Dave, have a check for the program about making the video. It might still be on BBC1 player... Well worth watching.

Hi Dean
Have a copy of it, but thought it was worth passing it round.
Presume that's the rideout on GMVIII ? ;)

shh, don't need everyone to know just yet. Certainly more chance of it being rideable than the Rest and Be Thankful.

Superb.
Having been up there a few times, I can confirm he is a bit mad even considering half those stunts. There's no room for errors. Amanda always said he wouldn't ever amount to much, bmxing (literally) over dunvegan in his yoof, lol.
Great showcase for the island tho. Must do a Cuillin next year. 8-)
Watched this, thought it was amazing really. Not just his stunts but the landscape, said to the missus after that we are doing a few days in Skye next year. Just hope my knee is fixed in time!...

When you see the out takes and appreciate how often his stunts don't quite come off, he's even braver/madder than you think. Which is very brave/mad indeed!
Hope the Scottish Tourist Board are seeing him right for a few quid by the way.
If anyone does fancy a group hike up a Cuillin, I can highly recommend the guys he went up with. I can get contact numbers if need be.
Maybe we could do an Org event around it. Bike-up/Hike-up/Pish-up. In that order.
I would certainly be up for a group effort, I can foresee a few doing the bike up/pish up parts and accidentally forgetting about the hike up part :)

Some kid. Brilliant film. I winced more though when you see him riding along a 6ft high iron railed fence. Ugh!
What a show-off for Skye too.
Read his list of injuries somewhere and they are horrendous. Hopefully he is coining in the bucks so he can live somewhere hot in his later years as he'll not be able to get off his couch!

Better make it quick, Murdo, I'm too old already for that kind of stunt!
In the interests of balanced journalism, did anyone see the Bear Grylls and Ben Stiller program on c4?
Not wishing to put anyone off, but the weather today here was like they experienced at 2000ft. Only much worse lol
Anyone for smoked gritty limpets in wild garlic with a briny jus?

Watched it last night. Hilarious. "WTF Am I doing" and "I could die right now" written all over Mr Stillers face throughout. Recommended! Would not fancy the dip at the end.

Just watched it, wasn't as good as I hoped, but still entertaining.
Big up for him jumping in the drink, I agree with you Stramasher
