“Bubba’s World” is a 10-episode docu-reality series about the #1 motocross racer in the world, James “Bubba” Stewart. At age 23, he’s not only the highest paid rider in moto, but also the only African American to dominate in an all-white sport. James will do his best to rediscover his lost youth, make his own rules, satisfy some unattained dreams and discover how good it can be to be “Bubba.”
Best MTB vid I’ve ever seen!

Red Bull Stratos
Jan 22nd
From PopSci:
Felix Baumgartner’s plan: Float a balloon to 120,000 feet. Jump out. Break the sound barrier. Don’t die. Simple, right?
If Baumgartner, a world famous base jumper and skydiver, pulls off the feat, he’ll set the record for the world’s highest jump and become the first person to break the sound barrier with his body alone. During the jump, he’ll also collect data on how the human body reacts to a fall from such heights, which could be useful for planning orbital escape plans for future space tourists and astronauts.
Check the video below. Red Bull did a good job putting the video together. Red Bull is genius in its advertising with these huge stunts.
