I watched that last night. I couldn't believe that guy tried it twice.

Liked his manager, though.

Did y'all notice that at the end of his first jump, the photographer had a Gary Fong Lightsphere (clear) on his flash?

I noticed that too. Gary is getting a free spot on the tube!

LOL...I was at my sister's house with a TON of family and friends and we were watching it.

I was so happy to see his "tupperware" as my family calls it...my husband pointed it out and said he guesses I'm not the only one who puts "tupperware" on my camera :)

I would have loved to see the wife/GF's face when he said he was going again. She looked pissed at the end of the second jump! And this has given me new footage to show my wife when I need to justify MY hobby " see honey I could be doing something like this at least I can't get killed taking pictures!" :)

You ought to check out some of the moto photos in the Transportation Forum.

Yeah, I watched the jump, also. It was very cool, but I was getting sick and tired of them constantly telling me that the jump would happen "right after the break" and then come back after commercial with more babble for 10 minutes, and then tell me the same thing again. I must have seen the Trojan pig commercial 50 times.
