He fractured 5 vertebrae last time he tried it, how does that give you the impression the risk involved in the stunt isn't that great?

I was comparing it to Robbie Madison's Stunt. Rhys Millen should've been dead were it not for the truck + cage + seatbelt/harnesses, instead, he was able to walk away from it. Had Robbie Madison missed came short of reaching the Arc de Triumphe, or missed the ramp on the way down, apart from a helmet, he's got no form of protection whatsoever.

I gotta give a whole lot more props to Robbie

Balls but zero skills, I guess that's why he just disapeared. He never landed that one too.
