Chat with Mike Metzger

Welcome to The Show! On Thursday, X Games gold medalist Mike Metzger will stop by to chat just before his attempts a record-breaking motocycle jump live on ESPN and ESPN HD! (8:30 p.m. ET)

In coordination with the May 5 release of Mission: Impossible III and the 40th anniversary of Caesars Palace this August, ESPN and ESPN HD will showcase Metzger in a live telecast as he attempts to set a world record and become the first rider to successfully perform a backflip over the fountains at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. The fountains are famous for the legendary motorcycle jump attempted in 1968 by Evel Knievel.

Metzger, a five-time X Games medalist, is known for his legendary performance at X Games VIII when he won double gold in Moto X Best Trick and Freestyle, and became the first rider to land back-to-back flips in the history of the sport.

This is the last interview Mike is doing before the jump, so take full advantage and get your questions in now and check back at 4:30 p.m. ET to see his answers.

This chat is exclusive to ESPN Insiders
