Robbie Maddison jumps over the Corinth Canal (w/video)

Robbie Maddison did another of his spectacular and breathtaking jumps and this time the Australian FMX star jumped over the Corinth Canal in Greece.
Maddison cleared the 85 mt canal that separates the Peloponnesian peninsula from the Greek mainland using special ramps and had to reach a speed 125 km/h with his Honda CR 500 to order to clear the jump.

Robbie Maddison said: “Overcoming fear, that’s always the hardest part.
Jumping across the Corinth Canal became a challenge I just could not resist.
This Jump involved the highest consequences I have faced so far.
I believe that sometimes you have to take risks in life to become wiser and facing a challenge like this will help get me ready for the next aim I will face in the future.

I am thrilled about managing to pull it off, as you know there is only one opportunity to get it right!”Another video after our jump.
