Bikers Dash Across Mexico City in Illegal Alleycat Races

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fA4qqB8j8Gc


This is nuts! I know that there are rouge bikers that do this for "fun" or what have you, but I never knew that there was an "Organized Race" like this. I don't approve of this one bit. If they want to injury and harm themselves, have at it....but as soon as you are putting random people at risk, that's where I draw the line. If I saw this happening in front of me, I absolutely would confront them and it wouldn't be pretty.

Flaring Up - Surfing with a Flare

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2HoZ4cU1r4&list=PLp2e7UfInEgmB-5r4rtQOEsq-H-mNmQhk&index=44

Looks sick during nighttime and would be move incentive to surf in complete "darkness".

Robbie Maddison's Pipe Dream

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDi9uFcD7XI

In the words of beach culture, this is gnarly! F*ck, this is AWESOME!!!! And yes, what you see in the above image/video is exactly what is happening: Riding a Motorcycle on water and catching waves. Robbie FTW! Curious to know what happens to the bike when there is a wipe-out or if its rigged with some flotation device to keep the bike from sinking to the bottom of the ocean. It's a bike....it weighs a ton.

It sounds made up when you talk about it, but dayum, if that isn't one of the coolest things to watch.

Well, how do you think Jerry Lee Lewis wrote the song? Years ago he had a premonition about this.

Fastest Speed on Skateboard Record Broken by Kyle Wester

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRcZhVFF79Q

This is insanely scary. Clocking in just under 90 miles per hour. Can you imagine the destruction he would incur if for one tiny little pebble were to be in the wrong place at the wrong time? Sheesh!

Skaters vs Extreme Downhill Skateboarding! (Wins & Fails)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQywaP-QPqo


These guys are literally crazy motherf*ckers. This video makes the hair on my neck stand up and my stomach rumble. I honestly don't see any upside to doing this other than getting a sh*t load of views on their vids in the hopes of making some money. But I can tell you this, the amount they are getting isn't worth it.
