At first I thought damn,how's is he gonna get back down, then I though he has to go back up to get the sled, then I thought will they ever stop. I love a movie where you have to keep watching to see the outcome.

Did he jump down after the guy to try and help him? That's like suicide! I wish there was another video angle from the bottom of the hill, that guy was absolutely FLYING down the hill and super lucky he didn't start cartwheeling, that's where the bones start breaking.

They were a few guys at the top and maybe you mean't the guy who jumped in at the end of the video trying to rescue the sled, he was smart enough to stay down below. Sometimes there are easier ways to the top so the guys at the top may have taken a different route.

If you are not the first to go up a hillclimb like that the cut from the other sleds can really throw you off your chosen path I think thats what tossed him into the rocks. Hillclimbs are easier going up than coming back down, you cannot slow down if you drop off something like that you can have the track locked up and still go 70+mph on something that steep.

   Word.
Been snowmobiling out west. Going up is great, turning around and coming back down is zero fun at all. Its like your boat driver mashing the throttle and dragging you across the lake at 70mph on a slalom ski and you can't let go of the rope....

haha...I love how he kept chasing after it. It was like a game to see how many different ways he could think of to put himself at risk!
