I just looked it up and one of them really did die. That's terrible. I guess the video doesn't actually show the death, but it's not cool to have people's death's on YouTube. I'm probably naive, guessing there is much worse, but this is like extreme rubbernecking. We shouldn't be watching this.
I did zorb in swim trunks, sliding around in a bit of water (not strapped in), and it was one of the funnest 30 seconds of my life trying to stay upright and run with the thing like a hamster without falling, I was laughing at the top of my lungs the whole time. But uh... don't do it off the top of a mountain. I did it on a small hill zigzag course with massive earthen walls keeping you on track and it ended on a flat. That video's tragic but seriously zorbing is fun as hell.
