[30thMarch]

[rassfredd]

If you break the world record in a giant rubber condom, you still only broke the record in a giant rubber condom :)

[PatjaAL]

[djthomashardstyle]

chuck norris

[speeddemon234]

[jdubin94]

Damn.. His skiis didn't even fall off

[BurtonSnowboard123]

[TDUCruise]

There wasnt enough space to stop any other way!

[jaketheman20]

243!

[DFP08]

was that camera in the end attached to his ass? LOL

[sombrero425]

SPY HUNTER!!!!!

[Mizlude]

I assert that the reason this kind of thing takes so long to beat is because it's fucking terrifying to be going 150+mph basically on foot, down a mountain.

[randomman971]

id fucking shit myself with the fall of part

[0932486509]

What better way to take a world record than with a giant wipe out at the end?

[TheTonysayles]

how the hell didn't one of his skis fall off.. lol

[szeryf215]

amatorka...

[GangsterProject]

sick hahah

[Sanpseudofix]

win then fail XD

[Varodunham92]

Fuck that was fast!

[MrBradyiscool]

How many miles per hour?

[klfrance]

@MrBradyiscool

151 mph

[tollurum]

what's the name of the song ?

[rrbushby]

@tollurum Spy Hunter (2001) - Peter Gunn Main Theme

[mcbainyourway]

Well No doubt, hes French ;) :) :D.x.

[pelcu17]

Ale wypierdolił na końcu

[Mrexantexan]

From the beginning it looks like 60mph but in the end before he fails totaly i would say 100+ but 151 mph? thats just .. wtf

[jeankepler]

He really looks like it's going only 90mph



[n0obia009]

0:32 you gonna have to pay that :D

[Balgore8]

That doesnt look fast at all... I guess its deceiving on camera.

[alextlbass]

Ski racing isn't REAL skiing. Freeskiing is all that really matters.

[RustyPease]

i believe that guy was that fast.... but it didnt look fast on the video somehow ^^

[EpicGameplayZ]

I WOULD SHIT MYSELF

[WhiteStripesRock44]

Blues Brothers song :D

[SieurmonGims]

Excusez-moi mais le record du monde de ski de vitesse a été battu en 2006, par Simone Origone d'une vitesse de 251km/h Ce n'est plus celui là !

[420steezy420]

@SieurmonGims Tu et grande elephante dans les tetes fromages! oui oui

[09wath]

[justpooky]

[rockbandwii6]

[JerkiChannel]

[BroSkateboarding]

[sakic19viron]

@BroSkateboarding wtf does that mean ... you took that from anothr video and now evryone is doing it it in hops of getting thumbs up ... but is it jjust me or it doesnt even make sense ?

[BroSkateboarding]

@sakic19viron Ive never seen it in a different video..? And it's self explaining

[sakic19viron]

@BroSkateboarding waht does it mean though ?

[BroSkateboarding]

@sakic19viron Fench frie's means going with your skis straight like french fries. And Pizza-ing means that you making a pizza with your skis, If you know what i mean, breaking with the tips together..

[shgjlsfg]

yeah! hualin ass yeah!

[NickSutarz]

imagine if he had spread his legs a bit more.

[fergiebob242]

It's not that fast

[danks452]

LoL when i do 90 kph on my ski i feel like im going to die but 243 DAMMMMNNNN !!!

[Treebyter]

approx 151 MPH for those who are interested. Don't think that's very fast, try it :)

[spinwindyj]

i did that switch on a green once

[jbmyworlddaenna]

hahahhh funny,,,, he slipped!

[RULIS79]

ahaha he fail @ 0:28

[hellswings]

id like to see him hit a jump at that speed xD

[YoNico111]

One error and his dead!

[SpaniardSolitary]

@YoNico111 This is the better of the ski Speed, the adrenaline :).

[lillebrorgrimm]

the camera was not used during the record run, as you understand. The poles are used as framework, helping the skier to maintain the tuck at those speeds - also, by rule, poles are mandatory in the sport.

[Viperboy519]

wat song is this isnt it from a game??????

[trishfarm]

I think its called peter gun

[trishfarm]

Peter Gunn theme song.

[isven9000]

@Viperboy519 Spyhunter on PS2 used a version of this song performed by Saliva.

[isven9000]

@Viperboy519 And yes, it is the Peter Gunn Theme song (original, and the one in this video).

[tomizzo11]

Spongebob

[ssnatcherss]

Shit, going that fast in a car is scary. Imagine doing that while standing.

[MagicAndYuGiOhDude]

He had a camera in his ass?

[jimmyyeah2008]

@think4everyone 151mph

[think4everyone]

damn he was flyin.. mph?

[tsiehtath]

massive

[jshuggy90]

the wipe out is the best part

[DjAr2]

there should be a huge ramp at the end, i'd love that!

[rapiscrappy]

there should be a huge ramp over the fence where he took it out

[BMoses16]

@rapiscrappy

no the fence was good because it slowed him down lol. When this guy crashed he had no control at all, he was just along for the ride whereever it took him.

[ypparcsipar]

@BMoses16 but thats not interesting

[MrTalklikeapirate]

@DjAr2 ha ha yeah in fact there should be a series of slopes and ramps. if you dont bear the world record you just go to the next one and so on...

[messi348]

he will be jump around the world when he'll jump at the end:)

[georgert]

That right ski took a nasty wobble between :18 and :19.

[loudmeter1]

goku gold your such a fucking idiot

[fjbutch]

AMAZING !!!

[KanzlerM]

151 MPH Wow.

[OoNik0oO]

nerd

[KanzlerM]

"nerd"

Thank you... but I didn't give the answer to 3 sig figs.

They say when a speed skier goes by, the sound is like a thousand people all tearing apart velcro at the same time.

It very hard & icy snow, so a fall is rather significant.

[Blurredman]

i was gonna ask wtf is 243kph in mph.

[brindnp]

@Blurredman its about 151 mph

[Blurredman]

I work purely with Imperial even though this is Britain.

[fredefalk]

Did he fall over that edge at the end?

[MrOlimar]

the vibrations on that thing mustve been more intense than a vibrating rabbit toy

[AlpineRoute]

love the ass cam that starts at 0.36!

[xzxDragonForce]

xDD

[joe39cp]

Wow the whole time i was thinking fall fall fall AND he did =D

[Bucketheadhead]

Buddy that's not even the slightest bit funny. Sure people falling is usually hilarious, don't get me wrong, but that suit he's wearing is pure rubber to make him go as fast as possible. People who fall wearing in when skiing fast, have a lot of skin simply ripped off.

The worst I saw was in Les Arc where a guy fell half way down and lost a lot of skin.  He was screaming in agony and had to be air lifted to a hospital floating on a bed of air, as he could touch nothing for the pain.

[skicomedy]

ouch

[arising87]

lol...omg, that's nuts. that guy was flying! imagine if he wiped out at 0:22

whew!

[colombianocrew]

desenso exelente, que tecnica !!

[dfdgfdgf0000]

sounds like a jet !

[maxtiger2]

Amazing need for speed. The sport is dangerous.

[drowsy123]

lol i bet if i did that, halfway through i'd fly off the ground backwards.

XD

[71mmuussttaanngg]

i need that helmet for speed boarding dose someone know where to get one at

[eddygordo1988]

Someone know wher i able to get a speed ski suit in internet if anyone know please tell me.

[BeNwowidratherbe]

shit he slid like 150ft when he bailed..ouch

[nonzo24]

how steep or long is this hill..

and how many mph is 243 kph

[klfrance]

95% or 42/43° on the top, long = 2500 feet

Speed 151 mph

[luigicamp69]

@nonzo24 You have the internet.... use it!!

[chaser46111]

@nonzo24 150 mph

[Striker090589]

By Crazy You all of course mean Hilarious

[nickleus1977]

ok, is it just me, or did that look like maybe 90 km/h, tops?

[klfrance]

It's you ;-)

[MariusKobbel]

only you

[seanalexanderdurand]

@nickleus1977 everything looks slower on video.. watch a motorcycle race or something in real life then watch the same race on film. it always looks slower unless you speed it up.

[imguitarguy183]

he was ought to fall at that speed, too hard to control

[turik5225]

oh ok my bad

[klfrance]

It the 1997 record, like the name of the video, not the actuel record !

[furvert101]

@klfrance so... has the record been broken yet?

[klfrance]

@furvert101

The record is now 251 kph in 2006 by Simone Origone :

[turik5225]

thats not world record. the official WR was set by Simone Origone in 2006 and beat that.

[gamepowersportsoccer]

THAT was insane

[twinfred2]

Holy Fuck!

[nighthawk11105]

man, thats crazy

[BADMADMAXHOT]

naja lol eig aber des kann ich auch und ich würde mich net appacken

[eragon812]

naja so einfach is das net.. sonst würds ja jeder machen.. und wenn du da oben stehst wird deine hose sicher auch feucht.. ;-)

[FregOff]

Somebody Has a Death Wish! lol

[eveReady70plus]

ok, now that's what i'm talkin' about......balls to the wall! let's race sometime....oh yeah, RULIS79, idiot? what's your f--kin' excuse? it's the normal one's you got to worry about!

[PhilTakken]

[RULIS79]

AMAZING VIDEO,IDIOT

[rogerio011]

+1 :D

[iloveduncan11]

[TheTrikster]

lol

[viccosurfer]

you dont realise how fast he is going until he falls over lol

[MSCurtin]

the vibrations going through your legs would be intense.....

[TsarKazmThe99]

Well, at least he made it to the finish line.

QUDOS TO HIM.

[doobiebro555]

dude holy shit, he got fucked up at the end. still i give him props. he got some serious balls

[MoPar7055]

Did he get pretty f'ed up at the end?

[yrtos]

fo avoir de bonnes guiboles, sinon ça part en sucette à c'te vitesse

[nicozum]

siete fuori di testa!!!

[Qander1336]

freaking fast

[yuriTardet]

I saw a ski vid that stated that at that speed if you wipe, the lycra in the the slick suit actually can melt to your skin from the friction on the snow. That was like 10 yrs ago so that has probably been changed but still...BIG BALLS>

[nuuksoul5]

race you to the bottom! ;)

[zipperhead699]

i was there used to race on the circuit. It is steep as fuck. YOu are diong 200k by the time the rock on skiers left shows up

[liamurphy62]

i wanna put a lil jump at the end and see how high he gets.

[Stumpjumper14]

Sweet music...

[johnnybdifficult2]

I just want to know where to get that kick butt superhero speed suit.

[bearsfootball72]

what is that like 145 MPH?

[slaveofgils]

whats that first song name called?

[neilyoungster]

Song is "Peter Gunn"

[spotttty]

Cool.... gotta love the ass-cam!

[justapassinguy]

you don't really think hes going that fast until he crashes at end lol. nice work

[LaDarco]

that's crazyness... I know the woman who had the world record that same year, and i think it's really creazy...

[szlatmik]

We were there last week! This is realy very hard, we did that track too, but a litle bit slower:D very steep

[szlatmik]

[harriter88]

[dickowskiflowers]
