I’m going to show you the craziest sports you can do on ice or snow let’s talk about that good mythical morning I trust that you’re enjoying the festivities over in Sochi seeing professional athletes compete for medals of all sorts of kinds well you know that there are a lot of that’s pretty good let’s do a falling down the mountain that’s what I was trying but then you’re starting to come back up lucky bounced like a trampoline coming back up the ski lift there’s a lot of conventional winter sports but there’s a lot of unconventional unofficial winter sports they haven’t become officially recognized who are these candidates they should be maybe this episode will cause these to be recognized officially let’s start with a death-defying one many of these are death-defying speed flying okay pretty self-explanatory here you’ve got people who are have a parachute like a glider sort of situation and also skis yeah and they are skiing down the side of a mountain in this is not like a resort situation this is like the side of a mountain where there are rocks and they just jump over them it way it looks like at any moment there could be a knock outcropping that could just well take you out well maybe that explains of why nine people died last year doing this really yeah and say this up so I was like I’m going along on the side of the mountain and sure yeah maybe I’ll just go off the side of the mountain that this is something that you cannot do on regular skis you have to have the parachute though but you can do it once on just a pair of ski right so if you’re dating a speed flier don’t get too attached wow that’s crazy alright there’s more where that came from Elin that’s what I’m gonna be saying a lot in this episode that’s crazy ski bobbing again this one’s pretty simple this is taking a bicycle frame and putting skis on it oh my goodness and getting hurt my god doesn’t like he’s gonna get up anytime soon I don’t know like a basketball I mean that doesn’t like it does not look like a basketball you correct sir that doesn’t like a bicycle frame it looks like a weird piece of QVC exercise equipment that my mom would never use but purchased with good intention so the thing I notice about this is that there’s just something distinctly redneck about sitting on something that’s moving real fast I don’t know what it is I don’t think this is ever going to make it as an actual winter sport right and I think that’s the working definition of a redneck is someone who sits on something takes to the air and then starts to fill out flail about okay well it gets it even it gets a little more redneck it gets it even gets a little redneck this is scheduling this is a winter sport where people are pulled it actually started by people being pulled by animals like horses but somebody quickly figured out it would be more fun to be pulled by motorized vehicles this is archival footage from 1955 yeah this this happened in 1955 and at the time it was apparently considered the world’s most dangerous sport because that’s the name of this video well not only are you moving at the speed of a vehicle but you could be hit by another vehicle at any moment yeah I would assume some people have died from this and I personally I would do this but I would insist on driving I might do it but I wouldn’t do it with other people on a track that seems to be the craziest part about you want to do I’ll Drive me yeah I’ll be pulled behind a car how about this shovel racing there it is it’s exactly what I expected it to be it’s just a dude straddling a shovel and going down a ski slope yeah yeah uh-huh and actually this started in New Mexico ski resorts in the 1970s where the employees would use the shovels to get down the mountain faster because they were like shoveling snow and they would just get into the get onto the shovel and go down and now it’s sort of an unofficial sport they do racing competitions well it’s it’s a little bit unfortunate where the shovel handle is you know it it seems to are you a shovel racer you’re just happy to see me exactly okay I’ve got a few more unconventional winter sports for you but as you know we are inventing our own unconventional winter sports Southern California versions of conventional winter sports as part of the winter sport spectacular here on YouTube is time for another one what’s your name Bob that’s convenient how’s that for you Bob there that’s good really yeah it’s okay okay yeah we could find another Bob yeah that was a quarter right guys be sure to watch the winter sports spectacular video featuring Kevin Hart we will link to that at the back of this episode and in the description okay ice surfing this is just what it sounds like you know wind surfing right well you can do that on a frozen lake now this one compared to a lot of the other ones it seems pretty lame I mean this at least this guy go around in circles Hey look cameraman I can circle you this is not exactly an extreme sport this is like something that your coworker invites you to and then you’re like yeah I went with Darrell this weekend I surf and I’m not going back what else do you have well I could see that this could get pretty dangerous if you got up to the reported speeds of 70 miles per hour that would get pretty interest really or if you hit a big ice fishing hole now this one this one’s phenomenal this is they have a big competition up on the st. Lawrence River this is ice canoeing now this got started it wasn’t a sport it was just so phenomenal why does it only have 188 views well because you know I mean just it’s not it’s underappreciated okay so when you get to the water you have to start rowing and then when you get to the ice you get back out of the boat so pushing it like a slight stroke stroke up walk walk and this was not a sport originally this was just a way for people to get across the st. Lawrence River and tell me like hook whoa hold on we can go faster than those guys trying to get the beaver pelts across the river mm-hmm and then the next thing you know you got a sport I think this would also be very useful for like rescuing dogs that have fallen to the ice you see those youtube videos where there’s a dog that fell through the eisenerz a guy like I’m on there on his belly he just needs to do this and it would be okay uh but that has nothing absolutely nothing on snow kayaking which is also a boating sport now this is something that I could think up in my mind okay really yeah I made you know snow plus kayak equals snow kayaking you did equals instant death well you could easily see how this got started two guys you know on vacation in the mountains yeah hey man don’t you have a kayak as a matter of fact I do and it’s poised at the top of this mountain I mean just think about it you see these people going over these waterfalls and stuff why can’t you just do that at the top of a mountain this is pretty turns out you can how did they get two kayaks up there what I mean they don’t let you do this in resorts oh no this is not recommended or allowed at most resorts they pull them up there by a stream you can actually see that right here see he’s hauling the kayak up so this is this is probably not worth it all the time the investment up front but there you go you can have some fun with your friends and you know slip a disc in the process okay if you think there’s anything crazier that you can do on ice or snow let us know in the comments link to a video or something and we’ll let you know whether or not you’re right or wrong you know what time it is hi I’m Jack this is Martha London England and it’s time to spin the wheel of a for Kevin you need shoes and we sell them they’re called the mythical shoes we’ve got the pink ones we’ve got the mythical 2.0 we’ve got the mythical 1.0 they’ve got inserts guitar picks we’ve got your dream ever wear them to Mars we don’t care I don’t think I comps I store click through the end of this video to figure out why people do these crazy sports we know these psychologically link needs a bathroom break oh man just stick around first I get here though we need to finish this episode ok mmm listen you need to hide it look what would hide it a little bit behind what I just I can tell if you need to pee I have children I really need to go yeah look but don’t you listen just know let it stretch let the bladder stretch let the bladder stretch because then you’ll get better at holding it okay yeah don’t make that face you know try to relax your face a little bit okay bring your shoulders back relax relax to face a little bit uncross the legs uh-oh what’s that smell when Verizon asked me to cover the winners sporting events in Russia this year I said do I look like I belong in Russia I mean Russia is in Russian let me taste out of my Russian it shrivel up cold out there
