Sally:

I'm, inspired by 'IDIOTS' like this cuz I are one .

Although I don't need or use one...yet, my late husband taught me how to pop wheelies on dirt bikes, wheelchairs and finally on a motor scooter before he passed on (The speed bumps at Wal-mart are awesome if you want to catch some air with those).
Even though it was terminally diseased, he used his body in which ever way it could be used until the very last. By then it was well decorated with scars and it only had four teeth; as the rest had been knocked out doing stuff similar to the guy in this video throughout his life .

He lived a full and rich life without regrets, and actually looked forward to seeing what was on the other side.
He too inspired me to take a few risks now and then; asserting that what you survive, makes you stronger and wiser. I believe that, although I'm still working on the latter one .

With love, Erika

I guess I would have done some of this stuff if I had a little more courage. Give me the biggest baddest roller coaster and I will want to ride it. We have a well known but small amusement park close by called Holiday World. It has some of the best world ranking roller coasters. I sued to ride most of them. Now I just ride the most dare devil and then I feel like my brain has been shaken enough that I can't ride any other. It's a wooden roller.

I did click on the other link and found one of my favorite pro golfer. He used to do that kind of stuff but on a skate board. I was hoping he wasn't going to be going down that ramp, but if he did it was his choice. But what he was doing was shooting golf balls down them. So it was cool to see Rickie Fowler combine his tow sports.

Thanks for sharing this video, Erika! The guys name was familiar so I went looking for this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iI_N5T3pmxQ .

There's a fine line between brave and stupid! I don't think the kid is stupid but My Gosh the risks he takes!

Well yes, he too may be working on gaining the wisdom part of the 'stronger and wiser' thingy...but I doubt that he'll spend much time crying in his morning oatmeal when he has no teeth with which to chew .

With love, Erika
