Ridiculousness Season 3 Episode 5 - Dana White
It's about Dana White..,and this is very funny episode..
ROB DYRDEK'S CAR KICKFLIP
The highlight reel of Rob Dyrdek's life just got another segment dedicated to death-defying stunt work. On Saturday morning at Southern California's Magic Mountain amusement park, the 37-year-old reality TV star and pro skateboarder buckled in for a 50-foot ramp-to-ramp jump in what he's dubbed the "kickflip car."
Cruising a modified 2012 Chevy Sonic at precisely 43 mph, Dyrdek launched from a wave-shaped takeoff ramp that pitched the car into a barrel roll, the vehicle's spiraling motion essentially duplicating the look of one of skateboarding's staple tricks, the kickflip. He touched down on the landing ramp with some impact, corrected his steering, burned some rubber and rolled away.
"I don't know if you can prepare for something like this," Dyrdek told ESPN earlier this month. "I did a bunch of random stunt training, like jumping out of windows and jumping off a roof. And I did jump the car and flipped it into [a landing pit of] boxes to get the feel of it. That in itself was scary."
Dyrdek was not the first to do the stunt. The Astro Spiral Jump, as it was called, made its public debut at the Houston Astrodome on Jan. 12, 1972, during the American Thrill Show, a stunt-heavy stadium spectacle promoted by race car driver Jay Milligan in the 1960s and '70s. The stunt made further headway into the American psyche a few years later as a brief but memorable scene in the James Bond feature film "The Man With the Golden Gun." The jump is also credited with being the first stunt calculated by computer modeling, according to IMDb.
Before the jump, Dyrdek said, "As with any major stunt I've done, any crazy sort of thing, I have to drift into this do-or-die mentality to execute it."
The car kickflip will be featured this spring during the Season 5 premier of Rob Dyrdek's "Fantasy Factory."

Nyjah Huston
THE BEST CONTEST STREET SKATEBOARDER
LOS ANGELES -- Nyjah Huston, the best contest street skateboarder in the world and maybe in history, entered the marquee event of Saturday's X Games docket as the undeniable favorite.
Finally healthy after a rib injury interrupted his X Games winning streak in June and kept him from competing in Munich, Huston qualified No. 1 on Friday and looked like his usual self in practice Saturday afternoon, calmly sticking trick after trick on a sweltering day downtown.
People like to talk about how every skateboarder on the Street League roster is capable of winning on the right day, but over the past two years, barring a royal miscue, Huston has become all but unbeatable.
So you could feel a twinge of unease in the crowd when Brazilian Luan Oliveira not only topped Huston in the first portion of Saturday's X Games final (Flow), but did it again in the second (Control). Going into the third and deciding stanza, the Impact section, Huston trailed Oliveira by four-tenths of a point. Not an insurmountable deficit, but a deficit nonetheless.
Then the 18-year-old with the wide receiver's build went to work. The laser gaze that has become Huston's trademark on course -- he looks like a cheetah homing in on an antelope -- suddenly took over, and he stuck his first four tricks. Oliveira, whose reward for holding the lead was to skate directly after Huston, fell on three of his four attempts during the same period.
"It's over!" exclaimed Huston's childhood friend, Edgar Barrera, who was watching on crutches after he broke his femur three weeks ago.
And so it was. Satisfied that the favorite had done what everyone expected him to do, Huston's five teenage buddies turned their attention to their smartphones.
Huston would increase his score once more with a 9.2 on his final trick -- a kickflip backside tailslide that he landed like his shoes were drawn to his skateboard deck by magnets -- to finish with 53 points. Chris Cole took silver, a distant 8.4 points back, and Oliveira held on for bronze with a 44.2.
Huston -- who has a tradition of taking his friends out for dinner "somewhere fancy," Barrera said, after his wins -- skated down the sideline high-fiving fans and relishing the moment. The feeling is becoming ever more familiar, but he refuted any notion that his result was a foregone conclusion.
"It definitely wasn't easy, and that's always the best feeling, when you actually come out with the win and there were people really close to you and they also [had] a chance to win," Huston said.
Part of Huston's appeal as an athlete is that while his performances might suggest otherwise, his celebrations remind you he's human. When he lands a particularly difficult trick, you often see him exhale and pat his stomach or pump his fists. Nothing is guaranteed in his mind, even if his rivals are running out of hope.
"He's just so comfortable on his board, man," said Torey Pudwill, who finished seventh Saturday. "Any time you see him skating, you can tell he's comfortable with the obstacle 100 percent. He doesn't get those nerves that everyone else gets. I don't know what's going on with that kid."
"He's just not scared," said Sean Malto, who edged out Huston for the 2011 Street League championship and watched this year's final from the stands. "And when you skate scary stuff and you don't have that fear of falling super hard, it's tough to get past somebody like that, you know? I think of the consequences sometimes, and I don't think he thinks of those things.
Ryan Decenzo, who finished fourth Saturday, said Huston's technical mastery of flip-in tricks to the course's biggest rail separated him from everyone else.
"That's a gnarly obstacle, so nobody else wants to try those kinds of tricks on it, because if you screw up you're going to flip on your head and it's going to be a brutal plan," Decenzo said.
Gary Johnson, one of Huston's buddies in the crowd, insisted he has never seen Huston rattled. To wit, after Saturday's contest, with his mom and his friends and interviewers from three countries all suddenly tugging on his time, Huston simply kept calm and carried on. It was marvelous to watch and listen to, even though he's an athlete who has been in the spotlight since he was 6.
If you believe Huston, perhaps his greatest talent isn't fearlessness but simply getting past the same dread that stifles his rivals. Or at least justifying the reward, as he did to perfection in the final.
"Every single flip-in trick on the out bar was so scary," Huston said. "I mean, one little mistake and you could seriously get hurt.
"But it's worth it."
