Dreamers HK: Skateboarder Dreams

http://cmestudio.wordpress.com/ We met these skateboarders trying out tricks and jumps outside (and on top of) one of the exits of the Admiralty MTR station in Hong Kong.

This video is part of a multi-media project called Dreamers.In this project, we look at the hopes and aspiration of Hong Kong people.

You can see our main video - Dreamers HK - here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29VxV0o1gVQ

We will be uploading more videos in the next couple of months.

The picture-in-picture shot of the skateboarding jump is from Magicman1010: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjqQfvHg-O4

For this jump, the skateboarder landed it on his last attempt. He was being shooed away by one of the workers in the park and he pleaded to be able to jump one last time.

@TheMagicman1010 Sure . . . but if you wait until Monday, I can send you a link to download the original mp4 file, so when you re-upload the video, the quality will be better (the file is at school).

@lawrencelai62 well good thing your not, because you'd be the biggest ass hole for doing that because of skateboarding, skateboarding is accepted slowly being accepted into society and a lot of people get in to trouble under unfair circumstances because of people with your attitude. don't judge people based on the public view of what they love.

I think that this boy is very brave. However, if I were his father, I would certainly punish him for his "braveness".
