he snowmobiles with his brother rob. together they seek out bigger cliffs to jump from. we try and get up early in the morning, and we call it dawn patrol. it s getting up before the sun comes up and getting the fresh tracks and getting out there. tim and i are always pushing the limits. oh, yeah, i see a cliff. that s ten feet. we can do that. then the next one it s 20 feet. and he does a 30 and i got to do a 40. it steps up from there. even the brothers like the hoff brothers can reach their limit. march 2010, tim, rob and a camera crew are in the mountains of british columbia, canada, on a quest to film their biggest jumps yet. we wanted to get a lot of air footage, powder footage.
far from it. i knew as soon as i hit. i felt my face hit the handlebars and i knew something, my teeth were broke or my lip was cut off or something like that. tim landed pushed the handlebars down and the sled handlebars down and the sled bucked back, bucked back forward, then tim got fully ejected feet over head, landed in front of the sled. and that sled is still running. the sled just mowed my butt down and gave me the biggest hematoma you ve ever seen in my life. that s a giant bruise. for rob and the crew it s a scary sight. it was like losing my brother right in front of my eyes. i pretty much freaked out, hopped on my sled. went over to make sure he was all right. tim is bruised and battered. i ve never seen anyone go bigger in my entire life. i felt like i got hit by a bus. my back was severely hurt. you know, sprained.
the cameras just had to scramble, actually, to get into place. i looked at it. well, mike, that s the spot, if we re going to hit it, that s where it s got to be done. the crew barely has time to shoot off before tim shoots off the cliff and into the air. gave it a big juice off the nose. once i was in the air, it felt like i was there for a long time. in risky jumps like this, there s a thin line between greatness and disaster. it s one of those cliffs that if you were to mess up on getting to the drop, it could be life ending. it s a big cliff. a couple hundred feet. so it s a do or die. for a few seconds tim straddles that line. i was really stoked going off of it, and i was really excited. like slow motion watching him fall from the sky. unbelievable. then watching him land, you know, i saw him land. i thought he was going to pull
it off for sure. but tim doesn t pull it off. far from it. i knew as soon as i hit. i felt my face hit the handlebars and i knew something, my teeth were broke or my lip was cut off or something like that. tim landed pushed the handlebars down and the sled bucked back, bucked back forward, then tim got fully ejected feet over head, landed in front of the sled. and that sled is still running. it just mowed my butt down and gave me the biggest hematoma you ve ever seen in my life. that s a giant bruise. for rob and the crew it s a scary sight. it was like losing my brother right in front of my eyes. i pretty much freaked out, hopped on my sled. tim is bruised and battered. i ve never seen anyone go bigger in my entire life. i felt like i got hit by a bus. my back was severely hurt. you know, sprained.
tracks and getting out there. tim and i are always pushing the limits. oh, yeah, i see a cliff. that s ten feet. we can do that. then the next one it s 20 feet. and he does a 30 and i got to do a 40. it steps up from there. even the brothers like the hoff brothers can reach their limit. march 2010, tim, rob and a camera crew are in the mountains of british columbia, canada, on a quest to film their biggest jumps yet. we wanted to get a lot of air footage, powder footage. in that area you can get more big fast pictures and shots because it s so big, so long, so much terrain. everybody was pumped up and ready to drop a cliff or do a big jump or something. everybody was ready to unleash a little energy. scouting for a great jump, tim looks up and sees the perfect cliff. i kind of just clicked into go mode. well, i m going to do it. the cameras just had to scramble, actually, to get into place.
