Video: Motorcycle Daredevil Jumps the Thames River

Robbie Maddison, an Australian daredevil, pulled off a pretty cool stunt earlier this week.  Using only a motorbike, the river Thames, the Tower Bridge, and the moral sponsorship support of Red BullTM it gives you wingsTM, Robbie Maddison… well, yeah, he jumped over the Thames on a motorcycle.  Also, there was a backflip.  At the end, he tore off his helmet, grabbed and kissed a grandma with full tongue, and yelled “F*ck you, sex slave traffickers!  Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in theaters NOW!!”  He then drank the sweet, deep drink that one can only conjure from a can of the Toro Rojo.  Video ATJ and good day to you!
