Red Bull rampage holly cow. I have watched a few different runs now and I cant tell if these guys are insane or brilliant.

 
Fine line between genius and insanity! Awesome video...
 
I wonder what the disclaimer to ride that race looks like>?
 
It's good we have some outlets for people like this, it is much more humane than sédation and padded cells.
 
Damn, I get sweaty palms just watching that shit!!
 
I was stunned when they said that the crash linked above is the worst accident they've had in 8 years of running this.....looked to me like the sort of event that wheelchair manufacturers would be sponsoring!
 
The guy in the 1st video that @robert843 posted died I think earlier this year during a ride, though I don't recall if it was during training or a competition.

Those guys are nuts!
