    Very lucky or very skillful - wonder where that is, looks like an 'interesting' track :)

    Where does he launch from? I know the guy with the camera is riding like a granny, but I can't make out where the other guy took off.

    I *think* I can see.

    at about 2seconds, where the guy goes to the left of the tree, there looks to be a little launch just off to the right of it. The other fella must have been shifting to nail that though.

    Ah, hang on. at 3-5 seconds in, the tape barrier masks a high-rise boardwalk section. Looks like he came off that.

    Ah yes, I see now. The bit I thought was the ramp was actually the start of that boardwalk section.

    Was there supposed to be a link there?

    More worrysome than the guy on the ground, I wonder what the guy in the air thought when he saw him.
