You can just step off the side of the road, even a bike could ride on gravel and minor road debris.
Rollerblades need near perfect surface to function. Even a rumble strip would push him closer to the road, and roller blades need a wider path that running or a bike. Even in a traffic lane would be difficult for long stretches.
Like, I’m trying to cut the guy some slack since he’s Norwegian, but if he was living in America he should have released this wasn’t really possible.
I mean there are people that ran across it. Some guy did it 5 times lol. Rollerblading doesn’t seem that bad by comparison.
Running would be safer…

Not even getting into the mountain/desert issue
You can run in dirt, rocks, and grass along the shoulder. You can only rollerblade on smooth surfaces like roads.
Also there’s tonnes of old access roads, trails, and even bushwhacking you could do as needed with hiking or running.
