    I'll even throw out as a teaser the auto related line that led me to post it here in the first place. This guy is certifiable.

    "Mr Auer, from Gross-Gerau near Frankfurt, is considered to be the most extreme in-line skater in the world. He already holds the world record for reaching speeds of 190mph as he was dragged along behind a Porsche GT2."

    Blink, blink.

    56 mph? Doesn't seem all that fast.

    190? thats pretty fast. Where is the pavement smooth enough to skate at 190? wouldn't that snap your legs off?

    The pics make the story for me. I like the big prescription glasses and super dorky outfit.

    In the article he went 56mph, which isn't that fast. I've done 60mph on rollerblades hanging on to the side of my friend's Prelude(but that was in my young and fearless days). 190mph on rollerblades is just nuts.
