Thank you Sir for sharing that video. Every time I watch one I get an adrenalin rush, or maybe I am having a heart attack. Not sure LOL.

Nice video. Too bad it was shot by someone with an iphone who doesn't know how to shoot horizontal video. Smack them upside the head and tell them to do it right the next time. Humans do not see vertically.

330 4.536
1/8 6.983 MPH 101.74
1000 9.061

Dear Santa,

I have worked very hard and been good all year, the only thing I want for Christmas is a Hero Gopro Camera.

Thanks,
