Didn't listen to the audio, on the bus with my phone, but this is badass.

Holy schit that is insanely awesome. Man, I thought my 30 ft single backflip on the guad was intense. Holy crap. That is so ridiculously dangerous, and he's just going back to back to back.

I wonder how bad it would hurt if you landed flat on... well anything and I could definitely see someone losing grip on the way down and hitting the rocks. BUT, this i the most impressive rope swing I've ever seen

Surface tension on the water is enough to kill you.

This is ballsy...

That guy is insane. I'm pretty certain he's a professional skiier that rides at Squaw Valley in Tahoe.

Here's another video of the same dude I was about post up a few weeks ago into the Truckee River in Tahoe as well.

And yes if he lands flat it will most certainly kill him. A kid at a local highschool died at my local lake this summer doing a double back off some cliffs half that size. Collapsed a lung and sunk to the bottom

Man that takes some serious guts. I guess with big jumps in skiing and some practice working your way up you could get used to it.

I'd be scared because the g force wanting to pull you off the rope. One of our local swings hurts to hold onto because it's pulling so hard when you swing from the top. Best swing in town though. Very Happy

Funny how he started a party by the end of the day. Looks like he almost landed in a boat at one point.
