That looks pretty cool!

Yeah looks fun. Good on him for having a shot.

Blimey! Fair play to the guy.

Part way down I wonder if he wished that he was sponsored by Andrex?

cos he was trying to wack off?

Saw it on the TV in the run up to the Olympics. That's the face of adrenalin if ever there was one.

The "arctic man" race he did with his BBC skiing compadre Bell looked pretty cool. 90 Mph behind a skidoo – mad.

^^ watch it from 33:50

cos he was trying to wack off?

Heh,no…!!

More likely that 'the turtle was getting curious'…. 😆

Brilliant,

I had a 4 man bob run when i went to Sauze D Olux 2 years ago, on the Track they built for the olympics and it was Fantastic… But that must be 10 times the buzz…. he did sound a bit worried at one point 😆

he did sound a bit worried at one point

Bah, it's perfectly safe.. oh yeah 😕 ..

So basically he just laid down and prayed?

I sooooo want to do that!!!!!!!

nnnnnnrrrrrrggghhhhhhhh…arrrghhhhhh……riiiight…leeft……

Fair play tho.

Fantastic – funniest thing I've seen in ages 🙂

I wanna go now!

yeah… not entirely sure that I believe that.. Surely there's a bit more to it than just lying down and praying? Otherwise how is it a sport?

fake surely

he must have done that before the bloke died in the luge… although it wasn't on the olympic sliding track.

will this be in BBB 2010?

would love a go at that. can hear him struggling to speak when the g-force kicks in!

Just remind me that is classed as a sport the same as DARTS !!!!!!!!!

Do you think he enjoyed it? 😀

pjt201 – that film is from 1 or 2 years ago – filmed for ski sunday/high altitude.

Looks awsome – but maybe I would have tried something where someone else was steering first! Mad.
