You can do in London!

It was showing on the news today a man who ski-ed down an escalator, filming as he did it from a helmet camera.

Here is the link (press 'Watch' to see it: you need Media player or Real Player): http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/6501897.stm

Fancy ski-ing down an escalator? Fancy ski-ing down an escalator?

Yikes!! I have overcome a lot of phobias in the past couple of years, but my biggest lingering phobia is DOWN escalators for some reason. Watching that clip actually made me feel all shaky. LOL. Better him than me. Fancy ski-ing down an escalator?
