- MiltonWaddams, on 01/29/2008, -7/+193Very cool. When there is nothing original left to do.....start blowing ***** up.
- SonicRush, on 01/29/2008, -7/+145omg who is this kevinrose noob submitting duplicates :) http://www.digg.com/extreme_sports/Best_Skate_Vide ...
- motionblur, on 01/29/2008, -2/+89As a non-skateboarder, it was cool enough just seeing the moves in slow motion.
- gnews, on 01/29/2008, -2/+84They didn't use special effects... It’s all hard core pyromania, nice!
- RomulusX86, on 01/29/2008, -2/+77Girl (skateboards) always does the sickest stuff, they once did invisible skateboarding: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DIEM144OB0
- The_Wallbanger, on 01/29/2008, -0/+49Music: M83 - "Lower Your Eyelids to Die With the Sun"
- benguild, on 01/29/2008, -1/+47Bye.
- spidoman, on 01/29/2008, -8/+45The first time, however 5 minutes of slow mo without a break is just painful to watch.
- XMinusX, on 01/29/2008, -2/+35the special effects was courtesy of spike Jones.

but I used to be in the Skateboard ind.(4 years ago) it's impressive to see the video's that from in the 80's from a crappy camcorder TO great artistic and quality filmmaker near the 00'' and now with this type of special effects - ostrakon16, on 01/29/2008, -4/+36Like, really rad. I am totally gonna dig up my skateboard and some tnt i have in the garage and see what i can come up with!
- hammerpants, on 01/29/2008, -0/+23Also courtesy of Spike Jonze. The skateboards were green, and they keyed them out. It was really cool, later on in the film, when they revealed that some of the ollies in the film were aided by green ramps that were keyed out.
- Shenaniganz08, on 01/29/2008, -1/+19dugg for lack of protective goggles !
- Scheissen, on 01/29/2008, -2/+18wtf why is Rose using canada youtube?
- jonnyfive, on 01/29/2008, -2/+17It's styrofoam. They did the same trick for the first Jackass movie. You know, when they are in the shopping carts and the "cement" is blowing up all around them?
- borez, on 01/29/2008, -1/+15Dugg for the soundtrack alone
- spidoman, on 01/29/2008, -3/+16This video starts out slow (literally) also ends slow (literally) The middle is also slow (literally)
- macatizor, on 01/29/2008, -0/+12Wow, I almost closed it before the first explosion thinking it was just skaters in slow motion. I'm glad I kept watching.
- slomotion, on 01/29/2008, -0/+11"YEAH RIGHT!"
- Cabface, on 01/29/2008, -0/+10Dugg for being taken from one of the best skate videos in recent memory.
- badjoke, on 01/29/2008, -1/+11It's foam, not real rubble.
- MiltonWaddams, on 01/29/2008, -2/+12I'd guess that based on the titles/descriptions and where video is hosted, the doop catcher wouldn't get it.
- pookatron, on 01/29/2008, -7/+15my dick is green
- Soave, on 01/29/2008, -6/+14I absolutely agree. I thought it was painfully slow. They didn't need every part of every segment to be in slow motino.
- enjoiSKATE09, on 01/29/2008, -0/+8Fully Flared!!! Best skate vid out there right now imo. took long enough for them to release it though lol.
- migsims, on 01/29/2008, -1/+8I believe the correct answer if he answered would be "I ownz diz ***** bitznatch"
- retrolab, on 01/29/2008, -0/+7M83 is awesome. New album in a few months
- windycityhxc, on 01/29/2008, -1/+7everything is real.
- hendrixlives64, on 01/29/2008, -1/+7best skate video i've seen, hands down. seriously, even if you don't skate, buy the DVD its ***** wild.
- piffboy, on 01/29/2008, -2/+8Somehow i don't see them having the special effects budget to pull those off with CGI. The stuff they were blowing up is most likely wood with some plaster and paint over it.
Also, comments on Youtube are, last i checked, not capable of having opinions. - wsuBobby, on 01/29/2008, -1/+7I thought that song was tight
- alienbob113, on 01/29/2008, -1/+6Dugg for M83 the soundtrack
- sarixe, on 01/29/2008, -2/+7could be that it was ... STAGED (duh duh duuuuuh)
- kidcodea, on 01/29/2008, -5/+10i dont agree. i loved it.
nonskater.
greets to all involved - capiCrimm, on 01/29/2008, -1/+6welcome to every ***** industry and hobby in the world. Insiders look at it from the skill/hardness perspective, whereas outsiders always look at it from a use/coolness perspective.
- windycityhxc, on 01/29/2008, -0/+5this is the intro to a skateboarding video, not an ad.
- sarixe, on 01/29/2008, -2/+7actually, if you pay attention, CG is pretty easy to pick out. also, it was obviously not concrete. remember, it's possible to use other materials. (points out narrow mind of skeptic)
- windowi, on 01/29/2008, -3/+8(again) dugg for m83
- vocalyouth, on 01/29/2008, -1/+6Lakai Footwear and Girl Skateboards.
- Teh_Shiz, on 01/29/2008, -3/+8Like, oh my goodness, none of those kids had helmets on..
- kuckle, on 01/29/2008, -0/+5this is such a good skate video. everyone on the Lakai team is so talented
- Link459, on 01/29/2008, -0/+5That was amazing.
- Cabface, on 01/29/2008, -0/+4Definitely, and the video this clip is taken from proves it. The guys in Full Flared do the type of ***** I didn't even think people would ever even attempt.
- MacGyver2210, on 01/29/2008, -1/+5Go enjoy your Haterade by yourself in the corner. We'll be over here, enjoying some cool filmmaking without you...
- yersoocrust, on 01/29/2008, -1/+5M83 is amazing!
- Psyfrox, on 01/29/2008, -1/+5Spike JONZE not Jones.
- jkarhu24, on 01/29/2008, -0/+4Actually, it was incredibly well received. Koston, Paul Rodriguez, Rick McCrank.... the video was ***** crazy IN ADDITION to having really cool special effects.
- inactive, on 01/29/2008, -1/+5can't go wrong with explosives
- harrisbradley, on 01/29/2008, -2/+6Framerate was like butter.
- blahtastic, on 01/29/2008, -0/+4When jumping over stairs, the idea is generally to not touch them.
Plus if that one was real, its probably just an average explosion with a pyrotechnic fireball rather than an explosive fireball (that doesn't really make sense...just like, a fireball for the sake of a fireball, rather than one due to an explosion). The fire may be fake though, because I can't really tell how close those back guys are. They looked a bit too close for comfort. - brianjlowry, on 01/29/2008, -2/+5You managed to pinpoint the only example using Heath Ledger.
