Chris Haffey: 666 Rail, Fake or Real ? (Repost)
Update: a part of the video was featured on Win Blog. This news was originally posted in February 2010.
Chris was recently featured on a “fake or real?” type of show on Pro Sieben (German TV).
They saw his infamous 666-rail clip on Youtube (originally from Lonnie Gallego’s video NOISE) and went all the way to Los Angeles so Chris could prove he could do it again.
A full translated transcript of the video is available here (check the description). Thanks Al Dolega & Meatlove.
666 Rail, Original Video:
The 666 Rail by Chris Haffey and Robert Guerrero, from Lonnie Gallegos’ 2002 video NOISE.

One of the interviewed women said “It must be fake, i know some skateboarders can’t hold up their grinds more than 4 or 5 meters”
How sad to see that people still mix up skating and skateboarding…

I don’t know if you guys understand the german. But one of the girl said that skateboarders can only grind a smale piece of rail :D :D :D
February 19th, 2010 at 2:54 pm
Hahaha, love the comments the presenters made about skateboarders not being able to do this. This is great exposure for the sport, hopefully some kid will go out and get a pair of skates as a result.
I’ve always wanted to see the 666 rail skated again, I want someone to ao fish the whole thing…

It never crossed my mind that anyone would think that was fake! Awesome seeing Haffey do it again!
February 19th, 2010 at 10:48 pm
I think that was fake because there was probably one camera and it shows about 4-6 camera positions which they edited to make u think he did it. idk u be the judge!
February 19th, 2010 at 11:03 pm
asiudhiaushdias quem duvida dele, foi la e provou que é possivel sem montagem muito bem haffey

February 20th, 2010 at 12:42 am

lol
February 20th, 2010 at 3:42 am
haffey is the best rollerblader alive!!
such a role model! not only because of his skating but his great personality!
February 20th, 2010 at 3:46 am
oh and for the people who said it was fake…
you cannot judge buy that new video alone even if it has tons of different angles…
I mean come on guys… chris haffey can do anything on blades and even if he didn´t grind that whole rail this time, it´s only because of the lack of time the german camera team had!
you know that he can do anything!
chris haffey is the michael jordan of rollerblading!!!
February 20th, 2010 at 3:47 am
I mean “by” the new video haha
February 20th, 2010 at 4:06 am
hahaha That was fucking gold! No idea whats there saying but lol. Such good positive attention for Blading.
February 20th, 2010 at 5:26 am
He could’ve gone way longer too but he ran out of rail.
February 20th, 2010 at 7:12 am
i only understand like 5% german but still, fuck “normal” people that don’t know shit about rolling. funny with the skateboard disses tho haha. haffey is the best ever to set his feet in a pair of skates and i still can’t even believe that people doubted that it was real..
February 20th, 2010 at 7:47 am
There was a Shawn Robertson sighting!
February 20th, 2010 at 9:47 am
chris haffey is always on top .. that was so so amazing He got the full control .. i mean if there’s a new video game of rollerblading chris haffey will get the 100% power and level DAAAMMMMN .
February 20th, 2010 at 12:09 pm
Haffey is The Best….
February 20th, 2010 at 12:23 pm
“He could’ve gone way longer too but he ran out of rail.”
Don’t do that to my brain!!!!!!!
He actually could as well! That’s horrifying!!!!!!!!!!!
February 20th, 2010 at 1:48 pm
nothing about that video was fake atall its terrible that you people have nothing better to do, and then making him do it again!? thats insane he could actualy DIE doing that, what then? if that happened you single handidly Killed rollerblading, you feel good now ?
February 20th, 2010 at 1:55 pm
Fuck Deutsch, englishhh please
February 20th, 2010 at 3:18 pm
“he could actualy DIE doing that, what then? if that happened you single handidly Killed rollerblading”
…he could’ve died the first time too and he didn’t get half as much attention back then. Its a dangerous sport, get used to it :-)
February 20th, 2010 at 6:32 pm
Even if Heck-$ is joking about the Jordans (cough cough) I must point out that the Jordans were designed after the remz. Maybe you should go to a jordan site and joke with them insted!!
Haffey is god!!
February 21st, 2010 at 12:08 am
Fricking brilliant! That must feel good to do it again after all these years:)-
February 21st, 2010 at 6:14 pm
SuperHaffey!!!!!!!
February 21st, 2010 at 6:16 pm
no body want to fuck with haffey, still being the best.
Keep it real!!!!!!
August 9th, 2011 at 1:23 pm
Those ones who keep comparing rollerblading and skateboarding are just as stupid as the woman in the video ,that really pisses me off when I see an amazing trick like this and the next thing I see is someone saying “Duh… I wanna see a skateboarder do that”
Do your own thing! Have fun and represent your sport the best way you can. you guys don’t need any other sport as a parameter,that’s just my opinion.
Peace!
August 9th, 2011 at 1:48 pm
james haffey dying on frontside lol i dont think soo mate
August 9th, 2011 at 3:18 pm
taig chris would grind half of it and say he set a world record
August 9th, 2011 at 3:40 pm
after fall at the end
August 9th, 2011 at 4:04 pm
This fucking guy is single handedly saving rollerblading.
August 9th, 2011 at 4:29 pm
you know the problem with this all is. we all know it’s real but people will constantly get us confused as long as we aren’t on tv in front of them. It’s a matter of outta sight, outta mind. I’ve done rails half that size before so I can only imagine how difficult that rail was especially with that death drop on the other side of the first turn. regardless. Haffey in true form constantly up to the challenge showed them it’s very real. Skateboarders need to photoshop their shit cause their weak as fuck. We simply do cause we can. oh and I’ve never seen a wood pusher go even 3 meters/9 ft. on shit. except half pipe doing a cheating ass rolling on wheels 50/50 grind.
Give them tail slide and they go 2 ft. only. what a bunch of losers.
August 9th, 2011 at 4:56 pm
I don’t see Taig Khris doing no sweet shit like this…. Haffey ftw.. AND HE LANDED IT!
August 9th, 2011 at 5:58 pm
@ dyed red deshis:
I agree with you about people’s opinion,but you have just confirmed what I said before….”I need to be compared to a skateboarder so I can feel better about myself , cause I go bigger,I grind longer…. when you put it like that it just sounds stupid.
I do both sports and I just don’t care wich one is better than the other ’cause I understand that they’re completelly different and each one offers me different sensations. I said it once and I will always say! do your own thing and do it for the love! I’m 26 years old and I don’t give a fuck about any kind of fight between skateboardes, rollerbladers,bikers,surfers,scooters rally car drivers or whatever. Leave the hate for the stupid childish internet kids.
August 9th, 2011 at 7:21 pm
@Rafael:
You’re one of the very rare people that skates. however if you skate long enough you’ll get into fights cause you have people that do stupid things.
This stuff in all reality is truly stupid. This whole fight, cause at the end of the day it’s just a sport. However, the difference is, in the world of blading we’ve actually lost people due to them getting jumped by skateboarders and we’ve also lost a ton of money due to their ignorance which fuels the hatred.
August 9th, 2011 at 7:31 pm
BTW Congrats on being able to do both. I’ve seen this footage many times never saw the part of Rob G. until now. super sick
August 10th, 2011 at 12:30 am
as seen on B..3..-..m..4..g..dot…com
August 10th, 2011 at 6:29 am
lolololololololololololol
August 10th, 2011 at 12:28 pm
@dyed red deshis- I remember dealing with all of the hostility back in the 90′s shit was ridiculous but I think it needed to happen. Back then the rollerblading scene was filled with Taig Khris’s. People were landed sketchy tricks and expecting praise for it. That’s basically all I remember seeing on TV and when I go out rollerblading, I still say I’m going out to skate. So people would always compare our sport to skateboarding and the sketchy half assed tricks blasted all over television made rollerblading the weaker sport. I think breaking off and doing our own thing with WRS is the seed that needed to be planted. We’re finally separated from all things skateboarding associated and, so far, the response has been decent and getting better. We’re starting to get more big money events and doing comps on shit made for rollerblading by rollerbladers. So now the industry can show what we’re truly made of and it’s a hell of a lot more than sketchy as airs to butt slides.
August 10th, 2011 at 2:05 pm
FUK YOU AND YOUR SKATEBOARDING NO ONE GIVES A SHIT. And just because you do both doesn’t mean shit. Skateboarding will always be mainstream and kids will always carry a skateboard around and think they are cool. Fuck Bam fuk tony hawk fuk SHAWN ROBERTSON AND HIS STUPID TARGET CLOTHING LINE. FUK ANY SKATEBOARDING TOY I’VE SEEN EVER. I bet when people find out you blade your quick to say “oh but i skateboard too” so that makes you really fucking cool. On another note chris haffey is a beast and this rules. P.S. get a fuking life dyed red deshis I’m sick of hearing your face
August 10th, 2011 at 3:42 pm
people just trying to shut haffey down because hes doing so well.
August 10th, 2011 at 4:28 pm
No one seems to be commenting on how unlikely it is that Haffey just happened to be at the skatepark at the time when they went to ask people about the video. Seems FAKE!!!
August 10th, 2011 at 9:36 pm
yeah red deshi is one of those people that has to open his mouth no matter what.
August 10th, 2011 at 10:51 pm
You said it all!
and for “traducer” , that really hurts me …..some random kid told me to fuck skateboarding… i’m really considering killing myself for that…..kids…
August 11th, 2011 at 3:06 am
That was a sweet frontside.
August 11th, 2011 at 5:26 am
lol I showed that to my sister and she thought it was fake until I switch to his drip drop section…
