Speed Record: Hercules Hits 130.7mph on a Mountain Bike

Mr. Stoeckl nicknamed "Hercules, is 6'4", weighs 220lbs and travels at 130.7mph on a bicycle. He did this on a 2000m stretch at a 45 degree run in the Chilean Alps. To prevent his helmet from fogging up, Mr. Stoeckl had to hold his breath for the entire 40s it took to complete the distance.

Laughing Yoga - A New Kind of Crazy

Unfortunately, laughing yoga is real. I don't need any help encouraging my body to laugh when completely unnecessary. I wish he would go away, but it's funny watching people loose it.
