    Not really funny, but I thought this was still the right place to post it
    This video made me think of Portal, didn't know those springshoes really existed xD And too bad that not everyone's as good with them as Chell :roll: This is probably one of those historical fail-scenes on live tv. In Holland we had a show called 'Ik wed dat ik het kan', which is similar to this one. Start at 4:05 to see what goes wrong.. I still think he did damn good though xD

    Edit: Appearantly you guys are more sadistic then I thought, so I can safely say.. WHAHAHAH, FAAAAAIL

    some infos to go with that clip:

    1) while the stunt may not have been the smartest thing to do, this show has been running for i believe 20 jears now (or at least REALLY long), always consists of these type of bets, and this was actually the very first time something like that happened. it is also one of the most popular shows in german TV.

    2) the guy doing the bet is/was a professional stuntman and even in that clip the gamemaster asks him to stop the bet if he thinks he might be in over his head, so the dude fully well knew the risks (he actually botched it once or twice in the final training already) and was just too pigheaded to admit he couldn't do it.

    3) the guy driving the car he went splat against? the dude's own father.

    4) they must have lost a ton of money on that show (which had just started), as they had scheduled performances by Phil Collins and Take That upcoming, and the wage for Otto Waalkes (sitting on the couch) can't have been cheap either.

    5) for those interested in the guys fate, he is now in intensive care and will remain there for several weeks, having suffered severe damage to his neck. if he will make a full recovery is not yet known, though first reports state that he will retain the use of his legs and lower body.

    Just seen this on dutch television... Oh well, even though he's a stuntman, there's always a risk involved and I guess he was unlucky that day... :p
