"Its gotta be clean" Mad respect!
I like the type of people who don't consider "almost" a win
He was not having that pat me on the back moment lol. 49m wasn't the deal.
That CZcams family
Before I go out to practice I just wanted to say he demonstrated his own tip about keeping your head up. Both times at 49m he was watching the line, dropped his head and body weight came forward. Made me happy to see him nail it!
@@TheBlutark34 that's what always happenes to me when I use to try manuals and try to reach the line it frustrated me so much đ
He was raging so hard he learned to bhop

7:01 learn how to bunny hop (already completed)
Bunny NOP
thats not a bunny hop, thats an english hop
@@Pet_Hedgehog it's still a bunnyhop. There are many, many old different versions of the bunnyhop, one of those being the english bunnyhop.
he needs to learn the american bunnyhop
justas drigotas dude itâs a joke
Around the 10 hour mark is when michaels true Scottish side began to show
Lol

Heh heh
I for-real checked the length of the video after seeing this comment
7:01 When someone can bunnyhop better than you unintentionally...
Thatâs sad if you canât bunny hop higher than that lmao.
@@tagdayley , you gotta start somewhere, right? But yeah, it is sad that I can't bunny hop very high at all...
Are you fricking kidding me!!!
@@tagdayley boi hows that sad if you have never bunny hopped
Santeri: Dude that is one of the easiest tricks to do on a bike. I can wheelie, bunny hop, tail whip, etc. next time think about what you are saying.
2:08 damn that transition was smooth
so smooth it needs a "slippery when wet" sticker
yeahf r
Ez to edit tho.
@@atanki5682 ok? I didn't ask...

Nice and calm , nice and calm
âFECKING EDIOT !!â
What was said "Michael that was it!"
What was meant "Can we go home now?"
Daley hahaha
Well, it actually was, his wheel didn't touch the ground until he was about an inch(2.54cm) past the line
@Cosmonauteable why do you have to be so nasty, who hurt you?
0:56 those are some clean looking clouds
Omg what the hell i just noticed
Vain's Memery not even moving
Maybe edited idkđ€·đŸââïž
@@humusstealr9982 why would he edit the fucking clouds?
@@guigo6892 to make it look good wtf?
Just imagine getting 49 meters twiceđđ
Oh wait....
đđđ
I am confusion
KingOfTheBushes Arkansas
i honestly couldnt imagine that cuz i physically am incapable of doing a thing like that
@@georgetown2180 BobbyPlaysYT fan found
every time he says â *this is the one* â
itâs shorter than the last one
And he learned to bunny hop while raging for not getting the 50 meter xD 6:58
Nikola Maric took me 2 months to do a clean hop while this guy did it and not even realize
Kuya Pops idk for me personally it was pretty easy to learn , you just kinda have to lift your legs up when you jump without releasing the peddals , but i didnt learn it by accident i practiced for a few days xD
Nikola Maric yh
Nikola Maric lol even tho I am pretty late watching this video I was going to say. At least he doesnât need to make a video on how to bunny hop.
exactly what I thought
This man can prove that anything is possible, it just takes time
bluey tRUE
"Borrowing a bike"
Mike - slams front tire into the ground rapidly lol
men its a bike, ever seen a vid. of mountain biking by Fabio or Danny???
It is actually a old style dirt jumper and they can survive nearly anything
Before anyone looks too far into my comment, I was joking, it was supposed to be funny, NOT taken seriously haha
He dident just pound th ground, he but a bit of stress on the disk break
Itâs got suspension and thick tyres and probably freeride rims that bike can survive 15 foot gap jumps nevermind lightly hitting it in the ground
2:09 that spin was cool
Nothing is more funny tgan a Scottish man getting pissed of
I would argue that a Scottish man excitedly happy is funnier, but both are funny non the less.
Talk about being pissst
An Irishman is very similar. Hilarious.
We all get pissed aff
@@AmmarNazhanAgain tho
I really liked the editing technique from 3:15, it's like a training montage, but it's cleverer
I also liked the almost final attempt before tea, with all the frustration, swearing, censoring sounds at those swearing and whenever the wheel touched the ground, and the "this is the one, Mike" shouts
it's just one clip fading into the last clip.. super basic stuff
faceballbat Yeah, but it looks really cool.
spinakker14 r
clevererererererererer
3:37
Me trying to learn anything every time
I had the biggest smile when you finally hit it! Thanks for including the frustrations you went through, that kind of honesty is the best lesson in my book. Too many "how to" vids don't teach enough about how to deal with failure, and finally succeeding because of hard work and not settling for a coming up a few inches short.
I like how we can really tell your control over the bike as a whole improves as you learn how to manual. I'm not sure how much you noticed, but it's really clear that you learning how to manual improved your bike handling in other aspects. You were doing clean bunnyhops in your anger at being unable to manual.
âItâs gotta be cleanâ this is why I like his channel
nice hh pic
Oh
â *MICHEAL THAT WAS IT!!!* â
Micheal: *It gotta be clean >:c*
8:30
Legend says that the front wheel never touched the ground again
Omg, lol
At 7:23 you learned how to test the front suspension on bikes
KTsherlock 27 really?
XD
KTsherlock 27 I'm haha right

Learn to handstand
Wolfy Mine yes!!
Wolfy Mine handstand walk
Wolfy Mine yes pls!
Kevin yeah handstand walk would be great
For 2 minutes or more
What you said about looking where you want to go is an amazing tip. Manualed further than i ever thought i could. Try to keep low, relax, and look where you want to go. Just amazing. Thank you my dude.
Don't forget a cup of tea can work wonders!
Watching a short angry Scottish man jumping up and down with his bike is probably the funniest thing I watch.
Love the content btw
Edit: Gotta keep it on the magic number
they destroied it...
7:05 Now that's a face of an angry Scot đ
Or a japanese samurai painting
So my wheelies are actually manuals?
Like wtf .. What is the difference help lol i cant do both
@@ashrafkhateeb502 if ur doing a wheelie you have pedal
@@emilw2455 you actually don't have to pedal to wheelie
@@emilw2455 check out lil harry's video on wheelies to see what I'm talking about
Pika Brothers no
I have subtitles on for no reason and when he started playing the clips after he had done it the subtitles said "Intense manualing" and i lost it XD
5:00 "..and I can't get it back up, that's a problem I've had all the way through this endeavor."
:D
This just makes me want to get on my bike and try this so bad
You deserve so many more subs
Thanks for the video! I'm a 52 year old trying to learn how to manual on a soft tail mountain bike. My back hurts and my attempts look like yours. Thanks for sharing your fails. It's so encouraging to see someone else struggle like me ;-)
Soft tail? I think you mean hard tail. Unless you have a full suspension.
7:31 me about everything and anything.
HAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAH
Never dissapoints
NegativeFeedback wow
Wait.....
7:13 pause it he actually did it
But heâs was going for true success
âA cup of tea can work wondersâ some UK shit right there
This is legit. The learning process and the curve, I can relate to you sir and I think now itâs my turn to try this out. This is awesome! Stay safe sir!
I just found your channel today i think, and I think this may be one of the best channels on YT. Your videos are so wholesome and you're going out there, having fun, meeting goals, and capturing excellent high quality content. I can really feel the emotion when you were struggling in this video, and especially when you finally nailed it. Keep it up.
I love the fact that whenever he says: "This is the one" he gets like 9 meters.
8:12 Reaction is GOLD
at 8:52 someon fall in the back grond XD in whos whatching thi in 2019
đđđ
Good spotting
Epic spelling
@@manwithaids177 calm down jesus christ
iiCrunchGamez _ anger issues
Damn it. How do you guys make it look so damn easy?
Because he did it over days
Eric Jon Po how does that look easy? Did you see how much work he had to put in! Full on grind..
Jonathan Castelino Not at all lol
Just practice, I was surprised when he learned to do this in a couple of days, then I started "actually" trying and it worked, just a couple of days of putting a lot of effort and it will come to you naturally
I can wheelie for a few minutes but Iâm terrified to manual.
Rad videos bro! What about learning a butterfly knife?
Metal Jesse they are illegal in the uk arenât they
ReZu REFLUX you can get trainers i believe
AceJHD oh like the dull ones I've seen them before
yes that would be so cool!
They are illegal
I never thought you could rage mid-ride
You cannot imagine how i have laughed because you are at the same time funny but you don't joke with it, until you reach those 50 meters !!! A very beautiful life's lesson
You should try to see if you can still do what you have done on learn quick.
learn to walk on the water
Patryk WaĆach how to do this quick?
Asaf852000 I-II
lol i was born with that talent
Learn to teleport
BrandonBondig you're jesus?
I Can't believe how emotional I got watching you nail this! I asked for a unicycle as a present for my 47th birthday. I didnt ride it for 6 months but was riding all the way around the basketball courts well before I turned 48.
Perseverance and sleeping on it. The sleeping part is a BIG deal for locking in the 'muscle' memory
Great video! This is the first manual tutorial that I think truly outlines the frustration involved with trying to learn this skill. I also noticed my back and arms were sore and I thought I was the only one that experienced that. Love the videos, keep it up, Mike!
lol i started clapping, when you finished this learn-quick-challenge :-D i was so happy (so weird)
+switchhax happy to felt the same as me then! Cheers for the comment!
maybe - just maybe - i should try some of these challenges by my self :-D
Mike Boyd may I know what bike you are using??
zyloh zyloh Its a dirt jumper bike and most people who dirt jump build their bikes from specific parts. To get a bike exactly like this one would be hard, because alot of dirt jumper get custom everything, even down to spokes, rims, etc
Midas Sandahl what is a bike similar to this ??
Learn to handstand walk for a few metres.
6:33 manual run is too funnyđ
This is one of the best videos I've seen on mountain biking to date.
Clear explanations on how to do stuff. Keep up the good work buddy. you have one new subscriber.
The legend says he is still manualling to this day.
Now learn to barspin on a bmx!!!
Deevn yes!!
but what type of barspin?
pick up barspin: 1 hour
hop barspin: 15-20 hours
he should do 180
djaddict13 hop bar ofcourse the pickup isnt that hard it took me less then an hour to learn it (actually 10-20 minutes)
Hang 5 a BMX
I just discovered this channel, and I love it! I happened to go to London around the same time back in 2017 and remember seeing a man doing a manual in one of the places that I visited .... AND HE LOOKS LIKE MIKE!!! I wish I knew you then!!
I like how your keep in your failures and frustration, it adds to the down to earthness of you as a person. And it makes me want to try to learn new things.
6:59 when you realize that trying is almost like failing without success.
Legends say he is manualling till now
i just love how happy you are when you accomplish it. And clean AF for that matter
I love that we got to see the grind you went through. Good stuff.
Man you're so lucky to have such a nice and supportive life Partner (God bless you both and to your team)
i still watch this from time to time because the level of excitement and happiness i also feel when he accomplishes the 50m mark is amazing
Learning how to wheelie first, is key. Manuals are next level cool, and they will be learned.
That's what I call Perfectionism. Well done Boy
The montage after the 50 meters was all in 1 go
Learn to do handstand push-ups
Legend says heâs still manualing to this day
the look where you wanna go is brilliant because thats how you learn to ride a bike in the first place- stop looking down at the wobbly wheels and look forward and your innate sense of balance will guide you
7:01 He got so upset that he accidentally performed bunny hops without learning it
Whoâs watching this during qaurantine in 2020 Coronavirus
Terrorising my estate learning to manual is my "daily exercise" & it's great there's so little traffic too!
@@dewindoethdwl2798 Same, actually filming my progress as well. Stealing his ideas lol. Always wanted to learn a manual
Me too
Well, I can say that I've learned it. Now just need to learn the rest and done
Daniel Vaotangi Me so bored đ
Appreciate the effort you went through to get it clean, a lot of people would've called those 49m goes 50m, but you kept with it. Nice one
What a wonderfully amazing supportive and patient wife you have to put up with all you shenanigans! Mine would have left me 5 minutes into something like this. Sheâd be pissed that I have time to ride a bike but not enough time to rebuild the house from scratch. đ€Šââïž
Brilliant vid man! Smiled the whole way through, because I know how frustrating learning to manual is. Youâve got a steezy manual. And a patient missus lol
Gotta be clean!
Thank you man, you've inspired me to reach goals. Thank you so much.
I was so excited for you! I want to learn this on my bike.
I`m so happy to have found this channel! Great job! Keep it up!
"A cup of tea can work wonders"
Me: I wish I could say the same about my cooking skills.
Wow you are so motivating....I also love to learn things and can do many different things (but am really no master in any of them sadly). Setting milestones is a great way to motivate yourself as well. Found your channel because of the unicycle video. I always liked bikes and yeah could do manuals and stuff so I thought a unicycle would be easy to learn. Haven't tried yet and didn't check the dates on your video to place them in a timeline....we'll see :)
dude the excitement at the end of each video makes it for me
Love these vids mate. Awesome job
Learn to bunny hop high
Louis Tomlinson he did a low one when he was raging
6:59 he literally did a hop probably by accident correct me if im wrong
you say that like they're hard to do?
@@BradleyDavee no but im just surprised
thats an english bhop, not an american one
@@dfuzesavetf2147 who said it was an american one? lol
Thatâs incredibly easy to do with suspension forks, itâs literally like a trampoline
Iâm glad you still had your calm cup of tea, I threw mine against the wall after I cant even do a meter.
Must be an awesome feeling when you nail it!!
I don't understand why but all your videos make me smile. Keep going dude you're awesome :D
Same!
THIS IS THE ONE!
What a fun morning video Mike, congrats!
6:55 that moment when life hits you hard đ
Learn to track stand on a bike! Would be a good challenge:)
Lear to backflip flat please đđđđ
Martin Arrua already did it
Dominik Papic He never finished it
I was so pumped when you finally got it!
Gotta love the *intense manualing* in the subtitles
Editing skills
When learning to not use the brake so much, an alternative way to progress would have been to deathgrip, basically turn the brake levers to a position where you can't reach them
After watching all the videos that make it look easy it's nice to see the real pain that goes into it. This is like a video of me trying to learn guitar.
Manuals and tree rides were my favorite bike tricks
