Amazing! Gonna try for 360 feet now. But now I have to try to explain the pig in the Trojan commercial to my kid. :-/

His second jump was not as long as his first. He just could not get enough Trojan rubber on the ground to get good traction.

Having no access to television, I'm gonna guess we aren't talking standing broad jump, or a triple jump for that matter.

Robbie Maddison jumped the length of a football field on a 500cc motorcycle. He jump 322'-7.5" to break the old record of 310 feet. He hit the take off ramp around 90 MPH and reached a height of 60' at the top of his arch before landing successfully. Very impressive!

Here it is on YouTube.

It'll probably get taken down for copyright violation, so watch it quickly. :)

Thanks, but can't get youtube either. I'm sure it was quite impressive!

This was funny for us ... my dad and I had just finished watching Ghost Rider (in which his last big jump was an entire football field, goalpost to goalpost) when we heard about this jump. lol
