Hey, Blog Guy! We’re five days into 2009 and you haven’t mentioned any signs of the coming Apocalypse. Does that mean we’re safe?
No, it just means I’m backed up. Here’s a clip of Motorcross rider Robbie Maddison ringing in the New Year with a spectacular jump in Las Vegas.
He catapulted off a ramp to the top of a 100-foot replica of the Arc de Triomph, and then he jumped off the replica, plunging 85 feet in a free-fall before landing on a ramp.
If you’re like I am about heights, this video will make you barf on your keyboard.
Ah, and you think the fact that somebody would do that jump is a genuine sign of the Apocalypse?
Are you crazy? No! I think just BUILDING a 100-foot replica of the Arc de Triomph in Las Vegas is a clear enough sign!

Posh Robert! There you go, getting all excited about cheezy CGI. Where are your standards?
