Fire On The Mountain - Official Grateful Dead & Chris Benchetler Film
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- From the mind of Chris Benchetler comes TGR's latest short film collaboration with Flagship Independent. Improvisation is the silver thread that weaves this crew together. Just as the Grateful Dead did not fit their music into an established category, this short film finds a cast of some of the world’s best athletes on a spontaneous journey of skiing, snowboarding, surfing, and music, complete with a soundtrack comprised of only Grateful Dead music.
Narrated by Hall of Fame basketball player and television sportscaster Bill Walton with music supervision by David Lemieux, audiovisual archivist and legacy manager for the Grateful Dead, Fire On The Mountain features some of action sports’ most legendary athletes: snowboarding’s Jeremy Jones, Danny Davis, Kimmy Fasani, surfing icon Rob Machado, and skiers Michelle Parker and Chris Benchetler. Captured over the course of the winter by cinematographer Tyler Hamlet with the help of Sweetgrass Productions, the visual journey features never seen before visual effects within nature and original artwork by Benchetler and Skye Walker.

How can we pick if I was in awe every second of it!?
The narration was on point and the inspirational quote at the end was important!
"convince each other that its worth the ride, and all about the FLOW" :)
Just as the music plays the band, the mountain shaped the land and the ocean carved the sand.
Favorite moment was when Fire on the Mountain started playing and went into the jam.
As the music has always been creative and inspiring, I find the video being just as beautiful, creative, and as great as the music is and always will be. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece with us all! :)
Beyond incredible film!! The snowboarding after the boat trip was mind blowing!!
RIP BILL WALTON. A TRUE OG HEAD ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just added my Walton your Face sticker to my bent 110's 🤘
We're beyond stoked to share this film with the world, hope you enjoy!
Well done and thanks for making my day. Walton's preaching, The Dead, and breathtaking filming all complement each other so perfectly.
@@jeffreybanks0519 thanks for watching!
Merry Jerry Christmas and winter to me! Love it!
Awesome footage in some far out places. Thanks for sharing.
Is this the whole thing, or a preview? I could watch this for hours! Well done and thank you!!
I'm not surprised that this turned out so well coming from the mind of a Mammoth local. I'm a snowcat mechanic at Mammoth and remember when they were shooting the night riding. It took a lot of cat support and the cats always break down more during storm cycles. All I knew at the time was that Benchetler was doing something on Hemlocks with lights and Dead music. Glad to be a part of it.
All the events and competitions, plus everyday grooming, that depend on snowcats, would eventually come to a standstill without snowcat mechanics. Without snowcat mechanics, every ski area would be littered with broke down snowcats.
Thank you for keeping the snowcat on the move!
I've been in the hospital emergency room for the past 39 hours in excruciating pain due to crohn's disease complications. This film is what I needed! Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I've never seen such beauty, color, nature and inspiration while watching some of my favorite athletes doing what they do best to my favorite band! So amazing! Will help get me through surgery this afternoon with a big bright smile on my face! Thank you 1000x over and again!
u doing good two years later?
Hope your stomach has healed friend. I know the deads sound guy had an all meat diet maybe that could help you. I have digestion issues and go to that when its acting up.
Bill Walton narrating, crazy.
Not really - Walton has been a friend of the Dead for years - probably on of the most public Deadheads going way back...Happy Sunday!
This is probably the most underrated film i've ever seen
This is the kinda stuff that makes me proud to be a Deadhead. 💀
Yes
Dill Will always
@@codyg2485 Haha I love your pfp. From syl and a dead head.
Yes sir ❤️ forever and always
So many things make me proud to be a deadhead but the thing that makes me most happy is Grateful Dead plus snowboarding. Does it get any fuckin better
I saw them at the Lyceum, London '72. Amazing show & sound; we were mid-floor level. My English friends had never heard of them (!) and at first they were totally thumbs down....(they were into Yes and prog rock). BUT.... by about 4th song they were up dancing and they totally never stopped all the way through One More Saturday NIght (which was orgasmic) ....they became total deadheads right in front of me.
This is soulful, visually stunning and it has the ideal soundtrack!
"Just as the music plays the band, the mountain shaped the land and the ocean carved the sand." Bill Walton is amazing in every way.
Infusing my 2 all time favorites, dead and skiing. Well done!
That was one of the most beautiful films Ive ever seen. As a life long deadhead snowboarder and surfer, this made me shed a tear of joy. Forever grateful for the humans and the natural landscape this world has to offer. Much love everybody!!
the way the glowsuits light up the snow when they make a powder wave under the red and purple lights was just amazing. i love night riding for sure but that was on a whole new level. amazing.
What the athletes did was, of course, amazing. Watching them I kept thinking, "I could never." lol But I have to say, Tyler Hamlet's cinematography is breathtaking. What a great job all around. Thanks for making it available to watch. Happy Holidays!
I love when worlds collide and make one ☝🏾
Amazing piece of work. Congrats to all involved. You've painted a masterpiece. Thank You!
This would be incredible to watch on Imax!!
Yow !! "...make each day YOUR masterpiece." 🤟
gives me chills... so beautiful
So good! Thank you TGR!
Thanks for the stoke!
Thank you that was the version of fire I heard 30+ years ago and have wanted to here again since then
Playing in the band shot were my fav!!! This whole thing gave me chills
Okay no its the fire on the mountain with the LED
My Man! The scenes in Alaska were just mind numbing and combine that with the greatest music ever and I am in paradise!
This qualifies as the most creative movie of the century
One of the better videos I've seen
40 years ago this day, Jerry Garcia played "Fire on the Mountain" at Portland Coliseum and blew up Mt. Saint Helens.
It happened. I was there. Bill Walton, too. Good times.
INCREDIBLE-straight forward and about as close to perfect as something can be!! Very well done and enjoyable.
What a wonderful surprise. Been getting back into snowboarding this year.. something I’ve loved doing my whole life, and as a dead head for life.. this just brightens my day.
Outstanding, impeccable, and just freaking awesome! I love everything about this film...but if I have to choose a favorite, I think the night time skiing & boarding was magical! My first show was when I was 13 in Philadelphia and I just turned 50 in November...what a long strange trip it’s been! May God bless The Grateful Dead and may he also bless you my friends for making such a lovely masterpiece, thank you!! ♥️💯🙏🏼🥰
Unbelievable all around!
So many of my favorite athletes and artists, amazing to see it all come together.
Awesome work guys and gals. The Music brings back good feelings of the mountains
David Lemieux a Canadian Legend!!!
The night lit surfing was unreal!
Bones flying over a mountain on fire, Must be mammoth! Love it, had my toes tapping and head nodding the entire time. I need to get back in my ski boots and in the snow. Great job guys and gals!
Like wine and cheese, these two were meant to be together. Thx TGR. I love the inspired gear too. Please!
unmatched vibes and energy in this film
WOW! So much love, beauty and joy! Just Perfect
THE DEAD AND TGR.... two of my ALL TIME faves .....
I love the use of bright colors that are pretty atypical in a skiing setting
THANK You!
HEADY AF. Kudos on making the world's coolest music video to the Cornell Fire!
Night skiing is the best thing ever!
Wowzers! Beautiful!!
Work will begin soon on the next chapter. Cant wait
Wow! heaven!😎👍💘Sure, i like having my head smashed in with hard core action music, but that just makes this magical journey with Jerry even more special. An audio/visual dream.
Definitely a KILLER vid amigos..... in The Now!! *THX Teton Gravity* from the warm shores of the Mexican Pipeline in Oaxaca. Or as we say down here, "You dudes ain't got no ballz…. You've got frickin Coconuts".... on straight vertical drops!!! Big Hugs to ALL. I'd better stop here, before I "dominate the rap, Jack"..... Peace (and ever-electric quietude).
Are you kidding me? Best film ive ever seen. Wow.
What a fantastic combination! Just watched this with my son and we both said it should have been longer!! Fabulous photography/choreography and amazing skills! Thanks for sharing :)
Loved the "Fire on the Mountain" song.
Sooooooo Sick!!!!!! F'n Masterpiece????? Editing, filming, song choices.... Perfect!!!
This film is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. The awe-inspiring, death-defying, athleticism and stunning visuals set to a soundtrack that uplifts my soul are a great antidote to the fear and anxiety our current situation has me feeling. Truly mesmerizing, a unique work of incredible human achievement.
Loved the project...without love in a dream...My favorite part-Fire on the Mountain.
Love the skeleton night skiing! Been waiting for some Dead tracks on a video! Well done!
This is gold. Pure gold Jerry
This is amazing!! Well done to everyone who went in to making this

This is freakin awesome! So stoked to get out on some snow now
My favorite part was watching the transitional sequences of the water and snow shots, super playful with the imagination ☀️
I love the variety in this film. I watch every morning when I get into work. Thanks so much for keepin on.
