Hows it anymore dangerous than being struck by a car?

Knowledge dispels fear and those guys knew what they were doing and accept the risks.

I may be wrong but I think that you would stand a greater change of survival being hit be a car than you would falling off that ridge.

I was thinking about that clip Colin when watching the 1st one... fortunately he wasn't badly injured.

It's the type of cycling which certainly justifies helmet use!

Although - and there was quite a bit of discussion at the time - his helmet was completely unscathed so made no difference. A few people though were nevertheless convinced it saved his life.

I was thinking that too. You ^may^ get killed being hit by a car.........but if you fell off that ridge (at certain points anyhow) then I think you'd almost certainly die....(maybe, imo)
