This is the route my grandparents took to school...and back
Lmaooo
Walking
And without brakes, these boomers...
Your grandparents had it easy.
Owen Samuel ....
Formula 1 should install a horn on their cars that yelled: "excusez moi".
lmao đ
Isn't that what blue flag translates to in French? Xd
That's a red herring. Every time he said it he wasn't in the position to pass anyone he was behind.đ
Omg hahaaha

If you had told me before this that i'd sit down and watch 40 minutes of mountain biking, i'd have told you you were crazy. But this was absolutely spectacular. Not only is this amazingly impressive, but it's beautiful and exciting. This has legitimately sparked an interest in me.

You can even hear the brakes squeak against the tires trying to slow them..... but the brakes are dead

"Excusez-moi" is the most underrated overtaking maneuver, ever.
It's a dick move when you're 50 feet back and expect others to let you pass. If you can over take them, then just pass!
@@marcschoech1348 It's downhill singletrack dude, "just passing" is a sure recipe for disaster. It's better to give up the place to the guy behind you who claims to be faster than to risk a potentially deadly crash. If he is faster, he'll overtake you anyway eventually, and keeping yourself in his way is just a dick move and limits his potential. If he isn't faster, you'll retake your position from him a while later and everything becomes balanced again. You'll see that, later in the run when his brakes are overheating, he willingly gives up a lot of places to avoid being in anybody's way and causing an accident.
The same applies in motorsport, sometimes it's better to give up a place than to fiercely defend your position and risk a crash.
@@marcschoech1348 No, this way of thinking in social racing sports is wrong when it comes to events like these. It's generally common courtesy to let someone pass that's been on your tail, unless you want to risk an accident. If something bad happens, it's you who would be at fault for pulling the stubborn card and not letting someone pass that's repeatedly requested it and is consistently on your tail.
This idiot would be saying it in narrow tough terrains at fast speeds like wtf you want them to do pull off to the side? Stupid
@@NoName-tp6ib Exactly! And then when the trail would open up so passing was possible, he didn't/couldn't pass. "Excusez-moi" = I'm more important than you; let me by.

Lots of riders, but only one Raiden.
Here after 11 months
@@Sinsset I ride a bike and pedal even remotely hard for 2 minutes and it feels like my chest is going to explode.
I've never watched a race like this before, and that was just absolutely amazing. So many places on that course where you do not want to take a tumble. Also, I watched it at 2X speed, so....those guys were flying!!! It is hard to imagine the stamina required to go so hard with that level of intensity for so long. Truly a sport for youth....who don't mind the occasional compound fracture.
I normally watch everything in 2x speed. This video I watched in original speed, but it felt like 2x.
Imaging doing all this just to find out the camera isn't recording
Oh god I see the headlines now
*Man found dead after riding a bike of a cliff*
I would be pissed off probably never make a video again
WTF When i scroll down the comments while looking at your profile pic it fades slightely in the back *hits blunt*

You know some people care more about the actual thing they're doing in the moment, rather than showing a bunch of other people what they did. He's happy when he finishes the race, the GoPro is just a cool gimmick.
me, going downhill: Bikes are awesome!
me, going uphill: Leave me, I will die here.
relatable
The comment section on this video is the best
Iâd love to see heart rate monitor stats for this. Sounds brutal.
agreed. imagine also an overlay of positions to track a rider. that be cool.
It's maxed. Everyone has a different max HR. One person's 220BPM is another person's 180BPM. So just seeing a number is meaningless.
This is by far one of the most impressive things I've seen in a long time. Hope all the other riders were okay!
even with the red signs, i would've took the wrong way at one point lmao
They probably pre road the course at least once.
@Merketroid You got me freak. :-[
I would've gone straight off a cliff lol
That wouldn't be bad as u would hit a invisible wall
dany pepin yeah, too much speed
I paused the video so he could catch his breath

and then you realized he actually had to pause breathing and it didn't help at all

OMG. dying.

Respect for still doing the race without brakes and getting top 50
Unbelievable job, watched the whole video through out it. I loved it, thanks for sharing and thank you for creating such a positive race by being so polite and so understanding. Great job.
This manâs heavy breathes and insane skills makes me feel the exhaustion even im just lying on my couch.
I was watching this while drinking coffee and I was tired too
Literally had to turn it down
yeah i'm having a workout just by watching on my couch
What was with that damn ringing noise?
Hahaha ye
Just imagine how crazy the dude in 1st place must have driven.
A lot of this race is getting ahead earlier plus stamina and gear. This dude probably would've been top 10 if he had a better starting position
There was no one for the first guy to avoid. Plus the terrain wound be in better condition for the first guy.

Seriously, i was wondering that too. He on the glacier having what im guessing a slight bruise that he needed to walk off a bit. Then moments later he is on his ass even tho owlaps has been peddleing like a madman. Did Damien squirrel suit parachute with his bike to catch up?! If Damien really can teleport, it is a silly hobby to have.
Probably the most amazing thing Iâve seen - stunning stamina and courage and ability đ
Absolutely compelling! Incredible cardio. If not for the rear brake failure, I doubt he would have been passed. Amazing.

I would LOVE to ski this. Thanks for taking me along on the ride, Owlaps!
There were times when I feared for him going down some of those treacherous mountain passes. Narrow and steep with slick, craggy terrain, a wipeout could cost him his life! But he made some cool moves and jumps too and had some narrow passes. Very, very cool! I liked and subscribed because this was worth it! Great job guys! God bless you ALL! ( :E
Did I just spend 40 minutes of my life watching a random guy ride on his bike instead of doing my homework? Yes. Yes I did.
Did I regret it at all? No, No I didn't
Just read my mind
and you will spend so many 40 minutes more with things like this instead of doing your homework! Trust me...

Bernard Jordan When in reality, his brakes were out. He let other riders pass him, it was very clear. Itâs better to let other riders pass than to cause a crash. The dude did beautifully, and Iâd imagine better than you could do in a million years. No need to judge the guy when the majority of people wouldnât even be at this race, let alone overtaking almost everybody.

Just now seeing this and "highly impressed" is an understatement. What a harrowing and treacherous course. The bikes and riders are next level tough. I could feel my heartrate increase at several points along the way just watching the rider negotiate countless hairpin turns and obstacles. Better than watching a thriller movie!!!

Guy: i have no brakes
*continues going downhill fast af*
Hmm. Yea. The floor here is made out of floor
Well what else is he supposed to do đ he literally had no brakes so couldnât slow down!! Your message kind of contradicts itself đđ
He had no back brake but he had the front
no fucking shit is he supposed jump off the damn bike
He said "J'ai plus de frein arriere" it means roughly "I don't have any rear brake anymore". He still had his front brake, but he lost his rear brake.
He says it at 40:51, and at other places
'J'ai' means 'I have', 'plus' modifies I have to mean 'I don't have', 'frein' means brake and 'arriere' means 'rear' or 'back'. The 'arriere' is a little hard to hear if you're not a native French speaker because he says it quickly and is out of breath, but it's there. If he had no brake at all I sincerely doubt he would have been able to finish.
This looks like so much fun. I used to do a lot of mountain biking like 25 years ago. I'd love to take it up again but I live in Florida now.
Really, really brilliant run here. In all disciplines. Congratulations đ The only annoying thing is that you are announcing that you want to overtake in a single lane when you are actually not even close to be able to do it. You should simply wait in these moments and not expect others to slow down so that you could lead. But beside that you are âcrazy goodâ.
