Danny Way electrifies Las Vegas with the ultimate bomb drop

Danny Way, a pro skater out of San Diego, has successfully "bomb droppded" from the Fender Stratocaster sign in front of the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nev. Danny dropped from over 82 feet onto a self-made ramp breaking the previous world record of a 12 foot, 3.6 inch drop. Danny dropped a total of 28 feet, landing on his board and riding out the first part of the ramp.
Bam Margera, star of the MTV show "Viva La Bam" and Sirius Satellite Radio host said, "The rollin on that is insane!"
Danny now holds two world records, but to him, it’s not about breaking records, it’s about pushing the limits of the sport.
So what's next? Danny thinks dropping 100 feet onto a 200 foot ramp is possible. We say go for it ... and do it in Vegas!
Danny Way is most famous for his leap across the Great Wall of China in July, 2005. He broke the world record for distance in that leap and solidified the popularity of the mega-ramp.
