Sledding behind a fighter jet, what could possibly go wrong? [video]

The forgettable action flick, Point Break might have been entirely forgotten were it not for Bodhi’s memorable maxim: “it’s not a tragedy to die doing something you love.”

That quote springs to mind when watching these crazy Swedes sledding behind a fighter jet. As far as crazy winter activities go – if you ask me – this seems slightly less crazy than jumping off an apartment building into a pile of snow, and may not be quite as imaginative as bungee sledding off a tall building… but it is no less awesome.

Needless to say, you probably shouldn’t try this at home. [Gizmodo]
