Rollerman returns to his motorcycle beating ways in HD
The last time we wrote about Rollerman, YouTube didn't have HD videos. It was a blurry time. That's okay, because Jean-Yves Blondeau is back in his Rollerman suit strapped with dozens of inline skate wheels racing down places like the Swiss Alps at blistering speeds.
It isn't all fun and game for Blondeau, er, Rollerman. His suit might be capable of overtaking a motorcycle on the mountainside highway and delighting South Korean pedestrians, but donning the suit comes with its own share of injuries — like broken noses.
The Rollerman suits consists of 31 wheels that allow Blondeau to speed along at speeds of up to 70 miles per hour while going downhill.
According to his Wikipedia page, the Rollerman suit was created as apart of his graduation project in Paris. Blondeau's made six such suits — each with improvements — and has been featured on various commercials, two movies including Jim Carrey's Yes Man and in Stan Lee's Superhumans TV show.
Anybody else reminded of the PS2 game Kinetica?
