    When you lost 4th place, (which you regained) to that fellow competitor, it gave a real perspective of the speed and corners. Absolutely amazing.

      @@lordlopikong6940 bruh based on the video perspective... the 1st 2nd and 3rd placer must be placed in the front row or mostly close to that... so obviously they will struggle less compared to the man in the video which is placed near the back row or middle row... His bike was top tier but he never saw the 1st, 2nd and 3rd which states that they probably were in the front row...

    Never cared for downhill biking, never watched a race, never known anyone who does it, never thought coming across a random youtube video of a stranger doing this sport would be so enthralling.

    Have loved cycling my whole life and a year back, got obsessed with long distance running but everytime I see mtb races, I'm always left wondering how insane it is to go that fast over a terrain like that. I get nervous just running over a small muddy section on paved roads lol.
    Can't imagine what it's like to cycle downhill a mountain. Nuts man, my utmost respect to you, and all the mtb riders and trail runners out there. Thank you for continuing to push the boudaries of what is possible everyday.
    Was feeling quite smug about my running streak count and weekly mileage lately, this humbled me real quick haha.

      ha yeah I forgot/didn't realise this was just the qualifier whilst he was pushing to make the podium & fighting to maintain/regain 4th - thought he'd just cut out huge chunks of course that I can remember from other Mega Valanche t-to-b race run footage from riders like Kilian Bron !

      The qualifier race is shorter, tougher and almost more intense than the main race. In the main race you have to manage your efforts to make it to the end, when in the qualifier you'll be at 100% for the whole race
