These guys must be utterly mental, note how he takes off at the bottom!

To be fair, I don't think the original posts linked to a video.

used to do a lot of white wqater kayaking myself, nothing quite to that scale but still.
watch the second guy as he hits the bottom, luckiest guy ever IMO, if he'd have been going any slower he'd have been sucked back in and be swimming before you could say "oh st"

Quality! Must have been quick to do that, and had mates stopping people coming up the escalator.

The 3rd guy looked like he really went airborne but the video cut off

I think I remember reading he was a scandinavian pro?

It is a bit of a repost, but a good one.

Visited Llyn Brianne about 10 days ago and although i was for people having a bit of fun on, after seeing it, it really is quite dangerous to do it. Right at the bottom of the slip are rocks, and the pictures don't do them justice.

Here are a couple of my pictures.

Thats mad!

Thanks for the pics, it gives a better perspective on the actual height of the beast!

it does look fun, but from the top it is quite daunting. i mean seriously daunting. if the rocks at the bottom weren't quite so close i'd say it would be a laugh, but they are so close to the bottom. also, there is a huge metal bar at the bottom which you have to get over. can't really see it in the pictures.
