    - Agree with previous comments also. Yes reckless, yes dangerous, yes bad to do in heavy traffic etc etc

    - Agree that it's an insane video and am impressed he has the skills to pull it off. That's some tight riding.

    - Am one of the few who can safely say I could pull that off in GTA. I held several records for a good number of years on a GTA-VC enthusiast forum for PCJ-600 laps of the Vice city races, especially the endurance race across the whole city. You'll see lots of 3:58's for the VC endurance race on Youtube raced on the PCJ-600... my record was 3:55. All recorded and stored on my server somewhere, I might look them out some time and re-upload 'em. I can ride the same in GTA IV although I don't know about records etc.

    Whilst that's a very nice bit of machining and all... WHY AREN'T THEY USING COOLANT?! My heart goes out to those endmills and bits :/

    Video comments on Youtube state that's a Mikron HSM-600.... drool tbh. Very nice bit of machinery, although I still maintain that Dugard manufacture the best 5 axis CNC mills in the world ;)

    Brix were shat :jawdrop:

    That's incredible... I had no idea that was even possible :eeek:

    I want a ride in that thing so badly :D Looks like SO much fun!

    The guy was fatter than I am but I still can't believe I could ever do this. I just can't picture myself being in good shape.

    Weird huh

    Well at the moment I need to lose about a stone - I'm 16 & 1/4 stone, 6'4" at the moment, and would like to be about 15-15.5. Trouble is I've ran in the winter months before and my knee gets extremely sore, much worse and much faster than when it's slightly warmer. I dunno, maybe I just need to take more painkillers, suck it up and go for it :rolleyes:

    Well done to that man! I need to get cycling again, could gladly lose a stone. Hell, I'd be happy to replace the stone with muscle instead of fat. Weight hasn't changed much since I got back from the army, just what it's made up of :D

    Anyway, here's some Zeds...

    Tried wearing a knee support or changing your shoes? Damaged my knee in a motorbike accident some years ago. Subsequently found when hiking the usual ten or twenty miles, tissue around the joint would swell and bruising would appear. Dad suggested I change my shoes to a pair of lightweight Meindl's which helped enormously.

    probably because the coolant make it hard to see the work in action. sometimes its worth burning up a few bits to show off :naughty:

    im curious why the r/c plane guys didnt just land vertically though. those planes are perfectly capable of hovering. seems to me like zero ground speed would equate to minimal damage...:confused:
