Awesome Stunts

A single-engine plane comes in for a landing in the snow, then its pilot decides to hot dog a bit by drifting his plane through the white stuff like a car doing donuts in a parking lot. Once he’s had his fill, he proceeds to take back off again. Show off.

Just a couple of weeks after he blew our minds with the world’s first BMX triple front-flip, Nitro Circus’ whiz kid Ryan Williams is back with another intense feat, pulling off a trick that used to be performed only with scooters.

It wasn’t that long ago that we saw BMX rider Ryan Williams pull off an awe-inspiring single front-flip on his bike, and now he’s bested that by 3x, with an epic triple version of the same stunt – though not without some worthy competition and numerous spills along the way.

The crazy free-climbing duo On the Roofs shared their latest video – a view from the very top of the 1,094ft. Shimao International Plaza in Shanghai, China. We nearly peed ourselves when they got to the lightning rod.

Extreme athlete Graham Dickinson shared his recent wingsuit flight from France’s Le Brévent mountain not to show off, but to point out the skill of his buddy Dario Zanon, who shot this video and kept up with Graham the whole way.

For their latest Built For It Trials video, Cat pitted Hafthor “Thor” Bjornsson (aka “The Mountain” from Game of Thrones) against their D10T Dozer in the ultimate tug of war. Will Europe’s strongest man be defeated by his 77-ton nemesis and frigid Icelandic climate?

Track star Lolo Jones is used to speed – jumping over hurdles, not doing barrel rolls. Red Bull dropped Lolo into a plane with stunt pilot Kirby Chambliss to see how she’d take to the skies. Lolo’s reactions are priceless, but Kirby’s calm demeanor is even more astounding.

Trials rider Kenny Belaey demonstrates his incredible balance as he makes his way to the top of a rock, and then proceeds to ride his bike across a slackline over a 367 foot drop, all the while facing the challenges of the ~8900 foot altitude. Thank god for safety gear.

(PG-13 Language) It’s been a while since ICON Motorsports tore up the roads for our enjoyment. ICON riders Ernie and Nick find themselves stuck in a rut, until Officer Dan sends them on a mission to get them back up on their mighty steeds. (Thanks Matt!)

Finland’s StuntFreaksTeam tears up dirt, dust and gravel as they perform burnouts, spins, wheelies, and more on their motorcycles. If that weren’t enough, there’s a drift car that wants in on the action too.

Jaguar gave their all new F-PACE sports crossover the most dramatic entrance possible, sending it and stunt driver Terry Grant through a massive loop measuring a record-breaking 62.6 feet tall, and exerting nearly 6.5G along the way.

A basejumper takes the most harrowing route to his jump-off point as he slides down a treacherous stretch of cable that nearly takes his fingers off as he picks up speed. Might we suggest a pair of gloves? And jump from some place safe, like the top of a skyscraper.

We honestly have no idea what insanity was going through the mind of bicyclist Primož Ravnik as he set off straight down a 200-foot-tall dam without a jump ramp. The only thing between him and a certain demise was a small pool of water at the bottom.

Some backyard daredevils decided to put to the test the long-held belief that Volvos are some of the safest and most durable cars on the road. Their demolition derby approach is extreme, but the result is unquestionable. This ’94 Volvo 850 appears to be unkillable.

Red Bull BMX rider Drew Bezanson teamed up with professional ramp builders to make a couple of crazy ramps using shipping containers – one of the familiar sights in Drew’s hometown of Truro, Nova Scotia.

An impressive takedown by Trevor Logan as he dispenses of fellow stuntman Daniel Locicero using gymnastics and the power of his legs, courtesy of a move choreographed by stunt coordinator Arnold Chon. One more time here.
