When Travis says he did something stupid, you better believe him.
No shit.. he legit jumped out of a plane without a parachute so when he says it’s stupid, that’s like saying I’m gonna test this Foot Locker jacket for body armor!
Nah Greg Gasson did
Amazing how he normalizes insane situations. If you want to live just hit the jump in 5th gear pinned....ya makes sense....lol.
So true lol
Aye hes some boy 😂
I've had my knee drained several times from having a broken leg and the way he describes draining it every day and RIDING this guy is not only next level pain tolerance but a fucking legend.
not to mention the risk of infection every time you get to drain the knee, doesn't matter how sterile the equipment is there is always a risk.
Yeah I had a buddy blow his knee out and he was tired of going to the doctor every day to get it drained and he took some safety wire. Sharpened and "sterilized it" to do it himself.... next day went back to the doctor lol
@@TheShift1313 I silent-screamed while reading about your friend...
@@jasonfalcon4052 [insert yeah okay gif]
@@jasonfalcon4052 stop it, get some help.
“All those old school guys”. The guys you were riding with when you were 13 😂. Travis old school too 😂 but he’s also new school, he’s been relevant his entire career. What a guy.
This man is an icon Absolute legend and the most humble nicest dude ever.
Absolutely. I met him at Unadilla before the MxDesNations , I talked to him for like 15 min . It was like we knew each other.
How are these guys not the biggest role model types instead of a LeBron or the kneelers?
@@kevinmelanson3282 exactly
Agreed. Met him at a rally event. Will never forget it
Met him once and talked to him for a quite a few minutes. The guy gives you his individual attention and genuinely is interested in a conversation with anyone he is talking to. One of the nicest people i've ever met.
Travis is one of those really rare racing legends that you'd like to hang out with for a day. Guaranteed laughter and amazing stories. Keep it pinned, my man.
met the guy at LAX a few years ago.. was blown away by how real he is as a human.. he spoke to me.. a complete stranger, like he knew me for years. absolute genuine human
Travis thank you for your invaluable contribution to this world and Motorsports
Travis sir thank you for everything and all the sacrifices you gave to the sport.
Man so glad you brought this up.
Travis is truly a beast. Destroyed body and tries to hop on to race. Legend.
I could listen to Travis all day! What a cool down to earth person. Dude is a Legend!
Pretty sure his old man called it the million-dollar jump in 199 Lives because thats how much he lost on it.
Yeah but he's made tons more doing fmx and rally.
@@nigeldean1813 In addition, if it wasn't that jump it could have been something worse. He could have broke his neck the next day racing around a track or trying something else. You just don't know with these dangerous (but very fun) sports (bmx, motocross, skateboarding, rally car racing - which is insane, or doing moto-cross stunts/jumps, etc). My rear skateboard trucks snagged on the coping of a 10 ft. high half pipe doing a roll in off the platform (which I had the trick wired) and flew to the bottom of the ramp landing on my right shoulder. I broke my shoulder, destroyed the cartridge, tore tendons and ligaments, bone came out of the socket, etc...) My shoulder has never been the same. I'll have to live with this shoulder pain the rest of my life. I've also had 4 ankle surgeries, and 3 back surgeries. I loved riding motocross, skateboarding, surfing, drag racings cars and motorcycles, and doing crazy stunts. My body is an orthopedic surgeon's gold mine. But that's just how I lived (but not a famous person like Travis - ground breaking motocross rider). I loved Travis' "go for it" attitude towards everything. But you're bound to get hurt living that life style. There's just no way to avoid it if you're trying to push the limits and develop new tricks. Travis is like a Cat with 9 lives if people are familiar with all his crashes (cars, motorcycles, etc) going back to a long time ago.
@@BLACK05GO1 199 lives*
@@nigeldean1813 yeah I know
Theres a reason they're called extreme sports.
So sad, we could have seen the greatest races ever from this guy.
Instead we got the best freestyle and extreme sports pioneer
Travis pastrana was a hell of a racer. Won the 125 Mx championship which is a pretty big deal. And a 125 sx championship. Who knows what he could have done on a big bike.
It sure would have been interesting racing with RC, Reed and Stewart
Nah, there’s great racers every year and we had no shortage of rivalries and racing stars during that era. Travis did something much, much bigger than that.
His freestyle career is ten times better than his racing career ever would have been imo
Travis failed the jump because he didn’t drink enough pbr’s to get him all loose like Mac.
Fenders got all hung up
Probably on a four stroke
@@tedium37 didn’t have 69 hp
There's a 69% chance that's true
It was a two stroke, but wasn't a screaming eagle. Hit that on a screaming eagle at 69 hundred rpm will get you there.
I was just admiring my Travis Pastrana Sobe bottle collection. The 90s and early '00s were so awesome for dirt bikers! Brrrrrrrrrrrrap! Hell Yeah!
Sobe!!!!
I've had some bad crashes and I feel it every day waking up at 40, I can't imagine how he feels.
Same. I have roughly 14 broken bones (some ribs and toes) and man I couldn’t imagine how this dude feels. I’m almost 50. Feel as best as we can and keep moving lol.
I'm 43 and had one snowmobiling accident when I was about 20 and now my lower back reminds me of it everyday. And I count myself as lucky... Some of you guys have it way worse than me!
Excellent interview
Travis living life to the fullest and we get to live vicariously thru him
I remember watching him when he first started doing flips. He was not scared of anything! I knew he was going to be a game changer, and he was.
so many stories we're never told....incredible
I remember seeing this crash on a video. His had told him to not do the jump several times. When he crashed his dad was seriously pissed.
Breaks every bone, “I tried to race the next weekend” 😂 what an animal!
Only by being a living legend can Travis be old school and new school at the same time!
Travis is the greatest ever in history.
Hey Trav. If Mac says something with a thick accent he's actually lying. Pro tip of the day.
ACL, PCL, MCL, Meniscus, dislocated kneecap, tibial plat fracture - good god that is a crash.
Other than that 199 was ok 👌
"I tried racing next weekend" LOL WHAT
@@DannyMac714 that just doesn’t process in my brain how that’s even possible
I SUSPECT HE WAS NURSING SOME OF THOSE INJURIES ALREADY ....THE CRASH JUST FINISHED IT ALL OFF AND OR BROUGHT THEM TO LIGHT .....IF HE WAS DEBATING GOING RACING WITH ALL THOSE INJURIES WHAT WAS HE DOING BEFORE ...ACL MCL MENISCUS ALL COULD HAVE BEEN DAMAGED HE JUST SHOOK IT OFF TILL IT ALL CAME DOWN AT ONCE IN THE CRASH. MY OPINION SORRY TRAV IF YOU WERE 100 UP TO THAT POINT IDK WE FIGURE IT OUT WHEN WERE DEAD.....LOL
And he still made A1
Hey, sorry to hear about that accident... Lisa
The absolute GOAT of freestyle motorcross. Everyone else was competing for second place
Would love to meet him, was 1 of my idols when racing long time ago. My cousin use to race, then got into rally, and hung with him. Said most down to earth, genuine, and amazing guy.
How old was jimmy albertson in 2003? Like 15?
yup travis wouldve been 20, kinda crazy
Dude is an absolute legend...
I walked into my local MX dealer here in the UK and theyd started stocking VHS videos of American dirt bike action.
Picked up the Blackwater100 and Crusty Demons of Dirt, first time Id seen Travis and Ive never looked back.
Both are badass films. 🤙🏼 glad to see new people getting sucked in!
Loved going to the Blackwater 100!!!!
The mud fleas!
What a legend
No one has balls on them like this guy. Legend.
Wow, that was crazy and cool.
Pastrana is a legend
Travis is a beast! We both started racing together in 1990 at Aquasco In Maryland. He was a beast then too! I was 5 he was 7.
Pastrama is a legend.
massive travis fan,he is the forerunner to freestyle moto cross really,along with the metal mulisha,who were awesome too
Man I've had 10 right shoulder dislocations now. Currently out on one, took me out of my last race the 7th lol.
Finally located a trainer to help me rebuild muscle around it to keep it in place once i am done recovering
Proper legend
Mentioned my old buddy Pingree again ! 🙌🙌😂He was a badass dude, Travis knows 😁
Global Addiction was the greatest DVD back in the day. Can’t find it anywhere now.
It's on youtube
I got it on vhs!
I still have my vhs
n the sound track is on spotify

Hey I’ve got a request for future videos...could you play a clip of whatever you are talking about (assuming a video exists). I feel like it would help your viewers understand what you are talking about a little better. Thank you. Keep up the good work 👍
Would love to mate, but the copyright on youtube automatically pulls the videos down if we show footage...
@@GYPSYTALES oh that’s so lame!!!!! Okay, thank you. Keep up the great content! Have a good day
@@GYPSYTALES or maybe a link in the comments to the actual UA-cam video could work?
You can just look it up. It's one of his more gnarly crashes, i could tell which one it was just from the thumbnail and him describing the jump
Assume out of the 10’s of thousand watching that not everyone knows... link would be nice.
He could have said the name jimmy Albertson and not mention Ronnie Mac and 9 out of 10 people would not have a clue and never link Ronnie into this story, but now people are questioning and figuring it out
Travis Pastrana is a cool dude. I met him around a decade or more ago in the Seattle area for an event he did out at the Pacific Raceways Karting track, and then a few days later went to see him run a Rally Race for the Rally America circuit out near Shelton, WA.
I live in Spanaway and I go to Pacific raceways all the time
More like the start, the things he's done sense that day with motor sports are incredible.
Goated.
Travis,you're the EVIL KNIEVEL of our time,you're the best
Landed a higher percentage of his demonstration jumps than Evel
Evil couldn't do basic math... I'm sure if pastrana was born back then he would have tried to do more.
Damn, that crash was brutal 😭😭😭😢
Crazy Slap'm on the Wall Life Travis
Amazing Life Dude
I heard you say years ago.
One of the greatest on point statements I ever heard
With Age Get A Cage
If ya gonna stay on that throttle
Cage It🏁
what video and jump are they talking about does anyone know?
legend
So funny when you list a couple guys and say old school guys. You know the old school guys in our age is Damon Bradshaw, Rick Johnson, Johnny O'mara, Kyle Lewis. All way before FMX days.
When you ask someone a question, Please interject and interrupt as many times as you like. Great job mate.
When he jumped out of the airplane with no parachute he became a legend at that moment
David Pingree was my homie back in the day ! We were on 80’s ,he was the best rider in Arizona!! Total badass on that 80!!!
Travis is a Superhero.
I was training with Ronnie Mac at the time, but wasn't there when Travis Crashed. Ronnie always said that if Travis would have just listened to him, and not backed off like he did, he would have made it. One thing that I don't think everyone knows, and this would probably include Travis, is that after Travis Crashed and was laying on the ground with a broken leg and dislocated knee, Ronnie was in the garage making out with Michelle "Mrs. Arenacross" Stephenson. So, they didn't call the Paramedics for at least an hour. It's funny now, but I think that Travis understood and never really got mad about it or anything.
What year was it?
@@sparky-281 Hey. It's really hard to remember. I'm thinking about 2002. Travis was injured so often in those days. He would be soaking his legs in ice water. To me, that's really painful too. I really don't know how he did it and kept it up too. Amazing times
@@superfly3990 I managed to find the footage thanks anyway 👍 seen it before but didn't know what year to type in just wrote Travis pastrana jumping barbed wire fence.
@@superfly3990 he doesn't come across as a hardcore dude like the mullisha guys but he sure is, the amount of injuries he's had it shows how mentally strong he is to not get addicted to the opiate meds. Like you said even the ice baths are sore, when I was a teenager I got into a fight this dude smashed my leg with an aluminium baseball bat fractured my knee cap and tore ligaments. When I was in hospital the leg was so swollen couldn't tell where my knee cap was, they used a massive needle which went right in under the knee cap and drew out heaps of liquid before I could get x rayed.
Getting my knee drained was sorer than actually getting smashed up with the bat.
I've broke other bones but when I heard Travis say he got his knee drained daily it brought back memories he's a gnarly dude.
I totally forgot about that jump
I met a gypsy and she hit me with some mind game- to stimulate and activate the left, and right brain.
The moral of the story?
Ronnie Mac is a legend.
I want the Travis Pastrana knee rehab advice video series...
I literally had the exact same injury, just not from riding a motorcycle. I fell off a roof and landed all my weight on my left knee. That was hell. Acl,mcl,pcl all torn, fractured tibia, cracked and dislocated knee cap. I've walked with a limp since.
Holy shit brother it's good to hear you're walking
And imagine after that he tried racing the next week
Same. Trials bike!
Ha ha I too fell off a 2 story roof but landed in a dive position, arms stretched out over my head
Broke both arms , hands, wrists, thumbs, and shattered left elbow
Both arms in casts up to my armpit’s
Try wiping your arse like that 🤣 or reaching your mouth with a fork, won’t reach. Damn brick gave out I was holding onto & gravity can be a real
B!tch
One of his gnarliest crashes
WHERE is this video I've been looking for it forever
I saw it on Travis pastranas biggest crashes, hope that helps.
nitro circus: castillo ranch
It was on a gravity games vhs tape
The 199 lives of travis pastrana
Drain the knee, then ride.
Insanity.
All time best rider Travis , hand down .
Cap
My favorite rider 👍🔥💪🏼
I grew up in SoCal and the Castillo's I knew couldn't afford a bottle of Ranch dressing little alone a ranch with land and animals.
Only Travis would be like “yea if I could go back I would just go with it and it would’ve been the best front flip of all time” instead of “yea probably wouldn’t have done it” lol.. Travis is the gnarliest dude of all time in actions sports.
I also tore my acl, mcl and meniscus on 1 wreck. Dang foot came off the peg and my friends honda 700xx back tire ran up my leg and yanked me off the thing. My leg was a spaghetti noodle for a year
Where is the crash vid
I'm sitting here with ronnie having beers for breakfast and he says you didn't even try and send it
The fact that travis Pastrana is even alive is ridiculous..
The end of his career was not listening to Roger.
Rabbit?
The feeling you get when you hit a jump that launches you in this manner. Scary as phuck
15 year old Ronnie mac ruined travis racing career lol
Was that crash on video anywhere?? I loved seeing Travis race Supercross, I wanted to see him get a title. But, he went on to many bigger and better things anyway...
I’ve always liked this dude! (Almost said kid. Anyone not getting annual colonoscopies is a kid to me.)
He digs life.
…so it’s a wash huh Travis? Amazing..
Is there a video of this crash
Cant imagine biggest race of your life and you fuck up days before it damn he must of thought his life was over for a short time but damn did he make a big comeback
I wonder how good he could have been if he was not self destructive
Would have been in the GOAT convo for sure.
🐐
“Fifth gear pinned” aka go really fast
Laid up with a knee injury watching this… fn guy gets his knee drained every day so he can ride, and I’m just hoping I’m good enough to ride in two weeks. What an animal.
If you just watch 199 life's Travis Pastranas movie years ago you actually see it it's pretty crazy
I'm assuming theres a video of it if they had cameras everywhere?!
Met him once and got his autograph st a super moto meet. Nicest dude ever.
Travis just confirmed Gregg Albertson is Ronnie Mac..
Top Jimmy doing travis dirty
how in the fucks this guy can endure so much pain!!!
The true example of the penalties of leadership.
When you prove the impossible is possible there is always those people that will see it and say;
"Do it again!"🙄
If Travis said it was gonna buck they should of moved more dirt to make it safe it sounds like the jump off terrafirma 2 when McGrath is on that ranch and does that massive jump up hill
I wonder if trav is on good terms with uncle Ron
They do videos every once in a while
The
story ant real
“Soor, alort of people doornt noor…”
Ronnie doesn't lie,he even uses his real name.
Hey guy, why not let your guest say what he's trying to say? Isn't THAT the point of bringing them on your show? First and last time I'll watch this channel.
It's not a straight up interview, it's a podcast. They're having a conversation. Idk how your convos normally go, but they must be rigid as hell if you talk interview-style constantly...
@@dparson7 W
Oh shit , I been here 2 years ago 😂😂😂
I bet that jump was gnarly af
