Seems as though one of the most popular shots in Thunderstruck 5 is Dan “The Krazy Canadian” Davidoff’s monster pull out in Valhalla. It is the climb in the movie towards the end of his segment when he is up through rocks and trees and pops up over the cornice to his left just barely pulling it off! It surely is an amazing climb and it was recently voted the NUMBER 1 CLIMB in a snowmobile movie!! We knew it was a badass climb and now we know you all think so too! We are also getting funny and positive comments about Dan’s mid-air dismount and the subsequent laughter and comentary by Dan and yours truly (my name is Jim in case you’re wondering!). I even still laugh when I see it! Also getting great comments about Randy Swenson’s section, Brad Story’s section and Wes Little’s segment. Thanks to all who love Thunderstruck 5 and if you haven’t seen it yet, order it now! You’ll laugh your butt off and the “WOW!” factor is huge!
Below are a few comments about Dan’s riding in TS5:
“Just watched TS5. Mr. Davidoff, you are indeed, the Crazy Canadian. The climb you did with the big bail at the top, listening to Jim laughing ( Barney Rubble) about it, then you coming up and saying you think you hurt a nut, I laugh every time I think about it! TS 5 is the best yet, and I have all of them. Good job Jim and the Thunderstruck crew!” (from Sxrlar, Snowest Forums)
“Dan, You are a maniac! That climb was the best and the bail was even better.
I’ll have to watch TS5 again tonight and compare the laughter to Barney though. BTW, Did you ever find the missing nut?” (from HighMark700, Snowest Forums)
“I watched my pull 55 times plus this weekend and still get a rush everytime I watch it…. Thats why I wait for Jim to film the climbs… Cause when something like that happens…. It’s recorded for me , my daughter and one day my grand children..,,forever!!! and one day thay can say holy $hit.. cool grandpa…. I don’t think my 7 yr old daughter quite gets it yet , but her class mates all tell her , she has a really crazy dad!!” (from The Krazy Canadian himself, Snowest Forums)
“HOLY POO!!!!!” (from Sxrlar, Snowest Forums)
“I totally agree, probably the sickest climb I’ve ever seen (Davidoff).” (from Xrider, Snowest Forums)
