No way: skater soars over Great Wall of China? Way! CHINA - Skateboarder Danny Way has rolled his way into history. He's the first person to jump across the Great Wall of China without any motorized aid.
According to sponsor Quiksilver, Way rolled down a massive ramp at nearly 50 miles per hour to perform the stunt. He blew the first landing. But he made the next three tries, even adding some 360 degree spins. He says the 61-foot jump had his heart pounding.
Way adds that he's honored to have his skateboarding visions embraced by the people of China.
He already holds skateboarding's height and distance jump records.
