Cool video of a couple of Redbull stuntmen in wingsuits flying through downtown Rio de Janeiro and around the Christ the Redeemer statue.  It's amazing how they thread between two skyscapers and then around the Christ the Redeemer statue, though one gets a little too close for comfort.  Amazing video.

LOL. Before I watched it I was thinking to myself, Rio is a poor choice to do something like that in because all of their power and telecom lines are above ground.

But in the end it was the statue they had to be careful of.   ;)

Hah!  A couple of your latest have been extremely lame, but that got a single loud gut laugh.  Thumbs up AckAck.

The last couple of ones have been lame?!?   :furious

The Japanese attacking the Chinese sub was a classic and the Rick Roll pure genius.
