When trying for a world record... expect to crash. A lot.

Johannes Fischbach wanted to make the world's longest jump with a mountain bike off a 140-metre ski jump

Some years ago Fischi already made test jumps from an 85 meter ski jump and reached a distance of 50 meters.

Why didn't he have some EMT's at the bottom?

here is a video, skipping the build of the extension to the ski jump, of the practice runs

if you can land it, then go for it... but if you wad it up and wind up in the hospital, well, your last words better have been "hold my beer and watch this!"

he's lucky he made it, 8 inches farther from the pool edge and he'd be in the hospital or morgue

his back tire took a hell of a hit from the pool edge 

Evel Knievel says don't try that

Hot wheels score truck makes a mighty long jump, a new record, and a good landing

This is not a successful landing, but if they practice they are going to nail this manuever, and shows will be cooler than ever!

It's pretty cool that you can see how they engineered the ramp to get the truck to flip, and that they set up a huge landing pad

the Lucas Oil trucks put on a great display at SEMA this year, lots of space, great ramp, and 2 shows a day!

So you jump your motorcycle onto a building... big deal. Want to impress me? Jump off it... and he did!

Robbie Maddison, who has taken over the informal motorcycle jumping crown that Evel Knievel once held, leaped a world-record 322 feet, seven inches in Las Vegas on New Years Eve.


Thanks Mike!
