EXTREME PENNY FARTHING BIKE VS POWERFUL PARAMOTOR!

- Extreme penny farthing bike vs Powerful paramotor! I go as fast as possible on the penny farthing retro MTB using a 2 stroke engine paramotor strapped to my back and things got scary, would you try this craziness?
I had the bright idea to put the paramotor engine on my back and go as fast as possible on my penny farthing and what a ridiculous idea it was but also the best fun ever too! After a small modification to the bike by taking off the pedals and fitting cranks it was time to fly by on this retro MTB freeride machine but would the bike last? With the added weight to the frame I was really worried the bike might snap and end me....
Is this the craziest bike challenge yet?
I hope you enjoy the video!

Just imagine walking past this, not knowing him 😂 has to be the funniest thing ever!! LOVE IT ❤❤❤
Be tt
Yvtwhwyt😢 hi r 🎉g
😂👍🏼
Guarantee people at the park will be tell stories at the dinner table about it for a long time!!
A news reporter interviewing someone and he goes past in the background....
Sam doesn't have a death wish, he has a life wish
And unlike most CZcamsrs he has a few screws loose lol
As they said in Fight Club, "You just had a near life experience."
May not have a death wish, but certainly has suicidal tendencies,,, definitely a " Here hold my Beer" personality 😂.
Next video Rocket powered four wheel drive roller skates
He's dead?
I love how Sam says we just need to make this a little safer but still totally dangerous. You just know he's about to have fun. Lewi is probably trying not to laugh behind the camera but I bet he's having just as much fun as Sam is. Penny Farthings might make a comeback thanks to Sam.
Extreme penny farthing, who knew it was the dream? We do now thanks to Sam and Lewi LOL Keep up the great work you two!
This video answers the question, “What would happen if you never grew up” but also continued developing top-level skills and had adult money. I love it. Sam, you are a legend sir.
I love these Sam. But I can not stress enough how incredibly dangerous it is to ground start those. Just don’t. Imagine if the throttle you just mentioned stuck open while in the ground. You’re gonna lose limbs. Just toss it on your back and start it mate. There’s a couple really important rules to paramotors and that one is nearly #1
Just want you to be able to keep making vids man. ❤❤ love ya. Cheers!
Theres also the chance that if he fell off and shattered the prop that bits of it could hit members of the public. And also during a crash he could easily lose a hand. I'm all for fun and games but c'mon man, do it in a safe and controlled environment.
@@StreetPete if only. he's got non-working brakes, a flimsy bendy frame and a sticky throttle. PILLOCK. GROW UP
If it's on your back and the throttle is stuck open does it just pin you on the ground and is there a kill switch you can reach?
@Dylan -
The red button on the throttle is the "kill switch."
He's overdramatising but, it can be a very dangerous situation especially if you aren't used to the power, thrust, and weight being on your back.
"Turtling" can be a problem, also.
When airborne under a wing (parachute-like unit) you don't feel the weight as you are basically suspended in the frame while the wing carries the weight of the paramotor.
''Is it a bird, is it a plane'' 😂
Man you always find a way to crack me up and that's hard nowadays, cheers Sam!
From an efficiency point of view, the Penny Farthing bicycle is perfect match for a paramotor. If you can weld some bracing to the frame, it will be able to withstand the stresses a bit better and upgrade the brake to a disc. Super-dangerous but this was the best video ever.
Thanks for the laughs and smiles, Pilgrim. Didn't know I needed this today.
Before this video even starts I feel like Sam is just trying to get hurt but in a way that seems like it was made up.... How do you explain propeller injuries while riding a pennyfarthing¿? 😂
Edit: 5:50 - OMG, this POV is the first time I've seen actual fear on Sam's face and I can't stop laughing... 🤣🤣🤣
Sam, you're insane. Thanks for the fun content
Glad ya liked it!!
Omg! This combo is pure death! Imagine getting your foot tangled into the spokes and going OTB before your head gets chopped by that prop! Crazy
Stellar as always. Never thought that i would see a paramotor used while on a Penny Farthing. Amazing
Sam, you're the best man. My son and I have had so much fun watching your vids together. I love that you keep it clean too for all of us.
Indeed, kid friendly content is the dream!
Especially when it's adult friendly
Today is indeed, going to be epic! Glad we get to see Sam risk his life so none of us have too! Love these videos!
I love all of the people that just keep walking like they see something like this every day. Also takes the time to put on foot pegs, totally ignores the lack of brakes.
"just keep walking like they see something like this every day" Because they see FOOLS like this EVERY day, Fools whose grasp on life is limited by a need to grow up
I've ridden in PPC on a trike setup and I'd compare the experience like that of a mx dirt bike as far as the acceleration and speed those props can give.
Like he's not exaggerating you can flat haul azz with those.
🤘Sam you are my spirit animal man
I’d love to see you do a collaboration with Colin Furze. You two are both as mad as each other and I can just imagine the cool project he could build for you 💥
This is my favorite series. Penny farthing deserves its own CZcams channel. Modify and keep riding brother
I'm so glad you brought this bike out again 😂 the first video was hilarious
Today was EPIC! Sam and Lewi y'all rock! I love how your just living life pushing it to the limit! Peace
"living life pushing it to the limit" CLEARLY BOTH SAM AND YOU HAVE SOMEWHAT LIMITED HORIZONS......................
Truly ridiculous but very well executed! Big up Pilgs
The exitement and fear are so genuine in this video. Epic!
You are just a great human being such great love for life this world needs more Sam 😂 thanks.
Absolutely amazing, quite like to see you use the paraprop for paragliding, or mount it to big board with 4 wheels and make a land based air boat/car
Crazy stuff mate. Imagine launching on that contraption. Be careful with 2stroke motor as they always go fastest when running out of fuel and sometimes rev so hard without input of throttle. Happened to few of us on our motocross bikes. Awesome work mate Avagud1
Glorious. Best word to describe everything about this. Glorious.
Man that was hilarious! Penny Farthing, paramotor, no brakes, little control.... What could possibly go wrong?! Imagine going over the bars with that thing strapped to your back! hahahaha.
literally keeps getting better and better each time!!!
Simply insane....the imagination Sam has is as endless as a black hole ..cheers 🇨🇦
You must be meaning, the blinding flares of his sparkling creativity are outshining entire galaxy clusters with the attractivity of a life supporting gold Magnetar with a solid diamond planetary belt, spoiling any heavenly body falling into orbit with unimaginable wealth and happiness?
Where else can you get this level of quality entertainment 😂😂 Sam is the best. I'm cracking up lol
Sam you make me happy. I can’t be mad at problems in my life with you around 😂
Lol Sam is just loving life out there. And trying to end all in one go!
This is NEXT LEVEL CRAZINESS!! AWESOME on you Sam... If anyone can do it Sam can!!
Rad stuff bro keep shredding
Yes I’m so excited new video!!! 🎉
That paramotor looks like it took a good bash at one point! I especially like how no effort to make the brakes even semi-functional was made since the last video 😂
Can tell by sams engine noises how stoked he was for this 😂, aww man this made my day bro 🤟
Awesome
Try setting the cranks in time with each other!
It’s amazing how Sam has still thinks Of crazy ways to make content considering He’s done and made every single MTB Contant on YT it’s amazing how we can still think of crazy things and ways to make his content big respect BRO
Thanks mate!!! 👌😁
@@SamPilgrim you’re welcome everybody thinks YT is easy it’s not especially the amount of time you have done it you have to Think of new and crazy Contant to create you’re definitely the champion of the champion of crazy content Much appreciate itlol
That was really fun to watch
This is the funniest thing I've seen Sam make. Leaf blowing
So freaking sick my guy!! I have never seen you actually scared. Your face says it all.
The first penny farthing was my favorite video 😂glad to see it again
This is what CZcams is for, just awesome 😂 the look on your face mate is golden
Loved this one mate, what an absolute contraption of doom! It would be way too dangerous but imagine the penny farthing down a stair set of doom…
😂 would be amazing!! Just give him a couple Monnie's and he'd be up for it! There's got to be a company out there who make inflatable stairs..!
i'd love SP to do that................. so that he can kiss reality
Love it!!! Build your own penny farthing, Sam!!
I can't imagine how many years the Rozzers would lock you up for if they had caught you using an un-shrouded paramotor on your back, on a penny farthing (with no brakes) in a public field with children and grannies about 😆 this vid is insane. I love it.
Youre literally the cowboy colin furze and I love it - youre the best.
Always entertaining. How about testing the uphill capabilities of the paramotor? Would be epic.
Ye it’s a bike park uplift 😂
A prop like that doesn’t provide much at slow speed to push up a hill. It’s more for speed. That’s why prop powered cars didn’t work well. They’d get good speed, but also get stuck on hills.
Yes been waiting all my life to hear the words let's take this penny farthing to the next level
Nice one Sam! To Redbull rampage or some slopestyle event...? To the skyyyyyy 🤘🤙
Quite simply. A legend 👊🏼🔥
So crazy man. I love it.
Take that to the skatepark... THAT WOULD BE GNARLY..U CAN DO IT SAM 🙏
My man. Absolute stuff of legends.
The original penny farthing video was the first Sam Pilgrim video I ever saw. It was great! I'm nearly all the way caught up on the other videos now.
I absolutely love your videos and you inspire me to be the best of myself ❤
The reason why I like Sam is coz he shows everyone how to have fun on bikes.
Dude, you make the BEST videos. Always a good day when this channel has a new upload. Keep up the entertaining antics!
Seth’s Bike Hacks: penny farthings were sketchy.

Sammy P: Hold my Monny
Another penny farthing vlog! "Penny farthing is... A DREAM!" LOVING IT!😀
So hilarious to see! Genius Sam!
Banger! 10/10
It’s when Sam says it’s too much…..
You really start to worry!!'!
😂😂
You just know something else is around the corner.
a friend used to have a square fronted boat with an engine and you could steer it standing up by weighting each leg, now imagine a frame to hold onto on a boat standing with the paramotor, EPIC summer cruising!!
First time (surprisingly) that I was actually terrified for you mate! Very very funny though, since you didn't get moled into the field 😂
I love this so much
What possible could go wrong 🤣. This is funniest thing ever! Some day i wanna try same but in skates and ice. Thanks, this was hilarious.
Ridiculous but brilliant,classic Pilgrim 🤙🏼
Insane Sam! 😂🤘
That was thoroughly enjoyable 😂
Best episode so far 😂 🤘
Hahaha absolutely ridiculous 😂, pretty sure its ok to be a bit scared when ur about to get on the only penny farthing with stunt pegs and a giant food blender on ur back lol.
U should get some gussets welded on above n below the head tube for more sends. Epic vid man
Hey Sam, don’t kill yourself over some klick‘s! Keep the fun up, but we would love to see more from you for a long time.
hi sam, been watching your vids recently and havnt seen many stairsets of doom, I live in Hampshire and when out on a ride near Winchester I went down a stairset of 333 continuous steps with 45 m of elevation down st Catherines hill. Its So Sick. there are tonnes of other natural features and about 3 minutes away are some massive dirt jumps that were famous in the early 2000s. there are cool vids of it on YT.
Epic upload! How about setting up a Hopper ramp, and jump for distance with a paramotor launch assist? Keep doing what you do 👍‼️
Heya mate ! Gotta say u love ypur content and enthusiasm, its infectious! Much love from Alberta Canada 🇨🇦
This was extremely epic!!!!
The flex in that frame while it's flying along!
Love the video dude was epic
Yess sam love these videos😂
Thank you sam to show us things like this you don't see even in circus! 🎪😂
I have the same shoes but in blue. Leatt 3.0 pro. Excellent choice.
Proper laughed out loud. Nice one Sam 👍🏻
When Sam looks scared you know its a truly bonkers idea 😂
That was awesome!!!
Melted wheel rims. Melted shoes. Sam, you are completely certifiable. Couple of ideas. Would the massive leaf-blower death paramotor work on a skateboard? Could you turn the death penny-farthing into a death penny-farthing recumbent (with a hacksaw and a hammer?)
What a sick idea bro!! 😂😂😂! How cool!! 😂😂😂🎉
what an absolute boss this guy
The look on your face when you couldn't stop and the throttle was locking up was priceless. I think it was the first time you showed some real oh shit I'm going to bite the dust.
I've seen a lot of dangerous things on the internet, but this is up there.
thats more than epic!
This would be epic on one of those quad mtbs for paraplegics. The side by was cool but the quad has suspension and actual brakes!
He's going to BECOME a paraplegic doing this lmao
This is one of the best combinations of old tech meets new tech
Nice one! I have a penny farthing and use a jet pack to rip down A line, its soo much fun!
Pure excitement how good.
what a Hero. Not the hero we want, but the Hero we deserve. wait, he is exactly the Hero we Want !
Super video 👍
Sam Pilgrim has access to some of the best bikes in the world...gets a penny farthing and a big ol' fan strapped to his back. bring on the good times.
