Can't believe they jump those things. Skip to about 3:00. Scary.

On a normal track they do all the jumps solo does. Larocco`s Leap would be a challenge, tho`.

Perhaps toughest job on Earth. See that dude in a #2 sidecar? That`s Kaspars Stupelis. He broke 3 ribs 3 weeks ago and raced the next GP just a week after. He said that was one of the toughest days of his life. They got 3rd place that day. Now 3 weeks later they won both moto`s easily.

This is him. One of the toughest dudes I`ve ever met.

That was awesome. I can't find the video but I remember watching a programme where a female TV presenter tried her hand at sidecarcross (passenger) She seemed pretty optimistic, but once the guy started tiddling around the track, within a minute she was screaming for him to stop Laughing
