"Pastrana officially flew his car 269 feet over the water before landing hard on a floating barge and skidding into a barricade that prevented him from going into the drink. The X-Games legend (9 gold medals) made his name in motocross, but Pastrana’s 450 HP Subaru WRX STI rally car has become his vehicle of choice.

That was a cool jump, but yea I don't care much for him either. During or after his stunts, theres always something that made him be a little off or some other small error. And he always talks about how he sucks (which his obviously good at what he does) just reminds me of a hot girl always saying how bad she looks so people can tell her how good she looks.

you know i had the same thought a first, but after meeting him a couple times and talking to him, he's one of the nicest guys i've ever met. The problem is, he's truely a perfectionist, so if there is a small hiccup in anything he does, it really does eat him up. He's not doing it so be a pain, he's usually doing it to just vent...

That's understandable. He does crazy ass stunts that are very dangerous, so I don't expect anything less from him.
