We've just activated the "Super thanks 🖤" button! You can now tip our videos when you had a good time watching them! 👊🏼
cool! :)
I really enjoy these
At least it became enjoyable to watch at 2x.
What place did you get?
L
This started out as a fun little "don’t slip on the ice or crash into anybody” and then it switched to a ”don’t hit a rock and die”
Lol I was scared he was gonna fall because of the way he was going fast😂
And dont fall off the cliff
vous connaisez VALD??
I did some research and I found out that a good chunk of riders just drop out after that first part with the downhill ice.
@@wyattl.4023 not epic
I would've started 1000th and finished in the grave
Same 😂
Same here😂😠😝😜
yeah.
Oh, hello there Beamng dude

This guy finished 72nd, while starting 1000th and doing a good third of the race flat tires. And he managed to clean the lens, give coupons and stopped several times to let others pass. Mad respect.
72nd
@@therealspilner6301 True.
man he really would’ve finished like top 20 maybe even higher if his tire didn’t pop, shit he would’ve still got that placing if his tube didn’t wrap around the back
He was in ~33rd place when it popped, and likely to climb higher. This is based on him finishing 72nd and being passed a net of ~39 times after the flat. I use approximate symbol (~) because i may have missed a passing or two while camera was down or if i got distracted for a sec. Just watching this made me tired and upset.
Yo mf why spoilers
At the 41:22 mark.... He states, "You don't know the INTERGALATIC DISGUST I have here,.... I wanna cry." Damn man I felt that!! Real Talk!! Great job for not quitting!!!!!
90% of the people there aren't racing. They're strategically placed obstacles.

Funniest comment ive seen
Underrated
That’s still 100 people racing then lol
Trust me, its not as easy as it looks.
And trust me again, we didnt search for this video but this video found us.
I pretty sure everyone can agree that this looks stressful as hell, I got sweaty palms just watching it.
I don't think anyone is questioning how much strength this takes. Its looks hard as hell
Agreee
I searched for this video after seeing a section on TikTok
it’s not called mountain of hell for nothing
14:55 Bro is in the middle of one of the hardest events in any sport and still finds the time to give out a coupon code. Legend!
EZBERGRODEO is freaking insane, lifting 200lbs bikes up muddy and slippery hills
And selling merch, while riding a loaner bike! Respect!
Even though this is an old video. Gotta love the terrain changes from the icy snow mountain tops to the downhill dirt rock gravel to steep inclines of other mountains and to the downhill grass bushes and trees before getting to the town.
Pretty scenic
My man switching biomes like he's in minecraft

I paused the video to let him rest a bit.
Lolololol
Very good point, haha
Good
Smart
Big brain time.
I'm not a biker, and I've never seen anything even remotely like this.. but I just watched that all the way through in complete awe. Wow. This is the single most impressive and insane thing I have ever seen on CZcams.
Yeah man! Me too 🎉
I can't imagine myself in his shoes!
Same. Awesome
I watched this video the day he posted. And I can't believe I am re-watching after 3 years. This man is legendary.
That is how my mom describes going to school when she was young
The only difference is that she had to go uphill.....

Imagine being in the bike race of your life and then getting passed by someone yelling out coupon codes

I never get tired of watching this video! Dude is passing people riding, walking, uphill, downhill, even when he falls, keeps pushing! Better than a video game ....amazing!
soo sorry about the flat tire! i was soo invested my heart broke!!! 😭 you were a legend all the way till then
The fact that this guy is cleaning The camera and apologizing for sniffing while going down a deadly rocky mountain is incredible
^
yes
Then also throwing in a random plug for webstore merch into his commentary too lol
We we
And with a flat tire
He cleans the camera for us, plugs his merch while he's racing and finishes a pretty large part of the race with a flat tire. BRO
He’s a goat
He has a true love for his passion
Plus he’s super wholesome the whole time
Totally not a Rick Roll: czcams.com/video/VOfWKkMQaD8/video.html
@Sky_Jal oh my bad
Wow this video is amazing. The scenery is gorgeous. You were killing it! I felt your devastation when your tire popped but you were a champ about it & kept going. Such determination. This was just a joy to watch honestly.
I'm amazed at just the sheer number of participants willing to do this!
These people be racing like they can respawn.
Indeed
True! =)
They just fall. How is it dangerous if you land on snow and slide?
Hahah
@@easternarc4301 My guess is its because they enjoy racing and enjoy the rush they get out of it prize or not
If I participate in this kind of events, I have two worries:
1. How to ride a bike without dying.
2. How to find the path.
He wasnt fisrt tho,was he?
The path. Like what if the first get lost? LOL
Dont forget how to find the path without dying
Me too
2 : "This is the way"
This was super impressive regardless of what happened. The scenery is beautiful too. Good job to all the participants!
That was one of the most impressive things ive ever seen not only the sheer length of the ride and the trail amd the difficulty just your endurance and skill blows my mind 🎉 that was insane and u rode it broken for 15 min or more bravo good show man
Nobody:
This dude mid race: "dont forget to check out our store for mud guards and t-shirts"
Dude even gave out promo code.
Thats called dedication
For real the man Is gasping for air and he uses it to plug merchandise. The madman
The fact that he plugged his merch while hurling down a mountain is gold
I was thinking the same!
Time stamp?
@@ehsam8202 10:53
It’s what he does
Dont forget the code lol 14:57
I love these back of pack videos, and then live hits like stepping on rakes the whole way. What a gentleman!
I can't pass this video without commenting this place is perfect for videogames. No tree, no tall grass, nothing, just some texturized rocks, sand and snow, and a background landscape. It's the image of perfection!

Beautiful scenery. It seemed like only you two were competing. Others were having fun and being careful with their lives
i LOVE how it started off as a cold, snowy mountain. descends into dusty, sparsely grassy hills, between trees into open fields and plains, through the town, and ending in some nice woods
shit is SCENIC
This was just a random CZcams recommendation and you watched this entire 40 min video.
And so did I.
God! I didn't even realize until I saw your comment lol
true
And then you also realize, WAIT.....
He's been riding like that for friggin 40 MINUTES
I CANT EVEN RIDE LIKE THAT FOR 5

👍 yup

Ah yeah
If this is “insane” then you should probably get out more

Don’t forget that we also listened to him talk French even though we don’t know French
Guys, welcome to youtube.
same xD
I just finished the video and didnt realised it till I read your comment. Im shocked-
Yessir
So hardwork you have done this 😮
I like the way you dont give up
You are a good champ💯
You can tell the fitness of a person by how quickly their breathing returns to normal...
Actually in the army they teach you to resist the urge to breathe fast, instead after a sprint or a run, breathe slowwly - you won't die, but your hearth rate slows down so you can shoot accurately without shaking, faster.
@Stefan, good job missing the point entirely
yes we know a slowed heart rate improves accuracy with a rifle, but is there anyone in this video shown to be engaged in an active theater of war? No, this video is purely for sport.
So lets go back to what Drawn said. If you deprive your body of oxygen from physical activity, your rate of breathing goes up to accommodate the bodies need for greater supply of oxygen which is why the heartrate increases in order to pump blood throughout your body faster so that the hemoglobin in the blood can carry that oxygen to replenish your body faster. People who are more fit are able to stabilize their breathing more rapidly than obese people who can't run around the block without passing out or collapsing due to exhaustion. The last thing you would want to do is artificially deprive your body of oxygen by slowing your breathing. Yes we know this slows the heart rate so you can have greater accuracy as a rifle marksman, but nobody in this video is trying to fire any guns. Dawn was just trying to say that how rapidly a person can stabilize their breathing is in fact a really good measure of how fit that person is. Video is about downhill offroad biking. That's all. None of this "Enemy at the Gates" type of rifle sniping is going here. Your "In The Army Now with Pauly Shore" type of comment doesn't belong on this video.
