I bet he is wearing a wetsuit below...
Considering the many kiters being dragged over the beach with the mouth full of sand, the guy in the video appears rather reasonable to me.

Seen a doco on tele about how the owner bought the company. He was on holidays in asia (forget the actual country) and saw this drink that the locals used to fix their ailments. Anyway he bought the rights to it and called it Red Bull.

Anyway what come out of it was, he DIDN'T CARE about what it tasted like (that wasn't important). It didn't make sense to me, then again, I don't run a multi billion $$$ company.

I've had a mouthfull of the stuff, but spat it out - not to my liking. Didn't buy the can, was given it. Just goes to show you what a great advertising company can do.

I think? I read ages ago about the owner being in Bangkok and was wondering how the taxi drivers could stay up all night whilst he was over there doing 'business'..... and it kind of took off from there. At least he sponsors windsurfers and kiters to do some rad stuff including these.

If you scroll down a bit on the 2nd link you can see head cam footage of flying off a mountain!

Literally... Cliff Diving World Series at Riverside Oaks Golf Course this weekend. At Cattai on the Hawkesbury River. Diving 27 metres from scaffolding... eight times each.

If it is your thing, Hawkesbury Courier suggest it is Saturday only, from 3pm. All the divers competed in last years London Olympics.
