UNIVERsE will have a lot to answer for...

How many other people have been inspired to try everything on the video? I
shudder to think what my shins are going to look like in a few months, let alone
the state of my unicycles.

My congratulations to Dan, Adam and Kris. You guys managed to do all the things
that I had recently categorized as impossible, meaning I’ll have to go and learn
them now:-)

Everything?

How about jumping off the 10’ wall? Every time I imagine doing that, I hear the
appropriately chosen soundrack from the video that accompanies that shot:
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaugh!”

I think that’s about right.

I’ve already bent my rim and I haven’t even seen the movie! I’ve just seen the
movie files on the net and read about the moves on the newsgroup. Sadly now I’ve
got to wait until I fix my wheel before I can go crazy again. Maybe I could find
a pogo stick and get into cross training though :slight_smile:

I don’t know about trying EVERYTHING on it, that’s pretty intimidating to me
right now! But it sure opens your eyes to the possibilities. It’s made me think
about practicing a lot more, that’s for sure.

I just got this vid last week and have been pretty blown away by it. The stuff’s
so far beyond my ability it’s like watching someone from another planet. Just
when you think you’re improving a bit, you see something like this… <grin>

Seriously though, the production is excellent, the camera shots are great. Hats
off to Dan and Adam for a very professional production!

Did everyone noticed the “bonus” clip from the farm that comes on a minute or so
after the credits have finished running? I missed it the first couple of times
through the vid. That crash on the trash can looked pretty painful! <ouch>

Now…what I wanna know is… How many cameras were destroyed in the production
of this thing?

I enjoyed the vid. and found myself practicing a lot more as a newbie to the uni
I love the idea fo being able to pogo onto walls.

RE: UNIVERsE will have a lot to answer for…

Inspired? Yup indeedy :slight_smile:

My bearings now tell me they hate me by creaking and squeaking in a malicious
tone, I have some rather interesting flesh tones and I fear for my ability to
reproduce :wink:

I’ll second your congratulations to all in the video.
