Totally nuts. I can't help but think of the slow motion films of EK's 'offs' when he used to do that sort of thing.

         Absolutely AMAZING JUMP!!!! :o I mean, the Take off was great, the JUMP was under such control and the LANDING was great! It was like he was out for a walk in the park! :) It just seemed effortless, you know? ??? ;) Sure hope he can keep his all his jumps under such control. :-\ We've certainly seen E.K. have some pretty good mishaps.

                                 Later on, Bill :) ;)

Truthfully - he has no gonads - they went searching for them and found he had just grown two golf ball size lumps behind is ears......must have been a few hard landings - other than that his balls were definitley getting out of the way of his landing.......needless to say his brains were trying to retrieve his balls into a better protective space and look after his future gene pool......

I've got no idea what you just said Charlie..................  ??? ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Fuucking hell mate, you could get a job on US TV as an "Aussie Whisperer"! I'm glad that you correctly identified that Charlie was spouting off a mess of gibberish though, I guess I hadn't been drinking enough when I read it............  ;D

Well I must admit there is the odd bottle of stuff here and there - plus a few cases being constantly tested to ensure they are the right temperature............. ;D

Damn, I just tried to view that video, and it was removed because of some "violation of use" b.s. .
Is there any other link to this?  >:(

I like the way he had to start in the car park and swerve around a column during his run up! ;D
