We really love that the Russians and French continue to battle it out for the most extreme culture on Earth.  There really is a huge difference between these two extreme cultures:

Russians love to perform extreme acts via homemade, generally ghetto equipment and they outdo everyone in how ridiculous and unrepeatable their stunts are and we’re guessing that they likely die a lot

French love to perform extreme acts with top of the line gear and outdo everyone else in established “extreme sports” and we know they die a lot

This is ski bungee jumping is pure genius.  These Russians are still hitting their homemade bungee jump.  Now, they’ve decided it’s a good idea to hit this baby on skis.  Hell, it worked.

He did lose a ski tho, so does it count?
