Ever Watch An Old James Bond Film?
There’s always these evil overlord villains and their henchmen doing all these crazy stunts and holding everyone for ransom and whatnot. Nowadays, your average douchebag with a GoPro camera and a spare snowmobile beats anything Ian Fleming’s got.
I have no idea how to portray a Bond villain to a contemporary audience — one that lives in a world where Vladimir Putin runs Russia, and got elected. I guess a contemporary villain would throw recyclable plastic into a regular trash can, or pour his waste motor oil into a storm drain, or maybe buy a puppy at a regular pet store instead of rescuing some neurotic greyhound left over from the track.
But drive a snowmobile off a cliff and parachute away? Hell, that’s just regular folks.

Sick.
Dumping a snowmobile off the Eiger Mordewand is the result of a sick mind. Love it!
My son would do this. He wants a wing suit. He has a GoPro. But, he is just a farmer. Don’t try this at home.
The spare heir was anguished at the thought of a perfectly good snowmobile, or at least the underpinnings of the mother of all go carts falling to it’s death.
The people who can afford such things are undeterred by the number of people who can appreciate things that are perhaps used beyond brand new.
