I have dreams that I'm doing stuff like that on a motorcycle, and they are jangleplatz! If I had to do that in real life I'd piss my own and everyone else's pants in a three mile radius! (and then crash on the first set of stairs) That guy has balls of diamond, holy crap!

And a sharp dress-sense, too. I love a guy who goes to do something silly and takes the time to dress up properly.

If, like me, you want to <s>want</s> need to know more after seeing that, that was the Valparaiso Cerro Abajo, an annual downhill race in Valparaiso, Chile.
Here's a writeup up this year's race, which was just a couple weeks ago: Filip Polc Wins 2011 Valparaiso Cerro Abajo
(the video is from the previous year's event)

And here is what happens when you don't get it quite right:

That's just crazy. I really want to try something like that.
I'd probably piss Dan's pants though.

I junked out on videos for quite some time after watching that first one.
Here is a good compilation:

There is another one, that I can't seem to find right now, that has someone overshooting the whole damned landing ramp on that big drop, and exploding his back wheel.
Didn't look pleasant.
