    I like the bit at the end when he sits down on the beach and thinks: "darn I wish I had thought to tie up the boat before I set off on the bike".
  • @BlueViking70
    I'm not a cyclist, nor mountain climber, but this is still one of my favourite videos on YouTube. I've never envied anyone with money, but the ability to focus your God given talent is a rare and special thing that should be prized. Thank you for this!
  • @Panchijorch
    No matter how many years go by, this video is still the best one. The rider, the music, the landscape, the vibes, everything ❤
  • @Tsmace33
    Shout out to the person behind the camera who never gets credit for the hard work!
  • I cannot even imagine the strength, endurance, and balance required for such feats. Truly amazing.
  • @UdayKiranIITB
    Blew my mind one time 8 years ago. Came to revisit expecting mediocre stunt biking video, but blew my mind again today. Definition of timeless epic.

    The last time I took my cycle out, my mom told me to drive only on sides of the road and to be back home before 6pm.

  • @sir.erik1
    After 8 years... Still my favorite Mtb video ever 🤘
  • @ShaunKjar
    One of the best videos I’ve ever seen. I love this style so much. The amount of effort required to make this so smooth and beautiful is a sight to behold. Awe inspiring!

    5:47-“there is a black bear, sits on your tree, some says it is blind and it cannot see, its soul is mine, all in me” that’s honestly what I heard 😂
  • @spositi6517
    You, my friend, have just taken the definition of “mountain biking” to a whole new level
  • @ashenning9002
    WOW! Danny's bike handling skill is beyond amazing, as is the entire video production. If I didn't see this, I never would have believed a guy on a bike could do what I just saw.
