Cool Safety fail

I was at the Great Orme in Llandudno yesterday for the start of Rally GB. I captured this moment, the guy must have a death wish. For those of you who have been to the Orme, you will appreciate just how dangerous this is.



It was a cracking day out though, good to see they didn't hold back because they were on gravel tyres/suspension (as Ogier proved!)

There is no behind the wall, that's why it's so dangerous

I realised that after I posted, but also realised that I would not get away with editing it and not looking foolish, so I just decided to take it

It's my age........
