I think its a very well made fake.But too be fair,when in mid air the body and legs do move like its real,but I don't think you could judge the landing position off the pool so close for every run,plus whats to stop you coming off the ramp arseways and ending up left or right of the landing pool???Regards,Micky
i saw that on another site yesterday. that clip is cut short. in the other clip you can see a crash test type dummy on the floor which i think they may have used to get the distance right before launching himself down it
if it was real..... on landing he would have hit the water, gone thru the side of the pool and taken the pool with him. water cant stop you that quick like a brick wall, if it could it would have broken all the bones in his body.

you would be surprised how water can act like concrete at speed. look at the super fast speed boats when they go wrong, and also how far a bullet can go into water before it gets stopped...
although too many variables in this to be real i think... why not film it from a different angle where you can see all the slide and the pool, like at the top? what happens to the slide in the dip???
People do some crazy shit for real, so, whilst this would have been amazing if it had been real, it's not that far fetched really, hence being vaguely believable IMO.
That second one is mental!!!! The first one, well, I'd have stood on his hand.

You not see the Alain Robert documentary on telly? One of the best documentaries I have seen. An unreal human being, with a family too. Imagine how his wife must feel each time he goes out the door to 'work'.
