Daredevils: Life on the Edge. Channel 4: 10.00pm
Danny MacAskill is a YouTube superstar. His spectacular bike tricks won him fame online. But a decade of daredevil stunts has taken its toll on this young man from the Isle of Skye. Danny wants to know why young people take risks by pursuing extreme sports. He meets his heroes - many of whom are also stars of the YouTube era - to understand what drives them to take risks. Why do they seem so fearless compared to 'normal' people? And what do they actually gain from taking incredible risks?
