Extreme Sports or what?

This clip shows members of the USA Quadriplegic Rugby team wheelchair jousting with cattle prods.

It was filmed for Jackass.

Just when you think you've seen everything . . . . :rolleyes:

Did anybody else see the whole episode?
They got in the wheelchairs on top of a bar and wheeled off it. The amazing thing is that they kept their balance and didn't fall when they hit the ground.
They also wheeled really fast and hit people who were standing up in the private region. Bruce saw that and did it to his best friend. He hit the poor guy so hard he threw up! :D

Did anyone see the Jackass episode when they went into the pool? That was a classic. I hear they might be at the quad rugby event in Las Vegas this year. The date is Oct. 6-8. Anyone else hear the same? My kids want to meet them. :soapbox:

How about "Remote Control Electric Wheelchair Racing" - you control your opponent's chair by remote control and they control your's... then you race! I had that idea a couple of years ago and was going to try to rig up a couple of old wheelchairs but haven't got round to it!!!
