Make sure you watch the whole thing...How he gets down from the top of the arch is more amazing then how he gets up!

He either has balls of steel or just no fear of death...probobly a mixture of both!

When ya live in a country with 7 of the 10 deadliest snakes in the world, most of the deadliest spiders, box jellyfish, stonefish, great white sharks and varios other beasties, jumpng a motorcycle isn't such a big deal

Well now that turns me away from visiting Australia someday...

Quite the jump there, he nailed it.

Yea..but do you intentionally pick those things up and play with them..lol He's intentionally sticking his hand in the cage with the snake. To me theres a difference.

Yeah, but can he prove he did it without crapping in his pants.

Thanks. That is the coolest thing that I will probably see all year and its only the 2nd. Now what am I going to do?

I watched it live on New Years Eve.....pretty cool. Too bad Rhys Millen's back flipping truck stunt didn't work out as well.

Me too, crapping my pants for him, bricks too, as I watched live TV. I didn't see any safety nets, one minor error and you're splattered into Tivo history, dead as a door nail. Red Bull wings won't help you if you miss.

Did anyone notice how scared his wife was? That gave me pause, if she's that worried, I know that's a dangerous stunt.

She was because little over a year ago when Rhys was practicing the stunt the truck overshot the cardboard boxes to cushion the landing and he broke and or compressed 5 vertebrae.

Awesome jump. He just seemed to "float" to the top. The drop down was breathtaking. Man he nailed it.
His girlfriend is HOT too..

"nailed it" is right. he overshot his landing a bit if u watched, thats y he was letting his head lean on the handle bars lol. he came down HARD when he landed. i figure hes gonna hav one helluva headache for another week after that. not knockin him cuz i wouldnt hav even gotten past speed runs. u guys r all talkin bout how u couldnt hav come down, i wouldnt hav even gotten UP.
