You're not too old Abe- you can't use that as an excuse! 
I certainly don't and I've got a few birthday cakes on you!

Just watched a downloaded copy of that vid.  It's a real melange of shots, but every scene is astonishing.  Not a ride for the faint-hearted!!!

He came off at least twice that he shows.  There were a lot of places where it would have been fatal to come off.
