After you have exhausted all your cash (that you should be saving for gas but didn’t) and waited in queue all day for the new 3G iphone that you probably don’t need, but are going to get anyways because… well, you’re that dumb that you have to have it, (and by the way, if you are “that guy” who, for some apparent reason, got the “for-suckers-only-no-contract-agreement,” you must be crazy) here is an absolute, nothing-to-do, after work event that can ease your mind off of all that money spent.

“Freestyle motocross superstar Ronnie Renner will attempt to establish the Guinness World Record for highest air ever attained on a motorcycle. Breaking boundaries is at the core of the Red Bull Experiment, which showcases the world’s best athletes performing world-first, ‘experimental’ sporting feats. Renner is a respected freestyle motocross veteran, whose credentials include a gold medal in Step-Up at the 2007 Summer X Games and until recently, the Step-Up world record (35 feet high). He will attempt the sky-high jumps onto a massive custom-built galvanized steel quarterpipe measuring 64 feet wide and 25 feet tall. While this Red Bull Experiment may surprise some enthusiasts who’ve known the accomplished rider to be more focused on style, highlighted by huge whips, rather than risk-taking, Renner assures everyone that he’s ready to soar into freestyle fame. ”
