Awesome Stunts

Stuntmen Enrico Schoeman and André de Kock pulled off this death-defying record breaking feat in which they drove their motorcycle through a 395 foot-long tunnel of fire – and this is after they were injured on previous attempts.

During a recent Nitro Circus event, performer R Willy pulled off an astounding feat – the world’s first triple backflip on a scooter. Apparently, he’s been attempting this at every show for two years straight, so persistence pays off.

Despite being only 15 seconds long, this POV video of parkour acrobat Oleg Cricket running and jumping between ledges atop a hi-rise will have you sitting on the edge of your seat – because you probably wet your pants.

The latest conquest of the trespassing thrill-seekers known as On the Roofs is the Ping An Finance Centre in Shenzhen, China. Still under construction, the skyscraper currently stands about 2,200ft. high.

Before the Kia World Extreme Games, rider Pat “Big Daddy” Laughlin performed an insane stunt, riding his bike down a ramp, dismounting and landing on another bike to finish his ride. We went from “No way.” to “Way!” and you will too.

Nitro Circus and Red Bull rider Josh Sheehan made history by pulling off the world’s first triple backflip on a motorcycle. The air he got was insane, but his measured landing is even more impressive (and important).

Wheels? We don’t need no steenkin’ wheels! That’s the thought that must have been going through the minds of MAJER Crew as they show off some skate tricks with the wheels pulled off of their skateboards, riding only on the bearings.

YouTuber DJ Spillz shared this video of a kid chasing a Revolution sport kite. The advanced kite offers precise control of its speed, direction, angl– nah. The kite is alive. It’s the only explanation that makes sense.

Wingsuit flyer Sebastian Alvarez just gets more and more daring. His latest stunt had him smashing head first into what appears to be a small styrofoam board, which was held aloft by two of his bravest buddies on top of a mountain.

Donning a special suit, and battling fierce winds, 54 year-old stuntman Eric Barone broke his 2000 downhill mountain bike speed record by riding his bike down a mountain in the French Alps, hitting an blistering top speed of 138.75mph.

We can think of not many ideas more insane than pulling yourself along the surface of a frozen lake using the tip of a working chainsaw as your propulsion. But that didn’t stop skier Erik Sunnerheim from giving it a try anyhow.

YouTuber samigniz was being chased by another player on a fighter jet in Grand Theft Auto V Online when he saw a golden opportunity. He went up a small bank and flipped his car into the air just as the jet fired its guns.

Bike rider Bienvenido Aguado Alba’s GoPro captured exactly what he saw when he crash landed, then later pulled off the first ever competition double front-flip – giving us just a small taste of the rush he must have experienced.

Yuki Kadono won the 2015 Burton US Open Men’s Slopestyle with this video game-caliber run. The 18-year old smoothly pulled off two 1620º somersaults – that’s 4-1/2 rotations – in quick succession. Does he weigh anything?

It turns out the crew of Furious 7 actually dropped cars from a cargo plane for one of the movie’s stunts. Even though they didn’t actually toss all the cars at once, it was still one heck of an undertaking, especially for the cameramen.

A duo of daredevils race each other to the top of a 27-story abandoned building, only to jump out when they reach the top floor. We’re just glad they didn’t snag their chutes on any of the debris on the way up.

Snowboarder Jamie Barrow is known for his speed, but this stunt took things to a whole new level. Ultimately, Jamie hit 78mph before letting go. We wonder if he wore a parachute if he could go airborne and then land safely. Probably not.

This is a metaphor for many of life’s challenges. Something about lights, tunnels, heights and broken bones. Er, live by making sure today’s going to be your last? We’ll just let Marshall Miller show you. He’s a walking motivational poster.

Sure, it’s a shameless plug for Famous Footwear, but that doesn’t make the sight of Shauna Duggins taking the kids for the ride of their lives in 550hp RWD minivan any less awesome. Parents, don’t try this at home. (Thanks Spencer!)

The latest short film form LBP Stunts Chicago is a bloody good demonstration of their martial arts and fight choreography skills, as a single kung fu disciple must fight his way up the ladder of challenging opponents.

When you’re flying around in a stunt plane during an air race, you’re not supposed to hit the pylons. But that doesn’t mean it’s not part of the fun for spectators. Here are a few of the best pylon hits from the Red Bull Air Race season.

Al the Jumper shows exactly why he’s been given that name, as he performs an incredibly dangerous stunt – jumping over two bikes bearing down on him at nearly 70mph. One wrong move, and both Al and the bikers are toast.

We already know how to climb to the top of a tower, but BASE jumpers JT Holmes and Mark Broderick know the fast way down. Watch as Mark does nine flips on the way down, then opens his chute perilously close to the bottom.
