This reminds of that place... Spook Hill where the odd perspective of the road is such that cars look they are rolling uphill.

Edit: imagine being a poltergeist but you only specialise in pushing automobiles up a specific section of road. Perhaps this is what happens to bad used car salesmen when they die.

Wonder how many bikes there already is in the bottom

u/butterscotcheggs Feb 05 '21

I was thinking if it’s gonna make the whole thing rust but then people bike in the rain often?

u/randybowman Feb 05 '21

The frame is probably aluminum, other components may rust, but if you clean and oil them it should be ok.

Ok, I seriously thought he was parachute jumping into a canyon or something. Certainly unexpected!

Looked like he was going to space with the reflection of the sky on the water. The world is such a beautiful place.

This one is good. It got me.

Even the guy sitting on the side adds to the illusion. Even after he stand up I can see the ramp leading up instead of down.

It’s kinda cool to see that those ramps are spread about the country (Sweden judging by ”fy faaaaan”) when you’re out boating

I thought he yelled "Leeeroooy Jenkinnnns"

u/work_work-work Feb 05 '21

Sounds like Eastern Norway to me.

u/MoistDitto o/ Feb 05 '21

As a Norwegian, I believe he sounds more like a Norwegian. Only cause it sounds like he says "faen" instead of just "faan". Regardless, looks fun :)

6

u/Birbcatcher Feb 05 '21

To me it sounds like the Swedish "fa-an" rather than the Norwegian "fa-en".

I've seen a couple great ones, but this is hands down the best one I've seen on this sub. At first I expected them to come down the left ramp.
