Watch record-breaking motorcycle jump: Motocross daredevil Colby Raha soars into history

STURGIS, SOUTH DAKOTA — Sturgis Motocross daredevil Colby Raha made history on Aug. 2 when he broke the Harley-Davidson distance jump world record, landing a 205-foot jump as thousands of fans cheered on. Raha, 30, shattered the world record on the second day of the 85th Annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally at the Thunderdome as he zoomed about 80 miles per hour toward a jump ramp. The motorcycle rally is held in the western South Dakota town, and takes place over 10 days. "You don't see anyone else lining up to do this," said Raha, before attempting to break the 15-year record previously held by motorcyclist and stunt performer Seth Enslow. Enslow had owned the record since 2010, when he rode a modified Harley-Davidson XR1200 Sportster and made a world record jump of 183.7 feet in Australia. The jump was first benchmarked by Evel Knievel, a stunt performer and entertainer, in 1975. X Games adds new twist: An artificial intelligence judge for snowboard event After four attempts, Raha successfully soared 205 feet on a 550 pound V-Twin Harley-Davidson Sportster. "This jump at the Thunderdome in Sturgis channeled the spirit of Evel Knievel, an absolute legend of the sport. And I'm beyond stoked to have landed it as part of my Record Breakers event,' Raha said. 'It was a dream to push the limits at the Thunderdome, and I felt really dialed in the whole time. I'm grateful for the support from Rockstar Energy and all the partners who helped make this world record attempt possible.' Raha is known for his debut in 2017, when he won gold at the X Games in Minneapolis for the QuarterPipe High Air. He's earned 11 more medals since competing in the X Games.

Sean ‘Diddy' Combs' ex Gina Hyunh — who dropped out of his case as ‘Victim 3' — writes letter to judge pushing for his release

An ex-girlfriend of Sean 'Diddy' Combs who was supposed to testify against him in his criminal case, but mysteriously dropped out days before the trial began has written a letter to the judge pushing for Combs' release on bail. Virginia Huynh, who goes by 'Gina,' was part of the prosecution's case against Combs, initially anonymously referred to as 'Victim-3.' Before the trial began, prosecutors alerted the court they could no longer locate 'Victim-3' and they had lost touch with her and her attorney. Now, in their latest attempt to get Combs released on bail ahead of his sentencing, Combs' defense has included a letter from 'Victim-3,' who for the first time has identified herself by name. In the letter, Huynh wrote to the judge she does not believe Combs is a danger to the community and he is a committed family man 'who has not been violent in many years.' Huynh's letter was included as an exhibit in the defense's latest filing, their reply to the prosecution's opposition to releasing Combs on bail ahead of his sentencing, which is set for October 3. Combs was convicted by a jury last month on two charges of transpiration to engage in prostitution but acquitted on more serious charges which would have put him behind bars for decades or for life: racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. In the letter, Huynh said she has known Combs for years, both professionally and personally. She acknowledged her relationship with the disgraced mogul 'was not always perfect,' but 'he was willing to acknowledge his mistakes and make betterdecisions in the future.' 'By the time our relationship ended, he embodied an energy of love, patience and gentleness that was markedly different from his past behavior. To my knowledge, he has not been violent for many years, and he has been committed to being a father first,' the letter stated. 'I am writing because I do not view Mr. Combs as a danger to me or to the community.' CNN has reached out to Huynh and to the US District Court for the Southern District of New York for comment. Combs' defense has asked the court to release him on bail on a $50 million bond. They have argued he is not a danger to the community and is not a flight risk. Last week, they also filed a motion, asking the judge to completely acquit him or give him a new trial, arguing he was unfairly prosecuted based on the Mann Act, calling his conviction 'unconstitutional.' 'This conviction stands alone, but it should not stand at all,' Combs' attorney Alexandra Shapiro wrote in the 62-page memorandum. Other witnesses in the case, including star witness, Cassie Ventura, previously wrote letters to the judge, pleading for him to remain incarcerated, telling the court they would fear for their safety if he were released from jail ahead of his sentencing. Combs was physically violent on numerous occasions with Ventura, and photographic and video evidence of her being assaulted was shown to the jury throughout the trial, including 2016 hotel surveillance footage of Combs beating Ventura, which was first released by CNN. In his decision to deny Combs bail immediately after the verdict, the judge cited Combs' admitted pattern of violence in his relationships.
