Body Surfing Down a Road in the Swiss Alps

Body surf­ing is fun. Road rash isn’t.

This video fea­tures a man who is body surf­ing… inches from the road… down a very steep moun­tain… in the Swiss Alps… and he is pass­ing other motorists! I thought street luge was nuts, but that is just insane. One wrong move and you are either fly­ing off a cliff, peel­ing what’s left of your skin off the pave­ment, or being dis­em­bod­ied by a pass­ing car. I am truly amazed at how fluid and con­trolled his decent is. He appears to be able to turn on a dime, despite the awk­ward suit and the hair rais­ing speed.
