@@Laahkin wow nice bud, a year late but good for you what a smart guy. “Your not that guy bud” p.s thanks for spell check, I’m to lazy to spell sometimes and I was tired. I was not in the mood of spell checking every little thing back in the day.
so when he climbed those stairs and recorded him walking past the camera up those stairs, did he just walk up put the bmx on the ground and sprinted back to get the camera?
Garrett Goodkin technically yeah, but i wouldnt call kt faking the climb completely in the end hes still climbing even more but its what creators do for the clips, just look at casey neistat he does the same thing for the views
he doesn't fake it, he does it twice lol, bear grylls said this in an episode he was alone, he had to place the camera ahead, walk/climb back down, do it over just to get the footage of him doing it, so really it's twice as much work
Your videos helps! Entertaining and informative. I'm 41yrs young, and new to the BMX community. I look forward to more of your content! Stay positive and love your life!!! Thank you!!
Funimati I know kids at my campus who actually take a few hills similar to this not as long but as steep. personally I'd never do it I ate it taking a hill and that wasn't fun at all so I kinda take hills slow now
I'm new here and this is the first vid of yours I've watched and I love it who cares about click bait it is what it is and if it helps the channel out then continue doing it while keeping it relevant
so here’s how i ended up here: i was in my bed and i was like “i’m 14 and i’ve never learned how to ride a bike. i’m gonna watch some bike videos so that i can see how cool it is and how much i really want a bike.” i looked up riding a bike videos on youtube. every one was “learn how to ride a bike” and even though those were probably useful, this is the one i clicked on. i’m honestly so glad i did. i went in my moms room and told her about it because it was so suspenseful and this dude is so cool. exactly the video i needed. time to watch more of his videos :)!
This was my first video from you and it was because of the title and thumbnail... you are one of the best small youtubers I've watched and I LOVE what you do, keep living life and doing what you do
John Hicks! You will make my day if you reply back🙂 Don't quit RUclips i actually like your video the quality is dope af too don't let this haters bring you down😒 KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK👍🏽👍🏽
COOLBOYz why are you dead? Casey vlog style is nice. It's good that Casey started a trend and influencing people to use his style of vlogs. Everything we do somebody has done that's life.
ImGairBair he gets his bikes for free because he’s sponsored, he gets money from his videos and also worked before this, you can find a nice m3 for cheap if you look hard enough. I know I’m late with this, but still
Firstly, as much as I'd love to hate on vlogging, your channel is exceptional. With that said, I fully understand why you'd use the thumbnails you use, but quite honestly, have you checked the metrics on it? Does it actually show that those videos have attracted more viewers? Don't get me wrong, pretty women are lovely to look at, but it all just seems kinda cheesy, and your channel is anything but that, man. Keep riding, keep up the good work, and don't feel like you need to rely on that kind of stuff. If anything, the lack of that sort of thing is what will differentiate you in the end.
As far as clickbait goes, it's understandable why any youtuber would use some form of it. All they want is for their channel to grow, and you can't critique that. However what you can critique are the thumbnails that are are setup or posed for and aren't genuine to what actually happened in the video. I don't critique your thumbnails at all, since they're all candid screenshots from the video, and I respect that about your channel.
i dont think its clickbait if that is in the video and i also came to your channel only with "clickbait" and i dont have a problem do whatever you want john
exactly what I was thinking as soon as I clicked on the video!! Haha so I had to look at the comments straight away to make sure I wasn't blind or some shit😂 found one straight away hahahs
I've never been into bmx only skating but after watching this video I think I love bmx lmao maybe it's your cinematography but either way dope! Subscribed
Making Money Is Money Sometimes U Gotta Do Shit Tht Makes U Look Bad But That's How U Make Profit .. I Don't Blame Him I'm Sure He Loves Doing RUclips But This Is His Income I Agree With Him 100%
Honestly, this isn't click bait, I just subbed to you bc this is a really great video and I am well entertained by. Thank you and never give up, you're awesome!
if ur talking about the hill he bombed its known as "culver city stairs" which he shows himself walking up just google search it and you'll find the address
Am I the only one thinking about how he has to keep going back to pic up his camera after them shots
No you arnt
Gabriel Akibo-Betts nope
Gabriel Akibo-Betts factsss😂 the dedication is real
Gabriel Akibo-Betts that's what I was thinking, so he pretty much doubled his work
Gabriel Akibo-Betts I was thinking the same thing I was like tf is he leaving his cameras??
I love seeing people doing something they're happy & passionate about. Life's TOOO short to be fucking around and not living it how you want.
MikeeJ Lol you can get it cut even shorter doing stupid shit too.
Pretty sure a century is 10,000 years. Yeah
.... I agree. Lol.
"Life's to short fuckin up is necessary" Luke Christopher Champagne Rain~
MikeeJ life really short when riding a bike at that speed with no breaks 😂😂
stan0966 fuuuuuuuuck it'

John Hicks I was right. #hixfam
John Hicks love your videos man keep it up you motivated me to buy a bmx bike this Christmas lol

so when he climbed those stairs and recorded him walking past the camera up those stairs, did he just walk up put the bmx on the ground and sprinted back to get the camera?
Adomas Labutis yes
its all for a content
Yeah i noticed that too xD, i was like, is he going back and fourth just for better looks? xD
Eduardo Martins ye me2
casey neistat does it all the time
I don't get how the camera gets to the top before him. Does he go up, place it down, go back down and fake the climb?
Garrett Goodkin yes
John Doe lmfao
Garrett Goodkin technically yeah, but i wouldnt call kt faking the climb completely in the end hes still climbing even more but its what creators do for the clips, just look at casey neistat he does the same thing for the views
he mentioned drone earlier, that could be it.
he doesn't fake it, he does it twice lol, bear grylls said this in an episode he was alone, he had to place the camera ahead, walk/climb back down, do it over just to get the footage of him doing it, so really it's twice as much work

You deserve more subs.
Enough said.
Thank you
agreed
Could it be that you got inspired by Casey Neistat (SHE´S A NATURAL SHE´S CRAZY FOR THIS and that camera XD
that what I was just thinking
I swear he reminds me so much of Casey Neistat, from the camera angles to the equipment.-
These late 2016 early 2017 John hicks vids were the greatest
8:23 for the people who came to watch him ride down the hill
Ethan Coronado thanks loads lmao
Ceminado not all heroes wear capes
Dickblast wrong. You can see him wearing a cape.
Ceminado Saviour like 4 that
Ceminado thanks
I was freaking out when he was going down that hill
Andrew Wayne He's got pedal brakes so he's ok
zeariumcs 233 no he doesn't
roxstar driftz u.s.a You can hear them when he brakes and when he slows down. They're syncronized
Those are his shoes
He was using his shoes to slow him down, he doesnt have breaks on his bike.
Whats up with the " uhh " every drop on that rail 😂
Stupid Fxcks I kept laughing during it haha
Stupid Fxcks More like UGHHHHHH
Lol.
Stupid Fxcks it's air leaving the lungs kinda like a gas thing

this guy has balls of steel
TheGamingDorito he crazy
If he did it on a long board it would be even more terrifying
Funimati I know kids at my campus who actually take a few hills similar to this not as long but as steep. personally I'd never do it I ate it taking a hill and that wasn't fun at all so I kinda take hills slow now
foot brakes
PerhapsToast alright how about you get going 15mph at least down a hill then take a foot off the board and put it on the ground.....
its so funny after he it a trick and land on the ground he sounds like he got shot off of halo

Joker - SoReqular he did that on his rear wheel
Yellow Nigga I think he used the ground towards the end cause it sounded a lit more rough. This guy is dope af tho
so here’s how i ended up here: i was in my bed and i was like “i’m 14 and i’ve never learned how to ride a bike. i’m gonna watch some bike videos so that i can see how cool it is and how much i really want a bike.” i looked up riding a bike videos on youtube. every one was “learn how to ride a bike” and even though those were probably useful, this is the one i clicked on. i’m honestly so glad i did. i went in my moms room and told her about it because it was so suspenseful and this dude is so cool. exactly the video i needed. time to watch more of his videos :)!

Zapien Gaming yeah I don't ask for likes either, those youtubers act like their subs are gods, and their pleading for likes and subs every video.
Zapien Gaming youtubers are saying to subscribe and hit the bell thing because youtube is fucking up.
Zapien Gaming he kind of did in the comments
Zapien Gaming youtubers need money like anyone else its their job to make vids whenever you like it or not
Zapien Gaming
You should put a speedometer on your bike to see what speeds your doing
Danny Maskell yea and the new GoPro tracks speed
Danny Maskell that what I was saying
Danny Maskell Use snapchat

He's 24? Holy shit dude... He looks like he's in his 40s, god damn..
the modfather no he doesn't 💀💀
Eh but then again I have an m3 and they ain't cheap to maintain lol
