From YouTube: Rolling down into Death Valley after about 16,500 miles on the road.

This is the safest way to go down a hill on a Pennyfarthing, as when you have the accident you go feet rather than face first onto the tarmac.
I completed the round the world journey in November 2008 after 2 1/2 years, 22,000 miles on the road, and having visited 25 countries.

Yeah, landing on your feet will be much safer, at least before the first 3 flips.

I think I would trust the dude who rode 22,000 miles on the thing rather than people who have never seen one, like, um, us.

Damn hipsters and their fixed gear bicycles!

At first I was all like, "wtf is penny farting?"

Then I was all like "oh."
