- He is totally out of his mind over this thing.

'Cause I've got to be free

Free to face the life that's ahead of me

He's so nervous.

I've never seen this out of him.

And I'll try, oh, Lord

I'll try to carry on

He's all in!

This is really happening.

- Oh, my God!

He's going really, really, really fast.

Go, go, go!

Boy, that was violent.

That is awesome!

Are you alive?

- Yeah, I'm not hurt.

- Yeah.

You got such good air

on that last jump, man.

You came off that ramp so fast,

and then you took off and it landed,

and we're like, ah.

- Did I just land on the wheels?

No, it landed on the roof.

I didn't think it was gonna roll at first,

and then it started rollin' so fast,

then you were flyin'.

Wow!

Godfrey, you are a nut. An absolute nut.

Why would you sign up for that?

- Now you tell him.

- Nah, I wouldn't have signed up for it, crap.

Your shoulder's hurting a little?

Stand on that car.

Claim it! Claim it!

Yeah, Gregg!

- Oh, that was violent.

- I'm glad you're alive, dude.

Is that the battery?

- Yeah, that's the battery.

As you can see, the battery's just toast.

Just launched...

Incredible. I'm speechless.

I have no words to describe this.

- That scared me.

- Who does that?

Who says, "I'm gonna try to

roll a car as many times as I possibly can?"

What an idiot!

Did we get a count on the rolls yet?

His entire goal

was to beat seven and three-quarters.

The official count...

Seven!

Not that I'm excited, but I kinda won.

I mean, I lost, but I won.

Depending on which way you wanna put that.

Sorry, Gregg. Better luck next time, champ.

Well, Jim and Crum, you

have been specially chosen for this stunt.

I'm lyin'. Nobody else wanted to do it.

It's up to you guys. Godspeed.

We're the last remaining stunt meat.

Fly straight.

All right, I'll give you $5 if Jim gets closer.

Jim will go up, stall, ditch it.

Crum will go up, stall, ride it all the way

down to a back flop getting smooshed.

Yeah. I don't think you're far off.

He's comin'! He's comin'!

- Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

- Way too fast. He's going way, way, way...

Whoa!

I panned all the way there, and I had to do

a couple corrections on the way,

I'm like, "I'm going way, way too fast,

I don't know how to slow down. "

Hello?

- This part where it looks...

- One second, Crum,

but you got all the things in place to

go ahead and do this right the second time.

Good luck.

Why do I not feel

as confident as you, Travis?

Crum.

He's a part-time handyman,

and he doesn't give a sh*t.

Hi, boys.

He's got just enough talent to turn girls'

heads, but not enough to seal the deal.

He's hoping the live show will change that.

Yeah! Crum!

Crum, you are the first person

on Nitro Circus history

to bail out of something

once you started at it.

You're only as good as your last stunt.

This actually maybe the most

disappointing thing in my life was just now.

- I'm disappointed in myself...

- I know you are.

- Let my friends down, and I let myself down.

- You didn't let me down, you owe me $3.

No sympathy here!

Crum, the good news is

you get to try this again.

The bad news is

the rest of the crew has no faith in you.

They're drivin' away right now,

they just left you.

What?

Sometimes, you get a second chance in life,

and you gotta take it.

And your friends ain't there to watch ya.

Who needs friends

when you got a second chance?

Pain is not the word.

The motor died!

Halfway across the water...

And I was like, "It's just not my day. "

That's just embarrassing.

Hi, I'm Wheelz, and I'm

Jumping this big-ass ramp in my wheelchair.

Trying to harness the Nitro cast

before a show or stunt

is pretty much like trying to herd

a thousand clinically insane stray cats.

Except they all have skateboards and

motorcycles and they're all faster than me.

Five minutes! Five minutes,

goin' out there! Five minutes!

No, I got fans.

"Streetbike Tommy. Best of the Nitro crew. "

We've had to

leave the country on many occasions

to get the kind of footage that's

gonna make people flock to see this movie.

You know that there was no strings,

there was no special effects,

there was no green screen, there was no

nothing to say that they didn't actually do it.

And, that's what you guys are doing.

You're just actually doing it

and saying, "All right, watch. "

We just arrived in Panama City,

and we're gonna start the day off

with Jim trying to hydro-skim

across the Nitro City pool.

In true Nitro fashion, it's gonna be either

really amazing, or Jim's gonna eat sh*t.

I'm ready for either one.

I call anything over baby pool good.

You said that, right, officially

that anything over the baby pool is me?

Yes.

If you and your bike make it over

the baby pool, I don't have to do this.

- Clear.

- Yes!

I have never selfishly hoped that someone

has made it as bad as I hope you make this.

This is probably the gnarliest hydroskim

I've ever actually seen.

So, good luck.

Please make it so I don't have to do it.

Yep.

- Hey, happy trails.

- Nice knowin' ya.

Okay, so he's gonna come from over there,

through the hotel and across the grass,

and he's gonna drop

eight, 10 inches onto the pool,

and then he's gonna jump the little pool,

land on the grass,

hopefully the bike's underneath him,

and then over the rocks,

into the ocean, and ride away...

Right.

Go, go, go!

Am I hurt?

No good.

I needed to go faster.

That went as bad as it could have gone.

Oh, my gosh.

This little blue piece right here saved his life.

Had that not been here, it would have been

a back or neck cracker on this.

Yeah, whoever came up with that idea,

Jim owes him a thousand handshakes.

Well, apparently,

Trav is going to gear up right now

because that was technically a fumble.

- I actually don't want Travis doing this.

- I agree with you, but I think he can do it.

- Yeah.

- That's the thing.

Like, I think Trav can

skim through here and get a touchdown.

If he does what Jim did,

Trav's goin' to the hospital.

If Trav dittos what Jim did,

busted shoulder, concussion...

Yeah, Trav's head cannot...

Yeah, he can't take it,

and his shoulder will buckle.

Jim didn't make the touchdown.

He didn't make the field goal.

And unfortunately, he didn't even

make the two point conversion.

On his last drive, he got the turnover.

And now it's my turn.

So he didn't have enough speed on the 450,

and I'm gonna try it on a 250.

This is the part of the show where I crash,

and then Trav goes back,

"It's so easy," does it, no problem.

I'm gonna go have a beer,

I'm not even gonna watch him.

Ronald McDonald's on his bike.

God, does he look stupid.

Why is he wearing a diaper?

Sh*t! I am nervous.

That was insane! I can't believe it!

Oh, my God!

- How the hell does he do that?

- I don't even know how he hung onto that.

- He's such a douche.

- I hate him.

He's way too good at things.

He's way too good.

That speed was intense.

I hope he gets stung
