This first-person video gives viewers a sense of how Czech-born daredevill Mischo Erban felt hurtling down a Canadian hill at a frightening 130km/h.
Erban smashed the previous world record speed by 17km/h on the 18-degree incline called Les Eboulements (the Landslide), in Quebec.
He said he one day hopes to reach 257km/h on a skateboard — if he can find the right road.
