    I would think someone would have to be on some serious painkillers to withstand that type thing through their skin.

    I don't really understand all the trying to defy some of the laws of nature stuff, if you want to prove you're better than God made you try walking on water.

    That would be quite the adrenaline rush. I'm not sure the reason for skin attachment. I hate to see where they may have had their gopro attached.

    Sure do ... one of my favorite Richard Harris movies! The sequel, "Return of a Man Called Horse" is not nearly as good.

    Oh, and BTW ... the guy's a **** IDIOT!
