From a homemade rocket to rope swing fails to high-stakes motorcycle disasters, here are six of the wildest stunts caught on camera gone wrong. As always, viewer discretion is advised.

Do you think the legacy of stunt performers overshadows the potential risks they take for their craft?
"Free Will" is something we all have tasted….. call it courage or something else but in the end you hopefully inspired good. GB ALL
I once ate Cap’n Crunch cereal with out of date milk.
Poor video show videos consistent with the story
Trust and control of his stupidity. These people who push their limits are not legends or hero's. They are just normal people who are truly dumb for thinking they are invincible… guess what you weren't and ask yourself was it truly worth the risk… your life. I have no pity for people who do these stupid stunt's.
Evel Knievel didn't die…. and there wasn't all this extra technology back then- they didn't even have electronic ignitions; you had it with just the points and change the condenser, they had magnetos but for some reason they ruled those out…
Evel Knievel just broke every bone in his body 10 times a piece.. but he lived to tell the tale and feel the pain for the rest of his life
"bones can fracture under stress when you fall from 600 ft" ?!!!!
are you a doctor?
you must be
I'm so glad you're telling us that if someone falls from 100 ft they get hurt… you're really enlightening the world with your YouTube program..
how long have you been a genius?
really Mr narrator!
a Sherman tank falling from a building would hit the ground harder than a feather!!!!
This stuff that you're saying is groundbreaking!
that must have took you lots of science school to figure that out and impart us to us so generously
the first guy is a moron
“Stay bold, and live brave.” Not an entirely vacuous philosophy. But tell me why? Bold against what? Brave for what? Hope in what? Courage exemplified for what reason? These questions matter, otherwise when these guys wipe out, who cares?
God's built in design "fear" saves countless lives. For those over riding this safety feature I hope you and Jesus have ot all worked out.
Terrible editing!
From mad Mike to flat Mike at least he proved that lol, these flat earthers need mental help.
Several of these "stunts" could have been done safely. Some of the people did not have the experience to do the stunt.The rope swing was obviously done by people who did not have the knowledge or skill to do some basic calculations. The wingsuit into the bridge was due to deviating from the original plan, at the last minute. I skydive and BASE jump and have taken myself off of certain jumps that did not sound like they were going to go awesome. I have chose to climb down off of objects due to not liking the wind conditions or the landing areas. They can be done safely. I have seen an interview with Jeb about the bridge incident. One of the things he said was that on the way to altitude in the plane, Dewayne made a comment something to the effect of, "what ever happens… dont worry, or dont be sad, or it will be ok." I dont recall exactly, but Jeb said at the time he did not know what to make of it. After the tragic incident Jeb realized, thats what he was talking about, that he was going to try and take a much more risky line. Stick to the plan. The rocket guy, Mad Mike, was obviously an amateur, and did not have an engineers understanding of the forces the engine would produce, or do enough testing to discover that the placement of his life saving parachute would be deployed and damaged on take off. Again home built AMATEUR, not a pro. I also ride and jump dirt bikes. I remember the jump over the pedestrian walk way when it happened and noticed the GIANT flag standing out and wondered why he was going through with the jump, specially cause it was a cross wind.
Not all of us thrill seekers have such a disregard the for safety in the hi risk activities we choose. But I tell most people who say what I do is dangerous, that LIFE is dangerous. People get killed on the highways all the time, for a ton of reasons, whether its DUI, or victim of DUI, some ass hat texting and driving kills somebody, yet none of the keyboard warriors commenting on this thread, drives by an accident, then pulls over and gets out of their car and says, "Im never driving again."
Why risk it ?
Ha, I forgot all about the flat earth äŝšĥọľē who ate śĥiț in his homemade rocket. Good riddnace. If only the rest of them fillowed suit.
I’m quite happy being boring and hopefully live a long life with my family 😊
🤡💰🙉🙈🙊💀🤡
He was a surgeon, he should have hired an Engineer to design his apparatus.
Kyles last words, "hold my beer and watch this"
He did bot gragiate 6th grade, was not good a ciphering and gesintoos
11 days ago? I saw this about 11 month ago!
Their so called mates egg them on. If I was their friend I'd say no. Don't do it
Is it so awesome or just plain stupid? I don't admire them and don't feel sorry for their mishaps.
Mike was already showing his mental health issues were damaging for his physical health
I have no problem with dying. We are all going to die some day and dying doing something you love and is your passion is a choice. Pushing the danger limits we all know one day we are going to die. Not pass, or pass on, or pass away but due. Die is not a dirty word.
Mad Mike survived the first fall only to strap rockets to his legs to try another flight. Both his legs were blown to smithereens!
Wu Yongning landed on a Chinese restaurant and ordered some chicken chow mein before he passed.
Everyone of the first Arch jumpers should have been arrested for damaging the rock.
What is surprising is that he thought the world was flat 😳 I never understood when people say that they died doing what they loved. I’m sure they would have sooner lived a longer life than died doing the stunts 😢
Darwin finalists.
😂😂😂😂
IM SORRY BUT I don't feel sorry for STUPID PEOPLE WHO DO DUMB SHIT !!
You take the risk you pay the price. I've zero sympathy for any of these examples. Stupidity at its height. Excuse the pun.
Sorry, I could only watch a few seconds of the video. Cannot stand the overly dramatic cheap novel commentary. Just speak normally dude.
Catherine Destiville swung on that arch.
She did a documentary about climbing in that area.
Anyone else notice that's exactly what happen to Evil Knievel's rocket? It too was steam powered and the chute opened early. Lucky for Evil the chute didn't tear away. Thrill seekers or glory seekers. Would these people do these stunts if no one was around to see it?
I love watching people earn their Darwin awards.
I hope i go out
Goon'ngorFapp'NPS. Bundy Rope man didn't die in vain. I got a big kick out of it/… PPS He did not make a small mistake as the narrator reported. Facts only please.
I can't do anything to stop you from being/becoming a weekend warrior. But don't be a weekend physicist either. Have one on hand next time, or hire one. Any physicist could have warned you about the correct stretching/spring properties of the rope or bundgy cord, etc. One could be informed all the safety distances needed if a correct surveyor at the base should pre–measure to begin with, etc. Conclusion, Never be an unlicensed weekend physicist. It could get you killed.
More balls than brains…
You forgot Mrs. Fletcher and her, "I've fallen, and I can't get up" statement …
I heard that Mad Mike did not actually believe the earth was flat. It was for publicity.
My friend, Felix, is an unwavering,fearless daredevil. Felix doesn't use any gear or safety equipment, He never listens. He regularly spends time on the roof, tree tops, and can be seen making breathtaking jumps. His acrobatic agility is unparalleled. When Felix isn't performing daredevil stunts,he enjoys fancy feast, long naps during the day and chasing anything that moves.
"It's a heartbreaking outcome that none of them could have anticipated", The understanding of the marks on a tape measure might have helped with that. 🤷🏼♂️
A great gymnast, a great base jumper, but a horrible fabricator. 😉
Stupid is as stupid does
Stupid pranks
