THAT is INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
I wish there was a picture of the chase bike's speedo in the frame.
I wonder what the rider on the bike thought when the guy PASSED him?......
And it begs the ultimate question: WHY wear a helmet?
To make it easier to identify the body?
It sure wouldn't help if he hit something.

Well, at least he can't fall off that rig! 
He has got to be one strong dude, the forces involved in maneuvering around the turns or just slowing down have got to be huge! That takes brute strength, lots of endurance, and precise control. If he does not position his body just right and hold it steady he is going into the mountain or off it...

I love how he passed that guy! How fast was he going? It's kinda hard to tell, but the chase vehicle was able to keep up.

Ille be the first one to admit I dont have the brass to try that but it sure looks like fun. I was trying to gage his speed as he was going past fixed objects and I would guess he was around 50ish, Just my guess though and its worth what ya paid for it.

It's called a Roller Buggy Suit.
According to a guy in my office, it was featured at the end of the movie "Yes Man".

I'd be more willing to do this than I would be trying one of those bat-winged base jumping escapades .... it looks like a real kick in the pants but I don't think I have a big enough pair to try it !!

Its all fun until somebody gets hurt. Actually, like Shovelhead said "why wear a helmet". Guy is going to die if he smacks something (like a car). Still, as has been said, would be fun on a closed road.
