No. No. He did what?

Rryann · 12 months

Thats why they call him Special Greg.

Skulder · 12 months

He didn't land on the pedals. Ow.

preparanoid · 12 months

Feet on the pedals or you didn't pull it. Still super bad ass.

How do you even practice a move like that?

Is one of those guys wearing a fez?

haymakers9th · 12 months

I'm sorry, honest question, is this really WTF-worthy? Seems like the content of this subreddit has changed a lot since I joined.

johnt1987 · 12 months

The scenario that I created in my mind involves a few friends going there, and one of them has never seen any tricks done on BMX bikes before. One of the friends somehow gets him to do a back flip without ever having seen it preformed or ever having done anytricks himself on a bike. After he does the back flip the friends at first start to laugh at him because he did it totally wrong. Then the laughter turns to silence as they realize what he just did.

Love the special flip.

VashGabriel · 12 months

That is why Nitro Circus is awesome!

Danger1KAum · 12 months

Biology is so cruel. We, as the human race, should have hoards of these guys flipping about through the sky, but every landing robs us of future generations. Pity.

the_win · 12 months

"and then they asked me to do it again"

DeputySean69 · 12 months

It's called the Special Flip. Special Greg from Nitro Circus is the guy doing it (this is from the show).

kaythxbai · 12 months

Landed on feet. Fucking noob.

[deleted] · 12 months

Is it just me, or is it commonplace to steal awesome gifs from the gifs subreddit and get karma for posting it in a more popular subreddit such as WTF, pics, funny, etc.?

joebmxkid08 · 12 months

And...sits on ballsack!

siebharinn · 12 months

My brain asploded. Not as bad as his nut sack did though. Pedals are there for a reason.

vectormessiah · 12 months

Fuck math.

Still a master of physics.

I was expecting a fall, as with 99% of all of the videos/gifs on the interwebs.

AMA request - This fuckin' guy.

Yboc · 12 months

I remember the shit he did in the early Nitro Circus movie days with a bike on a trampoline. And the stuff he could do on a motorcycle into a foam pit. If only he could transfer it to dirt. Fucking gnarly.

The show was good, but boy, the movies were the best. Probably the best DVDs I own.

[deleted] · 12 months

Get the fuck out of here.

MrDanger · 12 months

That's gotta be rough on the ol' taint.

tangoshukudai · 12 months

He didn't flip the bike, he flipped himself.

CherryCandy · 12 months

Skills

mishagale · 12 months

I don't know anything about this kind of thing, can someone explain to me what's so impressive? I've seen lots of videos of people doing tricks on BMX bikes or skateboards which looked as hard as this.

daschande · 12 months

Nailed it.

shredthegnar_NL · 12 months

what he is landing on is like a step between a foam pit and an actual landing, it's super cushioned so that if you bail its not going to hurt as much, pretty awesome stuff!

geniusbean · 12 months

Ya, pull that off at the xgames over a 300ft box and win a prize.

Shrailan · 12 months

I cringe every time he lands... Imagine if his balls were in the wrong position

FmMan3 · 12 months

That was insanely awesome. I have mucho respeto for this man.

FmMan3 · 12 months

I think it's a safe bet to assume he was wearing several pairs of underwear.

topcutter · 12 months

This should be posted in r/that'seffingawesome.

Jesus fucking christ I'm getting tired of all of these motherfucking reposts in this motherfucking subreddit.

notfeelingthat · 12 months

That's sex on a bike

blakegt · 12 months

I hate to be a debbie downer but the ramp he's doing that on is what's called a resi-ramp. It's a 1/8 sheet of masonite over a foam pad. He could have tried that 20 times, missed every single time, and gotten up unhurt to try again until he got that one clip.

FrostByt · 12 months

The nut crusher. Ouch!

[deleted] · 12 months

No fucking way...

Seeing is no longer believing.

Vee_Vee · 12 months

We always joked that BMX kids were devil worshippers because 1) they're fucking crazy, 2) and they can pull off this shit without dying.

MrFluke · 12 months

Would be far more impressive if he didn't land on his feet first, still sweet though.

Maverick701 · 12 months

I watched this and (out loud) said, "you gotta be fucking kidding me!" Way awesome

DizzyedUpGirl · 12 months

Well, he seems to have a good understanding of physics.

orairwolf · 12 months

God I miss that show

kentrel · 12 months

What always amazes me about these stunts, is how do they practice it in the first place

Philipp · 12 months

I can do that too.

You basically just hold the camera up, then point to where the bike is, but a bit further ahead so you don't miss anything.

Lachtan · 12 months

Yes, we've seen that at least 5 times and I'm not even redditor for so long.

Trick is called special flip and the *.gif itself it at least 8 years old.

conrick · 12 months

No.No He "almost" did what?

banked1 · 12 months

I've watched it 10x and i still cant figure out what he's doing

shananigans247 · 12 months

Doubt it.

cosworth99 · 12 months

BM FUCKIN' X.

dafones · 12 months

Gifs suck so hard.

gadafgadaf · 12 months

he just mashed his nuts sticking that landing.

rowanm · 12 months

Yeah, but I want to see the gif of the first time he did it.

squakmix · 12 months

Yes. Yes. He broke is testicals

KICKERMAN360 · 12 months

It's the special flip, performed by Special Greg Powell of the Nitro Circus, who is also a cousin of Travis Pastrana's. He has actually landed on the pedals on larger jumps. He first attempted the trick in 2003, for TP to learn on a dirt bike. I think this was shot in 2009 or 2010. So 6 years to stick the trick is pretty impressive. This is also the first body variel on a BMX bike I think. Never done before.
