Dang, First-Person Mountain Biking Looks Scary

Dang, First-Person Mountain Biking Looks Scary


Ever wonder what it looks like to pull awesome stunts (like backflips!) on your bike while navigating treacherous terrain? If you were actually there, I mean — not if you were playing a game like Trials or something. Well, thanks to Kelly McGarry, you can see what it’s like.

Boy, does mountain biking like this seem like something I’d never want to do. I’ll stick to the footpath, thanks.

In case you’re curious: this is was performed at the Red Bull Rampage this year, a downhill mountain biking competition. McGarry came in second, which really just makes you wonder what came in first. Lord.

And… is it just me projecting, or does he sound a little scared at the start of this video, before he hits his groove? Not that I would blame him, of course! It IS terrifying.
