Danny MacAskill Cascadia YouTube still.JPGVideo: behind the scenes of Danny MacAskill's Cascadia
Behind the scenes footage of Danny MacAskill’s Cascadia film has been released, showing just how much preparation goes into producing a stunt film shot almost entirely on people’s rooftops.

The original Cascadia was filmed using GoPro Hero4 cameras in partnership with Mount Creative and Vision Ramps, including a bonus 360 degree view Virtual Reality angle (below)
In case you haven’t seen the original – or want a second or third or fourth (etc) watch - the original Cascadia film is here

Possibly they live in eg. Finland, where it's obviously impractical to cycle in winter and nobody would want to. Oh, wait......
