Mountain biker Markus Stoeckl set a new world speed record in the series downhill mountain bike class this past week when he blazed down a 6,500-foot, 45-degree snow track at the La Parva ski resort in the Central Andes of Chile and hit a max speed of 210kmh.
The 33-year-old shattered the eight-year-old world record by 14 mph despite poor weather conditions, and the fact that his protective visor was so fogged, he was forced to hold his breath for the entire 40-second run.
"I knew that this would be my only chance," he said, in a news release.
But here at Outside, we know the entire time he was thinking, "please God, don't let this end like him."
