    Next week - the boys find only two pizzas and five burgers in the freezer, but go on to organize a rockin' party regardless.

    It may be fake but I still wouldn't bet against Usain Bolt doing it.

    From the organisations own website...
    At the :42 mark of the movie you’ll see the short clip of Hans walking next to the bridge (pictured below). Notice he’s beside it, not on it. The bridge was obviously there for some time before the video was made and is likely still there right now.

    The 42 mark.

    I'm not sure... I think I'd like to see it in a pool with a camera below the water level...
    There may be something under the water but a few times they sink sooner and look like they are over the same part of the lake...

    I'd like to see it done in a controlled situation with cameras...

    Yes. Repeated observations, slow motion, ooh ooh and a control test! Go science go.

    and girls in skimpy swim suits... to, um, minimize drag...
    They'll have to be fit of course as they'll have to run...
    The pool or tank will need need a shallow ramp into it rather than a ledge with a drop... I remember seeing one like that in Greece...

    We need some funding.

    Watch how he tends to run/jump off the side in most of them. Clear there was a platform under the water.
