TheColinChapman Bone fractures? Fuck, with that speed if you'd smash into something you'd be in pieces.. there is no such thing as bone fractures in that speed.. you will simply cease to exist if u hit anything
+Ben Dover I tried to google "Ben Dover speed skiing" and found no results. I am leaving this discussion, since I am not in the mood to feed self-righteous internet trolls. get a life.
In 1990 we lost Steve McKinney from Sqauw Valley . In 1979 he set the record 222 kilometers (124mph) back then that was Mach speed . I wish someone would post a vid of that run made in Chile .
I went 60 MPH at Solitude Ski resort in Utah 3 years ago on 165 cm Volant Genesis Skis... that was fun. When I was a kid on 205 cm Fischer Alu GS skis I would go over 70 MPH at Jay Peak,VT.
@kitohol steepness doesn't matter, simple physics says only height matters as you are converting potential energy to kinetic energy. The max speed (ignoring air resistance) is the square root of (2*height*acceleration due to gravity).
Omg youre so fckn ignorant...they go 250 km/h. you cant reach that speed with cool looking equipment. i bet you always care about looking fashioned at any sport but u cant exercise it properly haha man up
Crazy - bit like trying to cross the track at Silverstone during the GrandPrix... life expectancy zero... but wouldn't you just love to try (not Silverstone...)
You must be extremely still and balanced cuz if you twitch even the slightest at that speed the results could be fatal like rolling over and sliding down the rest of the mountain
Damn, thats fast.. Even a slightest mistake can be fatal with that speed. They deserve all respect
+Ben Dover as far as I can recall, the greatest thread in speed-skiing-accidents is/are not bone fractures, but burns due to frictional heat.

+Ben Dover if you do not believe me, ask some pros yourself.
TheColinChapman I am the Pro

Turns out, redbull gives you not only wings, but balls of steel...

@Fabbro perfettamente d’accordo
Grandissimi 'sti fratelli!!! ;-)
...e grandissima RedBull Italia a sponsorizzare anche i nostri campioniiiii!!!
Every original Red Bull video has this obligatory moment of someone drinking one of their drinks.
I love the triangles on their heads.

I can't take them seriously... Its like watching Dark Helmet on Skiis XD
had a ski lesson with this guy in Champoluc
è italiano
And I thought going just under half their speed felt terrifyingly fast!!! Bloody hell these guys are maniacs. Very impressive.
Thanks for the CC
FINALMENTE DEGLI ITALIANI IN UN VIDEO DELLA RED BULL!!
Have met Simone Origone in Champoluc, Cool as he was humble.
im going on march 2013 4 7 days but i LOVED YOUR SLIDE
I went 60 MPH at Solitude Ski resort in Utah 3 years ago on 165 cm Volant Genesis Skis... that was fun. When I was a kid on 205 cm Fischer Alu GS skis I would go over 70 MPH at Jay Peak,VT.
Bravi, bel video.
...and he represents Red Bull..what a champ.
great job!
VdA, Italia domina!
1:46 Trying to hide something?
大自然っていいね
amazing
man you are fast i will suscribe
This one time i went too fast. Got lost.
i ski this fast on rollerblades.
I wouldn't mind having me one of those speed suits, and a helmet!
@kitohol steepness doesn't matter, simple physics says only height matters as you are converting potential energy to kinetic energy. The max speed (ignoring air resistance) is the square root of (2*height*acceleration due to gravity).
Dredd on skiis!
nice helmets
The CC is in English, geniuses.
dope
wow!
@Snw91 yeah i know pretty awesome, can't wait for the first sponsors
Watch out we got a bad ass over here
No idea what he said, but Ill take his word for it.
found the new way of travailing !
Is this Red Bull"s International Channel? Translation maybe?
did anyone notice that the song for regular ordinary swedish meal time
Tip: watch the video in reverse and turn your screen upside down to watch it in English.
Thank me later
they should put like a 5 foot kicker at the end of it or something
spanish, italian, portuguese.... they are derived from latin, basically they sound the same
This is a serious question: Is there any sport red bull doesn't sponsor????
Those helmets are crazy
I'd like to see them hitting a kicker when reaching the highest speed :D
This is great and all, but is it really a good thing to be the FASTEST man? ;)
reminds me of Andy and Frank Schleck
That's what I call a red rocket.
o man how do i get one of those awesome suits .. i think it would really help with my snowboarding turns.
Its pretty much a wetsuit. It helps with turning, but mainly reduces drag. I use one fir spring skiing.
Yeah don't have subtitles, that's tight
do they work at Fukushima
subtitles wouldnt go a miss here
Dude there r subtitles
oh shit, crazy guys ;)
ahahaha grandissimo, e pare proprio che agli italiani il rispetto non sia mai dovuto..
Yeah yeah very impressive. Now hit a jump going that fast
251 kmh in MPH is 155 mph. thats pretty damn good for something that goes downhill and doesnt have wheels
how do they stop?
Time to call the orthodontist.
Where can I get a helmet like that?
@AndreLacourt sarà perchè siamo gli unici a competere per cose del genere?
Why do they need poles?
to slow down
to look sick
For balance
Subtitles plz?
imagine falling at that speed
My beer can do that....Hold me
aaaahh aaaah aaaah chooooooo oooh sh*t ( worlds biggest stack)
boppity boopi!
Looks like they're going to do a cleanup on mars
PRESS CC FOR CAPTIONS
whats the point of slow motion shots in this video? like isn't the point the show how fast there going?
im in Vars .. here is held world record 256 km/h ... today i've seen guy going 200km/h and he crashed ... both of his thigh bones broke..
beer can do that....hold I
크레이지 더 게임
i want that helmet!!
What was the speed?
They look like spacemen from a movie made in like the 80s
man your fast suscribe.
I'd like to see him stop.
leider nicht nur einige!
My Beer Can do this , Hold me .
translate, captions? i didn't understand anything..
takes balls to go down a hill faster than the top speed of a Z4, there is alot of balance involved aswell
I`m not sure if handbrake works here
0:47 lol that helmet on the right
They looked between their legs for their helmet design.
Omg youre so fckn ignorant...they go 250 km/h. you cant reach that speed with cool looking equipment. i bet you always care about looking fashioned at any sport but u cant exercise it properly haha man up
ThaBrowniePablo The suit is red. The suit. Is red.
Same thejoe
Feels like I'm wearing nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
ma perchè il video in italiano???
Crazy - bit like trying to cross the track at Silverstone during the GrandPrix... life expectancy zero... but wouldn't you just love to try (not Silverstone...)
Hit a 100ft park jump going that fast lol
Man, it looks like they got bell-ends on their heads. I can't take them seriously. XD
Well they can't take a man seriously who doesn't go fast enough to need a windshield on their face.
I used to be that fast, but then I took an arrow to the knee.
Those Italians, they're faster in everything.
makes em go faster.
Hm geile Lackanzüge :)
ok whers the beer??
@joo5033 still
from 250 kph that must be pretty hard to do
Yea Yow
240 is the regulation length I think
You must be extremely still and balanced cuz if you twitch even the slightest at that speed the results could be fatal like rolling over and sliding down the rest of the mountain
0:47 this looks so strange.
