Ice Skating on Peachtree St.

[zapataoffshore]

I Love that Atlanta shuts down for at least a day now, because things like this get to happen. Back in the 90s when there was almost no one out at night even without snow I used to skate (roller) Peachtree Street & Peachtree Road in the early am hours. There were a few groups that used to night skate back then. I gotta try the Ice thing if we are lucky enough to get another good solid covering in the next few years... Thank You for posting this =)

Where's the man with guitar ?

[HattieLovesCattie]

I saw this on TV,its very RARE that this happens in Hotlanta.

[alainawithana]

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS EVERYDAY IN RUSSIA.

[filipinoICEsk8ter]

Awesome way to save gas and stay fit. That really kicks ass.

[AprilLouiseJones]

hahahaha... that shit is coool!!!! i wish Australia had ice storms, i wanna try that!!!

[violetrainbow2ne1]

In Suwanee, ( near Atlanta GA) the roads in my neighborhood was covered with sheets and sheets of hard snow, I skated with ice skates. The big hill is very dangerous to skate on..

[aka4god]

Wow, not even new york's roads were that icy. Ice Skating on the open road looks fun.

[Alientank]

Wow look at how awesome his stop is. Amateur.

[regginald9]

this shit should be filmed from the northeast or canada .. who woulda thought atlanta gets to have fun like this .. i guess being "slow" and "behind" does have its advantages, pretty fuckin sweet .. wheres the stick and puck though?

[BrianDanin]

@regginald9 watching this, I was thinking specifically, "This is totally how hockey was invented in places like Canada and Russia" ... I was really wishing I had skates, a stick, and something puck-like; next time.

[JamesCalex]

Epic! I wish it snowed here in California :D

[Fibr3Optix]

Not sure what city this is but have they not heard of Salt?

[piercedj316]

@Fibr3Optix Salt only works around the 20's. The temperature was hitting around the teens at night for the entire week. Basically, the snow came, then the freezing rain came, then the snow melted ever so slightly during the day, then it froze over each night. It sucked.

[BrianDanin]

@Fibr3Optix this is the ATL. Salt came a couple days later. This is one of the main streets that goes through downtown Atlanta, MidTown, and Buckhead ... things seem to move slower in the south, especially when it's cold and icy. It took about 3 days for a plow to come to Peachtree St.

[ExtremeNinjamom33]

@Fibr3Optix salt rusts your cars. last year here in alaska, it rained in november and it was all ice. we had to wait till snow fall we just threw plenty of rocks down to get some friction

[ILIKEKIDSSOMUCH]

@ILIKEKIDSSOMUCH Please learn how it spell it's kind of hard to read comments when almost every word is spelled wrong.

[KyoTheFoxDemon]

@ILIKEKIDSSOMUCH Shut up you hateful piece of trash. I'm pretty sure this person, American or not, has enough sense to get off the street if a car comes.

[xinsanendabrainx]

The streets look about as cold as the Falcons were tonight vs GB..... better luck next year ;) GO BEARS!

[Zugvogel1]

*lol* What the Cops Would say... :)...Ticket for speeding

[drLucaDaniele]

Amazing !!

[smilerutie]

COOOOOL! :D

[ausipockets]

that's so cool

[Canadianflipboy1]

it still kinda sucks how he had to skate up hill XD

[greymation]

So this is what the male figure skates do in America after the Olympics

[Deadfox7777]

@greymation thouse are hockey skates

[harryslide]

Just fabulous! It's usually ca. 6-8 degrees warmer in Hotlanta than in west Cobb where I am. I'm surprised! It's like that here, too. Yet another reminder of why they, the northerners, come here, and why we don't go there, to live.

[bugalooshrimp92]

well that's one way to get home...

[MsElizabeth1966]

I can't believe the radical comments made. There are people of all races here in the ATL. Atlanta doesn't consist of blacks only. Thats's a lie that the media portray ATL to be. "A Black City" The next time you are here.come and visit you will be very surprise to see more whites than any other race on Peachtree. Don't believe everything you see from the media, come and see for yourself.

By the way great job ice skater.

[StormyWeather21]

@MsElizabeth1966 Thank you, at least someone here has a brain.

[deckham]

Well done sir. If I still lived down there I'd be joining ya! Now try a little Back to the Future and see how long you can hold on to the back of a pickup truck! :D

[Sirdrake369]

The Real Matty Ice

[photoshopknight]

this reminds me of a hey arnold episode xD

[andyrccar]

sweet

[niecy0478]

Ha ha ha ignorant fool ummmm there are white people in Atlanta......NOT COOL

[TheExecutiveDecision]

@niecy0478 Not many!

[TheExecutiveDecision]

This cant be Atlanta. The guy in the video was white.

[StormyWeather21]

@TheExecutiveDecision shut the fuck up, go eat a dick! It's always little shits like you trolling youtube with your bullshit, hiding behind your screen.

[TheExecutiveDecision]

@StormyWeather21 Whoa... relax. You clearly take youtube far too serious. YOu used foul language twice in two little sentences. So who is the troll? And sorry I am behind a screen, thats usually neccessary to watch computer videos. Next time, would you like me to come over and sit next to you while we watch the videos together? That way I am not behind a screen? See how akward that is! Maybe we will be able to holographically leave comments one day & will clear up the whole behind a screen thing

[StormyWeather21]

@TheExecutiveDecision so the guy who called you out for your bullshit is the troll and not you who talked shit to begin with? CLASSIC!

[GKiltz]

Skating Away-ay-ay On the thin ice of a new day-ay!

[StateOfTheInitiative]

This is awesome for obvious reasons.

It's also incredibly say. The city can't clear it's major road, yet I'm getting shit for being late to work.

Goooo ATLANTA!

[MyShust]

unique method of movement )))

[jstern6774]

That looks like so much fun.

[m2cmentor]

I have ice skates, wish I could go out and skate somewhere too!

[xheathermichelle]

I've had serious cabin fever...wish I had ice skates like this dude lol.

[biophiler]

Love it!!! This is how I learned how to skate!!!

[terrellbrown15]

Did a hockey game start later on?

[cmartyn88]

Wow!! This was pretty cool. :)

[MyM40iZB4NGiiN]

poor atlanta. i wish we were shutdown in dc like we were last year

[theBestArts]

Great way to show the world why Atlanta has been shut down for three days. It wasn't just the 4-6" of snow, it was the trailing 1" of freezing rain.

[BrownEyes886]

Saw this guy on 11Alive last night.. Thats a good way to pass the time.. I hate being stuck in my house in Lawrenceville! ugh..

[jostd48]

Niklas Bergfors, LOL

[Sharoney]

I hate skating. I always end up on my butt. But I loved this video. He makes it look effortless!

[MrKaelakaelakaela]

Well that's one way to get famous

[BrianDanin]

This is around the 12th St. intersection at Peachtree

[ninaemmaline]

Peachtree and what cross street?

[MohanadKhuraishi]

[MiyahSummer]
