Sickly stupid and stupidly sick. My helmet's off to the guys who have the balls and skills (er, mad ballz and mad skilz) to do that sh--. But what's the point in hurting yourself 22 times so that you don't get hurt on the 23rd? I guess I'm just not self-loathing or quasi-suicidal enough to do well at this, or standing on top of water towers in a thunderstorm, or juggling knives, or any other sport or activity in which the object is to do nothing more than defy death or serious injury. Damn, I'm old. Then again, I felt the same way when Kevin Ginther broke his leg in an early "hucking" experiment back in '72.
