Travis Pastrana makes record leap into the New Year, by point grinder

Travis Pastrana makes record leap into the New Year
By: point grinder

In Long Beach, Calif., New Year's revelers don’t have a ball that drops. But this year they did have action sports icon Travis Pastrana flying his rally car across Rainbow Harbor. Pastrana was the center attraction at this year’s Red Bull New Year No Limits event. He celebrated the arrival of 2010 by successfully shattering the old car-jumping record of 171 feet after launching his tiny Red Bull sedan off the Pine Street Pier going 90 mph. Pastrana officially flew his car 269 feet over the water before landing hard on a floating barge and skidding into a barricade that prevented him from going into the drink. The X-Games legend (9 gold medals) made his name in motocross, but Pastrana’s 450 HP Subaru WRX STI rally car has become his vehicle of choice. He’s also become one of the most renowned daredevils. When he was 18 years old he jumped his motorcycle into the Grand Canyon. A few years later he jumped out of a plane without a parachute. After spending months of trial and error in the desert training for this stunt, Pastrana thrilled the crowd by sticking the landing perfectly.
 
It was a long jump and all, but it wasn't that exciting to watch. Where were the explosions and scantly clad women?
 
pastrana is def. crazy..any of you watch nitro circus??
he will do anything..and must be great to have destroyed that car just for one jump
 
that looks like it would have been a hell of a lot of fun.
looks like he could have gone farther also.
 
I was gonna go back home to Long Beach and me, my son, and a few of my cousin's were gonna go watch but I got called into work :(

lol is he really mad? Or is it just a competition type 'mad'? Because at times Ken Block seems like he's autistic(sp?) or something so I can never tell if he's being serious or not lol.
 
they are friends.... so its the my friend beat me kinda mad... not serious. they are both nuts :)
 
i saw this on ESPN after the Virginia Tech vs Tennessee game. it was badass!! i think he could have gone farther...maybe even 300ft possibly.
