These guys have some amazing bike handling skills. Check out the video of Danny MacAskill doing stuff on a bike that shouldn't be possible...

My favorite part of this video is after he takes a big drop, the crowd of people that come to look over the edge to see what happened. They all look puzzled to not find him dead.

i've watched several of his videos, but don't know much about him.... you can definitely tell that he has bmx roots converted to street/trials/urban whatever you want to call it. the flair off the tree is insane.

When I finally find a woman who will let me father a child with her I will insist that we project Danny's videos onto her belly while playing Jawbreaker on the stereo. His/Her crib will be made out of 853. He or she will receive a horizontal dropout tricycle made by Spooky. At age 12 he/she will go away to boarding school at Ti Design's shop.

I will live vicariously through him/her. I will be the approving dad that videos everything. I will attend every ER visit with pride. I will be on a first-name basis with the emergency team.

Wow, thanks for posting. That was insane. I will not show that to my 7 and 9 year olds.

There are so many incredible displays of balance and skill that there are too many to mention, but hopping onto the handrail into a wheelie at 3:42 and riding on the poll at 4:03 are a couple that stand out to me.

Worth watching some of Ryan Leech's videos, as well:

When we're all done watching these videos we should go kiss our loved ones and then go for a ride.

Contemplate politics, environmental disasters and how good we effin have it.

Come back. Kiss your loved one again and say "Thank You" to whomever or whatever you believe in.


It's Friday.
