  1. has anybody ever ridden a giraffe taken feet off while riding, fell
    foward, and landed on the pedals of a 20incher, (and landed it)(or
    attempted)

  2. Ouch.

    What I have seen is someone climb down from a giraffe while holding a
    20" in their hand, to ride away on the 20" without ever touching the
    floor. That was Jose Roman, and possibly one or two other people.

  3. search for "The_Swedish_Cycle_Act_extreme_cycling_WM9_150Kbps" file.

    Its 13.2mb, so i can't attach it or owt. Do u know another way of
    getting it to you?

    I got it from here somewhere. In it, one of the guys goes from an
    8footer to a 12 footer (or summat!).

    It's not exactly what you asked for but its good anyway!

    If I find it I'll post up the address.

  8. I've done that long ago, when I had less ambitions for the rest of my
    life, and when I had no camera. I did it from a 7' which I realy can't
    find anymore.

    Doing the opposite is easier. In the baja beach club in Barcelona is a
    Dutch guy named "'Jumping Eddy'
    (http://www.baja.nl/crew2.aspx?CrewID=41)" who -I've been told- does 5'
    to 6' to 7'. I met him a couple of times, but never saw him doing it.
