    It’d be interesting if he dies soon. 10/10 on the crash into the mountainside btw, not sure why the rest was even included.

    Dave Wray Red Bull sells enough product everyday to pay for his medical bills get this are you listening Dave Wray 10,000,000,000, times over. But you’re so damn stupid you failed to realize is that none of this was filmed in America, not only was this not in America, but these extreme sports athletes are covered by companies like Lloyds of London Insurance Company the most high risk insurance company out there, they insure Lebron James Legs. Nobody paid for his medical bills other than his sponsors and maybe his insurer.

    Somebody please show this video to those idiotic ‘Rooftoppers’ who go climbing on top of cranes and buildings without safety gear. Most of them dont have fear and as this guy explains, without fear you die. The most important thing is not to forget fear because without it you make stupid moves which result in death.

    What a stupid man. He was so lucky, he survived and he says he learnt all this and then he’s back at it. There is getting back on the saddle and then there is ego and plain stupidity. It’s all ego and stupidity from now. No respect for himself or his family.

    Selfish. Continue doing what you love until it either kills you or disables you and then someone else has to devote their time to caring for you and picking up the tab on your expenses. This is so selfish.

    Anyone that does this is not only stupid but also selfish in not caring about what kind of torment they put their families through. The cost of rehabilitation for this fool could have went toward curing some unfortunate child with MS that would like nothing better than to take one step without falling to the ground. The family are the ones hurting, not him.

I am a parent and if it were my kids doing this it would put me in a early grave ! Also R.I.P. Bro because your one tiny screw up away from being dead ! It’s just a matter of which jump will do it ?

    Why is everyone negative? His family would’ve been so relieved to find out he was alive and not taken. He healed and carried on the pursue his dream. I think this is a good thing that he recovered and went back to what he loves.

    Fear might be a good thing, but too much fear can be as bad as well, since you can loose you judgment or forget what to do, get into panic.
