Can't see this posted elsewhere. Sweaty palms stuff.

This’ll probably end up being locked then you’ll have to put it in the YouTube thread.

I do love Danny’s films though.

I do hope not. It's specifically about cycling.

Though I don't go there, I presume the Youtube thread is for Girls juggling with kittens and men setting light to farts.

I don't even bother linking youtube videos anymore they all end up in the youtube thread regardless.

Good find though, he's certainly still got it.

[Easternlight]

Speechless!

Danny McAskill is from another world.

[Bill]

Good effort!

First thought - fk that!
Second thought - fk that some more!
Third thought - you wouldn’t want a brake cable to snap halfway down.
Fourth thought - what utterly incredible dronework

[loskie]

He's just a right good bloke.

If you think that’s bad, watch The Ridge...

Watched all of his vids but holy cow

What a legend!

One word... STEEP.

[lauda]

As someone who may have dismounted their road bike on a particularly steep country lane descent, that video makes me feel distinctly uncomfortable.

I simply don’t understand how he maintains control and the consequences of losing it don’t bear thinking about. Still, incredible skill, great camerawork and a brilliant soundtrack.

As a climber turned mountain bike... Nope!

If Danny says that was scary then for normal folks it's the stuff of nightmares.

Jesus, the exposure on some of those lines is crazy! Couldn't help imagining a slip resulting in a ragdoll fall all the way down to the loch...

Amazing stuff as usual! Those Magura brakes must be made of strong stuff too!

[DaveyBoyWonder]

I started watching it thinking "I could do that" then it got steeper and steeper and steeper and exposed and steeper and steeper and exposed and nope, nope, nope, nope...

I did exactly the same!

[shouldbworking]

I get the feeling this is one of the occasions where it's no outtakes and no "can you do that bit again for us Danny?", just one balls out descent and maybe regroup on the rare flat bits.

[loskie]

best of all he seems like a decent bloke too

[marksx]

This is insane.

He has to be one of the most skilled and creative riders around.

Imaginate is still one of my favourite videos on the internet.
