A This is a 2004 filer of Norwegian Kjell Petter Bruun practicing Tree-Ski-Jumping somewhere in southern Norway. The unofficial Norwegian Tree-Ski-Jumping Championships are, hopefully, being organized for the second time in the Hallingskarvet wilderness area, some 200 kilometers (125 miles) west of Oslo, Saturday, March 5, 2005.The jumpers will be aiming for the trees and the higher they land in the trees, the better their scores may be. The idea is to take flight from a mound of snow, fly through the air and land in a tree. To qualify as a completed jump, the skier has to hang onto the tree without falling to the ground.

Posthumous mentions to Sonny Bono and Michael Kennedy.

The true Trailblazers who gave their all before it was considered 'sport'.

OMG!!!! We must notify the Natural Resources Defense Council, Greenpeace, NOW, ACT-UP, ANSWER, and the rest of the crowd to immediately put a stop to this brutal mistreatment of poor defenseless trees!!! Can there be any better proof that man is the scourge of the Earth than this senseless violence against flora in the name of self-gratification? Oh, the Horror!!!
