Pretty cool

But if im honest and there was some way to sort it ( ie sponsors etc ) I would defo attempt to beat that record

The problem is tho you need to be famous to get backing to do things like that , or be very very rich to finance it yourself

I wouldnt atempt what he does on a bike tho , fucking nutter

not impressed by that at all really, simple physics
Plenty of stuntmen would have perfected it before he did it, as long as he can accelerate to a speed and keep it there, job done.

Not trying to be one of those annoying people who says "thats easy blah etc" but come on .... !!

its the longest rally car jump..... and it was over water onto a fucking barge so,,,, well i doubt many would have the balls to attempt it though im sure loads will say " i can do that"

you need to be screwed in another way to do some of there stunts,,, heres one im sure you could do too,,, as it looks piss easy aswell,, just jumping out of a hole in a plane ,, hell he even had people helping him too.. what a pussy

I'd agree with that.
