Tough guy, beautiful reporter

nobody has said anything constructive. Instead of working to help this man, you people are just name calling someone who has original ideas.

you sir, are a waste of sperm. :D top that!

This dude, the british biker with 1 leg and 1 arm and athletes in the paraolympics are all inspirations .

These are the real heroes

how is it a bad idea? You can either put up ramps, or your make it go off curbs and stairs. It's the year 2010! ffs. we have rockets with tubing that is so tight that it wont let hydrogen atoms through between joints, but every winter we have pipes rupture and people boiled alive on the streets.

this mother fucker things outside the box, and doesnt baww, and oh he so brave, and such.

with out you i'm noting but a good idea. now get off your lazy ass and go to engineering school, faggot!

what an amazing and inspirational man.

You can bet the reason I have never heard of him before is because the West refuses to acknowledge any Russian feats.

He looks part Mongolian. No wonder he is so strong.
