I don't think I like it as much as a previous one here, but as before, good job and do this in high definition sometime in the future...

absolutely men-tal!

Fantastic! a little arrogant in that they didn't really care about shoving in front of slower riders...whats wrong with waiting at the top for like 2 more minutes and getting a clear run?... and the bit at the end when he cut in front of the guy going through the narrow fence was just plain rude....... but at the same time I have to admire that nutters skill on a bike.

Extreme? If by extreme they mean irresponsible then yeah. Idiots like this have no business being on a hill with other riders. The way they were riding was an accident just waiting to happen. And for what? So they can show off on the net with a stupid video clip of their ride.
Doesn't matter if it's skiing, boarding, biking -- people like this give their sport a bad name and hotshots that think they can "handle it" are still human. they can make a mistake. One slipup and they can f### themselves or someone else up for life.
If I was one of the guys that got cut off by these douchebags and I met up with them at the bottom of the hill, one of 'em would be eating that f---n' camera.

I thought that the camera was going to get whacked by a tree several times.

Thankfully I live in Australia, and can go down a hundred hills like this on my bike and never see another rider.

This video must have been taken in Hungary because of the language. I wish I knew where, my girlfriend lives in Kecskemet. I would like to talk to whoever posted this video.


15. drwhitelight commented 15 years ago
They are saying koszi to those they pass, which is Hungarian for thanks.


16. Lazra commented 15 years ago
Actually, it's in France. They are not saying "Koszi", but "Merci", which is French for thanks. They also speak French at the begining and at the end of the video.
The name of the place is given at the begining of the video: "Descente de Venosc", which is in France, in the Alps, here: http://maps.google.com/maps?source=ig&hl=fr&rlz=&=&q=descente%20de%20venosc&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wl .

Ohh anf for those that wonder what a raliegh Grifter is imagine you had some spare steel scafold poles lieing around and you decided to make a bike from them.

#16 it's not "merci"; it's "passez" from the french verb "to pass". The cameraman is warning the rider in front he's coming though. Pity his mate didn't extend the same courtesy to the unsuspecting bikers he nearly forced off the track on numerous occasions (he seemed quite intent on passing everyone in front of him, regardless of the threat to the other bikers).


22. SuperDave commented 15 years ago
#21 I'm French Canadian and he's saying "Merci" as in thanks for letting me pass. There's no doubt there.
"Passez" actualy means "You may pass". If he wanted to warn them that he was going to pass, he would say "Laissez moi passer" as in "Let me pass" or "Je passe" as in "I'm going to pass you" or "Tassez-vous" as in "Get out of the way". He didn't do any of this. He was just saying thanks as he was passing them to be polite.
It was still rude since most of them didn't really let him pass. He just cut in front of em'.

I want to do this so bad. Amazing how the cliffs and trails are so steep with so many wicked turns; incredible how they don't fuck up going that fast! Looks dangerous but really fun.
Are they really in France? Those mountains look incredibly high!

#22 I've watched this again several times and I am willing to admit that, on the first occasion, the cameraman says "Merci". However, the next two times, he says something that sounds very diferent.
While I am not French or French-Canadian, I do have reasonably good hearing. However, I will respectively bow to your natively superior knowledge of the French language. May I ask you the following questions? I have some doubt that the cameraman was as polite (by saying "thank you"
as you have indicated.
How do you say in French:
1. "Excuse me, I'd like to pass."
2. "I'm passing!"
3. "PASSING!!!"
My questions are derived from the apparent activities of the two cyclists. They seem intent on passing all other cyclists in front of them. Almost at any cost. I don't think the "Merci" response fits everything the cameraman says on the downhill section of the videoclip.

Did anyone else who ever had a bike in there life See every Acident they ever had flash b4 there eyes ..... i did lolol Still a Wikid Video tho .....Bloody Nutters 



29. kokodrilito commented 15 years ago
why you people bother to talk about the harm if they fall down??? just enjoy the extreme ride and save time writing bulls.
What if they pass by other people? if other are slowest than you just, pass it...
Let this two extreme guys show off whatever the way they want... or is it jealousy?

He's saying "pardon" the first time (same word) and then "merci" each time he's passing a rider, to apologize.
They're also sometime speaking in english maybe because of the movie. And I'm not sure the first guy is french.

#34 here is your translation :
"Espece de trou du cul arrogant, tu penses vraiment être propriétaire de la montagne ? Ou est ce que c'est parce que tu es américain que tu te donne le droit d'attaquer les gens dans le monde à haute vitesse sans penser à la sécurité des autres ? Extrême en effet est ta stupidité toi aigris, seul et égoïst petit homme."
French speaking people will get it XD

35, as a French Canadian, from the little we hear spoken, with the exception of "merci" (as in, thank you for letting me pass), I think the cameraman is from Quebec as opposed to being an American. It is sad to say but we sometimes make poor tourists...


39. crashtest450 commented 15 years ago
I meant to say 36...

Before we blame:
Who's really rude here?
Our riders, or the one's they passed?
Many of the riders that were passed did not belong there.
The video shows what amounts to a black double diamond ski run...
It isn't made to go slow on!
It's for experts.
It's straight down!
Did you notice?
Not everyone belongs on a run like this...
and not everyone should be there.
It's a high level double black diamond run, not a sightseeing tour...

#17 needs to get a life. People here are just as rude, just they do it behind your back. #34 for instance is an example of rudeness. I love the translation by #36.
He said "merci" when passing.
The scenery is breathtaking! Beautiful.
