- Hunter Howell moved from motorcycles to monowheels. Monowheeling is a type of action sport that requires the user to ride inside a motorized wheel, close to the ground. It's a hobby Howell shares with his father and brother.

Following is a transcript of the video:
This is a monowheel.
It's most similar to a unicycle but you sit INSIDE the wheel.
Hunter Howell: My name is Hunter Howell. I'm an action sports athlete and enthusiast and ride all types of crazy machines. The monowheel is one crazy machine. You have lots of stuff going on. You have a throttle, you also have a brake. That combination you really have to mess with. You give it too much gas, it's going to ride up on you. You give it too much brake, it's going to want to dive. You lock the brake up completely, and you'll start spinning inside of it. You'll go upside down.
Ah...General Kenobi.
hello there
I play star wars in roblox
Man, this legit cracked me up 😂.
Someone made a vehicle like this in the early 1900's. I always wanted one.
hahaha nice one
This reminds me of that South Park episode with the IT.
Ho i That's exactly what I thought when I clicked on this video!
Thank god this one doesn't have the same controls xD
@@elmotlk lol
@@elmotlk I'd be down for jt
Yeah
It's crazy to think that this machine has been around since a hundred years ago.
You mean the Dynasphere right
@@The_Wong no they mean monowheels that look just like the ones in this video but made in the 1920's
It's because they're not practical.
I want one so bad
@@deltafire5058is this the same as a tank with two turrets looking cool but not being practical ?
0:51 WHAT. This guy doesn’t look a day older than 18
Well he clearly have found the fountain of youth
He started when he was like 7 years old
He said unicycles u bum
What I found even more confusing is the fact that you can ride unicycles professionally.
Star Wars anyone?
Hello there!
General grievous: DEPLOY THE DESTROYER DROIDS!!!
Vdaddy no, South Park
Yeah didn't general grievous use that in one episode
Early Dragonball
"One broken leg please, and a shattered pelvis also...."
true...... but do you ride on one wheel? hella yee
You want that to go? Would you like fries and shake too?
@@Enonymouse_ Is that even a question? Hell yes fries and a shake
with fractured punctured skull..
Bruh that's general greivouses wheel thingy you can't lie to me
"Thingy"
They copied my one
Monowheel? Pff...
The future is *Zerowheel*
hovercar?
nowheel
That is called an exercycle...
*GENRAL KENOBI*
General*
Genral
Wolfenstein
You are a bold one
I love how right as I think my motorcycle experience will translate
"Any knowledge you have with motorcycles just throw it out the window"
Well made script.
That looks like that motorcycle that BJ Blaskowitz drives in Wolfenstein
JUWAUN theMAN Just thought of that
Yes :D
The nazis build this things for real so this dude isn't the first one riding these
Men In Black
This is why I came to the video after seeing it in wolfenstein
I guess you can see everything, except for what is straight ahead of you.
Needs to be two thin wheels next to eachother, so you have a little window in between
@@Neuroxix that's just a regular motorcycle!!
Kind of like formula one nowadays.
You could also use outer mirrors or cameras that project the picture in front of you on a special mirror or display in front of you in the middle.
@@namuh5799
Oh hell yeah futuristic monocycles with visual and sensor technology
Reminds me of Men In Black 3
Can’t wait for the CZcams monowheel fail comps😆
I can only imagine someone going down the street in this blasting the star wars pod race soundtrack
Suddenly, card games on motorcycles doesn’t seem so silly.
This will make a fine addition to my collection...
5 people inside the car only
Me: mom ill get in the wheel
South Park anyone?
General Grievous: *WRITE THAT DOWN, WRITE THAT DOWN*
Blazkowicz too
*general kenobi... You ARE a bold one!*
For some reason this reminds of that alien wheel shredder from battleship the wheel that destroys like everything
Yah
Sure yeah
Hell yeah, the shredder on that movie was amazing. Nice username by the way!
That looks hella fun
They had these designed in the 30s or 40s, but im glad they are getting publicity. So much potential!
No Potential
@@possiblyadickhead6653 might work in a snowy or icey area where all you have access is bio diesel too
@@brym4467 no this sucks why would you want this
because it rules@@possiblyadickhead6653
These remind me of yu gi oh.
Happy to see that someone reinvented this as the original ones have all but disappeared.
It's not his idea these have been around since the 1860s you can even find a bunch of old pictures from 1930s and drawings from 1869
This reminds me of Yu-Gi-Oh and Star Wars
While it reminds Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus for me
This reminds me of the Wolfenstein game and old episode of South Park calling out the airlines ripping people off
Yea
Reminds me of the Maliwan cyclone from Borderlands 3
Jack Altas's D-Wheels in real life
The Übermensch (Über Jason) pilots a monocyclo monster (claytronic ferris wheel) that crushes truckers and drivers driving along the coastal route, US Route 90, which connects Pascagoula with the Ocean Springs; Highway 1 from Australia and Route 66 from USA.
Schematics please!?! By the way you rock! You are a pioneer of awesomeness! Still wanting one
Ah I see he got that Wide Wheel from the cyclone on Eden-6. nice
Could you make it electric and add a gyroscope stabilizer?
*Just rolling around*
General Grievous!
Uh hu
I see two problems with this device
1 theres a wheel infront of you obscuring vision
2 hitting your head on the frame when coming out of a turn
Ah General Kenobi
I wonder if this would become an effective form of vehicle, because you're inside the wheel, so you have limited sight unless the wheel is thin enough to not bother your vision. Also, can it do downhill/uphill? sounds kind of dangerous. sjsjsk
I gotta get one! That's frickin awesome 🔥
I'd look for one of these too, or the parts to build one, if I wasn't trying to find parts to build a hubless wheel, electric unicycle
We are one step closer to the star wars universe
Yeah, the hacksmith made a close lightsaber, give them like 4 years or 5 and he finishes the lightsaber to be a real one, now this guy invents a monowheel, it's not surprising to me if someone invents a real tiefighter it will be not surprising to me 😁, Our future like in the year 2200 or 2100, it will be a replica of Starwars 😂🙆♂️, but I just hope we have big extraterrestrial friendships outside of our planet, I'm hoping peace and harmoniac moments, I just wuant this, not wars or they kill our specie. Let's see maybe the future could be something incredible 😇❤️
kid looks like he's 16 and has been riding unicycles for 15 years lol
That thing is like a smaller prototype of GANTZ motorcycle
General Kenobi
Can't wait to see someone jump ramps or re-invent Evel Knievel's infamous in one 😂
This makes me think of that thing he rode in Wolfenstein the new colossus but mainly star wars
Some straight Wolfenstein shit man, I want one so bad.
i've been trained in your driving arts by Business Insider
That is..... the coolest Thing I've ever seen.
That one scene from Steamboy.
It’s about damn time
it's been around since the 1920's
*Oh my god they killed Kenny* in Cartmans voice
wtf?! what happens if you go down a steeper hill? do you just start rolling uncontrollably or except the speed?
No, ud be fine, called brakes and a transmission or a manual transmission and u don't even need brakes
@@richterman3962 nono you don't get it. It cant have brakes because it only touches the ground with the wheel. If you started braking down a hill and for eg fully locked the brakes then the whole thing (including you and the cockpit) would start rolling. you know what i mean? Theres no way to have brakes except if you have more parts touching the ground like putting your foot out or something.
Use your feet or avoid hills , good question tho
there are wheel calibration systems in cars.. why not use one of these on a monowheel to help the driver with braking and speeding without spinning over? Like aren't sagways using this tech already? I'm thinking of a version for broader use, not a stunt vehicle, maybe with a bigger wheel so one can sit comfortably without having to duck the head.
He taught general grievous how to ride these
I think these things would be cool if u added a gyroscope in em to balance em so you don’t slide inside as much
It's the IT machine that Mr Garrison built. Minus the controls.
I mean this is many things the one wheelers from MIB 3, Sheen’s ultra orb from Jimmy Neutron with one wheel, etc and I love it
Star wars nostalgia?
0:04 when the mama sang us to sleep but now we're stressed out
Tye first one is totally from wolfenstein
It's the cyclone from borderlands!
Looks like the mono wheel in borderlands
This looks like that one wheel from the 1930s
0:00 that's the smallest mono wheel I've ever seen!
This is not just a "monowheel". This is a "monowheel and a pair of legs".
So crazy monowheels they can roll at the wheel
awesome, can you attach half plexi glass bubbles on each side for effects?
"I had this idea..." No no no. General Grievous had an idea. LOL. It's great work though. It looks cool and even cooler to ride in. The learning curve and safety issues are a problem though.
0:05 State Street in Madison, Wisconsin. Weird to see that here
Jack Atlas wants his bike back.
General Grievous has entered chat!
Tron?
How do you do a weelie on this???
The better question is how do you stop.
Probably still beats traveling by airplane - mr garison from south park
Oh, it lets you ride “inside” I thought you had to ride outside
Pretty cool.
It looks like the bike from 'men in black 3'
Cool borderlands 3 gameplay
Best Vehicle in Borderlands 3
Let’s rev it up!
Why is it not comercialized yet?
It's all about going Flinstone on the steering. Turning is not 'that' easy.
Now this...this is the future!
Watch out San Francisco
It’s that thing from Star Wars
I want that first one in the video
Ah! Wolfenstein - New Colossus
General Kenobi... Card Games on motorcycles.
So... how does this thing brake? At least you can jump out of it and roll a few times on the ground, in order to stop.
*9 Damage*
What do you do when you get a flat or tread runs low?
I would assume a replacement... and like all vechiles, it would get an annual M.O.T. 😄🫡
This looks like an awesome idea! Being able to see where you are going is way overrated anyway.
My first thought:
BUUUM! bububuhm! babubaba bah bahba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba...
BUHM BUH BABABAH BUAHM BUM BABUBA BUH BUM DADADAH DAAAH!
(star wars)
i need this so i can dress up in robes and go off to fight palpatine XD
i just want to let u guys know, these things were around like 20 years ago and are still street legal

Imagine those in the future being sold like manufactured bikes, or if they have a 2-seater like small car.
1800s-1945 were popular back then, and died off, now they're coming back.
