@Stargazer turned your phone on its side to capture your house burning?

[Nevorian]

[taniwharugby]

@MiketheSnow
I nearly stopped watching around 0:45... literally felt physically sick, and that's just from him wafting the camera around on the "moderate climb", not even the fucked up bi-cycling.
Shit like this, and even people doing standing somersaults and what-not... what gets me is that yeah, sure, they've got shit-tons of skill and confidence, and that makes it possible. But the shit-tons of skill and confidence comes with practice, and at some point - they had to have a first-go. And many fuck-ups. And fuck that.
In this one, at least he had the decency to show absolute fucking terror at around the 3:00 mark... he obviously was not confident in how to handle that bit.

@Tim she kept on running to leave the annoying collar far from her pups/kits/cubs.
@MiketheSnow that's amazing, I recently had a head over heels tumble down a minor rock/dirt face while hill running. Going down that hill on a bike must have been scary-as he says at the end of the vid.

@Stargazer What restaurant is that? I assume it's down the old West End near that Asian place on the corner?

@Victor-Meldrew The problem with that is that if you pronounce it correctly then it completely doesn't work.

[Stargazer]

@Nepia I didn't recognise it, but noticed the "Hutchinson's" on the window of the store across the street. I looked it up on Google maps, and I think the restaurant is Sazio Pasta Bar (215 Heretaunga St E).

Hmmm, is that end turning into a trendy (for Hastings) eating area?

If the travel bubble ever opens up I guess I can check it out.

@Stargazer It is Sazio. It's a pretty decent little restaurant to be fair. No fear of the area becoming trendy though, the Common Room is still a couple of doors away!

@Wairau I've done that, in the UK running on a trail with flint on it, slipped on a down hill section, 8 stitches in my hand.

[Wairau]

@taniwharugby ouch! I scraped my head, ankle, and after 3 weeks my thumb was sprained, is still stiff (x-rayed it, no fracture). I did some pull-ups yesterday And my achilles has been sore since then-I still had to run 30 minutes back with a niggle...
