[Mr.Huck]

You had to love Eddy.

 

[Stickity]

jesus what the hell was going on with the commentators? it sounded like a clusterfuck right after he landed

 

[Ali_Dibden]

And also the classic 58m jump.

 

[theschneidler]

Those skis are so damn long

 

[-Otto-]

That guy is a hero!

 

[Rodigan]

Eddie was recently in a UK TV show called Splash which was basically a diving competition for celebrities. Needless to say he killed it on every dive and won the whole thing. The guys pretty old now but still has huge fucking balls.

 

[Mr.Huck]

That's sick. Stoked to hear that he's still doing crazy shit.

 

[Mr.Bishop]

That was a ridiculous jump...

 

[a_burger]

[Ali_Dibden]

That jump was disgracefully large!

[ScottyN]

Also the commentary sounds like the climax of euro porn. classic.
