A Sea Of Red

Did anyone watch this on ESPN tonight? The guy rode a ramp up and jumped onto a 96 foot high building, then jumped 10 stories down with it and landed on a ramp.

yeah i saw that it was pretty sweet!

there was also a dude who tried to do a backflip in a truck!

i say tried cause he didnt really land it perfectly...

Best part was the lack of bleepage. Heard at least 2 f bombs after he landed the jump, and espn failed to bleep them out because it was live. Robbie's friend saying "you're the effin man." Then after the landing when the trainer was looking at his hand that was gashed open and bleeding profusely; he was like, "get off, get away." You could tell he was annoyed by this stupid lesbian looking trainer that wouldn't leave him alone. Then right before he turned to talked to Jamie Little, he says Eff, then realizes he's in front of the mic. Ha, my parents were dying laughing.




p.s. why the heck was i watching this at home with my parents? i don't know. worst new years eve ever

I was in the basement of my parents' house watching it by myself.

I think I win on the suckage.

that was so freaking awesome, have to say I musta fallen asleep or deaf on the whole f bomb part.

That was just DUMB...amazing...but DUMB!
(but I don't like heights).

The guy had a pretty cool gash on his hand afterwards, too.

what was even more amazing than that was the sun bowl score.... Org state and pitt. ONLY SCORED 3 POINTS ALL GAME

I would rather watch a snail race, no make that MLB game then these fools

What was even sadder was Robbie Knievel doing a lame jump by comparison at the same time on Fox. Somebody show some creativity next year.

Who was it who jumped? Was it Travis Perstrata (sp?)


I watched a two hour movie they did on him on ESPN that was sweet

Pastrana would NEVER attempt what that guy last night did.

How could you say that? Travis jumped into the Grand Canyon like 10 times and hops off the bike and pulls a parachute....Travis is known for doing anything...in fact sponsors say he's to risky and that's his downfall


but it makes sense its not him since he's now in rally car.

Pastrana's just a different style than that guy last night. He would attempt the backflip in a truck in a heartbeat but I don't see him doing that jump last night. I've been wrong before though.

I thought both guys were nuts frankly...I think that we'd be talking about Rhys Millen too if he landed that backflip and drove away.

It's called Christmas Break at home. It sucks. I haven't been home this long in over two years.

I had probably the greatest New Year's Eve of my life in Knoxville.

HAHA...all y'all suck

Even though I probably felt the same way at the time........I'm sure hoping my kids dont think that when they are in school. Memo to self, be likeable to your college age kids.

I love my parents and all of that. It's just that I don't have any friends within an hour of here so there generally isn't much to do.

this jump was amazing because basically he dropped in on a half pipe like ramp from 100 feet. I mean, I think the first part was not that impressive, but then second part is ridiculously risky and one of the coolest stunts I have seen in quite a while.

For those who didn't see it the first time, here's the jump (in 720p!):
