Here’s something you don’t see everyday. Up-and-coming professional BMX rider—and Michigan native—Tyler Fernengel performs an exhibition of his skills at the abandoned Silverdome Stadium. The deserted and destructed backdrop paired with Fernengel’s amazing feats produce a spectacle equal parts eerie and mesmerizing.
The pièce de résistance comes at 2:30, when Fernengel does a 360-barspin from the club/patio level all the way down to the stadium floor. Apparently, the first time he tried it, he completely crashed.
