Yesterday I watched Wildboyz on MTV. Some things they do are disgusting, but I have to say it looks a lot of fun. Sometimes I feel like I wish I was there with Wildboyz. Anyhow, they are stuntmen and they know what they are doing. I would just kill myself when trying those freaky tricks.

Dropping off big cliffs gives you a some extra adrenalin. Also jumping or skiing in weird places can be a nice experience. I must say the experience below is not nice at all. I bet that guy really did hurt himself. When I watch this footage, two things come to my head: 1. Do no try this at home, and 2. Make sure your insurance covers all you do with skis.

I hope the guy was lucky and did not hurt himself. In the next video we see how professional alpine race skiing can be very dangerous. This is something I never want to happen, ever. This makes me feel sick. What a speed and what an impact! Oh my God..

Now this one is really sick. Where’s the common sense? What on Earth this guy had in his mind? This whole attempt is doomed. And hey, he is trying to make the good old spread-eagle trick! Oh boy, I hope this young man was lucky and did not hurt himself. Oh no..

Some years ago we had a funny competition in northern Finland. The idea of the jumping competition was simple. The one who jumps farthest is the winner. I took the second place by jumping about 30 meters. Well, it was a little jump, but we had lots of fun. Take a look at the jump in the video. How long is that? 50 meters? 70 meters? 100 meters? I don’t know bu helluva far this guy flies. Oh, and do not try this at home.

Now, let’s take a look at how professional freeskiers jump? The next video shows the biggest drops made by skiers. Imagine yourself to the top of those peaks? These jumps are so big that it is actually very hard for us to understand the difficulty and risks of these jumps. Do you see how the guys land on their back and close to the rocks? I would be dead scared up there. I would ski back to valley and enjoy a cold beer. These kind fo jumps are not for me, even though I love watching great jumps.

Be careful out there, use your helmet and make sure you have a good ski insurance.
