      Excellent post. If you actually watch that Ski-ing down the escalator you can hear the Train Station police shouting just as he sets off...

       :D I thought it was some other commuters! I've now got a funny image of the Train Station police trying to catch up with him!
      The first thing I thought when I seen that clip was, I hope to god there's nobody getting on the escalator near the bottom....

      Mr Woo - Genius. Get him on at Anfield!  Loved Tiger's shot - it didn't look that difficult at first, until we saw the slope!

      One crazy 747 landing.
      Now be honest, would you stand on the beach and watch / film this ?, or even drive across the road ??

      I'd love to be sunbathing on the beach before reaching for the camcorder to film this, dead right!
      I'm surprised they're actually allowed to get that close to the planes or fly so close to the beach!  :o

      The airport is St Maarten in the the Caribbean, the smallest island in the world divided by 2 nations!
      I visited St Maarten on 24/12/04 during a 14 night Caribbean Xmas Cruise and went Scuba diving for 1hr!

      The runway view from the cockpit


      The airport view upon approach

      The view from directly below as the plane approaches!

      The blast from the engines as a plane takes off
      from Princess Juliana Airport, St Maarten.

      Mr Woo - Genius. Get him on at Anfield!
      Nikolai Kutsenko from the Ukrain holds the World record for juggling a regulation soccer ball for 24:30 hrs nonstop with feet, legs and head, without the ball ever touching the ground,
      on 6 Dec 1995 at Kiev.

      Loved Tiger's shot - it didn't look that difficult at first, until we saw the slope!
      Isn't it amazing? :o He must have felt on top of the world after that shot!

      Skipping - definitely a man's sport! (3mins 27secs)
      Incredible skill, agility and coordination but I still think skipping is for girls!

      And how to get down a mountain 2 miles up - the quick way (3mins 17secs)
      What posses people to try such crazy things? Unbelievable!

      Thanks for the replies guys!

      In light of the amazing incident at Heathrow where a pilot crash landed a Boeing 777 yesterday
      I have tried to find footage of the landing but as yet have found none.
      The 1st video is a news report of the incident and the rest are just various other planes landing in extreme situations.
