Holy cow my knees were trembling just watching that, what a nutter! I believe a full Police Scotland investigation is now taking place to find out who stole his boat :lol:

I actually struggled to watch some of that, even though I knew he would not tip off the edge. Some people can just control their fear better than others.

Mind you he is wearing a parachute......

It was the seal at 54 secs that took the boat....

Fantastic riding! Don't care much for the 1min+ of rowing at the start though! :P

Spectacular, not sure if I'm more impressed by his skills on bike or some of the views / scenery...

It's all excellent. Mountain Rescue going to have a fit with all the copycats trying to get their Halfords Apollos up there, mind you
