World record - Skiing off a cliff

[MurrayH]

That's a 245 feet drop.

I wouldn't call it skiing, not even jumping... Feels more like "Bombs Away!"

And the guy just skis out of the crater:

WTF, that dude is a nut!! Do you think he actually thought he could stick it. I've dropped in off of a 15-20 foot cornice and thought I was a god. You are right about not calling it skiing or jumping. That kind of stuff is called hucking. People huck on mountain bikes too. If you haven't seen the World Extreme Skiing Championships, look around for some footage. It is in Alaska and has the nastiest terrain I have ever seen (on TV).

Thanks for sharing that lunatic.

Thanks for the reaction. I know that not many people are skiers (I am), but skier or not, one can see this guy is incredible.
