  2. Not a skater but did once attempt a long hill. When I got the death wobble I was able to bail into a suburban lawn without lacerations. My form was atrocious.

  3. To borrow a phrase from Dean Vernon Wormer in "Animal House," "face down into traffic on a two lane road is no way to go through life, son."

  4. He got off light. I'm more annoyed with the second video person encouraging such potentially disastrous behavior.

    The driver of the car that could have ended this jackassery would have to remember the accident for years afterwards.

  6. A kid went under a pickup on a skateboard in Odessa. The guy driving was an absolute Jakkass I went to school with. I heard it absolutely wrecked him.
    If something like that is so destructive to someone who had no problem with being cruel and mean as a kid, I can't imagine what it would do to a normal, empathetic person.
    I'll bet the sphincter clench when the Wobble hit was World record level Squeezey
