.keypublishing.com/showpost.php?p=1835740&postcount=1

And now –

http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/blogs/world-of-sport/life-amazing-rollerman-120008889.html

“German thrill-seeker Danny Strasser – dubbed ‘Rollerman’ – has compiled a collection of some extraordinary stunts around the world as the end of 2011 approaches.

Strasser, a keen snowboarder, took to his home-made set of wheels and filmed some daring action across the world.

Speeding down the sharp descents of the Alps, weaving through the traffic in South Korea, and even putting his blades through the rigours of a bobsleigh track in Germany, Strasser’s antics lie somewhere between brave and mad.”

I am adding the warning to youngsters ” Don’t try it”

It’s all real, cyclist and Blondy. Discussed many a time on many a forum.

But that isn’t the issue, the issue is that Yahoo need to crank up the news team a bit.
I already said it looked like a good punt for Scotland…made with a tourist grant or a University grant of some sort.
If you like this sort of gear, check out the Winged suits flying. Don’t try it with inferior Gannex Macs!

The same could be said about the “Amazing Cyclist – Scotland”

H Pee Dee

The same could be said about the “Amazing Cyclist – Scotland”.

Was all of it real?

Why was there no warning to kids to avoid trying it on their very technically inferior bikes?

It gave some good pics of Scotland – possible tourist promo.

This German guy doing the blades may be as you say – and it may not be all real.

IMO such things are simply MAD and not for kids to try.

This is ancient stuff man. Yahoo are desperate for news seeing as nothing has happened this week.
And, this fella Strasser is just an imposter or just the producer of the movies. The main man is Blondeau (sp)….he’s the one to check out on Youtoob.
