  Since the camera is stuck to the side of the helmet, his head moves, but the camera moves right along with it.  Notice how everything else moves....:wtf:

Boy, I hope he's got a good stock of toilet paper close by :action:.

I noticed he was following a grove in the top there (at least he's got that much brain) but I can't tell if the grove was hand dug or from when he did that run a bunch of times in the dry.  Either way, dude's nuckin' futz.

I figure the groove was either a walking path, or a sometimes bike path. But with the fresh snow, how can you see the path in some areas?

Plus a foot or two either way, and it's a long way down the hill......

As they are riding along when you can see the Horizon it has a definite curve to it, they are using a fish eye lens that makes the ridge look narrower and steeper than it really is. I think it is still plenty steep and narrow, just not quite so much as the picture tries to make it look.

I've stood on a mountain top ridge like that in Colorado. Elevation was 13,000 feet. Once over the edge, you would slide and tumble for over 1/2 mile before hitting a rock big enough to stop you. Quite exciting, though!

Pretty much 100%. The head never moves relative to the horizon even though the hands and arms are being flailed about severely. No snow ever on the front tire either.

Only took me a few minutes to look, for other footage on Youtube, of folks with cameras strapped to their helmets and chests, whilst riding downhill on bicycles and motorbikes, to prove to me that the view is exactly as in the original clip. The head appears not to move and the arms do indeed bang around all over the place. The landscape doesn't even move that much and stays in focus with most footage.
Have a look around at some of the biking videos on Youtube and you will almost certainly change your minds. :waving::waving:

Hard to say this one is fake, but I'm sure someone will....

Read on another forum that it is from a video game.
