CENTIPEDE
This worm they call the Centipede, was crawling on a car.
The distance that it traveled for a worm was not too far,
But how the wind was blowing it scarce could navigate
And from the back and to the front it's course was laid out straight.
His fifty legs on either side he raised with utmost care,
And set his toes to grip and hold so as not to blow off there
And while he valiantly did try to go from aft to fore
The car was going down the road at fifty miles or more
Little did the creature know how swiftly he did fly
It was for him to crawl along and not to wonder why.
The man that held the steering wheel and made the car to go,
Thought he was just going for a ride and little did he know.
While the country side he knew beneath his wheels rolled by
Twenty times the speed he drove above him moved the sky.
And while he thought he traveled west the opposite was true,
For with the turning of the earth it was backwards that he flew.
And yet there was a greater speed with nothing to compare,
The earth in orbit 'round the sun, a year from here to there.
So crawl on little centipede and relate to what you see,
Leave Einstein then to theorize on relativity.
183 mph is fast,
but have you ever seen a toddler run after you ask "whats in your mouth"

@Hussein Abbas except a motorcycle has a motor. The only propulsion that she had was her own legs. The gears are nessesary because no human has legs fast enough to go over 100mph with normal bike gearing.
@@thestarlightalchemist7333 mate quit trollin. that woman was towed to 184mph on a "bicycle" that really isn't a bicycle.
@@BroScro Seriously what is with people commenting on sports they know nothing about. No she was not towed to 184 MPH. She was towed to about 110 ish MPH and then accelerated on her own power the remaining time. If she was towed to 184 MPH why do you think she broke the record on her last mile marker and not her first mile marker? She didn't break the record until like mile marker 5.
@@twirdman2 why do you think a human can accelerate from 110mph to 184mph on their own power? you're insane lad. she gave enough effort to remain in the airstream behind a vehicle going 184mph. this is not 184mph worth of EFFORT. At the very most, she risked her life as much as a motorcyclist (her bike is built like a motorcycle)
@@BroScro "fastest speed paddling on an bicycle". Not "fastest speed paddling on an bicycle with no assistance".
She did not do it on her own effort. She is towed to some speed under 184mph (maybe anywhere between 110mph to 170mph), and with the help of the wind shield of the car to reduce air resistance, cycles to 184mph.
Also, as long as it doesn't contain a motor, it is a bicycle. After all, the definition of a "bicycle" is "a vehicle consisting of two wheels held in a frame one behind the other, propelled by pedals and steered with handlebars attached to the front wheel."

Great comment...
It isn't insanely expensive and it is definitely not easy but yeah I have always thought that barrier to entry sports are dumb. If every single person on the earth was a billionaire then the entire formula 1 lineup would be different.
Weird flex but ok
I thought she could pedal that fast... I was like, that's impossible. Then realized she was dragged up there. Next time, strap onto a rocket.
Wait I don't get it? What does that dragster do
@@tajwarjamil6186 The dragster gets her up to speed so she can start peddling on her own power, the gear reduction would make starting this bike almost impossible. It also provides a windshield as the wind resistance at those speeds would be nearly impossible to overcome.
@@twirdman2 not only a windshield, the dirty air push her from behind, It's kinda sucked in
@@Jackrece yeah the hole inside the windshield is basically a vacuum. Still a cool record though.
She is peddling. I think I half the people didn’t watch the video.
18:07 If anyone is wondering why she was pedaling seemingly comfortable before she let the wind slow her down, it's because right behind the dragster, at high speed, a low pressure zone forms for some distance, so when going inside of it the efficiency in her legs power is optimized and she doesn't have to deal with the overwhelming wall of air that would simply squash her out of the bike seat in an instant.
She's been sucked all along... dragster and air did most of the work. Credo to anyone just to hang on there.
oh so that's how it works, eh?
No, I'm sure everyone thought she just had strong legs
I would be willing to try
The cyclist was tied to the car till 105-110mph and she pedalled from 110mph to 184mph. I’d say that’s pretty impressive.
the bike is geared so high its basically impossible to peddle from a standstill
tied until at least 140 in the record breaking run.
Tied over 100mph and stayed behind it to avoid air pockets….this is ok but not all that great since her main job is to hold on and maintain control. Machine did most of the speed gain.
More like car reaches 184 mph with woman attached to the back of it.
If it was so easy..
why didn't men do it for the last 2 decades
@@soumyasundarhazra6406
IDK... Maybe no one thought to or had the desire to do it. Maybe people didn't think that this counts as the world record for speed on a bike. Are you saying that a man couldn't do this? A child could do this. Because being pulled by a car is not that big of a deal.
@@soumyasundarhazra6406 men were to busy doing more extreme things
As always, there are the people who do things, and the people who don’t. From your comment, it seems like you very likely fall in the latter category.
There is absolutely no shame in being an observer rather than a doer, however, I do think you should be ashamed of yourself for sh*tting on other people’s accomplishments. Imagine if the next time you achieve a big personal goal, someone told you that it wasn’t very impressive and a child could have done it.
I don’t know why I’m lecturing an internet troll, since it probably won’t make a difference, but the negativity in your comments was incredibly upsetting to me. Why can’t you just be happy for her?
Perhaps you think it’s unfair that she’s being interviewed while you’re not? Well, if so, let me just say that it’s very clear to me why the video is on her and not you. You and I both know very well that a child could not have done this. In an effort to make a point, you’ve exaggerated to the point of nonsense. If it’s so easy, why don’t you go out tomorrow and prove me wrong?
I hope in the future, you can come to appreciate the work and effort that goes into something and not feel the need to tear it down relentlessly.
I will not be responding to further comments.
they're not actually attached during the speed measurement, the gearing is so extreme they need to be towed up to a certain speed that they can then maintain/build on _very_ gradually. (like a glider being towed up and released behind a plane) (but I do agree if you mean they couldn't just go out and do this without having a car provide a vacuum pocket to sit in and 'pull' along to some extent)
Title: "How this cyclist hit 184mph". Thumbnail: Dragster pulling a cyclist

what's wrong with that?
Special thanks to the comment section for making this video possibly entertaining.
hahahaha savage
I don't get why this is a "record"... you're essentially getting towed.
Only up to 110 mph. The rest is her pedaling. The car is only there to keep th wind out of her way.
Yup she not start from 0

@@AllenHanPR No, that car can't do 700, maybe 200+, and the driver cant go slower than the bike, or the bike will crash, and if you go too fast, the bike will hit the air and crash, probably killing her.

Fredrick Hawthorne If you think it's no big deal try it yourself. If you have an accident at that speed you will either die or get seriously injured - possibly for life. What a stupid comment you're making.
I think maintaining stability at those speeds for that long is really impressive. But to the credit of the folks in the comments section, if the video were just re-titled “How this cyclist _maintained_ 184 mph” I think the comments section would be a LOT nicer, because as it is now, the title is QUITE misleading.
Except that is not what she did. She accelerated. She was not released at 184 MPH. She didn't reach that speed until around mile marker 5, these are mile markers from when she was released not when they started driving. The goal was to release her around 110 MPH and given they had the GPS working on the actual record attempt that is likely the speed they released her at. Might have been slightly faster, was not likely any slower.

Lesson learned: If you are wealthy enough, you can buy yourself a world record.
This has little to do with her athletic ability (she’s 45, way past her prime) and everything to do with specialized, expensive equipment and a team of professionals. Take a no name competitive male cyclist in his 20’s, give him the same equipment and he’d blow this record out of the water.
That toaster cyclist guy will destroy this record ! (Just by looking at his legs)
At this speed it's much more to do with willingness to risk your life and ability to keep the bike from flying off, hitting the sides of the dragster and flipping over handlebars more than it is about pedalling power.
S S Sure, but this is ultimately a barrier to entry problem. There’s lots of people willing to do even more dangerous life threatening things such as jumping between tall buildings or whatever, but how many of these daredevils are millionaires several times over?

The benefit of draft is just amazing. When I see a peloton of roadies I'm always wondering how dangerous it was to be sandwiched between cyclist. After watching this video I can truly understand the reason behind it. Doesn't change the fact that it's also extremely risky.
I've ridden in pacelines moving up to 27-28 mph. It's an amazing feeling. You try to keep about one wheel diameter of space between your bicycle and the one ahead of you, but it takes very steady riders to make it work, and good communication is critical when the peloton needs to slow down. If your front wheel overlaps and touches the back wheel of the cyclist ahead of you, it will cause you to crash because you lose the ability to steer.
That's the real thing most people don't see here. It's not that she was tethered, it's that she's using the drag of the vehicle itself. That's the real "cheat." It's not a "windscreen" or anything. It's literally the suction of the air pressure behind the vehicle.

So you're saying that she didn't need to pedal at all, because the low pressure behind the dragster would keep her pulled in?
WOW I NEVER THOUGHT ANYONE WOULD BREAK THE OLD RECORD !!
"They have to literally read each others minds"
No. They don't.
The earth is rotating at 1037mph and orbiting the sun at 67,000mph and going around the milky way at 500,000mph....so when I ride my bike am I the universe's fastest cyclist (through space)?
Dude, 184 mph, while kind of cheating, what would be the difference if u got on a bike in a garrage on those test wheels, u pushed it to like 400 MPH theoretically with no friction from the ground or the wind, i mean might as well jump out of a plane with a bike and say that u are ON A BIKE faster than 184 MPH.
You were riding West while I was riding East Alex so I was riding faster :P . I'm also closer to the Equator so I had some extra kmh from that as well.
I don't know about you Alex but I saw so many aero issues with that attempt that I reckon I could give the record a serious nudge even with my staying power.
FastFitnessTips: Cycling Science! Depends on your relative location. But likely not
Breaking news ,the earth is stationary .Just came out 2019 yrs ago .
J B the record has to be in two opposite directions within an hour. Cycling back up to the plane would be a little bit of a challenge. 😄
i took my bike on the bullet train and broke this record
There’s a record for everything now a days. Apparently it’s to hard trying to just break a normal sprint record so they started adding new ways to go fast to keep making up records.
"now a days" Bicycle riders used trains to draft behind them and doing 120km/h (75mph) in the late 1800's already. People like you discover something on the net and think it all started the minute you discovered it. As for bicycle riders drafting behind race cars - that has been going on since the 1950's.
Boy...she sure is humble. No ego there.
none at all😃😃😃
It's beautiful. 😊🌎✨
Why not just put the motor in the bike and call it a day? Oh yeah, then the record is 376mph and is actually difficult to beat.
Maybe because she didn't get towed after 110mi/h... If you think she achieved nothing then I would love to see you doing it.
@@TristanPopken give him a custom bike, a specialized vehicle, and a team of professionals to do the heavy lifting. I think he'd manage.
Tristan Popken I’m pretty sure I would be able to do it about x2 times faster
Tristan Popken it really is pathetic
MMD You’re an idiot lol
people need to calm down here. it said "worlds fastest on a bike" not "worlds fastest cyclist". thats way harder to beat
13:52 when I used to run track I used to get so nervous that I would feel drowsy and it was like a calm feeling
That man with the white hair reminds me of

Clownish hair, red nose and scary make up
World's fastest bike or world's slowest dragster?
It's not about the dragster, it could most definitely go faster. It's limited by what the cyclist could do.
@@lazarnedeljkovic5615 I think this was meant to be a joke
@@robinrumpfkeil9546 it is an insult
@@robinrumpfkeil9546 eehh, looking at it now it probably is, I was just annoyed with the idiotic comments on this video. I replied to this one because I didn't feel like writing an essay about why op is stupid
@@lazarnedeljkovic5615 I understand you on this one. I replied to quite a few asshole comments here
"Nothing is out of reach if you're willing to do the hard work for it." What a beautiful outlook on life. I want us to get to a place where that's a universal truth. I want that for us. We can do it.
You’re just getting towed, doesn’t really count lol
she was towed until about 110 mph, and for the rest of the time until 184 mph, she was pedaling
either way its not legit id like to see her do it from a standing start... smh
@@josephius she was getting vacuumed by the drag racers windshield. Still cheating
I currently hold the world record of shortest attention span
"how this cyclist was towed 184 mph"
Well technically, she was towed to ~150 and accelerated under her own power to 184.
Brian Bethea no not even close
She literally used the physics of Aerodynamics to push her up to that speed
Brian Bethea she used the vortex created by the slipstream to push her bike into the back of the car. not her own power
Thats straight up sick. I did not even know anyone ever did this for an official speed record or made it an official event.
Fastest person SITTING on a bike. Not cycling
Everyone saying that a man could do it better. The sad story is, you are right.
Queleimporta Pene the do it coward
Mike Jim you don’t even know if he is a man
Men already tried this and she break their records. So until you find a man with courage to try to break her new record, you can not said that.
What she attempt was really dangerous, imagine going at 180 mph with your body in your worst possible aerodynamic pose, and you go a bit to the side and suddenly you found 180 mph wind in front of you, you would fly far away and die.
AngelLestat2 my guy it’s a meme😂😂 your actually more of a meme because u comment on everyone joking around😂😂
@@ihateall3966 Oh yea ofc, its 'just a meme'
She's not the fastest bike rider. She has just gone the fastest
R elyks that’s the point?
That's literally the same thing. She rode the bike that went the fastest. "She's not the fastest, she's just gone the fastest." Brilliant analysis. Though, you've managed to take the point of the record and completely miss it along the way. Still, brilliant.
She was towed to the fastest speed
@@doodoodeedoo3958 She accelerated under her own power after untethering. They had to tow her up to starting speed since the gearing on the bike wouldn't allow a standing start. These were the same conditions as the first record that was set, so it's a legit run.
Andrew Elias *sighs*
If you understood the physics behind why she needed to be towed to 110 mph before releasing from the tow vehicle, you would understand that the only effort in her part is to hold on and not die. The vortex created by the slipstream literally pushes her into the back of the tow vehicle, hence the bumpstop attached to the front of the bike.
The only skill involved was from the driver not increasing speed to fast keeping the car steady to avoid killing her.
This is why you kids need to stay in school so you don’t get fooled by stuff like this, bye your welcome
I clicked on this video thinking Denise actually accelerated to 184MPH on her own, or going downhill to do so.
Cool. Loved the video. Good documentary.
I was running on the road and a rocket powered car hit me,I officially am the worlds fastest runner
Infinite bless you good sir 👏
I refuse to like
My hamster made 30 000 mph in front off space sutter
Mine tripped while running in his wheel and he went mach 4
Mine farted, went 200,000mph
did you hear that "100% custom bike"
I've gotten to ~45 mph on my MTB with the assistance of back wind and a steep hill lol
I did a hill bomb at night on a road with my bmx that has bright lights and was going near enough 55 mph with a school bag on my back, my brother was there too and was going a bit slower that me, was so much fun
@@RJMFTE its really not safe but it is soo much fun to do lol
For those of us who understand a bit of physics, this seems more like a giant loophole than a record. This is a drafting record, not truly a biking record. Why not have Usain Bolt run on a treadmill being pulled along at 200 mph and call it a land speed running record? Or you could be carried up Mount Everest and claim to have summited it.
I dont understand Usain Bolt cant run at 200 mph
A loophole? lol, This "drafting" could easily end anyone's life.
James O sure it could be lethal; climbing Everest on the back of a Sherpa can be as well. If you swam in 20 mph rapids you might be brave, but nobody would call you the fastest swimmer.
No one is calling her the fastest bicyclist, the record name and how you achieve it is very specific. All I see are a bunch of dudes with their testicles shriveling up because a girl did this. If it was a guy I guarantee no one would be downplaying it.
James O why not just call it a drafting record on a bike? That would be fair and accurate. I don't really care if a man broke her record. It's still got a fussy name for a quixotic achievement.
Lets trigger feminism;
Guess what there was a *man* behind the design and engenieering of the equipment needed.
Pft! Ded!
dude you are my hero
David Valencia - So in other words, a man *ALLOWED* her to go that fast.
Yup bro.
Well, you got triggered before anyone lol
Hitting 184 mph on a bike is impressive.
Hitting 184 mph on a bike while pushing a dragster is even more.
Cant tell if this is a joke
I’m glad someone finally put the Grim Donut to good use.
