This is a re-dub because the original had a bit of crass language, but I am glad someone reposted with the music. Nope. It's not Wilmot. And no, it isn't Pastor Erik. (Although I did hear he was a monster on the slopes and he did remind me of this clip, so thank you P. Erik) This is Terje Haakonsen and he is on peak 7601 in Alaska. Although the clip is amazing, I am posting it to remind everyone (myself included and most of all) that through God all things are possible. Now please keep in mind that practice, ability and talent help quite a bit, but where there is a hole, God fills it. Where our talents shine, God makes them brilliant. He wants us to try new things and take the path less taken. Kinda like Terje. Except that it doesn't have to be snowboarding, and it doesn't have to be something that you are already good at. Talk to someone new. Read something different. Speak up when someone asks about God, or Jesus or the Bible. Yes, you could just sit there. Or you could step out of your box. Just get going. |

I remember this video... that guy is totally nuts. Total free-fall. It looks like at a couple spots he's out running avalanches he is setting off.
i hope my boys never try anything like this.
hmmm... maybe i will try the snowboard again next year...
