I sure as hell wouldn't have been the first one to try that... maybe 2nd. Once the theory has actually been tested and i know where i'm gonna land i'd probably do it too lol. I have dumber buddies to take the first run and discover design flaws.
I'm not thoroughly convinced that video was of "the first run". First, how did they figure out where to put the pool? Actually, more importantly, how did the guy in the gray shirt break his arm? Missed the pool, perhaps?
