Snake Canyon. What would make you want to do this?
Were there ever any SUCCESSFUL gimmick jumps? I mean he jumped tractor trailers and crap like that, but what about these big jumps?

He did make a couple from what I saw on the video yesterday on SportsCenter, but as we all know his legend was made from his ability to live from all of those horrific crashes. He truly must have had sold his soul to the devil.

This guy was the man way back when. I had his stunt cycle wind up toy thing. Cool as hell - that thing would jump shit and do wheelies.

count me in. I had one as well. That would be a pretty cool thread. Posting pics of toys you had. I will never forget the day my grandmother talked me into getting Dark Tower rather than a handheld baseball game.
