The latest YouTube sensation, generating 2,000 views every hour yesterday is the stunt on skis over London tube network’s highest escalator.

London Underground condemned the stunt as “dangerous, stupid and irresponsible” however this kind of sport that is a cross between skiing, snowboarding and skateboarding is gaining popularity amongst the youth.
