Cool jump, he did indeed make it look easy. Looks like the most dangerous part was the possibility of swallowing the harbor water when he jumped in at the end lol.

Awesome jumps, the backflip into the harbor looked more dangerous. I was wondering how he was going to stop after landing...crashing into the retaining wall worked out well.  :2thumbs:

 :bigsmile: Yeah, watched that live, the guy is nuts with big ones.  :roflsmiley: And the only problem (and I mentioned this possibility to my wife) was the dew settling on the landing area, they should have thought of that and had it "mopped" down before the jump. He's lucky he was able to control the slide the way he did, still had to jar him pretty good. No practice passes for that jump  :eek2: although I'm sure there were plenty of land runs prior a lot closer to the ground.  :roflsmiley:
