The GERMAN AUTOBAHN YOUTUBE SKATEBOARDING VIDEO Everyone is looking for

Reuters talked about it HTBW has the video. Everyone is searching for the VIDEO OF THE GERMAN SKATEBOARDER SKATEBOARDING on the GERMAN AUTOBAHN. Well, search no longer, here it is. Apparently this German Skateboarder hit speeds of 100KMPH or 60 MPH.

German police said Wednesday they were looking for a skateboarder who was filmed travelling around 100 kilometres (60 miles) an hour on a motorway.

The skater can be seen on a film made available on video-sharing website YouTube hanging onto a motorbike to get up to speed before letting go and whizzing downhill along an autobahn (motorway) in southern Germany.

German autobahns often have no speed restrictions but the picturesque stretch of road concerned outside Goeppingen near Stuttgart has a limit of 80 kilometres per hour.





According to press reports the man, dressed in the video in a red and black jumpsuit and an aerodynamic white helmet, is a stuntman and well-known international downhill skater. A comment on YouTube suggested he was Canadian.

But police were not amused, with spokesman Uli Stoeckle telling AFP on Wednesday they were trying to find the skater and that he was being investigated for dangerous behaviour.
