OT : That mad Scottish kid and his pushbike again....

Yeah Yeah Yeah.... I could do that....

 

Two camera men. Some stunts looked like they were done several times
to get the different shots. Didn't see any bandages on elbows, etc.
Liked the pipe at 4:40.

 

Many of the stunts make me think Woaaaah. A 15 foot drop is 15 feet
whichever way you cut it. Nor am I quite sure how he gets so much lift.
*Respect*

Ta.
I love watching this shit.....

 

Wouldn't you just love to be able to bunny hop a gate? Save all that
opening and closing nonsense.

 

He is superb - you might expect him to have come from the equivalent
of a Lampkin family but he doesn't. Just a kid who was inspired and
used to play about with my pal's kids in a duff area of central
Edinburgh. They used to get chased by the police because they were
apparently anti-social in their activities. I hope he makes a few bob
out of it - I suspect a few is about it. He's a fearless little bugger
and I wish him well.

Rowdy

 

Nice cinematography too.

 

Great video.

The huge bunny hops are incredible and so are the long drops. And as
for the sheer control balanced on one wheel....

Looking at his landings from higher launch points, it looks as though
he hangs his backside way over the rear wheel, lands rear wheel first,
then uses the rotation of the bike as it drops onto its front wheel to
increase the vertical distance his legs have to absorb the impact.

Brilliant.
