That isnt a 'Video' of the event at all, just some 'stills' set to music, and I still dont believe that any rider, Pro or not, could or would ride that. Period.
For a start, you couldnt get on that ledge with Bikes......

Yes you could... you ever been there? I have. I've walked right along there where they're riding. Flippin' scary, but i still went there.

I do a lot of mountain biking having ridden in Ireland (Dublin,Limerick, Kerry) initially and now in Scotland. If you have got around 500 Euro to spend then it might be worth looking 2nd Hand from sites like:
www.mbul.ie
www.mtbireland.com
www.mbcc.ie
www.madmtb.com
also they would be able to give you good advice about where to buy etc and shoudl all have very active forums even if you want to go for a ride. I see you are from Limerick so MBUL head out midweek and weekends locally at Cratloe or Killaloe and further afield as well.
Check out www.paulscycles.co.uk/offers.php?cat=1 which has always got very good deals on previous years stock (the Giant XTC always gets good reviews for the cash). Have a look at www.chainreactioncycles.com as well to check for deals.
www.singletrackworld.com forum could be a good place to get some advice on what to buy as well and also has a very active Classifieds section.
if you need any other help or info let me know via PM.

I used to do alot as a kid, nothing serious, mainly trials stuff though as oppossed to actual riding.
Did a great trek in the brecon becons with the marines, cant think of the name of the place.
Bought a trek 4300 disc last year and hope to get out this year, I do a lot of camping in snowdonia so there are plenty of tracks!
For anyone who likes trials, search Danny macaskill on you tube Here is a particular favourite of mine
