World Record Rollerblade Jump From Paris, France

I dunno, I guess this probably takes balls the size of churchbells, but it seems to me that you should have to land on your feet for it to be a world record.  Like anybody can do the crash landing, right?  Impress me and land on your wheels like a boss.  Just sayin'....

Here's An Attempt At A Death-Defying Stunt Of Epic Proportions

I can see the difficulty in trying to pull off this amazing, fantastic, death-defying three foot jump from one dumpster to the other. The weather conditions need to be just right, the wind below 10mph, the sneakers with the perfect tread. So if all this preparation went into the stunt, why not make sure the landing area could support your fat ass? Details, my little daredevils, details!

This Is Why Batman Had Such A Hard Time With The Penguin

When I was a kid, I always wondered why my favorite Superhero, Batman, ever even had the slightest bit of trouble with this stupid criminal. He just waddled along, wicked easy to catch, squawking at Bruce or Batman like he was king shit. I used to think to myself, "Turn this little tuxedo into a can of Starkist and move on to fight the hard asses like The Riddler and The Joker."

But now I understand what Batman was worried about. The Penguin has balls the size of church bells. He might not be the fastest, he might not be the strongest, he might not be the smartest, but he has cajones like you read about. You're a worthy foe after all, you dastardly evil-doer. Cunning, deceptive, coy, crafty, inriguing, shrewd, clever - okay, I'm done. Bang. Pay attention!

Does It Matter That This Dude Did The First Ever 360 Front Flip On A Motorcycle?

I have no idea what this means. I watch football, baseball, basketball and hockey. Is riding a motorcycle even a sport? 'Cause I seriously think I could do this if I had a motorcycle and a big foam pit for practicing.  Is this little stunt like breaking the 4-minute mile or runnin' a 4.2 forty yard dash? It's not even in a real competition or show or pageant or whatever you call a motorcycle meeting type thingy, right? Is this guy an athlete or just some gearhead hopped up on goofballs? Ridin' a bike is easy, right? I mean, he's got a helmet on and everything. Wouldn't it be more impressive if he did it while he was lit on fire? Or naked?  Or both?  So many questions, so little time....

Excellent Faceplant For Your Afternoon Viewing Pleasure

Like all stunts, it probably looked like a good idea in the planning stage. Like all stunts that end up here on the Speakeasy, the execution was sorely lacking. Keep trying world and we'll keep posting!

Ol' Man River, He Jes' Keeps Rollin' Along...

Just a little snow jumping fail to make you feel better about yourself this morning. Seeing other people do stupid, painful, awkward things is better than a 5-Hour Energy shot in the morning. It makes you think "Hey, at least I'm not that dude." My job might suck, my boss might suck, my life might be in ruins, the dude in the cube next to me smells like ass combined with sweaty feet, but at least I didn't just jump into a freezing cold river and get get my junk frozen off. Schadenfreude. It's good for the soul. Now go get 'em, Tiger!

First Sign Of Spring

Yup, when 400-pound dudes can jump off a dock and break the ice you know Spring is right around the corner. I'm ready. Enough of these videos of people throwing water in the air and watching it freeze. I need to start posting videos of people wearing way less clothes. Spring Break screw-ups coming soon to a blog near you. Pay attention!

Geronimo!

How exactly do you practice for this shit? What if you slip? What if you stub your toe on the ledge? What if a huge gust of wind decides to blow? And here's the thing, I couldn't tell but I don't think there was a lot of safety equipment on the ground between the two buildings. This guy has balls the size of churchbells! He's the Evel Knievel of buildings except he actually pulled it off without breaking every freakin' bone in his body. Have a cold one, my man, this Bud's for you!!!

Riding Out The Storm

World Record Snowmobile Jump - Wait, Where's The SNOW?
