Don't bother its media hyped up for a jump those fmxer's would do for warmup! They backflip gaps 4/5 times longer than that in competitions ffs.

complete waste of a tv slot, no more impressive than can be seen at our local moto-x track really. Wish there was some video of the double decker doing it

In the 1950s a double decker bus complete with passengers did have to make a jump for it as the bridge opened whilst it was crossing.

Was well worth the 30 seconds or so it took to watch it through Yahoo this morning, would have been a bit peed if I had watched a 30 minute T.V programme for it though.

Deeply unimpressive given what i've seen done elsewhere. A pretty location doesn't make it any more daring.

Not really even a good PR exercise for him. I've done better at 10 years of age.
