Director Brooks Reynolds has put together a stunning slow motion video called 'Vis Viva' that features a couple of guys performing BMX stunts in a dark alleyway, while several fireworks go off all around them. The video has a very mellow feel and can put almost any viewer into a dream-like state.
Needless to say, these are extremely dangerous stunts (I think there was a few times in the video where I could see some of the stuntmens nearly getting hit by those fireballs).
The best part in the video (for me) has to be when one of the riders grinds a rail on the wall while having a firework go off in his spokes and and several directed at his body. The riders in the video were Lee Dennis, Brad Hill and Josh Lichti.
