I saw that on TV a while ago. The guy survived, mostly scratched up, which is amazing, since his helmet flew off.

I forget his name though, but he was trying to set a speed record.

That was his second try going down that incline.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Geez, it took me forever to find the info. I'm usually better at searches... there's just so much, "This crazy guy demolishes himself hauling ass down this volcano." everywhere!

Mountain Bike World Speed Record Video

Eric Barone, who broke the world speed record for mountain biking...

Eric Barone, who broke the world speed record for mountain biking in Nov 4, 2001, tried to break it again by riding down Cerro Negro volcano in Nicaragua.

Seconds into his descent, Barone's bicycle snapped in two, hurtling the cyclist down the volcano.

"It looked as if there was a rock or something in the path that made the bicycle break in two," said one of Barone's assistants.

In 2001, Barone flew down the black slopes of Cerro Negro Volcano in Nicaragua at 130.43 kilometers per hour, exceeding his own old world record of 118 kilometers per hour, achieved in Hawaii in 1999.

I guess he was going about 170 km/hr ('bout 105 mph) when the bike busted.

Ah! Here's a better video, and they show him after the crash. It's in Japanese. http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...91478515007486

There's nowhere I can't reach.
