Good news, however, to describe Eddie Edwards as "the great" is stretching it a bit! (And I have known and like Michael Edwards since the 1970/80s on the Gloucester dry slope - and he is a very friendly, good all-round bloke!)

You can have your opinion, I actually thought the lad had a lot of balls to what he did, there is still a lot of snobbery in sport and the powers that be you could say disliked him :wink:

He is a great guy, and only those who have stood at the top of a 90m hill and then jumped have the right to give him any stick for his jumping ability.
Does he still hold the British records for ski jumping?

Well said. At least Mr Edwards gave it his best and went off the end of the ramp.

I stood at the top of Finlands biggest ski jump and looked down. Any-one who can jump off that deserves respect. It was scary, dont know how any-one can do it.
