Arc de Crazy Guy Makes His Jump

I just watched Robbie Madison make his jump at the replica Arc de Triomphe at Paris Las Vegas. I watched them building the ramps and preparing the jump earlier this week while I was in Vegas.

Robbie successfully completed his jump, though he probably broke his hand coming back down. We were also treated to two "F-bombs" broadcast live on ESPN, one from a crewman and one from Robbie himself. Oops.

Just as a side note, included in the broadcast was the scene as the ball dropped in New York where Bill and Hillary Clinton were involved in the festivities. As soon as the ball hit bottom Bill and Hillary hugged, and then started dancing. I almost lost my Togo's sandwich. It was certainly a made-for-TV moment.
