    Why would anyone in their right mind ski off a cliff ?

    Sounds like he wanted to die.

    DUMB, DUMB, DUMB !!!!!!!

                  rmemeber it's not the fall that kills you ...it's that sudden STOP...Reminds me of roadrunner and coyote cartoons.

                    HAW! Of course, it's the risk that's actually the point to stuff like this. Wouldn't be a kick for the participant OR the spectators if it wasn't dangerous.

                      Was he famous?

                      I've never heard of him until this thread.

                        I guess at least he died doing something he loved.

                          That's what I say. He knew the risk and was an adrenaline junkie. It is sad, but not shocking or surprising. These guys live (and die) trying to cheat death, and this guy should have folded his last hand instead of betting everything.

                          I am not being heartless, I feel for his family and for him.
