When I was a kid I thought I was being pretty tricky by riding a bike backwards, sitting on the handlebars. Totally didn't have the imagination, the bike, and probably the skills for this stuff!!!

I think if I tried the first trick I'd probably kill myself in the process. What I can't figure out is how his wheel is still round. I hit one curb and it's already messed up.

I bet the cops quit trying to catch him long ago...

only in a country with free national healthcare would someone try stuff like this.

p.s. I notice he also recognized the danger of doing a jump with a hard seat under your genitals. I did one several years ago without the foresight to remove the seat or lower it. Went from football to choir real fast.
