I met Mike Metzger and Brian Deegan and all those crazy bastards when they were still just racing supercross back in 1996 B4 the freestyle thing took off. They are pretty normal with some wild streaks in them. Deegan has a tatoo on the inside of his bottom lip..if I remember right it said "Determination" thats hardcore!!!

If you missed it go to www.expn.com and the video is all over the place. I rode dirt bikes for 10 years and what they do is insane. They balls it takes is hard to discribe until you been on a dirt bike and just thinking about doing a back flip makes my body hurt.

Carey Hart actually did the 1st backflip a couple years ago but didn't ride it out so it didn't really count. Now they have perfected it a bit.
