OT: Pastrana Triple Back Flip...sorta

[bradzdotcom]

so i hear that over the weekend pastrana is going to pull out his new triple backflip while Nitro Circus is at the MGM Grand in las vegas.

that doesn't make sense, since the giant rig he's using to perfect a triple backflip is located elsewhere and wouldn't fit inside the arena anyway.

then somebody sends me this video.

different kind of triple backflip, but still pastrana-certified insane.




as if that wasn't enough, things got REALLY SCARY for TP later on in the show.
he proposed to his girlfriend and she accepted.
that's one incredibly brave woman, who probably will have one hell of a life insurance policy on her hubby.

later in the evening, a double-double back flip:

I do find it interesting that this high risk taker drives NASCAR roundy-round cars in his free time... am I missing something? Truth be told, the best trick he pulls is the back flip on a "Big Wheel."
