Moron.
It is fake in a way. There is full documentary of how they did it. Not in real but setup traffic…
What part of Red. Bull. is opaque?
dusanmal…once he broke a windshield at about 2:00 I started thinking that might be the case.
Maniac on wheels?
Better description:
Idiot of wheels

A vandal with a cool bike. I want to see his next performance. You know, the one in East L. A. with the G-ride.
Way to me porch sitting old people on here. This is just a Red Bull promotional video nothing crazy about it. Just one very gifted trials bike rider showing off his skills in an urban environment.
Spending a couple pesos on abandon vehicles and a peso to buy off the local polica is not edgy. I’m not sure where Red Bull’s audience is on this commercial. The tricks on the motobike were boring. I’m sure the cost of this ad was the cost to fill a local walmart shelf but if they are looking for a Mexican consumer base they will need to do some more market research. Mexico city is fucked. No, you don’t even know how fucked that place is – is how fucked it is. Don’t drink the water, drink the red sugar water from Austria.
Dupont and his buddy made a movie a few years back called “out or section” it’s insane, I’m sure you can find it around still.
John, congratulations! Glad to see Red Bull as a new sponsor! Gonna go get me some. =)
(…you know I love you.)
Does ANYONE see what’s going on here?
Let me spell it out if you don’t. The fat cat’s are trying to TAKE YOUR MONEY!
Some of these fat cats even believe that commercials like this will brainwash you into believing that their piss-water products like Red Bull (which will eventually KILL YOU) will make you a cool rock-star outlaw or something more desirable than what you are. And a LOT of you DO believe it!
How pathetic?!
So if you see anyone actually drinking these piss-water products or promoting them like on a blog site or something, you could tell them they are FOOLS! Or you could say nothing at all and continue to have a good little laugh.
OOPS! Did I let the cat out of the bag?
neh, a trials bike ridden by a somewhat skilled trials rider. Nothing to get excited about.

The worst part is that it works. One of my nephews here drinks it because of the “cool” factor, regardless of what I tell him. But then again, he “only” buys brand name shoes and clothing. At least he works to earn the money to pay for what he wants though so that’s a good thing 🙂
This is fake. I am a classic car owner and if this guy or anyone else did that to my car I would shoot him. I am sure the guy with the yellow chevy would do the same. If this was real.
try this in the USA, someone would shoot you for denting his car
The cars he drove over were part of the shoot.
I liked the the video, actually I like most of the red bull adds, doesn’t make want to drink it.
Obvious fake setup video.
Red Bull is poison, it should be a controlled substance.
At least it wasn’t an ad for Rockstar, which is the same poison as RedBull, but manufactured by white-supremacist pricks.
Cool.
I love stuff like this. When I was kid I saw that classic film “On Any Sunday”, which is what inspired me to buy my first dirtbike at 14. My mom threw a fit, and I ended up pushing that bike more miles than I rode since it broke down all the time. That is what you get for $200. But it sure taught me a lot on how to fix and tweak enduros and two stroke motors.
To this day, there is nothing more fun that a good dirt bike and going off road knowing you can leave all those pussies on their Hogs and Ninjas behind.
it haz to be truez cuzses I seen it on the internets
Cars & motorcycles don’t mix well, and the last thing we need is suggestive on-road daredevil stunts. Lost some good friends during my motorcycle racing days (1960’s & 70’s) and always tried to put safety first. May I suggest going to Youtube and searching “jordi tarres” for some fine demonstration of the original sport of Motorcycle Observed Trials. BTW, it should be quite obvious that speed is not the measure of winning. Riders are marked down for putting their feet down or not finishing a section.

I had the pleasure of competing against Malcolm Smith, one of the principal riders in “On Any Sunday”, and was able to beat his sorry ass occasionally. I indeed do admire him none-the-less.
Tom Penton
>>> Tom Penton
SERIOUSLY????
(bowing down) we’re not worthy!!!!! I only knew one person in my dirt bike days who could afford a penton. the rest of us just drooled. Even my buddy with the maico was jealous.
And Malcom Smith is the coolest human on earth. Period.
