    Too bad his career will end early from broken ankles... from having to carry those huge balls around.

    He'll try it on a snowmobile because someone else might be able to do it on a motorcycle.

    Didn't even look like he felt the pain as he racked himself on the landing. Balls of steel indeed!

    Yeah--that's about as gnarly as it gets. The Nitro Circus crew is the gnarliest bunch of motherberkeleyers out there.

    Too cool. Phew...

    Don't those ding-a-lings at the monster truck shows do that with the dirt bikes?

    No. They do aerial tricks on bikes, but not THAT trick.

    Holy crap at all of that

    Yeah, Nitro Circus, for all their shenanigans, are routinely the guys that set the bar for tricks. Hell, DeChamp was the first one to ever land a motorcycle front flip.... and he doesn't ride motorcycles!
