I'm downloading it now. When i was a kid i used to take box's and ride in them down the stairs. Of course all the fun stopped when i moved in to a 1-floor house.

Errr... I don't know what to say. All I can suggest is, If you want it to look about a billion times better, don't grab the rail

Ornasck that was funny. You went the safer backwards way also. Very smart.
You looked a little scared though:D

I didn't think going backwards was safer until you said it... I aws scared because I couldn't see where I was going
But yeah I guess if you go forwards then you have the whole impact as you hit the stairs to look forward to. I shall try again when I've had a few drinks for more spectacular results.

I'm now really tempted to try out some of these techniques but I don't fancy crashing into the thin layer of plaster board covering our gas meter at the bottom of the stairs.
(Although it would be quite a scene, I don't think my mother would approve).

Just remember that stairs in gerneral are very hard and unforgiving.
Start at first with a small flight and then work your way down more:P

It that game you posted, I'll bet that if you get more than about 40000 in damage, the guys either dead or in a coma

Well, falling down a full flight of stairs (13 steps) Is a party trick of mine. Plus you can make it look convincing too if done correctly.
Basically all you do is walk down normally and then collapse one leg and try and roll with your shoulder hitting the stairs first.
From there, just go limp....
no broken necks so far, and is great for making a scene at parties..

Just get a quick safety survey of the area first:D ie for loose nails, rocks, broken glass etc
