WOW! I can't believe how fast he's going and how tight he can make those turns. I especially liked it when he PASSED a motorcycle! His wheels must be cranking out some serious heat, I don't know what they could be made out of to take that kind of stress.

This dude has lost his mind!!! lol
Biggest question I had was.. were are the brakes? Or are you S.O.L if you can't pass on that mountain road?
Did like the music in the first vid though.
So how long before this is an Olympic event?

Never ask what kind of computer a person uses--if it's a Mac, he'll say; if not, why embarrass him?

All I can keep thinking is, that's gonna be one or more messy autopsies for whoever has jurisdiction in that area. When he passed the motorcycles, do you think they even saw/recognized him before he got up to them? How easy that would have been to have killed those riders! And he was on the center line several times as bikes and cars approached and passed him. What an idiot. Even worse with his death wish than motorcycle riders! He probably has no insurance or meaningful employment. And his mother smells of elderberries.

Someday we'll get RedRock on a motorcycle, and then he'll repent of his safety-conscious, fun-killing ways.

I was both amazed and concerned about the roller suit. Key to it's WOW factor is the ability he has to maintain control of it at such high speeds - along with the seemingly endless choices he had to manipulate his position. But my issue, like Redrock's, it the absolute lack of visibility that others on the road would have & the potential for death to so many on the road. All I could wonder while watching both videos was how simple it would be for unsuspecting people to be injured by him as he sped through the streets, sidewalks, and other places. I would not want him zipping along the streets I drive on as I would likely crush him like a bug, especially given that the suit is black and would easily blend into the pavement. Thumbs up for the idea but thumbs down for the lack of thought put into the execution of the idea.

I prefer the zip line over the roller suit........or maybe the zip line while wearing the roller suit, Drop off, Cruise another 1 1/2 miles and end in a lake......Air Land and Water.......
A simple mind is easily amused!!!!!! ;D

I'm just going to piggy-bak on this thread. Any of you guys watch Man vs. Wild on Discovery? Check this out. tinyurl.com/2dopo6This guy always takes the worst possible routes on this show. I constantly, ask myself, "Why the hell didn't he just go around?" I knew it seemed a bit dramatic! lol
