Unicyclist vs Spiked Fence

2011 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

"Learning new tricks" is a Darwinian laboratory of gene therapy. In this video we see a unicyclist trying to conquer a spike fence. The fence won and the human gene pool was immediately improved. http://video.foxnews.com/v/1136135551001/dumbest-stuff-on-wheels-unicyclist-vs-spiked-fence/?playlist_id=87485

Definitely Keep: Honorable Mention
He seems to be relatively OK, but I will give it an HM just because I can see no evidence of tampering or "trick photography". He's certainly lucky! Thanks, Magnus!
