Hardkore Sledging
 

My friends and I decided to start practice for the Winter Olympics;

I have a small video here from when we first tried to film the stunt, we gave the camera to some guy passing by but he didn't film it too well, you can hear him say they're f*ing crazy though biggrin:

There was a big azz hill outside my friends house & there was still enough snow left on it for sledging.
We nicked a road crash barrier thing and used it as a sled, then we decided to build a ramp at the bottom of the hill, the pictures tell the story. We picked up quite an impressive speed and must have cleared at least 10ft when we took off. rock:

This is the hill, only about halfway up if that, there's as much of it when you turn around and look the other way.
