    Idk, it looks pretty fake tbh. If it really is old, then they probably just overlayed the boy on the bike during the darkroom process.

      Maybe fake, but I have no doubt this happened many times. We did this exact thing in the 80s with BMXs, there were injuries, we did it again.

        Oh for sure, it’s just that this particular image and especially that particular ramp don’t look all that feasible. The leg on that thing appear to be a brick on a cinderblock on a milk crate.
