Skateboarder Jumps the Great Wall of China


This video is of skateboarder Danny Way, and his incredible jump over the Great Wall of China. It was the first jump over the wall without motorized assistance, and was achieved with the help of The Beijing Mega Ramp™, one of the biggest skateboarding structures ever built. He broke his ankle the day before while practicing, but still managed to jump over the wall not once, but four more times. He estimates he was going about 50 mph when he left the jump. He currently holds the world records for highest air out of a quarterpipe at 23-feet, 6-inches, and distance on a skateboard at 79-feet.
