CHAPTER XVI - Ft. Travis Pastrana
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 кві 2018
- Travis is a guy who really needs no introduction. We were lucky to be able to sit Travis down in studio for a couple hours to try get inside the mind of one of action sports most loved and accomplished characters.
From motocross titles, more X-Games medals than any other athlete, National Rally Titles, a host of world records and now a traveling circus that visits stadiums all over the world; this podcast could have gone for 48 hours.
Enjoy a couple hours with the man himself, Travis Pastrana!
Thank me now.

@@GYPSYTALES you’re*
@@onlinename7548 thank goodness you came along when you did. 🤓🤥
Ty bud. Great work
I could listen to Travis stories for hours.... wait I just did
@Kyle Sky huh?
I want him to make love with my wife 😂😂😂😂
I could use a few more hours of them though haha
Travis is such a special dude, everything this guys does he looks at the positive in it. I think everyone could learn from that.
Amen
This video is a hidden UA-cam gem!
I just stumbled onto your channel and I thank you so much for truly being so real with everyone you interview
Thanks very much, means a lot.
He is truly the best without a doubt
So rad hearing him talk of such humble origins, completely debunking the talk about how the kids back then were spoiled, rich, etc. where in reality their parents were sacrificing everything. My dad and I will be watching the races together and one of us will tell the other, "I'm glad we quit racing after 1 year of 125s because we would have put everything into it, would've been injured a lot more, and not have had nearly the well rounded amazing experiences we did growing up." Nothing but love and respect to all the racers, families out there making sure this sport is still the best sport in the world.
Trav is so insanely humble, “I made a living from failing and crashing” like he didn’t push the limits to the moon like no one else ever will be able to.
100%
I met travis twice , he is the most normal person i have ever met. We need more like him.Great kid.
Nitro Circus Show is the most amazing show i have ever seen and I have been to 4 nitro shows. It is a must see in lifetime
I love these conversations. And that’s what this is, a conversation, not an interview. That’s why it feels like two dude hanging out, because it is.
Some people believe in God. I believe in Travis Pastrana!!!
Get him on Joe Rogan's podcast
That would be so badass! Joe is from a totally different world which I think would give a new perspective! Good idea bro I never even thought of Travis on there!
Jacob Grant fuck off lahey
I have wanted him on Joe Rogan for years! We should start a petition to get Travis on Rogans podcast! I think Joe would really enjoy it too.
I don't think Joe knows or cares enough about action sports to have Travis on. He would just keep asking "are you crazy" and "do you have CTE" otherwise he has no idea what it takes to achieve what travis did. He did have Tony Hawk I guess but he is even more famous than TP
That would be really cool
Bro you made Travis feel so good about himself with in the first 3 min and you’re a damn good entertainer, you come up with good questions and tell him why he’s different definitely subbing
Travis is such a class act, todays kids will never grow up to be like him.
They get stuffed with meds early becouse they got too much energy.... Love travis and his persona
He's the biggest legend ever
My 19 yr old son is the 2nd owner of his 03 rm250,17 yrs old can do 1 handed wheelies up the street..he loves travis..awesome bike too..
This guy gets a lot of grief for talking lots in his interviews. But, notice how long they are. Host is documenting many greats on this channel. They would not feel comfortable just rambling for 2 hours plus. It's a conversation. Not the typical 2 minute interview.
Thanks for the comment and good insight. People really don't want to talk about themselves for hours on end, you constantly have to probe and interject to keep them engaged. Not as easy as people think!
@@GYPSYTALES You've gotten much better at keeping them rolling without seeming like you are trying to be the show. Well done.
Talk about more human than human! And Travis and people like him truly are the ones who have a little bit of extra, I mean a whole shit load of extra!
Travis is one of the only top level athletes I've met in person that will talk to you like you've been his friend forever. So much respect for the guy in every aspect. We need more people like him
What other top level athletes have you met?
@@californiapoontappa I have met almost all of the top mx/sx/ freestyle riders over the last 20 years. Races against a lot of them when I was younger.
@@brettcrawford4215 damn that's sick
@@californiapoontappa thanks. But yeah, try to meet pastrana if you get a chance. He's such a down to earth guy and doesn't act like he's any better than you, even though we all know he's a robot haha
@@brettcrawford4215 I get that from this. It's crazy cuz as a kid I didn't like him cuz of deegan lol but that's cuz I was like 12 during those days
I know this was two years ago, but I have always admired Travis Pastrana, his work ethic and mentality are amazing! I am from the rodeo world, and it was so cool to hear about the hard work, dedication, and community the motocross world has, for it perfectly mirrors rodeo! If you don't have the work ethic to practice, put your body through immense trials, and make sacrifices, you won't survive to be good. Thank you for this!
Travis has such cool uncle energy it’s insane. Legend.
There will never be another Travis Pastrana. 15 year old winning the XGames freestyle, 16 winning the 125 outdoor nationals.
The greatest podcast ever! I could listen to this all day long!
Dope Podcast .....Love Pastrana childhood idol.
You have some great podcasts! i love how you let Travis talk and tell his stories without talking over him like alot of the other hosts on UA-cam.keep em coming dude there awsome🤘
Unreal Podcast.! Thanks
Thanks for listening
Best podcast I’ve ever listened to I’ve been riding since I was 3 years old just like Travis I work construction 😂
Thats awesome man thanks!
That was a great podcast. I enjoyed listening to that
This made my night. Definitely could listen to this dudes stories for days
Absolutely nobody on Earth I respect more than Travis
Travis and Stephen Thompson
Man I’m not sure what made this video pop up in recommended but I’m glad it did. Great podcast.
Some people's demons are loud and going over that ledge is the only time where they get quiet. That hit me hard, I know that feeling too well. Really enjoyed this interview, it felt alot more personal compared to most other channels, keep it up dude!
travis is an absolute legend,and pretty humble,i have followed his career with interest,clever guy
Sweet he gave david Higgins props! One of the greatest rallydrivers!
If I could hangout with anyone in world for a day I would have to say Travis pastrana 👍
You would not be disapointed
Same bro
How has this taken me a year to find amazing interview
Stoked! Welcome to the Gypsy gang
What a fantastic podcast. Great job interviewing the most interesting person on the planet. It amazes me how normal TP is and at the same time, how extraordinary he is.
Thanks so much for the kind words
Your channel is rad man, people are mad critical over these podcasts. IMO you have to get the facts out of people by being genuine and keep the story going, you do that well. digging the BTS vlogs too hope to see you do more in the coming SX season. Subbed!
Quite an epic podcast!!
Great interview, i think thats the longest I've ever heard travis speak and you're right its a big deal in todays world. Can't believe the content you have and I'm only just finding it. Grew up in Edge Hill mate - good to see a cairns boy out mixin it!
Really cool! FNQ Represent!
This was a really great interview.
Thank you very much
Travis is just special… literally one of a kind type person, inspiring on so many levels!
In the story about his crash before the 2003 sx season that messed up his racing career, the Mac Travis refers to can't be Ronnie Mac. He wasn't on the scene until 2010 at the earliest.
I was just listening to this and was confused about that part! In 2003 Jimmy Albertson would have been, what, 14?
@@FANLESS and Travis was 20 then it’s possible
Absolutely Awesome 🤩
awesome story from the most badass dude
Awesome! I’m so surprised this doesn’t have way more views.
The amount of pain Travis lives with everyday is beyond comprehension but you would never know it. GOAT !!
Travis gets so damn happy when beer comes haha
What a human being! God bless him forever. 🙏🏻
Best 2 hours I just spent.
Way late but this is one of the best podcast/interviews I’ve ever seen!
He's a real dude and badass on top of that 🔥🏁
Ho does this not have more views this is gold.
Travis is such a great guy!
So neways"long story long" lol Travis's 1liners👍😁
Such a whole hearted humble guy ... 🤙🏻💯.
What a legend!
That was awesome.
Funtastic and Spot On
I was 27 i started racing Motocross an all i cared about was trying to fly the highest an the furthest off the jumps..as a novice i was showing the pros an expert class guys where they could get big air on the track...i dont think the track managers liked me much...i look back now an i kind get how mike metzger was feeling i just came to have fun...an the jumps were too hard to resist...i think the tracks were scared i was gonna land on someone....i just didnt feel real welcome....peace yall
His freestyle speaks for itself, but would have loved to have seen what he might have become had he stuck with motocross, he was so freakin good...
Agreed!
@@GYPSYTALES 100%
What a a legend
great podcast
It’s so cool to hear you guys talk about sleep, I’ve been dealing with sleep paralysis for years. With mine I can wiggle my toes the tiniest bit and it takes a little bit but I try as hard as I can to kick my leg hard enough to wake me up. The shitty part is the whole time I feel like I can’t breathe. Pretty fuckin kooky I know lol I am glad to know I’m not alone with this. Cheers jase
Travis Pastrana For President.
Cool interview . I didnt know any of that about nascar. I thought it was just racing in circles . Id love to know more details
Part 2 please. Get him back on!
When it comes to wheels and a motor and going fast Travis pastrona is an absolute f****** legend. 🤘🤘
Amazing worklads
Travis needs to go on joe rogan and smoke a joint!
i love that 2mins in travis says "bogan" 🤣 been hanging around to many Australians??
I guess I never really payed attention to what pastrana was doing, I had always heard of him, just never really followed. But it was really awesome to hear his stories. He’s a bad ass dude. But his parents story of sacrificing all they did, making 14 hour drives on the weekends and everything, that is what is truly bad ass
Travis is up on the tire🚀
I have night terrors as the interviewer describes. It's a relief to hear someone else has them, because they are fuckin gnarly. I can always tell when I will have one, because an eerie feeling overcomes me and the vibe in the room changes and it is very distinct, not a figment of my imagination. When I start to drift off into unconsciousness, right on the verge of transitioning to sleep state, a high pitched, loud noise rings in my fuckin ears, and chills run down my spine. I am able to fight this off, usually successfully, by trying to put it in reverse and reawaken. However, if I fail, or allow it to take its course, I fully enter sleep\paralysis\REM state, yet lucid (in that I know that I am "asleep"). It is at this point that I am fucked. I feel this is because I am in REM state, which has the framework for the crazy shit dreams and nightmares consist of, but am lucid and of conscious mindset, which makes me freak the fuck out. Just like the interviewer describes, I know my eyes are shut, but it's as if I can see through my eyelids and look around my room and see and hear gnarly shit.
I am convinced these are demonic attacks, because if there's one thing that's consistent in my night terrors, its that that's exactly what they are: terrors. It's not like I have night terrors and ever see anything pleasant, like butterflies and fairies flying around my room. The last few that I've had involved a gargoyle like figure, sitting on my chest, digging its talons into my chest and I can tell you, that I felt the pain of that in my chest, in a very real way, so much that when I awoke, I immediately checked my chest for marks. This past summer, the frequency of my night terrors was so much that it got to the point where I wasn't even really scared anymore, more just annoyed and pissed off. When they happen, I remember always calling "them" or whatever it was out, to show yourself and "let's fuckin do this!", in a "let's cut the foreplay" type demeanor. These episodes are interesting, yet so gnarly; I don't wish them on anyone.
I was in sleep medicine for 12 years so I can tell you a few things about night terrors if nobody has ever told you or helped you with it. Night terrors occur towards the beginning of your sleep cycle, in what they call stage 3/4 or Delta brain wave sleep. When you see those brain waves, normal healing and growing in adolescents, is usually occurring. Night terrors are typically not remembered. This occurred in there first half of sleep. When the dreams an nightmares are remembered, it occurs in the later phase of sleep, towards the end of your sleep cycle. REM sleep is a light sleep stage. You can actually pick up on external sounds like TV shows going on, while your in REM, and you'll start dreaming about it. I know a guy who has REM behavior disorder where the body does not release the paralysis agent to keep you from moving around or acting out you dreams. He actually ran out of a hotel room balcony and broke serious bones in his body, all while acting out his dreams.
The feeling of something sitting on your chest is called sleep paralysis or old hag syndrome. People use to report seeing an old witch sitting on their chests. This is actually sleep wearing off before the paralyzing agent does, so you feel trapped in your body, pinned to the bed.
delonick347 Mate I feel you, it’s the worst feeling when you know you’re asleep but know you can’t wake from a nightmare. I’ve been literally tortured & felt everything!
@@Bredaxe great comment
Travis said sorry for interrupting you...meanwhile it was dude who interrupted Travis..30 sec before he said that..hahaha
you can tell he cant just breath out of his nose anymore
Get the chance
Watch 199 lives
Travis jumping over the dam 6 gear pinned on a 80
Deegan came out and chickened out as usual
Travis 4 life
Drag and ok I guess but Travis is king of dirt
Travis understood very young what self respect and being who you really are and nothing less! His Dad and the level of teaching what life really is and not the bullshit of money makes who we are. So simple but the hardest thing to actually achieve!
You sure that was an 80?
All the way
Check out 199 lives on you tube
clark I actually own the DVD, but can't remember it being an 80.. I'll definitely check it out.. either way TP is the man
Travis is a special dude
Got pastrana breaths heavy
I think it's because he's too busy talking to think about breathing like us normal folk 😂
Travis is probably the envy of every adrenaline junkie on the planet, even after hearing how it's not always so glorious risking death practically every day. He just never stops entertaining. I'm sure there's some messed up junk bouncing around in the guy's head that he deals with in private... but despite it, the beam of light he projects to so wonderfully intoxicating!
After the total and complete thrashing that body has gone through for 34 years, you have to admit... he still looks really damn good! 🤣
“Now I gotta get my wife to pick me up”😂😂😂 such a sick dude
Drifting is slow more often than not in racing. The ability to drift helps to find the edge...., but siding your junk around corners is almost always slower.
Sleep paralysis is what your night tarror is. My dad had them also its stress and repressed fear in my opinion. There is like levels to it because my dad use to stand up and run around and scream and see random things in his room. Ive had it but not running around. Exploding head syndrom was my scary one. Its like wake up but can't move then its a sound like a kettle wisle blowing but starts really soft and not loud then as it starts to be loud its stops and you flash into white then black really fast but when it goes to black its like a shot gun sound in your head then you wake up like a fallimg dream. Usually theres like talking or people screaming just before the wisle build up.
TP grew up 90 minutes away from me. We raced some of the same tracks
Hell YEAH
i fucken love these podcasts man 😂🙏🏽
Thanks brother!
I hate the fact i live in germany.
I want to ride in pastranaland...just one day. In 2002 when i was on 85cc i already had a big pastrana sticker on my front fender....he allways was my hero. :D Supercross champ, national champ, fmx Champ...just the most iconic Idol in world!
Caleb Wyatt was the first guy to land the flip & ride away ! The first to flip a ramp to dirt landing too !!
It’s Travis’s world. We just live in it!
Bro the America Roll would be sick!
So at 1:38:45 he’s talking about sleep Paralysis it sounds like which I get and it sucks! Feels like someone or something is holding you down, and there is nothing you can do until you snap out of it...while at the same time you can hear with eyes shut, but can’t do anything else. Now put night terror/Hieroglyphics on that too...dude is nuts. Lol! Or an Alien 👽
Travis really does have night terrors from this but it's also combined with fear and reality
I have similar night terrors to you both. I get the paralysis like you do but see shit that isn't there like Travis does, but I cant move or yell bc of the paralysis, so I'm just at the mercy of whatever happens til it passes
“Way past noon.. Lubricated”
Wow he’s such an authentic quality guy. And his brain scans revealed why he’s not like most people!
upset im just now finding this.
me too, came to me at the perfect time though 😌
Tell me about it. 2021
@@thax0r172 👍🏽😆
I haven't heard this much truth in quite some time I applaud you both 👏 #RealOnes
Travis talks alot. More interviews should be like this. So that the interview doesn't drag on
I race 5 kinds of motorcycles but when i was 11 years old i skated vert in a giant half pipe75 feet long 14 foot high in 1977ish...i consider travis part of the family.....i move to florida an was trying to get a job working teaching motocross with GARY BAILEY...an i race hondas...an i look at gary an say what is this junk suzuki doing over hear in his pit...at my home track with a 199 on it...gary say to me ah well its travis's bike to which i say who who...i leave the race an go home an i skate vert so i knew the X games where on...theres travis somebody an mcgrath my hero going head to head in my event big air...well shit i guess im not winning that event ...travis was 40 feet in the air doing a wilma beats mcgrath...this is the travis i just left gary at the track 2 hours ago..for the florida winter series..at sun state race way in ona,florida 40 minutes ftom my house...
Absolutely amazing podcast! I grew up watching the OG's of freestyle MX and trying to mimic the tricks and create my own in the mid 90s 😃
I remember when this man my hero raced what sport I do or did and GNCC or a hardscrabble in general was cool to me
What headphones are those??
