Jean-Yves Blondeau (Aix les Bains, 1970 - ), also known as "Rollerman", is a French designer who is best known for creating the 31-wheel roller suit (Buggy Rollin'). This suit places a number of rollers (similar to those found on rollerblades) on most of the major joints, the torso, and the back. The wearer can ride in a variety of positions (rollerblade, on back, on torso, on all fours, etc.) at speeds of up to 60 mph (96 km/h). He has been featured on television shows in several countries.

That was cool!
I thought it was a kick seeing him pass that motorcycle... LOL... I’m sure the people saw him and said, “What the hell!” ... :-)
Probably a fun thing for a terminally ill person with nothing left to lose to do.
I couldn’t even DRIVE that road.
Am I the only one who’s developed a nasty fear of heights as he got older?
I doubt that he could do it without the music.

This ole’ man..
I believe people can change their minds even on very important issues. I would be much more comfortable; however, if Romney would explain just how, under what circumstances, and why he changed his mind on abortion. This kind of reversal is not something a person does on a whim so there should be a landmark, believable story for Romney’s decision to be heartfelt and not based on politics alone.
The problem is that media people don’t scratch below the surface and so the question has never been asked. I, for one, would like to hear that story or I would have a hard time believing Romney’s pro-life credentials.
Oh, personal disclaimer here, I was a Duncan Hunter supporter but didn’t have that choice in the Georgia GOP Primary and voted for Romney.
What the hell does that have to do with a guy rolling down a mountain on his face?
That was W-A-A-A-YYYYY Cool!
Great post!
Ha! That's funny, right there....
wackjob Ernest T. Bass used to roll down from the mountain once in a while too
Yeah for some reason they cut the passing of the first bike out. I guess the guy on the bike flipped out and had an accident. Hope not
a French designerI learn more about France every day. Back when, I used to think the Marseillaise was a sandwich spread for astronauts. /rimshot
Is that you Barney?
I am glad you (somebody) got the joke ;)..!
That looks like fun - wonder if you can get the suit in XXL?
