Plus, I'm gonna guess that you aren't from granite country in New England. The old quarries are FANTASTIC for stupid stunts once they fill up with water. Heck, we loose 3 or 4 kids a year to 'em! What fun!

]]> <![CDATA[Giant Slip-n-Slides Turn Into Huge Jumps, Make Me Miss the Summer]]> I'll add to the slo-mo/reverse bashing, but I'm going to blame the lame YouTube Flash player for not allowing the viewer to do what is a basic effect with a normal video file. I can't count the number of times I would have liked the option to slow down a video (even frame-by-frame things like crashes), but the crappy format that everyone is using on the web doesn't allow it. So, yeah, shame on the director for forcing the reverse on us here, but shame on YouTube more for cramming Flash further down our throats.

]]> <![CDATA[Giant Slip-n-Slides Turn Into Huge Jumps, Make Me Miss the Summer]]> Hmm, I wonder what would happen if you did the same thing in winter, but instead of jumping into water, you landed in a snowbank?

]]> <![CDATA[Giant Slip-n-Slides Turn Into Huge Jumps, Make Me Miss the Summer]]> :another obligatory bash in addition to the above ones:

whoever showed the -100% speed/reverse motion to the editor/moviemaker/final cut expressional should be slapped.

looks fun as hell though. too bad new england is a clusterfuck of rock walls and mini-mansions

]]> <![CDATA[Giant Slip-n-Slides Turn Into Huge Jumps, Make Me Miss the Summer]]> I saw a video of this a long time ago but it was called the Jackass Movie. ;)

Definitely inspiring though, if you're lucky enough to live near a lake.

That being said, those were some pretty crazy jumps.
