Travis Pastrana
If you dont know who I am talking about have a look on Youtube at his double backflip and new year jump.
He is an utter genius and probably the top sportsman in the world for me.

He is pretty special, did anyone see the top gear episode of Ken Block (us rally driver)?
Ignore the music, just amazing to see what this guy can do.

That one is no way better than the car jump and if I knew how to embed I would post it

all you've got to do is paste the youtube embed code (top of the right hand column on youtube) in to the comment field and bish! bash! bosh!
and I'm still saying the tricycle is better… he's even wearing a suit!

when he jumps in at the end and you see how far he's jumped the car... that's pretty impressive.
still prefer the trike backflip though

The monster truck backflip could've been pretty special if he'd pulled it off. Although it seems as though they've deleted all the high-quality versions of the vid from youtube.
