I get that there are adrenaline junkies who can't seem to get that needed high without putting their safety in serious peril.  I understand them in concept, but don't get it.  I see no reason why anyone would ever want to skate board down a mountainous two-lane highway.  One bump, skid or fall and skater boy takes a high-speed dump with little to no padding to protect himself.   So this video from 2012 Buffalo Bill Downhill has pain written all over it.  Racers hits speeds of 40 m.p.h. on skate boards while cruising down 1.1 mile of black topped highway.  In this video a young lad, Ryan Vitale, is flying down the mountain road Saturday on a practice run when a deer pops out and runs in front him, making him lose his balance and go tumbling into the innocent deer!  Amazingly, Vitale did not break any bones!
