Filmmaker Jacob Rosenberg has just released the trailer to his new documentary, Waiting for Lightning.
The documentary tells the life story of skateboarder-turned-daredevil Danny Way, a man who has pushed the limits of skateboarding through such feats as jumping the Great Wall of China and dropping in from a helicopter.
It looks to explore “how much abuse the body can sustain, how deep you have to dig to survive the betrayals of family, and how high and far dreams can fly.”
It features the likes of Tony Hawk, Rodney Mullen and Matt Hensley, all giving an insight into the way of the Way.
Waiting for Lightning is due to premiere at SXSW 2012, and should hopefully be released later in the year.
