Man Skates down Mammut at Tripsdrill!

No thanks, I prefer the comfort of a seat.

A Bar stool with wheels on The Ultimate, now there's an idea :p
 
This is the same guy who has skated down their other big rollercoaster at that park, and been on Top Gear racing Richard Hammond in an Aston Martin using roller blades and a jetpack.
 
This seems a bit iffy to me.

Just imagine what would happen if he were to fall over.

That is a very good point. At first, before I saw any pics od videos, I presumed he'd be held upright the same way wingwalkers are, but I couldn't see anything hold him up. If he were to fall, he would surely break his legs?

And he does seem to keep a very strong, stirdy position, even with all the forces from the helix's and drops.

Also, is there anything stopping his feet sliding about? (infront of one another?)
 
Saw a video of it on YouTube. It also shown a practice on some steel coaster. He did fall over. It looked nasty.

I would love to have a go of that, and am I right in saying he is the nutter from Top Gear who raced Hamster with jet powered skates?
 
That wouldbe interesting to see him do that on Maverick, Steel Hawg, or Mumbo Jumbo. Beyond vertical drop. Ha.
 
he should do it upside down on a inverted coaster like nemesis.
