I did a bit of skating for real – but, as I say in the story – it was a bit easier … back in the day.
WOW! I thought that Tim E., the host, had a hollywood magic stunt guy, too! But that was really him?! Good stuff!
whats the song that is playing when will ferrell is dancing by himself from 0:13 – 0:30???

BEST SPORTS MOVIE EVER!!!!!!!!!!

I live next to that rink. It’s awesome

So did Jon Heder really do his stunts? Or did he have a double too?
