Although born in Carinbah, Robbie grew up in Kiama Downs, and from an early age became interested in riding. When he was old enough, Robbie immediately entered national motocross and supercross events, while still attending Kiama High School, where he would take an electrical apprenticeship. After high school ended, he continued with riding and was focused on improving his skills and tricks. His first win came at Bachus Marsh, Victoria, winning both amateur and pro motocross events.

In 2004 he participated in X Games, and after a performance of 13 flips, Robbie won the golden medal.

The next year marked the beginning of his re-writing world records and most daring stunts. At the Crusty Demons, he broke the Guinness world record with the superman seat grab of 75m. In 2007, at Caesars Palace he set the motorcycle jumping record with 98.34m travelled on a motorbike; the event was live on ESPN. The following year he was even more successful, breaking his own record twice. He performed three jumps at the Crusty Demons Night of World Records, held in Melbourne, Australia; in his first jump he recorded only 316 feet, or 96,32m, and the second try was rather more successful, setting the record of 342 feet and 7 inches, or 104.42m. However, he was dissatisfied with the jump and repeated the venture, this time recording 350.98 feet, or 106.98m. His next accomplishment was the 96 feet, or 29m jump up onto the Arc de Triomphe in front of Paris Las Vegas in 2009. That same year, Robbie also participated in the red Bull X-Fighters competition, and won the event by defeating some of the most successful freestyle riders, including Nate Adams, Mat Rebeaud and Eigo Sato.

His net worth was rising all the time.

His 2009 was even more successful when he jumped Tower Bridge in London with a backflip. During this stunt, the drawbridge was open by 25 feet, which tells even more how special and difficult this achievement was.

2010 brought new thrills to Robbie; he did a moto-x jump over the Corinth Canal in Greece, and jumped over the start gantry at the Formula One Grand Prix in Melbourne, Australia, among other ventures. In 2011, he tried to jump over San Diego Bay, but was several feet short, due to bad conditions, which included dark, fog and reduced traction.

In 2012 he appeared on television, doing the motorbike stunt for the film “Skyfall”, as a Daniel Craig double. He received an SAG award, and also Taurus world stunt award.

Most recently he rode a modified dirt motorbike on a wave near Teahupoo in Tahiti; he was apparently preparing around two years for the performance. Thankfully, all went well, and now, Robbie is looking for more stunts.

Regarding his personal life, Robbie is married to his high school sweetheart Amy Sanders-Maddison since 2010; the couple has one child together.

Robbie earned the nickname “Maddo”, because of his last name and his stunts; his friends describe him as “a nutter”.

MC Hammer’s net worth, biography, fact, career, awards and life story

MC Hammer net worth: MC Hammer is an American rapper, entertainer and dancer who has a net worth of $2 million. At the peak of his career in the 1990s, Hammer’s personal fortune topped $70 million. Unfortunately he lost most of his wealth through extreme personal expenditures. He filed for bankruptcy in 1996. MC Hammer is notable for his unique dancing skills and outlandish fashion. Early Life: MC Hammer was born Stanley Kirk Burrell on March 30, 1962 in Oakland, California. He grew up poor with his mother, who worked a secretary, his father, a professional poker player, and eight siblings in a three-bedroom housing project apartment in East Oakland. The Burrell family would sell stray baseballs in the Oakland Coliseum parking lot. The Oakland Athletic’s team owner, Charles Finley, saw 11-year-old Stanley doing the splits and dancing in the parking lot one day and hired him as a clubhouse assistant and batboy. He served as batboy from 1973-1980. He got the nickname M.C. for being a “Master of Ceremonies” during his time with the A’s. Burrell graduated from McClymonds High School in Oakland and then joined the U.S Navy. He served for three years as a Petty Officer until he was honorably discharged. Career:  MC Hammer achieved immense popularity in the late 1980s with his innovative presentations of “pop rap.” He is also the first rap artist to achieve Diamond status for an album. Considered a sellout by many in the rap community for his mainstream approach to rap, he is nevertheless one of the best-known rappers of all time and an entertainer who is also known for his flamboyant dance techniques. Hammer began rapping in small venues around the Oakland area. After a record deal fell through, he borrowed $20,000 from both Mike Davis and Dwayne Murphy, former Oakland A’s players. With the cash, MC Hammer started a record label called Bust It Productions. He sold records out of his basement and car to keep the company going. Bust It Productions eventually turned to Bustin’ Records, with MC working as CEO. MC Hammer released his first album under his own label, Feel My Power, in 1987. It sold over 60,000 copies. The singles Let’s Get it Started and Ring ‘Em got moderate radio play and became popular tracks at local nightclubs. Hammer’s unique and infectious stage persona led to his big break in 1998, when he impressed a Capitol Records executive who was in the audience at one of Hammer’s shows at an Oakland club. Hammer signed a record deal and secured a $1,750,00 advance. MC Hammer scored his biggest hit with the single, “U Can’t Touch This,” off 1990’s Please Hammer, Don’t Hurt ‘Em. The single topped the Billboard chart and the album was No. 1 for 21 weeks. The song continues to be a cult-classic. Hammer toured in support of the album extensively throughout Europe in 1991. The album was notable for sampling famous artists such as Prince, The Jackson 5, Marvin Gaye, and Faith No More. Hammer released his next giant hit, Too Legit To Quit, in 1991. The title track was the biggest hit from the record, which peaked in the top five of the Billboard 200. Hammer set off on a grandiose and lavish tour in support of the album, with Boyz II Men as the opening act. The video for “2 Legit 2 Quit” featured so many celebrity appearances that it is ranked as one of the most expensive videos ever made. The album went multi-platinum. MC Hammer went on to release seven more studio albums, all ranging from moderate to much success, his last being in 2009. Hammer has sold over 50 million records worldwide and has headlined numerous world tours. MC Hammer has won three Grammys and several other awards, including various lifetime achievement awards. His top singles live in infamy and are still used in commercials, ads, and film today. He has since worked as an ordained preacher and has been a TV show host and a dance competition judge. He’s also dabbled in acting and producing. MC Hammer produced and starred in his own movie, 1990’s Please Hammer Don’t Hurt ‘Em: The Movie. In 2008, he helped create the dance website, Dance Jam. He is also CEO of his own record label and Executive Producer of his own short-lived reality TV show, “Hammertime.” He is now working on a new tech start-up, a search engine called WireDoo. MC Hammer Bankruptcy: MC Hammer had a very public bankruptcy, but has since recovered with new album releases, his record label management and other entrepreneurial ventures. Hammer’s peak earning year was 1991 when he took home more than $33 million. Despite these mega earning years, Hammer was able to wrack up $14 million worth of debt forcing him to file for bankruptcy in 1996. Hammer blew his money on dozens of luxury sports cars, airplanes, a record company and a 12 acre home in Fremont, California. He spent $30 million building the home from scratch in the hills above the rough neighborhood where he grew up. The 40,000 square foot mansion featured a bowling alley, Italian marble floors, two swimming pools, multiple tennis courts, recording studio, a 17 car garage and a baseball diamond. After declaring bankruptcy, the property was eventually sold for $6.8 million. Hammer was also notorious for having a huge entourage. He reportedly spent $500,000 a month on his entourage alone at the peak of his fame. As of December 2013, Hammer still owed the IRS $800,000 in back taxes and penalties related to income from 1996 and 1997. According to several released legal documents, every dollar that Hammer earns to this day must first go to the IRS before being distributed to him personally. Personal Life: Hammer lives in a relatively modest ranch-style house in Tracy, California with his wife Stephanie (who has been married to since 1985), and their five children, Bobby, Jeremiah, Sammy, Sarah, and A’keiba. Hammer frequently posts on social media and is, at present, consulting for or investing in eight tech companies. Hammer has said he spends 10-12 hours daily working on various tech projects and Tweets 30-40 times per day.
