Episode 11: CHOPPER JUMPER
Champion BMX rider Allan Cooke has stunned the world with his record-breaking jumps and over-the-top bike stunts. But now he wants to do the unthinkable: launch his bike onto the skid of a flying helicopter and come back down in one piece. To survive this perilous stunt, Allan will have to build a special quarter-pipe ramp that will put him in range of the helicopter's skids. On the way up, he'll have to punch through the hurricane-force downdraft of the helicopter while avoiding the rotor blades that create it. Once he's made contact with the chopper, he'll have to hit the ramp just right to make a safe landing. Allan's calculations must be precise, his concentration unshakeable, his timing perfect, and his aim dead-on. Anything less will spell disaster.

Episode 10: SNOWMOBILE BARREL ROLL
Jay Quinlan is one of the word's foremost freestyle snowmobilers, and the first person to backflip a snowmobile in competition. For that, Quinlan is revered in his sport — and his innovation and creativity on the snowmobile is unparalleled. Now, Jay wants to become the first person to successfully barrel-roll a snowmobile in midair. The physics of this stunt are extremely challenging. While he'll have plenty of forward momentum from his snowmobile and upward momentum from the ramp, he'll have to generate massive angular momentum with muscle strength alone. Since this has never been done before, no one knows exactly how to make it work. It will take lots of trial and error, and lots of painful crashes.

Episode 9: KITEBOARD ISLAND LEAP
Jason Slezak would like to execute the largest land gap ever attempted, ramp to ramp, on a kiteboard. He will approach the takeoff ramp at a high rate of speed in order to achieve the required height (approx. 30-40 feet) and distance necessary to clear an entire island, complete with trees and animals, all while flying over a camera to document this incredible feat. Jason will then have to land on a down ramp on the opposite side of the island. Adding to the difficulty of this stunt, Jason will have to estimate his landing as he will not be able to view the other side of the island from the takeoff ramp. Many factors such as wind speed and direction, wave size, his speed and position must work in unison for this stunt to be a success. The stunt requires the extraordinary ability to combine skills from a variety of disciplines, such as wakeboarding, surfing, sailing and flying, into one spectacular, unique act.

Episode 8: PARACHUTE DRAG RACE
Acclaimed as one of the world's top sky divers, Luigi Cani travels the world, breaking records and challenging gravity itself. Now, he wants to try an extremely dangerous stunt involving a high-performance parachute and a high-performance car. Luigi will jump out of a helicopter at 4,000 feet, then dive toward a sports car racing up to 70 mph. With pinpoint accuracy, Luigi will try to drop into the car, landing in the passenger seat. Pulling this off will take perfect timing and an enormous amount of precision and skill.

Episode 7: FASTEST NOSE WHEELIE
The current world record for the fastest nose wheelie on a motorcycle is held by European Gary Rothwell at 98 mph, set in spring 2002. Kane Friesen plans to destroy Rothwell's record. With the aid of the motorcycle suspension geniuses at Racetech Suspension in Corona, Calif., they will create a first-of-its-kind, solid CNC billet aluminum top triple tree (a triple clamp). The clamp will be designed to increase the trail of the motorcycle and, in turn, make the bike more stable in a nose wheelie. The increased stability should allow Kane to easily surpass the current world record in excess of 30 to 40 mph. Kane will aim to achieve approximately 125 mph while balanced on only the front wheel of his motorcycle. In order to achieve this goal he must first accelerate his 2006 Kawasaki Zx10R motorcycle to an astounding 145 to 150 mph and then jam the front brake hard enough to elevate the rear wheel off the ground — a feat that has never been done before, or even attempted at such a high speed.
