My thoughts exactly, and you'd probably get your pockets dipped on the way down.0

I'd lose focus cause of the narrowness and boxed in-ness and be arśe over tit within the first minute. ....sprawled out like a drunken drunkard on drugs. :?0

It does look mint though. Seem some other footage of it before (I think it was this one anyway) and the course actually goes THROUGH someones house at one point. How mentail would that be.0

Health and Safety brigade would stop it in a heartbeat.
Great to watch. Makes you want to go and give it a go knowing your ride home will be in an ambulance.0 -

If you mean the actual event, didn't it take place in Edinburgh a couple of years ago? And then somewhere like Scarborough/Skegness last year?It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

I can't imagine it over here on such a tight course, instead it would be wider with lots of padded obstacles which takes out some of the thrills from the event.
No idea if they've run it over here but if they did was like the Brazil and Mexico setup or a lot safer?0 -
Just found the Fatface Edinburgh 2007 and Scarborough 2008 and neither are in the same league as the Redbull Brazil or Mexico.0
