It was really entertaining to see the crowd slowly grow in size as the video went on. Shit, man, If I saw someone sending something like that, I'd stop and watch for as long as I could, too!
makes me so happy to see people stick around to see him finish it even though they may not even be into skating. they just see the perseverance and show respect. restores just a little bit of my faith in humanity.
right ? sometimes I can't understand how people can just go by like is nothing. I don't care for BMX riders but if I saw one in the streets doing something amazing I would definetly stay around and cheer the guy up or something like that If I had the time... but most people just walk by.
Exactly what I was thinking, I was surprised to see the same people watching so long. I would have quit my job to stay there all day and watch him land that, but I wouldn't expect so many people to be so respectful of his determination. Absolutely legendary.
was feeling the same thing. i try to imagine how they feel when they see it. Prolly like, this guy is gonna kill himself lets watch lol. But they cheer in the end when they realize the guy is damn good..
I was trying to Ollie a five block that was taller than me and I had been skating for about 8 months and It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in skating that for sure was my war
Yeah. Can remember the battle I had trying to switch hard flip the lyon 25. Took me so long but I can remember the feeling of rolling away, all that effort and pain paid off....then my alarm woke me up
This is the best Thrasher “My War” vid. The positive reaction from the random passerby’s was the best part. They (most likely) don’t know who this guy is or give a damn about skateboarding, but they saw a guy persevering. They were genuinely proud of this stranger landing s skateboard trick.
The best part about this video is seeing all the people who stuck around just to see even one of Dane's attempts. People who've never touched a board before, never seen a skate video before or have never even had interest in skateboarding took time out of their day to support him because they knew what he was doing was meaningful, difficult and took talent, despite not knowing who he was or what exactly he was doing. Even a disabled guy sat by that ledge for hours and cheered for him when he landed it. That means a lot, when a group of people come together to celebrate a strangers success in an activity that means nothing to them. They stayed not because he's Dane Burman or because they like skateboarding, they stayed to see success
First time watching this video and this comment is exactly what i felt i love watching people doing skate,huge gaps, rails and tricks. This effort and passion was awesome :)
Skating is %100 taming ur mental to conquer the once thought impossible. I've seen a guy really get into his car hating himself because he couldn't get himself to 50-50 the down rail. When he knew he could easily do it, having them on lock. But once he finally did it. It's the best feeling ever. Seen lil wayne explain that feeling, as better than all the happiness his legendary soul has experienced on this earth through his career.
The better you are at skateboarding the better you are at falling off of skateboards. It sounds cheesy, but there is just as much skill required to fall softly as there is to land a trick.
buggld also his nails were him on bolts landing from high impact. that's why bails are more brutal when doing flip tricks and being janky on your board at landing, than already being set up for a perfect landing on the board
This is the meaning of skateboarding to me. Yes is nice to go out and just goof around and go home but the best part about skateboarding is when you land something and you just know that you did something amazing. I only had that feeling maybe 2 or 3 times but everytime I knew that this moment is special for me. I can't even imagine how Dane felt here but I bet it was better then coming.
My absolute favorite part of this video is the bystanders watching him every try and waiting for him to land. Goosebumps every time I see the random civilians cheering him on after the make.
2:24 guy on wheelchair wathing you....dude this guy is nuts !!! This video is great example that skateboarding is amazing and it can be understand by normal people :)
This one brought tears to my eyes. I felt like one of the people watching just hoping he would land it. Watching everyone celebrate was amazing. Gnarly af
When you dream of something & then you put yourself into making it happen & it actually happens...that right there is the best feeling. This video was emotionally jarring, so hyped to skate right now!
That's one of the amazing things about skateboarding. The comradery. The fact that so many strangers will sit there with him and watch him try the trick, cheering everytime, encouraging him, rooting for him and hoping for the best. Really cool to see. It really can bring people together
i love videos like this that showcase the raw talent and determination put into each trick. I especially love seeing tricks go down with pedestrians walking by in shock at what they are seeing this is real skateboarding.
I was in philly and looked at this thing today. I knew it was high but this dude is fucking nuts. You can't really grasp how gnarly it really is until you see it in person. The drop on the end alone is high as fuck.
The song, the trick, the spot, Dane Burnam. This small clip brings so much inspiration. I remember being scared of rails, but now, that's changed. I've landed my first 50-50 and going to practice even more
Dude, I saw this in complete awe on the cover of Thrasher. Finally, almost two years later I actually got to see it. This was completely amazing and crazy!
Home town philly. I used to skate pass this spot all the time. I remember this cover shot and his video part. Brought some moisture to my eyes seeing his battle and winning. That’s philly.
You’re right. It’s one of the coolest things about skateboarding in my opinion. If you skate, you’re a skater. Doesn’t matter what color, gender or religion
I've never skated a day in my life but im addicted to all the characters in the skating world like Beagle , IC , Kader , Etc I can't get enough of it I might fuck around and buy a board
Hundreds of years from now, people will look back and wonder how anyone could possibly do things like this. Someone, somewhere will always know his name
Im doing Parkour for about 13 years now and i absolutly can feel that mental thing!! In many situations its not about the body strenght its just all about the mental strenght and the will to keep going until you did that thing!! Great job mate!
True meaning of insanity!!! Skateboarding has and will always be part of me till the end has taught me to never give up on your vision your goals... its been my inspiration to move forward no matter how hard you fall
Every human being can recognize the effort and determination put in by another. I’d say 75% of the spectators couldn’t care less about skating but they knew what they were witnessing was something special and a true example of the resiliency of the human spirit so they stuck around until the end and provided their support. Very cool video, awesome trick. Hope there’s more!
This is so sick. i've seen many skate videos with hard gabs. But when i see how hard he hits the ground all time and stand up again and again. Very much respect! i feel the same when i try 6 stair olie -:D
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)
I like how the people watched and cheered him on, instead of complaining and calling the cops.
Jason Wozny If only everybody including the police were like that.
That spot in Philly everyone is so chill
You can actually briefly make out a bike cop at the end cheering along with everyone.
i made this exact comment, and then i saw yours. It´s so cool to see the ppl loving it.
It was really entertaining to see the crowd slowly grow in size as the video went on. Shit, man, If I saw someone sending something like that, I'd stop and watch for as long as I could, too!
2 hours straight at The Municipal without getting kicked out is unbelievable! That drop is 10x scarier in person man!
Sounds like a man who's tried this spot before
Do you skate?
@@Robert-xk9no he's definitely seen it
Micheal Trapson YOUR 🔥
Waaaaaaaay scarier. That shit is *huge*
makes me so happy to see people stick around to see him finish it even though they may not even be into skating. they just see the perseverance and show respect. restores just a little bit of my faith in humanity.

Trust me philly people are the most hype around, everything is worth being celebrated to us.
My war is the epitome of what skateboarding is. Whether it is 3 stairs or 13, we can all relate to getting that heart heart up.
Yup. When I was trying 4 stair and 3 stairs I felt like I was having a mental my war battle. A beginner can have my ears too in their head.
I was trying to Ollie a five block that was taller than me and I had been skating for about 8 months and It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in skating that for sure was my war
Yeah. Can remember the battle I had trying to switch hard flip the lyon 25. Took me so long but I can remember the feeling of rolling away, all that effort and pain paid off....then my alarm woke me up
oh my god, Please make more "my war" episodes
Fr
Yes.
Tommy's front side flip!
fuck yeah!!
david gonzalez's huge ender on that multi kink rail would be a fascinating one.
People don't even realize how insane this is until you actually ride up to this. I'm from Philly I'd know. Shamone!
😂
Shamone!
Bro i went there a couple months ago. SHIT IS INSANE
It doesn’t even look like a spot the whole spot is next to it 😂😂
Yeah you tell em mike
This is the best Thrasher “My War” vid.
The positive reaction from the random passerby’s was the best part. They (most likely) don’t know who this guy is or give a damn about skateboarding, but they saw a guy persevering.
They were genuinely proud of this stranger landing s skateboard trick.
Not anymore
Agreed. Even if they were not into skating they could see these guy was doing something epic and had incredible courage.
Bacca is the shit now.
My war: ollieing over a pebble
pftttttt, thats expert level, my war is ollieing over a line in the sidewalk.
gonorrheaagorgonzola i know man hang in there
All gotta start somewhere, took me thirty minutes to learn an ollie off a curb
Only thirty minutes? Lol I've been skating for over a month and can barley get off the ground more than an inch.
gonorrheaagorgonzola pffft that’s fucking 1 level below expert lvl my war is fucking ollieing the road
The best part about this video is seeing all the people who stuck around just to see even one of Dane's attempts.

Skateboarders are among the most mentally resilient athletes you will ever see.
Them and big wave surfing
Agree
You got that right. No matter who may disagree, it’s facts. Skaters are a different breed.
Skating is %100 taming ur mental to conquer the once thought impossible. I've seen a guy really get into his car hating himself because he couldn't get himself to 50-50 the down rail.

Seen lil wayne explain that feeling, as better than all the happiness his legendary soul has experienced on this earth through his career.
right on. ill never forget seeing Figgy in the hospital during an operation saying " are we done here?"
The guy with in the wheelchair is the real MVP he stood there watching the whole time he should've got the cover of thrasher
+I'm Tokey 😂😂😂
Well he was the only one with a chair so
He was on the cover tho
He made it in the picture
u said he was in a wheel chair but he also stood there the whole time 🤔
It's great that he landed it, but honestly I'm more impressed at how not-horrible his bails were.
+buggld These people are just as good at falling as they are at skating :D
The better you are at skateboarding the better you are at falling off of skateboards. It sounds cheesy, but there is just as much skill required to fall softly as there is to land a trick.
yeah go head grind a 10 stair and then do a big ollie off the grind no shit he was a bit scared
I could'nt stop thinking what would happen if the weels clipped at the end of the rail
buggld also his nails were him on bolts landing from high impact. that's why bails are more brutal when doing flip tricks and being janky on your board at landing, than already being set up for a perfect landing on the board
love seeing the spectators stoked as well
There was something so beautiful about the man in the wheel chair watching him. I can only imagine what one would think.
This is the meaning of skateboarding to me. Yes is nice to go out and just goof around and go home but the best part about skateboarding is when you land something and you just know that you did something amazing. I only had that feeling maybe 2 or 3 times but everytime I knew that this moment is special for me. I can't even imagine how Dane felt here but I bet it was better then coming.
Well said,
agreed, one of the best feelings one can experience in life. cheers
I agree! First time I finally landed a kickflip I felt amazing.
Amen brother.
Agreed. First time I landed a pop-shuvit I blew all over the front of my jeans.
This is my favorite MyWar of all time. That crowd hype is just amazing.
I still think my favorite thing about this bit is the random people are so into him landing it, like as much as the skaters at the bottom. love it.
yeah the guy in the wheelchair watching him skate made my day.
My absolute favorite part of this video is the bystanders watching him every try and waiting for him to land. Goosebumps every time I see the random civilians cheering him on after the make.
People just casually walking by not realizing this is one of the gnarliest tricks on a skateboard lol.
I think anyone walking past who sees someone grinding a handrail leading down to a two story drop with a kink at the end knows it's pretty gnarly bro
+Nick Swan 2 story drop my ass his almost as tall ass the rail
lol seriously
edyfofashow It's like fourteen feet, that's pretty close to two stories
CaseysBeats u
u know the trick was heavy when the skater covers their face with their shirt when riding away
+Jason Chimera That's a big signal yeah!
@@solhibberd1819 ...
i teared up when he stuck it
Facts. One of the best feelings
gh0stykins kinda gay
2:24 guy on wheelchair wathing you....dude this guy is nuts !!! This video is great example that skateboarding is amazing and it can be understand by normal people :)
Adam Celadin aaa nazdar pane který hází nože 😂 miluju tvoje videa
That's how that guy ended up in a wheelchair
@@philgruber3522 yeah he was clapping when he landed it.
@@snorgisborg2 lol
This one brought tears to my eyes. I felt like one of the people watching just hoping he would land it. Watching everyone celebrate was amazing. Gnarly af
When you dream of something & then you put yourself into making it happen & it actually happens...that right there is the best feeling. This video was emotionally jarring, so hyped to skate right now!
Mad respect to this guy, 4 years later and this is still one of the gnarliest tricks ever
Still get goosebumps when I watch this, especially the first try. Seems to surprise me every time I watch it that he has the courage to go for it.
Best “My War” episode. The music and interviews were perfect!
So gnarly. More of this series please.
This is the my war I always come back to. I've been watching it for years and it still gives me chills.
Love how "Jaws" has become an adjective for anything drop that may blow your knees out. Mad respect 👊💯
When i recieved the thrasher magazine in my mail a day i 2014, and saw this as the front cover i was blown away. amazing.
THRASHER NEEEEEDS TO MAKE MORE OF THESE
That's one of the amazing things about skateboarding. The comradery. The fact that so many strangers will sit there with him and watch him try the trick, cheering everytime, encouraging him, rooting for him and hoping for the best. Really cool to see. It really can bring people together
Even after all these years I still come back to this
Yep, here I am again
i love videos like this that showcase the raw talent and determination put into each trick. I especially love seeing tricks go down with pedestrians walking by in shock at what they are seeing this is real skateboarding.
its so cool to see other people gather around and watch skateboarders try to do their thing and then be as stoked as them when they land it
This is amazing. I actually cheered him on! I wish I could be there for these monumental moments in skateboarding.
I was in philly and looked at this thing today. I knew it was high but this dude is fucking nuts. You can't really grasp how gnarly it really is until you see it in person. The drop on the end alone is high as fuck.
The song, the trick, the spot, Dane Burnam. This small clip brings so much inspiration. I remember being scared of rails, but now, that's changed. I've landed my first 50-50 and going to practice even more
MORE MY WAR EPISODES!!!! cmon everybody lets bombard thrasher untill they have to do it.
Hard work, Dedication, Passion, Perseverance. 💪🏼❤️
Dude, I saw this in complete awe on the cover of Thrasher. Finally, almost two years later I actually got to see it. This was completely amazing and crazy!
This trick was in "Cold War". It was released in 2013.
Anklepants Skate Zine i think he means see the spot in person
I didn't get to see Cold War...
Watch it
This is the best series. It truly showcases the perseverance and determination it takes to be a skateboarder.
Shoutout to the old dude in the neon t shirt. Was watching him since the beginning.
Home town philly. I used to skate pass this spot all the time. I remember this cover shot and his video part. Brought some moisture to my eyes seeing his battle and winning. That’s philly.
How beautiful to see different races and ethnicities there to cheer him on. Shows how skateboarding has no color boundaries..so beautiful
You’re right. It’s one of the coolest things about skateboarding in my opinion. If you skate, you’re a skater. Doesn’t matter what color, gender or religion
I love all of the compassion that everyone is giving him. I wish people would do that where I'm at 😔
i cried a little
Most beautiful 50-50 thats ever been done. Cant stop coming back to this vid. Amazing
This video explain perfectly the reason why I love Stakeboarding.
Bet video in this series hands down, from this gnarly spot, to the crowd to the music behind the footage. Beautiful.
what song is it?
I have no idea but that shit with the chorus and horns as he’s trying that drop over and over gets me going every time
just to see the bystanders get hype let's me know everybody loves skateboarding
I don’t now about skateboarding too much and I just start watching this videos like 3 days I go and I can’t stop watching it this shyt is amazing
Damn this spot is in session the skate sim. Imma have to pull this off in game! Incredible
Its so much easier in game
I've never skated a day in my life but im addicted to all the characters in the skating world like Beagle , IC , Kader , Etc I can't get enough of it I might fuck around and buy a board
Do it man!! You already know some of the sickest dudes. Never too late, hitup a skateshop near you
The music goes so well with this 🔥
I know it was already said 2 years ago, but oh my god. Please make more "my war" episodes.
Respect for that guy in the wheelchair staying the whole time to see the land
That’s such a classic cover. I remember seeing this specific one when I was younger and always thought it was such a great capture
Love the crowd's reaction when he landed it..
I love these 'My Way' videos, more need to come!
Do a my war video on tommy's frontside flip on the 20 stair.
Yess or Brockman's sw 50 down hollywood 16
Diego Rabago he did that first try didnt he?
Do one on the whole cold war video haha
Alex Harr boooooo
Tony .Hawk DAMMIT TONY
The people cheering and raising their hands brought a tear to my eye. That support alone can sometimes be the biggest motivation for skaters
I love how everyone cheered for him instead of yelling at him.
Best skate series on RUclips. Period.
Gnarly shit. Definitely wrote his name in history books with this.
That was so gnarly! Such an amazing series. Reminds me of the ON Videos. Thank you Thrasher for documenting skateboarding!
Hundreds of years from now, people will look back and wonder how anyone could possibly do things like this. Someone, somewhere will always know his name
Cameron Hanna a Years from now people would probably be doing 5-0 and nosegrinds on it.
Zakavion Shepard no they will be sitting on there lazy ass's looking at fucking tv saying to them self what the fuck is a skateboard
Jake Jones Are you kidding there's fucking 11 years old board sliding Hollywood high rail. Skateboarding in a few years is gonna be fucking insane.
Zakavion Shepard but there's so much fucking technology now what do u think it's going to be like in 20 years
Styrofaom 52 no one stepped to it still
I just discovered these My War videos yesterday and I'm hooked!!!!!
He basically just looked in death's face then kicked his ass.
Nah. More like he was tickling deaths ballsack
+Jason Palacios very accurate analogy
Martin Nguyen mhhuh
Nothing better than having your crew around to cheer you on. It’s like an extra 50% courage.
Side note, music is spot on here.
2 fuckin hours of free falling off that!?!?! Dane is life beyond the realm of humanity.
One of my all time favorites on this channel
I Just had MY war on à 4 stair with à tre Flip... Took me 1,5 Hours to land bug THE Homies supported me al way through. And I tot that shit...
Autocorrect fucking up THE comment....
Autocorrect fucking up THE comment....
Autocorrect fucking up THE comment....
bonjour Mon ami haha, good work on getting your trick
sick
This very well may be one of the most satisfying series of skate videos on RUclips and this might be the best one.
Do A My War vid on Tony Hawk's 900 in the Half-Pipe at the 99 X Games
Powderkeg
What and how he stole the trick from
tas ?
Hoonatic Bloggs you don't steal a trick, you land them.
hahaha really? Are people still crying about that. How come he never landed one at the 900 contests.......
the most beautiful thing is seen those ppl at the end clap for his successes especially the man in the wheel chair.
I love the guy in the wheelchair, I have no idea why, just love him
same bruh he wait until the success ❤️
Im doing Parkour for about 13 years now and i absolutly can feel that mental thing!! In many situations its not about the body strenght its just all about the mental strenght and the will to keep going until you did that thing!! Great job mate!
Who dislikes this ? Seriously no respect
Shane oneil fans they like little stuff
Diego Rabago please... wallenburg isn't little. either is switch flip back lip 12s , stupid
you got to love the opposite a little
Security Guards.
nijah huston fan
no matter how many times i see this clip im still amazed everytime
Please make an episode with Shane O'neill's Nollie Back Heel down Wallenberg
we all know it was first try
ImTooAbstract looooooool
ImTooAbstract 3rd
after today we I've learned it took him 13 tries
True meaning of insanity!!! Skateboarding has and will always be part of me till the end has taught me to never give up on your vision your goals... its been my inspiration to move forward no matter how hard you fall
That black guy in the wheelchair was your biggest fan
This is insane one of the best tricks I’ve seen
I almost have a new favorite skater
Where I been at this series is so amazing
This is a snowboarding level trick on a skateboard.
Skateboarding is waaaaay sicker
@@jamessmith6794 True, but snowboarders hit rails are way bigger. This would be throwaway footage for their videos
@Based Canadian dude its a compliment
@@khakicam5400 except that snowboarders have their feet strapped to the board and land on snow
Gilbert Paroma its a compliment
If I'm ever feeling unmotivated to skate I just watch this and I'm fully stoked again. Dane is such a rad dude.
Holy shit that was sick
Every human being can recognize the effort and determination put in by another. I’d say 75% of the spectators couldn’t care less about skating but they knew what they were witnessing was something special and a true example of the resiliency of the human spirit so they stuck around until the end and provided their support. Very cool video, awesome trick. Hope there’s more!
He spent 2 hrs attempting this and never once fell off to his left side, where he'd fall to his death maybe. I don't understand that.
thats why dane is PRO AS FUCK
He leaned back a little every time
He's from Australia. Down here, we lean to the right.
This has to be the best edited video on youtube. Amazing work.
every time a new person would walk by and see him attempting the grind, in the back of all their minds they were thinking this nigga crazy as fuck
Can’t believe it’s been 7 yrs senes this has been touched
I think the people watching and sticking around is the thing that makes this video
HappyLlamaz because if you see this going down, whatever you were previously doing can wait
This is so sick. i've seen many skate videos with hard gabs. But when i see how hard he hits the ground all time and stand up again and again. Very much respect! i feel the same when i try 6 stair olie -:D
You've got to be fucking kiding me!
first skate vid i ever watched, love it
How can anyone dislike this?? Must be a missclick
this is a super dope series. i used to subscribe to thrasher mag back in the 90s.
glad i found you again
