Last week I posted a crazy video from the Whistler 5000 Down Mountain Bike Race and this week we have even more footage from that event. I caught this video over at Adventure World Magazine earlier and they used the term “carnage” to describe the action. I couldn’t think of a better word, so I’m going to borrow it as well. This is wild definitely wild stuff and you wouldn’t catch me trying this, but I don’t mind watching someone else do it!

A friend lives in whistler and was at the Redbull DH race there. He said there were some nutty guys riding way too fast down the slope and many broken limbs from just being out of control. He said the actual trail part was the tamest.
