After the incredible success of Red Bull’s 2007 version of the New Year No Limits, which featured the Australian pilot, Robbie Maddison attempting a new world record distance jump of over 322 feet at the Rio All Suites Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, the ‘Bull and Sun’ is ready for a second round of action and amazing stunts in Las Vegas.
ÂÂ
“My body
can be broken but my mind cannot. This year, people will witness the first ramp
to ramp back flip in an off-road truck - ever!†said Millen.
Robbie Maddison will also try to set a new elevation record, his goal is to
jump more than 100 feet vertically, attempting to leap from a ramp onto the top
of the Arc de Triumph replica located right in front of Paris Las Vegas Hotel
and Casino. An if he successfully completes the jump, then he will jump from
the Arc and freefall to a landing ramp below.
"To
see how high 100 feet is, it’s pretty overwhelming. Pretty much a fall from
there would be 100-percent fatal. I love this stuff. Makes me so scared,†said
Maddison.
Besides the thousands of revelers gathered in Las Vegas to see this amazing stunt, millions of viewers worldwide will also have the opportunity to witness both jumps thanks to ESPN, which will cover and broadcast the Red Bull event starting at 11:00 p.m. eastern time.
