Posting this cuz I know a few folks here have a MadAss (the bike, nothing to do with anatomy). Plus, it's pretty cool.
HHmmm.. Maybe it's not a MadAss. Still MadAss crazy.

OK, setting aside my acrophobia.... objectively speaking, this is not the most dangerous stunt in the world. The track between the rails looks to be pretty well-built, and there are emergency foot tracks with safety railings on either side, leaving plenty of room to fall without going over the edge. Still absotively posilutely nucking futs, but a lot safer than some of those goat-path edge-of-cliff videos one sees.

It's insane how much torque that bike has to be able to do backflips off tiny little jumps like that and he's just rolling along and twists the throttle when he hits the jump.
FYI, it's a trials bike, a type of dirt bike that's stripped down and has no seat. They're made for going over crazy terrain/obstacle courses, not racing, so they have lots of torque.
