Are we watching the same video? That could be Ving Rhames at this resolution/distance.

My thoughts exactly. The back of his friend’s head really was really startled.

Watch the reaction on the face of the skateboarder’s friend.

Weak. He was in control the whole time. You want to see a close call on a skateboard? Check this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nTAn6E_flE

Rivers Cuomo really let himself go.

This video may very well be real, but haven’t we reached the point where any internet video is considered fake/staged until proven otherwise?

Fake. The skateboard looks weird as it keeps traveling.

Also this really looks like it could be in Pittsburgh, which would mean there’s a good chance the driver is Asian, which means I’m walking back my saying it isn’t a near death experience.

He stopped at stop sign, doesn’t really look close to the car at all. Anyone who stops at that stop sign in a car is having a near death experience too.
