Finally done it!

Randy Metzger not only jumped the fountain at Caesars Palace (where Evel Knievel and Gary Wells almost killed themselves trying it) but he pulled off the 125-foot jump while doing a *back flip.*

He may have done a backflip, but would he try it on a basicaly stock Harley like Evil Knievel did? That's a crazy jump, but with all the X-games, freestyle motocross jumping, and so forth it's not as impressive as it should be.

Perhaps you should try it sometime. Then you might be impressed.

That's not how I meant it. It is impressive, but turn on any of the 30 ESPN stations and you can see someone doing a backflip on a dirtbike. The first backflip was done in 2002 back then only a few people had even tried to do it now almost every rider does them. I think the backflip is just kind of played out.
