Clements now knows what it's going to be like to be bald, and apparently it required constant sun screen applications

Mmmm. REALLY hot donuts

I overheard a bystander saying that Barak was the most convincing as a cop. Ha.

I like the 2nd Fun Fact

There was quite the crowd gathering in front of the officers

This was our view from the Red Bull "cool person" area

Red Bull provided us with plenty of food and beverages in the "cool person" area

These guys won, and I'm pretty sure I heard they spent like eight-grand on their craft. They went 109ft., while the world record is 130ft.

There were a couple boats there

The hang-glider technique was a popular one, but not always the most effective

All day I saw people over at Harbor Island fanning themselves. Maybe the people that live over there go out in the sun too much

It's kind of hard to see, but a lot of teams made their crafts with 2x4's. Have you ever been hit or fallen on a 2x4 from 25ft. up in the air?

Man, hanging out in that nasty water is insane!

UT had a clever Spartan design and skit

All right, a little fun fact about this water: Years ago when I tried to get a diver to dive for boards for this art show I was doing, I was quoted $3000 for the dive. They claimed that due to the water's toxicity levels the diver would need a full body suit

Wait, I think this is the one that was eight-grand. It blew smoke and raised its pilot up in the air...then it broke and they had to all carry it...haha

The Derby Darlins won the text vote and the "Most Pollutants in the Bay" award

Stripping was a big part of a lot of skits

It looked a little hot to be wearing black uniforms

Hi guys - L to R: Angel, Barak, Body, Jorge, and Clem

The customary interview with Vin Diesel and some semi-hot chick that ran out of things interesting to say three crafts into it

Part of the skit was Angel ollieing over the pig (Body - how appropriate) that's frying on the ground

An Angel attempts flight

Killer tattoos for your viewing pleasure. On a side note, I'd like to thank Sarah from Red Bull for all the accomodations and making sure I had the right credential for free beverages
