Remember that epic kayak drop I posted about yesterday? The one where paddler Pedro Oliva went over a 127-foot tall water fall in Brazil? Well now there is video of it, and it looks even crazier than it sounds. Check out the video below and try not to wet yourself.
Thanks for the vid GoBlog!
Updated: It appears that this isn’t from the new record breaking drop set a few days back, but was instead of kayaker Ed Lucero making a big drop of 31 meters (101 feet) a few years back. The video for the drop made a few days ago, which is actually 25+ feet higher, should be out soon, but this one isn’t a record any more.

Awhah?! That is rediculous.
That is insane! I was proud of myself for jumping off a 40 foot cliff.
40 foot cliff is nothing to sneeze at. I don’t think you could get me to do that!
But yeah, these kayak drops are nuts as well.
