They might be bad designs for drivability, but they are great designs for originality ! When they get me to laugh just looking at it, they deserve a gold medal !
@@shizukagozen777 Yeah, you got me there. Drivability was 0, you'd think they would have practiced to see that. But I still give them some points for originality.
The absolute best part about these races besides the creativity is getting to watch prime examples of entropy in action, like the giant castle falling apart.
To the people who criticize the designs; they are meant for laughs, not for winning the race. Actually it would be a little sad watching adults build a sturdy and fast soapbox- to win what?
Im crying laughing omg "hes got that humongous HEAD. Humongous MASK perched on his shoulders. Look at his arms wobble. I think he can see through the mouth" LMFAO
This is *nigh on* my 3rd video I've watched, never seen this before but I imagine most racers do make it alright and this is just a collection of hilarious failures
There's a first. I worked really hard this week and was watching this after work. I dozed off for maybe 5-7 minutes, woke up and explained to my partner "we're almost ready, the repairs aren't bad." She was like, "what the hell are you talking about?". It was so real. We just had a cardboard boat regatta about a month or so ago, but the video was playing while I dozed off and I jolted back thinking we were in the middle of a competition. Brains are weird.
its so fookin cool when you wake up and the dream is/was so real you continue the conversation or point something out, or start laughing at the joke you told or the thing that happened etc etc - its mad! your story give me a chuckle m8. love these wacky racers - first im seeing this stuff. theyre off their domes.
Taller than 4 feet: 💀 Narrower than 4 feet: 💀 Three wheels: 💀 Flimsy road bicycle wheels:💀 Needs a parachute: 💀 Steering by handlebars:💀 Steering goes to full lock with 1 inch wheel input:💀
I kind of love the accordion. Imagine if they made both the front and back steering. So that they could switch positions every time it swings around. Essentially they could go down the track while spinning in circles. 😂
I don't think just sticking a couple of adapted bike frames together without putting some sort of fuselage over the whole assembly is really in keeping with the spirit of the event.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a soapbox go farther without its driver than the that vineyard one
They should’ve let it kept rolling and see if it made it to the finish line. No harm trying.

Agree
Nah, the accordion one is truly terrible...

@@rjwalker4153
Ok, I agree that it's an original design... But damn it's an ugly one ! 🤣
@@shizukagozen777not rlly,but some are tho…

The accordion was hilarious and the wine connoisseur's launch was crazy af!

Indeed. Where’s the fun in this with zero accidents ?!
Anything with a trophy involved, people will compete for, but I get it. It’d be A LOT less entertaining without the crashes 😂
They may not be first in the race, but they are first in our hearts.
Some of the road rash these guys eat is significant.
No guts no story
The guys with the bare legs especially. Oof
I love the commentator, he is genuinely laughing at what he's seeing. Makes my day every time.
The giggles and excitement from the commentators make the race even better. The smiles on the competitors faces are priceless
The commentary makes this so much more fun, the guys enthusiasm is second to none 👌
Darren Fletcher, football commentator.
The guy host 😄 Sounds like he is really enjoying covering the races. His laugh makes me laugh.

Best fun ever and created 😂 thanks for making me smile your amazing crazy ass people 😂❤❤
I’ve been watching this for 11 years and the Ballpit Is 100% the funniest one ever
Including all the crowd noise, when there's about 12 people there! 🤣🤣
True
This is *nigh on* my 3rd video I've watched, never seen this before but I imagine most racers do make it alright and this is just a collection of hilarious failures
For me it's the vw camper van, makes me laugh everytime
Imagine going 40km/h ( 24 mph) in a tiny box with 3 wheels and no seats
you clearly haven't heard of the Peel P50
"Don't go backwards down the course!!!"
The dude with the Saab and the caravan "Hold my beer..."
Lmao 😄 these are awesome.
Props to all these people being good sports about their hilarious failures! Seems like everyone had a great time regardless.

This is the best comedy channel on RUclips! 💯
The little castle bopping along haha!! Three different size wheels was my favorite tho LMAO
Only thing these videos are missing is the hilarious commentary from Vic Romano and Kenny Blankenship from MXC. Haha
@5:36 Jesus turned Water into Wine! The wine being, of course, his own blood.
Lmao true 😆
@ 2:15 Buurman and Burma is a CLASSIC ! "Oh, he's gone!" The absolute best crashes are ones like these that kind of happen in slow motion.
Haha!! Love the castle! Funny stuff. Love this channel and the seductive voice of the male narrator lol 😅😅
The Frankenstein @4:30 was to much 😂😂😂
The commentary makes this stuff great
The accordion keeps on fishtailing LOL
I'd like to have beers with the announcer and have him play by play a night of people watching lolol
“Feel the rhythm, feel the rhyme, get on up, it’s soapbox time.” -Cool Runnings
Did NOT know I needed this in my life .... lol
That castle looked like a wet noodle towards the end. Haha
"He's actually got his work cut out to get from the top to the bottom of the ramp." Damn. XD
8:37 bro went back to action like it happened on his daily basis
Absolutely awesome fun , Thank You for sharing it with us, mere mortals .
Taller than 4 feet: 💀
Narrower than 4 feet: 💀
Three wheels: 💀
Flimsy road bicycle wheels:💀
Needs a parachute: 💀
Steering by handlebars:💀
Steering goes to full lock with 1 inch wheel input:💀
2:20 The 3 wheel different sized wheels one looks really fun to ride on.
This kind of thing that maintain my faith on mankind
The worst designs that never should have been made but were really glad they were
Great to see people enjoying themselves! 😂
Love these videos. They make me laugh
I kind of love the accordion. Imagine if they made both the front and back steering. So that they could switch positions every time it swings around. Essentially they could go down the track while spinning in circles. 😂
After watching this, I believe four wheels is the optimum design.
I mean winning constructions are great and all but these one who fails spectacular is the ones you remember!
F.cking legendary event! ;)
I’m disappointed they stopped that barrel roll. I want to see how far it would go without the operator.
Belgium has alot of bad engineers huh? A little advice from American Engineers… USE LARGER WHEELS Lmao 😂
1:17 This content deserves its own theme song
The creators of the world soapbox championship are probably looking at this right now and saying, "It's gone out of control"
I don't know why I am here but I am 😅
"take his life in his own two hands, " was way too funny, i have to say
I can't believe I just found this today, just today. We should not be doing wars, we should be doing this.
Fr, like forget wars: settle all major debates in soapbox races, and then negotiate.
It took 25.5 years for me to discover this.
Well i guess I have Years worth of content to binge. If of course its easy to find
What? This is from 2020. Are you watching this in 2046?!?
The Bouncy Castle is a brilliant idea to save injury in case of crash.
That lopsided trike was bizarre but hilarious!
6:36 he take his hand off the handle to Italian gesture lmao
this are the real heroes
Dude in the wine barrel had the best bail.
THE LAST ONE WAS THE BEST. lol! These guys clearly didnt do a test run. xD
Weird Al would be upset every time that second soapbox kart crashes, he loves accordions
En qué país o lugar son estas competencias tan chistosas 🎉
Seems fitting that Yisus should crash 3 times on the way to the finish line.
"Cruising for a Bruising!"
Designed to be outrageous, certainly no desire for stability. It is very entertaining I must admit.
The castle has fallen 😂😂😂
I love seeing everyone so happy having a good time!
The accordion is spectacular
Oh, the irony of the accordion crashing next to the guy with the NASA hat 😁
What do accordions have to do with space exploration? lol
the Narrator is great@😂😂
7:30 thats very funny
Was the marshal sleeping when the castle was torn down
Speed control is very important in this fragile construction...🏎️
I thought maybe they were not allowed to have brakes.
I don't think just sticking a couple of adapted bike frames together without putting some sort of fuselage over the whole assembly is really in keeping with the spirit of the event.
So the castle fell over, but did it sink into the swamp? 😂
6:05 that me as a cannon...greeting from indonesia🇲🇨
Castle is legendary
Herrlich 😂 👍👍🤘🏻🤘🏻
It'd be easy to design and build a machine to do the job, but it wouldn't be nearly as much fun.
Accordion 😂😂😂
Love the sign #autoslocos - it's how the Wacky Races cartoon was called in Spanish speaking countries.
Has anyone done the Jamaican bobsled thing? Watching 4 people launch down the track would have to be bedlam.
Well forklifts have rear wheel steering. lol
Now i know stupidity exist for a Good reason...
😂😂
Darren Fletcher = GOAT
Fact that everyone is LUAGHING! #LIFE
Love this. They must not be allowed to test them ahead of time? At all?
Apt;y titled video! The accordion car should have has independent stearing; but still pretty dubious design. Entertaining though!
The three wheel concept by far who Made it never saw a reliant robin go through a corner
Well there's a mod for halo MCC called cursed halo again that includes a warthog with three wheels referencing the robin
..Awesome upload respect from me 👌
@ 12:32 Kalle Rovanperä as a judge 😂
Some of the accidents look really bad. A miracle no one gets seriously hurt.
0:48 that chick sounds identical to "The Finals" commentary (The finals is a fps game)
You can see that fire engine had many many hours put into its build as were many others
By worst, they mean it as the BEST
Surprised there was no Japanese soapboxes, they usually go for style over steering
That circular bid could of impaled someone.
This is insane! With flugtag they land in water. These guys land on pavement when they crash!
Pram wheels NEVER work 😂
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I didn't even know Soapbox was in South Africa...
Wipe out lol 😕😕😁😁😜😜
