I was imagining the boat righting itself back up and watching him go flying.

Keel walk, now mast walk. Interesting way to check the antenna and lights at the mast head.

He must have a significant budget for suits.

Wonder if Hugo Boss would sponsor my Cockpit Sitting adventures?

I'm waiting for the video with the outtakes. Apparently his first jump from the top didn't go so well and he landed not so nicely. The outtakes for the keel walk were good. I think it's a fantastic video! Not that I'll be trying that anytime soon...

I'll have to try that.

I'm just wondering if it's worth trying on a 30 knot day to get my boat to heel over that far.

I think that's his next stunt. Stay tuned...

Well, imitation is supposed to be the sincerest form of flattery...

Can someone please explain... Why?

It's a PR marketing video.. There is no point, it's a "just because" video. Take it for what it is, a neat and cool stunt.

If you are asking that, you will not understand if it is explained to you.

He needs some diving lessons.

As I said in the other thread about this video, I find the whole thing sorta stupid.

If you like stunts, this pales in comparison to what people are out there doing these days. The fact that it incorporates a sailboat does nothing for me, as it has nothing to do with sailing at all. Someone like Shane McConkey knew how to impress.

I for one found it to be impressive...I must be easily impressed then since this "pales in comparison" to what others do.

Same here. It makes me think I could pull that off as well. Except I would not do head dive, just a standard 'legs first-bunghole tightly clenched' number.
