The French inventor Jean-Yves Blondeau is a human rocket. He rips down mountain roads at breathtaking speed. All in his own special suit with over 30 wheels attached. If something goes wrong he’s had it. That’s why many think he’s got a screw loose up there. But very much to the joy of the fans of his Internet-Videos, Buggy Roller as he’s called is not about to be stopped.

In 1994 Jean-Yves finished his studies in indutrial design with a graduation project that featured a suit of amour on wheels. Not long after that he made his first video, but it wasn't until 2005 that he began posting his videos on the internet. 
Some say he's a born entertainer, and he's certainly given the residents of Annecy old town in the French Alps, where he regularily performs a good few laughs. 
After 13 years of hair-raising rides, speeding down hills at 120 km per hour it seems Jean-Yves' daring has paid off. A major sports manufacturer wants to buy his suit and make it available commercially.
