We recorded it, and watched it just now. I feel for his mother, she has got to have a heart attack every time she watches him do something crazy, Great video though!

There's a nice still on this link:
Travis Pastrana breaks world record for longest rally car jump on New Year's Eve

I heard him on the Jim Rome Show earlier in the week talking to the guest host. Craziness runs in his family!

watching it on espn was awesome. I wish I would have recorded it. I had forgotten about it until it came on after football.


when I posted this last night it wasnt on youtube yet. They didnt even have any stills up anywhere yet.
