 After watching that, I feel like I need a bucket to puke in.

So do I.
It is amazing his bike didn't brake.

Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

I used to motocross, I agree.

Over rocks and between very close trees? If so you get a standing ovation from me. That's insane.

No, wide tracks, even trials riding isnt as mad as downhill mountain biking.
I was just saying, give me an engine in an off road bike and you can have hours of fun!

That would be a bucket array. This is a bucket list:
private List<Bucket> buckets;

Man, the graphics for the next Grand Theft Auto look promising...

Nope. All kinds of nope. He came sooo close to some of those trees around 2:40. I wonder how many hospital visits per month this guy averages

My god, it looks like most of that stuff would kill you with one small mistake. Was that video realtime? Not sped up? Probably not. Craaaaazeeee.

I wondered the same thing.
But GoPros are quite wideangled cameras that make it look like it's faster.
Maybe someone with more knowledge on the subject can enlighten us.

Well, we know it isn't sped up. You can hear breathing and talking in some parts of the video which seem consistent. As someone that has done downhill bike races as a kid, you can quickly gain a large amount of speed. Given that nearly this entire course appears to be downhill, the slowing down to a light pace during some forest sections of the video, the sound of wind, and the speed that would be required for some of those jumps, I'm guessing it's real-time footage.
That's my analysis anyways

That was my thinking too. That sure takes guts / expertise.

Insane though I suspect it looks/feels quite different when you are the rider and in some semblance of control.

No margin for error there at all. Insane.

Unless it's the last item on the list - the one that makes you kick the bucket.

My movie would be about ten seconds long.

Surely that video was sped up ?

That looks like it'd be the final item one's next of kin could cross off their bucket list for them. However, when I was younger.. that would have been a ton of fun.. slower and without the jumps though. But then again, what do I know, I drove into work today (8" of snow in Portland, OR).
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

...that could probably fill the The Weird & The Wonderful for the rest of year, posting daily. 
I'll post some of the juicier stuff soon.

The stuff I write, it's more the gestalt of the thing, not the code itself, that would be suitable for TW&TW. 
Well, hmmm, there are some exceptions, now that I think about it.
