WORLD RECORD AIR JUMPING MOTOCROSS VIDEO: RONNIE RENNER RISE 63′ FLY ON MOTOR

Ronnie Renner broke his own world record established last year at the famous Santa Monica Pier, when he jumped 59’ from the ground with his KTM motorcycle during the third edition of the Red Bull Experiment.
Last Saturday in Chicago, the daredevil managed to reach 63’ 5″ from the ground and his performance was certified by Guinness World Records, making the American motocross star the main attraction of the Red Bull High Rise event.
“It’s been crazy. I’m so pumped to have done it,” said Renner after his jumps. “What a killer vibe! All these people coming out to see me and they were psyched. I could hear the crowd cheering.”
You have to hand it to Red Bull-sponsored motorcycle riders for continuing to astonish fans with their remarkable achievements, and to the makers of the energy drink for adeptly using these athletes to maintain high visibility.
Two weeks ago, Robbie Maddison performed a back flip across the 100-foot gap of London’s fabled Tower Bridge.
On Saturday at Chicago’s Butler Field at Grant Park, with the city’s skyline as a backdrop, Ronnie Renner launched himself 63 feet, 5 inches above ground, eclipsing the world record he set last year.
Guinness World Records certified Renner’s highest jump, which was officially measured from the top of the 22-foot quarterpipe wall as 41 feet, 5 inches from the top of the ramp. That placed him 63 feet, 5 inches above ground, which from a motorcycle seat must present a daunting perspective.
