Someone get on some racing skis and a suit and hit the nice big one. Or just get towed in on a snowmobile at like 80mph. It needs to happen.

Well since it was a probably a multi-million dollar investment and a huge undertaking by David Benedik, then you can surely expect it to be set up on www.yeahright.com so you can watch it for absolutley free.

Someone mentioned the biggest jump on record, and I thought back to something I had seen a while ago. I looked around for footage, couldnt find any, so I revived it.

Speech formed comes into a ball GAP session Wooaaahh... there powerful on Garmisch part churches to. After there will be no GAP1328-Camp in this summer unfortunately, trumpft at the foot of the train tip a new attraction up: The speech formed into a ball GAP session 2006..

WHEN: Saturday 11 March 2006 from 13 o'clock

ENTRANCE FREELY!!

Place of the events will be the ski leap stadium in part churches. Under the feather leadership of david Benedek and Christoph weaver, that responsibly appeared already for "91 Words for snow", it will be the goal to construct the largest entrenchment of all time - and to jump naturally also about that.

Airtime is named the magic word. At the same time it however also certainly should close why the 50,000 cubic meters snow is supposed to be constructed under with aid of the 12 loaded drivers (name follow) and peu a peu is supposed to be tested. Above on the Table, specially air pillows lie in order to enable also riskier leaps without danger for body and life.

By the way: 50,000 cubic meters, that 8000 lorry-loads are in something. To the comparison: Cubic meter art snow necessary altogether about 30,000 the legendary Battle in the Swedish Falun.
