Skating down a rollercoaster. |
German daredevil Dirk Auer established a new world
record when he raced down a 860-meter wood roller
coaster track in under a minute.
He maintained an average speed of 56 mph on custom
skates that he built himself: "After this
some of the sides were so high that at times I was
at 90 degrees and so it was very important to have
as much traction as possible. Luckily everything
went according to plan - it was a lot of fun."
Mr Auer, from Gross-Gerau near Frankfurt, is considered
to be the most extreme in-line skater in the world.
He already holds the world record for reaching speeds
of 190mph as he was dragged along behind a Porsche
GT2... |
