First, check out these photos of the largest skateboard ramp ever built:

He's expected to set at least two world records with the jump, longest jump (obviously), and fastest speed on a skateboard (on the way down the ramp). He'll possibly set the record for height as well. I mean, I'm scared of doing an ollie down some stairs, and look at this dude! He's insane.

Here's an article all about it: http://atimes.com/atimes/China/GG09Ad02.html
 
that's ****in crazy but sweet, hope he doesnt die lol
 
Pffft. Jumping it long-ways would be the ULTIMAXTREME.
 
10 bucks it's going to be a gibfest.
 
he's the skater who first successfully made the Leap of Faith I think.

I would piss my pants if it went half life style gibs

"2 skulls and chicken leg........?"

Succeed or fail, either way, it's going to be on ebaumsworld.
 
5 bucks say the mongols invade when it happens!

I had a strange feeling that's what it was going to be. I am dissapointed. :( To do that he would probably need to go fast enough to get into orbit for a bit... then re-enter..
 
Any self-respecting skateboarder can ascend into Orbit.

Haven't you played Tony Hawk 3?

Danny Ways next trick - Jump into orbit!

I heard he's making a ramp from the earth to the moon and plans to jump it! :eek:

lol
 
He does the ramp at record speeds, LAUCNHES....then parachuets, drops a few bombs on everyone, and flys away laughing while a jet comes behind him ready to swallow him in the engine.

Best Story Ever.
 
Been skateboarding for quite some time myself, and I think he'll do it. Extreme is what they sell on MTV, this is different (although I think this will be sold on MTV too). Oh well. Shoe sales will probably skyrocket (pardon the pun)
 
Homer did way better going almost across Springfield Gorge.
 
isnt the great wall of china only like 12 feet high?
 
Jumping over the great wall is nothing.

Jump over the grand canyon or mount everest... Then i'll be impressed.

Um, is it just me or is the ramp facing the wrong way... How is he supposed to go down that halfpipe and then launch off? He won't even be able to make it to the top of the long ramp.

Or am I not seeing this right.
You're not seeing it right. He goes down the ramp, up the half-pipe thingy, and then jumps over. If he was just going up a ramp, who would care?
 
Its nowhere as extreme as that guy who jumped out of a helicopter 40 or so feet in the air onto a skateboard ramp.
 
No, but it's more extreme than you or I will ever be.
 
The only way it could be more extreme is it he was jumping out of a crashing helicopter.

It's the same guy who is doing this
 
So he will go down the long side, jump up on the halfpipe, go back down and up over the long ramp, using momentum as a way of getting over the wall?

Extreme.
 
Yeah Danny Way has been setting big skating records for a while.
 
danny way holds the world record for the largets air, he is a legend :)
 
Anyone who said extreme in this thread is retarded. Except for me. Oh yesh.
 
it will be more extreme if soldiers will be shooting him and the wall shoul be on fire and hav a pool full whit piranhna at the end and the skatershould be in underwares whit a uncle sam's hat

now that extreme!!11
 
theyre just trying to figure out a better way to deliver some general tso's chicken to the other side of the wall.
