^ Yeah, ok Evel. This kid was scared, and he went anyway and succeeded. An awesome lesson to learn when you are young and not made of as stern a stuff as yourself.

meh I knew it would not sound right. Oh well, but thanks to the self righteous dick police I now truly know. So, please forgive this poor sad excuse of a human.

Nothing to do with dick police, not everyone was created equal. Your original comment infers that his/her (whichever) achievement was not as significant because you were apparently fear free as a kid, as if that means anything. It's more impressive to do something in spite of being terrified than to do something that you do not fear. To try and drag down the achievements of a ~9 year old because you were apparently a pre teen He-Man is a cuntish thing to do.

Hear hear! Courage is never a lack of fear. It's functioning properly in the face of it.
Lack of fear usually is a symptom of stupidity or ignorance.


I would like to offer sincere apology to everyone. My conduct and comments were out of line and uncalled for. while I would like the use the excuse of a complete lack of sleep and having to working Saint Patrick day weekend and dealing with drunks and others I feel this would just be an excuse and does not pardon my conduct in the least. After sleeping for a good 15 hrs. getting up and over a large pot of coffee and rereading everything. I have found that I'm not immune to rabid stupidity and asinine logic. I can not stress enough my embarrassment over the entire situation.
Again, My Sincere Apologies to everyone.

Thank you.

made me remember my first attempt at paragliding

It's a magical moment when one transitions from heart-pounding terror to heart-pounding triumph.

Ok, I know this is not going to come across well but I'm not really that impressed with a 4th grader going down a ski jump. Between 2nd and 9th grade. I really did not know much fear. Really, none of the kids I hung out with did. Scraps, cuts and bruises were badges of we had fun. Hell at the little clinic/Doc's office in the area almost all of us knew the doctors and nurses on a first name bases. The 9th grade was the big learning experience. Misjudged a table top jump that went in to a 40 foot drop in to a bowl.(BMX) I personally do not remember what happened but what I was told is I clipped a tree, spun, bounced off several more, went through a heavy thicket of dead wood 30 something feet in to a dried up creek. I woke up 2 weeks later and was told I had had a compound fracture left arm, broken collar bone, punctured lung and broken ankle. I'll tell you I damn well learned to fear after that. But, then Got a car not to long after that and forgot everything had to learn fear again. Of course the hard way.

But the POV camera was cool.

Thanks dude!

Are we sure this is a girl and not a prepubescent boy?
Either way, thanks for revivifying my memories of learning to ski!

Actually, sounds more like a boy to me (a very brave boy).


I agree, I thought it was a little guy the whole time, but the original youtube title was "Girl takes ski jump for first time" or somesuch.

That happened to me once trying to ski-jump a snowboarder ramp. Except, there was a down ramp - I just over shot it by like ten feet.

Your video, Mountain biking off a ski jump, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

Archery. So boring, you probably didn't even know it was an olympic sport. It's also one of my all-time favourite sports to do, but I never invited anyone to my tournaments.>> ^conan:

is there any sport less interesting to watch than ski jump? biathlon maybe? even seeing a new world record being set is boring.
