Nice to see the sportsmanship here, there's no anger at other competitors because they were faster, just congratulations and admiration for each other.
@@jerryx2000 you sound like an absolute fool of a took
I mean, I would be in a good mood reaching the bottom regardless. this is like a childhood dream.
отл.
This is a race?
yes! I like in his mountain of hell videos he was like "please stop, we are the same. stop being angry." such in the moment this could get frustrating.... but come on, not against others man if anything it's the individuals fault and no one else's.
Dude, mad respect. That's one of the craziest things I've ever seen. I lost count of all the places where you could have died. Awesome.
its not that hard to ride a bike...
What I learned from this is “fuck everyone else I want to go speedy” in a good way obviously
@@gtxoiltastebad on ice it is
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
@@gtxoiltastebad you will wet yourself
I got this randomly recommended on RUclips, and I was mesmerized by the landscape beauty, I literally couldn't stop watching, I can't believe I watched the entire race nonstop. That was as amazing. Great video indeed
Same here !
I am going to watch this on my VR!
Thanks damien for sharing this run,
That's what a friend for 22:40 btw.
The fact that he's able to narrate while he rides is amazing. You have to be at your top peak physically to do that.
they study the map before the race obv but id still get lost LMAO
edit: I posted this on 3am lol
@@LKonstantina915 i'm referring to him talking the whole time while riding. you are thinking about the word navigate.
wait what
After the first crash he knew he would end up out of the top 10 so he started talking. If he was first place it would have been stupid to talk.
@@SirPeterlll Yeah he knew he was out of the top 10 race so he just started to enjoy the race (+ his front brake died so the competition was pretty much over)
Damien - you are an incredible athlete, commentator and quick thinker. You also appear to be a great friend to everyone. Thank you for the incredible videos and please be careful!
I'm not so sure about the commentating, I do not understand a word of French...
Let him trying at least you make another one
@@yououtuber4176 turn on english subtitles my friend!
@@yououtuber4176 he is pretty fun, especially when he talks to deal woth the fear "oh im loosing my tools"-jumps and almost crashes-"i also almost lost my life "
I can't say enough good things about this. Congrats to all finishers (yes, and also to those who could not finish). I'm an old man now, but I think I've never had as harrowing a visual experience as this one. I caught my breath every time Damien Desbosses had to adjust his goggles! Still . . . what an experience just to witness this from the safety of my home in Salt Lake City! Many, many thanks.
This is the longest RUclips video I've ever watched all the way through. It was exciting the entire time. The athleticism demonstrated in this video is incredible.
My wife and I huddled and watched the entire thing too. Best 47 minutes of entertainment all year!
Really appreciate the narration and the English Translation. Such an Epic Event.
Watched the whole thing without understanding anything. Your comment made me realize there were captions -_-
These races always trigger the RUclips algorithm 😂
Yeah, bcos the sponsors pay them to!
@@MattBlytheTheOne then im glad they do because if not i wouldnt find these amazing vids
@@LePadro I find them easy enough without being led by an algorithm. The algorithm makes as much effort to hide videos as it does to promote them.
@@MattBlytheTheOne bit I wasnt into mtb and stuff like that so it was cool doe
11:38 RUclips is spot on with my cocaine fiend videos! Imagine how good this guy must be to do a key bump while riding down 2600m mountain going 100. priorities he got them down. Pretty sure he bangs it around 46:00 can't believe he cooked and slammed a shot while biking...amazing
We all need a Vincent in our lives, that sort of energy can make you feel like you can do anything. This is my third Owlaps video today after finding this channel. LOVE it!
One of the most absorbing and exhilarating videos I’ve watched. Fantastic. I’m 58. I need to go buy a mountain bike now 👍🏻
Love the comradery between the riders.
It’s like they are going to eat together lol. Some of them probably aren’t going to make it.
We all need that one friend at 22:40, don't we ?
I have no friends that fit.
He was adorable.
What a great friend!
a bro in its natural habitat
What a great ride. A great inspiration. So many moments of support from spectators and riders. I imagine no matter where you finish, you feel great at the bottom.
Kudos to the people who make these bikes, rides like this must really hard on the bikes and I can't imagine the pain riders would feel if a wheel comes flying off.
Thank you for sharing your experience!
Великолепно!
Благодарю за съёмку.
Восхищаюсь мастерством и реакцией!
Breath, man, breath. The dark, muddy forest was insane. Can't believe how long this course was!
40 минут экстрима на велике - это просто жесть. Очень признателен автору за качественное видео, железное здоровье и надежную технику! Поздравляю!!!
Wow, I really enjoyed riding down the mountain with you, your breathing, fears, and 11 place finish! Congrats. I loved it!
Hi Damien, it's awesome that you give us a play-by-play of the race as it's happening. Thanks!
I always watch these and point out the times I would have died. I woulda missed that turn, I woulda ate those trees. etc. You guys got some brass balls and the physical fitness of a god.
This was mind blowing and jaw dropping to watch and I watched right from the very start up to the very end. Amazing. Beautiful. Thanks Damien.
The support from the other riders and the encouragement from the fans was just the best! I know that has to be a major factor in getting to the end of one of these mega races.
Look at that view, imagine being that lucky to view such beauty
Thank you for risking your life for us😁
😅
He doesn't do it for us.
@@Mixo1998 really?
@@Mixo1998 Exactly. While it's entertaining to watch, I didn't ask him to do it. I suspect he'd have done it even if RUclips didn't exist.
@Clever Wolf France
9:35 and 25:30 gorgeous in HD.
Closed Captioning - fantastic!
Brilliant race start bar.
The record of the effort, of one player, throughout the race is exquisite.
"i'm all alone, it's hard mentally"... I know the feeling but it's so satisfying when you reach the end by yourself.
Love this view. Great to see the inside aspect of Kilian Bron avoiding that obvious pile up at the first corner, by taking a controlled inside line.
Quel run encore une fois!!! Je sais pas comment tu fais pour réussir à parler en même temps. C’est top d’avoir le feeling au fur et à mesure! Les pertes de lucidité, les reprises la motivation les commentaires sur les riders! Trop fort Damien!! Merci…. Cela dit la MOH a l’air quand même bien moins physique. J’ai risqué la MOH cette année mais pas prêt de tenter la mega!
Bravo Damien! and Bravo to all the competitors as well, this was WILD to watch! Through the forest looked so daunting because you could hardly see anything, but you managed it well! Now off to watch the Mountain of Hell race!
Holy shit!!! THAT is one of the best racing-videos I have EVER seen!!! I'm exhausted just watching this video. :D This is the kind of racing I was dreaming about, when I was young. Keep up the good work.
SAAMEEEEEEEEEEE
You got 11th and that was amazing dude, your an inspiration to me as to what the human body can endure for 45 mins. Thank you for this excellent video.
Everyone needs a friend like Vincent
What a race, and those landscape. AMAZING!! Greetings from Brazil!!
Balls of steel and a mighty athletic base. You have my respect and admiration! 🙌 Thanks for sharing.
I did a 1000m elevation ride (climb/descent) yesterday and I'm spent. Can't imagine something like this. Well done!
Pretty sure they get chairlifted
I am out of breath just watching this, well done
I love the sportsmanship and respect between all of you!
Thanks so much for having French subtitles as well. I'm still a French learner and would never have understood you without them.
Wow! That is such an epic ride, a testament to your amazing riding skills! The down hill parts are just terrifying! And hey, front brakes? Who needs them? Haha!
Congrats on an awesome finish😊 You're my favorite!
also amazing engineering skills
I noticed that you would hold your breath when there was a difficult spot. I held my breath for the whole ride. Brilliant
Amazing riding on an amazing course!
Watched the entire thing.
Very well done and great result!
You should be very proud of yourself.
One hell of an endurance race! By far longer than other Megavalanches I've seen. Well done 👏
Been waiting for this 🔥🔥
Wow! What an amazing and difficult course. I’m blown away by how far you could ride downhill.
I speak like three words of French, and this whole thing is still amazing. I've watched a ton of downhill racing vids, but never on a glacier for some reason
Все времена года показал! Спасибо за видео!
my 11-year old son (and myself) loved the video! We do a little downhillcycling now and then and now he wants to do this next year. 🙈 Me, not so much!😂
Ce carnage au 1er virage!!
Bravo pour ta descente en tout cas.
Well done. So much admiration for all of you guys that do this race.
Vidéo tout simplement sublime !
3/4 d'heure de bonheur !!!
Merci !
So intense, I'm shaking behind my screen ! 🔥🔥🔥
Just watched Kilian Bron's race yesterday, and gotta watch Damien's today. very cool.
same. It was quite funny to see him ride when Damien fell down. I was like; Hey, that's kilian over there avoiding the drama!
Watch both video synchronized, very nice when they are near each other in the begining. :)
Bravo ! C'était une course vraiment magnifique.
Push the limits. Super sensation j'connais à bout de souffle :) super vidéo, Magnifique. Bravo les gars
I watched all...Good job! Your narration makes it more interesting for the viewer and the camaraderie on the bike is nice to see😊
You did that BEAUTIFUL nature a justice by rendering the video in THAT high HD!!!👌👍👌👍👌👍👌👍😍😍😍😍
That moment when you start watching the vid and thinking: Wow, almsot 50 minutes - soo long. And then the vid ends and I'm like - wait, what? It ended?🤣😂🤣
I thoroughly enjoyed the whole ride - it was just breathtaking (no pun inteded 😜😜) 😍😍😍
everything in this vid is magnificent. the view, the trail, the caravan, the cyclist, the bike, the cheers, and the will. everything
I have skied at Alpe d'Huez but never thought anyone could ride a bike down it - incredible skill - congratulations.
대단해서 말이 않나올 정도다. 저런 험한 길을 자전거라이딩을 하다니 감탄에 감탄일 뿐입니다. 모두 모두 화이팅
Обалдеть, здорово, вы все молодцы!!!
Je découvre cette course et quel run !!!! Chapeau bonhomme t’assures gavé !!
Respect à tous ceux qui se lancent dans ce défis , il faut les avoir bien accrochées !!
La partie la plus folle?? Celle sur neige à toute allure à l’air la moins tendu que le reste mais quand le crash commence c’est l avalanche de rider par terre!!!
Celle où il y a des grosses pierre, là ou les virages serrés s enchaînent inlassablement, là où la luminosité change et est inexistante à ses grandes vitesses!!! C’est gavé de chez gavé technique!!!!
Chapeau bas……
bon travail! ça n'a pas l'air facile du tout ! et tu t'es même cassé le genou! trucs de fou 🔥🔥💯💯
22:40 meilleure soutiens ♥️
Очень круто, красивая гонка!
Это самоубийство, на лыжиках надо, дышать, радоваться
@@smolnui7777 по камням на лыжах это сильно, но буду знать, если велосипедистов обгонит какойто лыжник то это наш
Always live watching your videos. Good luck for 2022 season. I’ll be with you. 😻
I just can't believe what I just saw. That was simply amazing!!
I've definitely chased my share of adrenalin hits in my time, but this race always seemed downright crazy to me. 🤣
I would have got lost and ended up at some Bar on the other side of the mountain😂
that would have been a nice story to tell then :D
Apart from your great comment, I had to jump in here to say props for your profile pic! The Ayotollah of Rock 'n' Roller! The Humungus rules the wasteland 😎
it saddens me greatly that i will never have the opportunity to experience something like this, but these videos still manage to take my breath away and almost make me feel as if i am there, its fantastic, thank you for sharing this
Not really my thing, but popped up on my feed, and I watched the whole video. Amazing skill and scenery! Great job!
Привет из России - отличная гонка! 👍
Imagine this in IMAX.
Better yet with a VR headset. I reckon I'd need a change of jocks after that.
Merci RUclips pour la proposition, franchement chapeau ! Dangereux et physique. Impressionant.
Love the commentary. I’ve watched a few of these now from different riders head cams. But your commentary swings it.
I always watch Killian Bron run. In fact, Damien started behind Killian. Killian perspective is more to speed cause only 1 person in front of him then Killian lead the race. While Damien perspective is also great which show you the chaos behind Killian that I couldn't see!!
You did a fantastic job of getting down that mountain without injuries and even finishing 11th which is nothing but an excellent effort. Even with that early pill-up at the top you still made good time coming down. Congratulations.
grand respect ! j etais dans le dur avec toi le stress dans les descentes ! merci pour ce bon moment !
Wow dude...how fast do you think he got during 42:33 thru about 42:52? Seems like he went from fast to insanely fast. Also I loved the commentary the whole way down. What an amazing race! Great job!
I always love Watching Damien ride his bicycle. I am also a top flight bicycle rider.
Dude you are awesome. Thanks for sharing. Will watch more of your videos.
Epic ride. My fav passage was the snow passage and the rocky one. All-round great
Salut, combien de kms en tout sont parcourus ? à 42:33 quelle vitesse dans la forêt wow !!! Félicitations à tous
This makes me really want to play Riders Republic 🤣🤣
Wow that was so thrilling! Especially the beginning. I can't believe people do this. I was tense and terrified just watching it.
It was shocking because at first I started watching it thinking it was a video of a game.
It's the craziest and the funniest. I didn't even know there was such a sport.
Human curiosity and inquisitiveness is always amazing.
Soooo good! Which u had the speed & heart rate on display too ..
I wish I was in that physical condition. I respect and envy those guys.
ikr , i just quit smoking and i was like the king of the world till i see these dudes lol
WOW~!!!! You're amazing physically and mentally But the most amazing part was the "Vincent show" on the climbing part. What a great energy to give on the right moment.
bonjour c'est super de vous voir les gens qui vous soutien enormement , une convivialite , de vous voir , je vais reprendre le velo moi qui adore et que je roulerais en vtt tout terrain comme vous , merci pour les balade derriere mon ecran et vive le sport , je me suis abonné et félicition pour la video , je suis en Ardeche
What material are those gloves made of. I need that to clean my glasses.
I think he peels plastic layers off the lens as he goes?
microfiber? Normally you use microfiber for cleaning glass
4:45 felt that like a dropping elevator.
That was pretty cool. I can totally see a whole genre of video games being made to simulate this!
Congrats man! Amazing finish a race with brakes troubles.
"what would you say your biggest weakness as a bicyclist is?"
"I'm not great at peddling."
"...oh."
"I almost killed myself there"! like he didn't the whole video lol
Просто потрясающе!
Как будто сам спустился, супер!!!
impressionnante cette descente ! il en faut du courage bravo!
Блин, на это страшно смотреть даже сидя в кресле с бутылкой пива.
Респект!
А мне нет, но у меня чай
