Robbie Knievel Jumps Mirage Volcano

Here is the lesser of the two Vegas New Year's motorcycle jumps.

 

 

You can see the part where he has to make this turn while he is trying to gain speed before the jump. It even looks a little wet right there. It doesn't look safe.

He makes it easily and then does some kind of Frankensteinesque celebration on the ramp.

What this video doesn't show is the three minutes or so of "computer-generated renderings" of the different ways Robbie Knievel would die if something went wrong.

Talk about lesser!

I watched the Maddison jump first and then this one. This was lame compared to Maddisons. Did these happen at the same time because those who saw this one got gipped.

I'm not in denial, I'm just selective about the reality I choose to accept.
