So I understand people love to take risks for the rush of it and even walk that fine line between living and dying, but this fool is just insane. Talk about extreme sports! Personally, I think playing a poker game with Mother Nature is a bit twisted, you know that bitch WILL win out eventually.

Anyway, check out this crazy video of a snowboarder very willing to take that chance. This fool gets dropped off by a helicopter on top of some crazy steap mountain in some soft snow so he can board down, not once or twice, but over and over.

Thing thats just sickly nuts here, is that between him and the chopper, they keep starting an avalanche that he tries to race down the hill, that seems to be his thrill here. Luckily for him, in this video, the man beat the mother in the race…hmmm.

These guys who shot this video really have some big balls on them. Most people are driving away from it and running for cover, these guys whip out the video camera and start shooting tornado videos. Thumbs up to the insane, without them we would not have such great footage of roofs being torn off the buildings. I wish we had some flying cows to go with that twister.

This video starts out as some people playing ball, turns into one crazy game when a tornado kinda just lands on them, guess we’ll never know which team won.

This is kinda odd to see, fire tornado

Yes the list is out. The Blacksmith Institute’s list of the worst places to breathe in

World’s Worst
Polluted Places 2007

First place - Sumgayit, Azerbaijan

most polluted place on earth
most polluted place on earth

We may not be able to pronounce it, but it has the top spot of being “The most polluted place on the planet”,

Who needs air when they have synthetic rubber, chlorine, aluminium, detergents, and pesticides. While the factories remained fully operational, 70-120,000 tons of harmful emissions were released into the air annually. With the emphasis placed on maximum, low-cost production at the expense of environmental and occupational health and safety, industry has left the city heavily contaminated.

Their prize for such a “green” way of life is… A high percentage of babies are born premature, stillborn, and with genetic defects like downs syndrome, anencephaly, spina bifida, hydrocephalus, bone disease, and mutations such as club feet, cleft palate, and additional digits. Plus a 50% higher cancer rate yhen the norm.

way to go Sumgayit

In second place we have

Second Place - Linfen, China

where is is no such thing as a kid with a clean face due to the thier large coal usage

China, they take third place as well

Taking 4th and 5th place we have India

Where you two can get a clean sip of brownish water. And all this time I thought it was only Mexico we couldn’t drink the water in… silly me.

Number six La Oroya, Peru

The Andes are known for a few things blue skies and extreme lead content

but, look at this. The polluting mines are currently owned by the Missouri-based Doe Run Corporation, the plant has been largely responsible for the dangerously high lead levels found in children’s blood.

I guess the state of Missouri did not want the the shit in its back yard,

so… the American way is, to send our problems somewhere else!


Number Seven and Eight go to the same country Russia, The town names, no one can pronounce, Dzerzhinsk and Norilsk

Type of Pollutants: Chemicals and toxic byproducts, including Sarin, VX gas, etc. Also lead, phenols. Source of Pollution: Cold War-era chemical weapons manufacturing

where 300,000 tons of chemical waste were improperly disposed between 1930 and 1998 and 190 identified chemicals have been released into the groundwater. (I would drink lots of Vodka also with that type of water)

Guess they are still suffering the cold war effects over there in Dzerzhinsk and Norilsk

Coming in at number Nine, Chernobyl

the picture says is all

nuclear <a href=disaster aftermath and pollution" height="350" hspace="5" vspace="5" width="234" />

Number Ten Zambia

and yes, the name says it all… if you breathe, you may end up a zombie at that from all the lead.

So, one more time, Americans, take a breath of clean air and remember your country fights for a clean environment… mostly by shipping its pollution elsewhere, but hey… that is the American way!

I already showed this clip on another one of the Just Sick sites, but the clip is so good that it needs to be shared even more. I really have no idea of how to surf, how hard it is to stay up or anything like that… but this fool in this clip has balls of steel. I really gotta wonder if he knew the tidal wave was coming or not, but that poor MoFo rode that giant wave utill it crashed on top of him…. but then you see him still on the surfboard and he keeps going ’till it crashes on him again. Now after the second time the surfer got hit with the 50 foot tall gush of water, well we did not see him get up. Hope he is still alive and well.

maybe this should have been posted on wrecks">wrecks :|

Either way this courageous surfer should get some kind of Guiness book record… let me be so bold as to suggest a few here:

  • longest surf ride on a Tidal Wave
  • Still alive after riding the Tidal Wave (if he is)
  • Largest amount of water to crash on surfer
  • speed record for body hitting the beach sand
  • Going where no shark would dare
  • Balls bigger than brain (there may be too much competition for that record)
  • and… dumbfuck of the year
