McConkey (2013)
Not very interesting
No idea who this guy was prior to movie. Evidently he was some sort of marginal professional skier. He plays pranks such as skiing naked. Lots. Some people think its funny I guess.
He then gets into extreme sports and keeps pushing the limits for whatever reason. He has lots of buddies, grown men who dress like teenagers and have nicknames. They wear ski hats indoors for interviews.
The high point is when they are protesting how its illegal to base jump at a national park (because the rangers think its too dangerous). Then a base jumper falls to her death during the protest. This was the only funny part of movie.
Movie doesn't explain why a Canadian guy with an Australian? wife is running around the U.S. doing these things. Is there a powerdou---bag visa class? Who pays his hospital bills and for the helicopters? Watching this I was reminded of the documentary 'Grizzly Man'.
This guy isn't funny or amusing, just malignantly immature. His wife is beautiful, why she would have a kid with him who knows. Lots of people live life on their own terms, they just don't need to be incredibly stupid about it.
Somewhere out there is a guy inventing a new sport like pit-bull-testicle-slapping. Maybe they make a better documentary.
