Wow… That takes stones…
LONDON (Reuters) - A man who filmed himself skiing down the longest escalator on London’s underground rail network was branded “dangerous, stupid and irresponsible” on Wednesday.
The man hurtled down nearly 200 feet (60 metres) at Angel tube station with a camera strapped to his head and posted the video on the YouTube Web site.
The 60-second film shows the man climb the escalator, clip on his skis at the top and begin his high-speed descent as onlookers shout out behind him.
London Underground condemned the stunt.
“This is a dangerous, stupid and irresponsible act that could have resulted in serious injury or death to not only the individual concerned but also other passengers,” it said in a statement.
Wow… Thanks for clearing up the danger of the stunt.
But you have to admit… It’s pretty cool… Video below…
