Not exactly sheer drops though, I reckon you could slide down those and make out ok.

You would catch me up there once and once only. It would be the shortest trial ride of my life but the fastest bikeless decent in the world.

It's like one of those funny dreams you have sometimes where the track gets more and more scary but there's nowhere to turn so you have to keep going forward.

To fall safely down that slope probably wouldn't happen.
You'd have to land flat on your back and ride the slope like on a luge.
Attempts to use hands and feet as brakes would result in somersaults and broken bones. Any small ripples in the slope and it's definitely somersault time.

The skill in that video is quite low level for off-road, however his ability to zone into the route and not get flustered is brilliant.

I think the fact they look steep in the video really shows how steep they must have been! Usually quite hard to tell.

Definately not the best of times for a 2 stroke to cut out, that bloke is beast!

A worrying thing is that for long sections you wouldn't be able to put a foot down even to pause and look.

Too steep to change your mind and turn round, he's commited from the start.
probably a repost but heres another brave move.

I'd probably get in the way of you on a trail ride too, but on my bouncy mountain bike . And sure you'd be in my way when I'm on powered bike in most cases .

Pinky; you use your legs for suspension - though of course that doesn't help if it all goes wrong.
Next step up is doing it without seat at all:
