'Bermuda Cliff Jumping': 15-Year-Old's Video Of Vacation Adventures Goes Viral

First Posted: 02/14/2012 1:49 pm Updated: 02/14/2012 8:45 pm

Watch this video created by 15-year-old Giles Lorimer, a fun-loving student at the UK’s Rugby School, and you will be longing for summer days filled with swimming and sunshine. His YouTube channel, dcfcrams4ever, features self-directed videos of his adventures in nature, including jet skiing, "pool skating," and cliff jumping.

This particular installment in his YouTube series -- though posted in August -- has gone viral this week. For those of us enjoying cold winter weather right now, it's not surprising: Set to the tune of "Summer Paradise" by Simple Plan, the montage follows Giles and his friends, who are all between the ages of 14 and 16 according to the Royal Gazette, exploring the landscape of Bermuda on bikes, by foot, and in the water. Basically, the video is four minutes of crazy teenage fun in a gorgeous location.

Now, if you'll excuse us, we're going to watch the video one more time and pretend that we're on a tropical vacation, too.

Overprivilieged teens with pathetically sheltered musical 'taste' - and this has gone viral for what reason exactly?

wow,,,to be young again!,,,enjoy your youth,,,at that age,,summers go on forever,,,,and then 1 day
you wake up,,,and your 30,,,,,and in the blink of an eye,,,,,40

And another blink and you are 80!!!

I agree with Oscar Wilde - who said "Youth is wasted on the young"! However, I wish all young people today could have the kind of youth that I had. My mother never worried if I strayed from home for hours on end. Neighbors ALWAYS became friends and helped each other - even with their differences. Thumbs were used for things other then texting and using the remote control. Laying on the back lawn to identify the stars was considered fun - as was walking the beach in the rain!

I wouldn't want to be young in today's world! I know that is a 'negative', but having lived thru the 'best years' that this country has ever known allows me to make comparisons!

Could it be that this video is viral marketing by the camera company whose name is in the title?

15- Friends like you will never have again; health like you will never have again; adventure like you will never have again; a sense of invincibility that you will never have again.....but YOU captured it on film and in song....so you will be able to visit again and again. Good for you.

I did that when I was fifteen as well .

We had a place on the other side of aDam and it was great until a couple of kidsDied.
They then opened up theDam a bit more and the currents became too strong.

Alas you just don't think when you are kids.

growing up, there were a couple kids who after a big rain, thought it would be fun to go rafting in the town's drainage ways, they prob had a lot of fun, until they came to the whirlpool where the water was funneled under the highway. they got sucked under, and drowned while being flushed under the highway culvert.

I should upload my skydiving video! I had the look of someone being taken to the chair on my face as the plane went up!

To do list this summer: cliff jumping, deep-sea-diving, para gliding, and running of the bulls in Spain!

I always wanted to try cliff jumping. Next life, maybe. Fun video.

Gotta admit, I smiled. But you guys should have rode a bike off one of those cliffs. That would've been sweet..
