  • skater to jump great wall of china





    It's good to see the U.S. and china come together for these important events. U.S. skater, chinese landmark.

    might be interesting. It's supposed to be on ESPN they say. But I didn't see what time. And china is real far ahead of us in time zones.

    I like the mention of the bicyclist who tried to jump it and died. I wonder how that happened.

    oh I see, he has a countdown on his personal site. 18 hours.

      okay I admit, I'm interested only because of the possibility he might die. The guy has already broke his neck.

      Surely there's a line between bravery and stupidity. Isn't there?

        It's like David Copperfield... on SKATES!

            I knew it was Danny when I saw the thread title.. he's just one crazy dude.. I think he has the highest jump and the longest jump on record even before this.. he tried it back to back too, it was nuts!

            Yeah.. this is dangerous... I walk through mindfields and watch your head rock! This is dangerous. Open up your head, feel the shell shock!

                check out the pics.. that's one crazy attempt.. it can end up badly.. I hope it doesn't though.

                Too bad I'm at work when this happens. But I'll check it when I come back.

                  ahh, yeah I was wondering about this (just too lazy to search for it), as it is mentioned in the article as a failed attempt.

                        This is very disturbing. I was about to post exactly the same thing.
