Apologies if it’s old and been done before (I live in New Zealand and the internet is really slow over here’

Idiot or Daredevil

Risk – none he was wearing a harness with a safety line onto the rope
Reward – See the Red Bull lid

Presumably you only ride on manicured traffic free tarmac? The rewards of riding something that is technically and mentally taxing are huge personal satisfaction. If someone is willing to pay you to do it then even better. the true risks are probably no worse than walking a slack rope, or a tricky rock climb but it makes much better video and the perceived risk and skill is much greater.

That was good ,team cleaned up loose stuff from the edges and all the safety lines were in place .Good fun ,why ? because he can !!

Fair play

I can’t even manage the black skinny at Glentress!

He probably got well paid to do it, or it’s worthwhile in terms of self promotion.
