This skater gets seriously rocked.

Ooh...not a good landing.

A snowboarder pulls off a neat trick.

And by "grind" I mean "smashes into and cracks ribs".

If it hadn't been for those metal rails and concrete stairs, that might've looked pretty cool.

This guy won't quit and the falls just keep getting worse as he attempts to ride his bike
down a stair railing...

Wow, a skater does something right on a web video, i'm impressed.

Little skater kids repeatedly get owned by this stair rail.

Damn, that guys face ate that concrete up big time. That's why you don't try to cycle down
a rail.

A thickset heron with all-over bright, pale, buffy-brown plumage covered with dark streaks and bars. It flies on broad, rounded, bowed wings. A secretive bird, very difficult to see, as it moves silently   more...through reeds at water's edge, looking for fish. The males make a remarkable far-carrying, booming sound in spring. Its dependence on reedbeds and very small population make it a Red List species - one of the most threatened in the UK.
In Broadland the storm resulted in a 2000 feet breach in the sandhills at the Hundred Stream north of Winterton. The flooded area extended to 7500 acres, the depth varying from a few inches to over eight feet in the deepest parts. Only three bitterns nests were found that spring in the affected area, 'birds being absent in areas where they had bred and boomed for the past 20 years.'

These enigmatic birds faced further problems during three consecutive severe winters beginning in 1940. Worse was to follow: 1947 is still remembered as outstanding for the intensely cold, long, winter. Periodic blizzards buried all reedbeds. A number of bitterns died of starvation, but the survivors bred successfully both at Cley and in the Broads.

Cley suffered a further inundation on the night of January 31 1953, the marsh flooding to a dept of 10 to 12 feet. Yet that spring Billy Bishop recorded two bitterns' nests. And despite the sea breach at Palling the Broadland boomers also survived.


No further bittern surveys were organised locally until 1970 (following a rapid colonisation in East Norfolk of foxes), and again six years later. The first showed an alarming decline. The second confirmed a situation exceeding worst expectations. But why the decline? Mainly a combination of the drying-out of reedbeds, a decline in available food and an increase in water pollution.

What are a bittern's ideal needs and how can Continental ones wintering here be tempted to say and breed? According to the authoritative 'Birds of the Western Palearctic' bitterns favour the dense cover of reedbeds contained sheltered shallow water...usually avoiding older and drier stands of reed...and tolerating brackish water where the sea has broken in.

Fortunately concerted action has been taken to rescue the bittern from the brink of extinction as a breeding bird. The Norfolk Wildlife Trust has joined the RSPB, English Nature and the Environment Agency in a series of ambitious projects to, not only restore reedbeds but also to create large new ones. The work involves providing areas of open water with reed fringes, widening dykes and constructing banks to raise water levels. It would be a tragedy to again lose nesting bitterns as happened by the middle of the last century.

During the years of abundance the country's leading bird photographers came to Broadland. Sitting in tiny hides for long periods, they were privileged to observe the domestic life of the mysterious bittern. Their photographs confirm it was frequent to find nests in deeply flooded reedbeds with water lapping the nest edges. One Hickling nest was built on the top of an abandoned coot's nest and in water so deep that the keeper had difficulty in reaching it clad in thigh waders.

Normal progress of a bittern is performed not on the ground but by grasping reeds - several at a time - with the huge toes. This stilt-like movement is remarkably effortless for so comparatively large a bird.

In times of a shortage of food nestling bitterns will turn cannibal and devour the smallest in a brook. One young bird, handled after wandering, readily disgorged a leg and thigh of a former brother or sister.  less

This is my friend, Tyler.

Skater punks smashing their nuts on a rail is nothing new... but a dumb kid ending his chances of having children while trying to ski down a flight of cement steps sure is.
