Site injections of mineral oil or something called Synthol apparently.

googling "synthol fail' is interesting.

Big, and slightly insane...
He's a weightlifter!!
Anyway. Here's something proper.

This jump remained the longest for 23 years.
Nice to see The Fridge up there ^^

Mentalist!!! 😯
I am ok, I got this.

..later that day 🙂
[img]

Mentalist indeed.
Einstein said:
"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
Watching Bender ride off that massive drop again and again & failing every time leads me to believe that he is indeed, insane 🙂
Definitely in the "big" category though....

Back to the water - Grand Inga project, the worlds biggest river Rapids. Well worth getting the documentary.

This is the little 'training' river, aka the Nile.

I always look at those multi-expsoure photos and initially think it's some sort of formation bike riding team doing a display.
Some lovely stuff today, folks! I really like that ski jump one, sums up the lunacy of the sport for me!
How about some of this;

And, just to prove he does sometimes face the right way;

Sadly Shane Mcconky died skibasing supposedly when one of his Tyrolia pre-release bindings (the comedy ones from the 80s that you could trick people in lift queues with), didn't.
Candide's landing from that very jump almost cost him his mobility. He went on to much greater things though in the free skiing arena
Done before, but worth a re-post
The Bender shot is obviously enhanced by the duplication of a couple of layers of strata.
Not taking anything away from the man though!
BOOM, boardinbob, BOOM! 😀
