Living in New York City, I’ve often contemplated whether or not I’d be able to jump over the subway tracks, from one platform to the other. But because of fear, or just sheer laziness, I’ve never attempted this heroic feat. Which is probably good, because even if I did, I’d just look like a pussy next to this guy.

When you’re a kid, there’s really nothing better than a Slip ‘n Slide on a hot day. Even when you’re an adult, the idea of speeding along across a wet strip of plastic seems pretty appealing. But when you have the biggest balls ever, your Slip ‘n Slide has to be a) monstrous, b) have a giant f**king ramp and c) have the scariest landing of all-time. You know, like this guy…

If there’s one stereotype that never needs to be put to rest, it’s that Russians drink a hell of a lot of vodka – because it’s true. In fact, they drink so much vodka, that even their stunts require a healthy dosage, just to pull off the trick. You know, unless you think this guy is sober…

I’m not exactly sure what it is about humans that makes us want to do stupid stunts just for the hell of it. But whatever it is, I’m sure as hell happy it exists. Take this girl for instance – she wants to jump across this dry creek. She goes for it… and fails, big time.Then cries when she lands on her head. Hooray for humans!

A very few times in life, the stars properly align to bring you the most perfect thing you’ve ever seen. This is one of those times. Meet YouTube user, Barnaby the Juggler, who must be some type of magic biker clown, because this cigarette trick of his is like some type of amazing miracle.

I’m not exactly sure how these guys came up with the idea to use a TV in place of a soccer ball or a hacky sack, but something tells me it involved being really, really bored. Either that, or they thought they would win the Break.com College Break Contest, which they did. So, good move! You know, along with all the other good moves.

For most people, jumping on top of a rolling exercise ball will result in one thing and one thing only – completely busting your ass. But if you’re a gymnast, things go a little bit differently. In fact it goes so awesomely right, it almost seems like magic. You know, if you consider physics magic…

I’m not sure why, but for some reason seeing people do backflips just never gets old. But seeing a monster truck do a backflip is pure awesomeness. Where the guy gets the balls to do this stunt, I have no idea. But I commend you, good sir. Well played.

I’ve never really understood this ghost riding thing. I mean, I understand that it’s badass to be able to get out of your car while it’s hurtling itself down the road, with nobody driving. But once you start to get into coreographed moves, it’s on the verge of becoming a little bit lame. These dudes aren’t going to get laid from doing this, let’s just put it that way.

Before watching this video, I had no idea people were so into pogo sticking. I mean, these goofy bastards are jumping over cars, doing backflips andgriding ledges like they’re on skateboards – or rather, they’re trying to. Thing is, even when you do a pogo stick trick right, you still kind of look like a dumbass…

When you’re trying a stunt in your dorm hallway, it’s best you pick a stunt partner who isn’t going to slam your face into the wall when he screws up. But then again, nobody would have cared if these guys would have actually pulled it off – so scratch that.

Jackie Chan is a complete puss! Well…. not really….. but I thought that would make a real eye-catchy opening sentence for a blog about professional stuntman school. These high-falling, dragged-by-car, set-on-fire, roughens are the one’s who take the punch and blows so precious actors like Tom Cruise walk away unscathed….

It’s one thing to go all out on a big stunt and fail miserably. That happens all the time. It’s an entirely different thing, however, to just totally f**k up while you’re on the launch ramp.

I’m not sure what it takes to grow balls this big, but Moto-X rider Robie Madison sure as hell does. This dude not only jumps 120-feet, landing on the top of the Arc de Triomphe replica in Las Vegas, he then jumps down…… Click to read more

The sport of Parkour (jumping off buildings, climbing up buildings, flipping around the the g*ddamned Matrix) might seems like some type of future ninjitsu. But it turns out crazy sons-of-bitches have been doing exactly the same stuff since at least the 1930′s. My guess i… Click to read more
