Other than cooking up a nice tub of meth or tipping cows, the Fly Over States have never been known as a premier destination for extreme sports. Until now. Today. On GoBlog. Continuing our tradition of breaking the latest trends and sports world wide, we bring you silo bungee jumping. That's right. Rubber band. Encased metal tube. 85 IQ. It's a combustible mix sure to sweep the world:

In silo jumping, an individual leaps feet first down into a silo while attached to a long rubber "bungee" cord. If the flight down is dangerous, the rebound back up is downright treacherous. "It's hard to drop straight down, but it's next to impossible to bounce straight back up," says Markey, as he tightens a screw that holds a metal plate in his skull.

Sedalia is considered the "Vail" of the sport because it boasts the widest variety of silos from which to choose. "You've got grain silos all over the place," says Chamber of Commerce President Wayne Goshko. "And we've got a lot of empty underground silos from when the Minuteman missile base on the western edge of town was up and running. You best be sure there's no missile in 'em before you jump, those things have sharp points."

Oh yeah. We are not making this stuff up. We can see Cheney and Rumsfeld pioneering this sport given their taste for global adventure and low, low IQs. Read more on The Spoof. Via Adventure Blog.
