Polish BMX and MTB Freestyle Racer Dawid Godziek Performs on a Moving Train
At the end, he did the thing Jamie Hyneman wasn't allowed to do
I didn't notice his motion relative to the background the first time and rewatching it with this in mind makes the video even cooler.
In Poland they only get BMX once per year if good harvest.
Introduction to physics professors everywhere are salivating.
I wonder how much that cost to set up
The Prada cars probably cost a fortune, they could have saved money by using a cheaper brand.

GOOD point
(Been years. Love me some Ken M.)
Wife makes Prada with salt and pepper for extra flavor.
Seldom has the British term "madlad" been more appropriate in both the colloquial and literal sense 😆😮
That was dope.
I know I'm a moron but isn't this just purely visual? Like wouldn't this be the same as doing it on the ground? Still looks really cool regardless but as far as degree of difficulty isn't this just pretty much as hard as doing it anywhere else? I know this is extraordinarily difficult stuff anyways and it's still impressive, I just don't really get the point of the train other than just kinda looking neat cause of the frame of reference.
There's couple extra factors
Wind - he's sometimes moving even backwards on relation to the earth. That means you'll feel the air resistance completely messing with your brain
The platforms - it's extremely narrow, just 2m wide or something. He has to land the tricks very accurately to not get thrown off the train
The fucking train - there's a non-zero chance in this to get driven over by a train
It's basically the same as doing it on the ground, except here you get hit by a train if you mess up.
I'd say a bit more difficult, dude is managing his exact speed to stay in frame.
I think it would be a bit disorienting for the rider.
Yeah and what happens if he doesn't land a trick?
Off the top of my head, since he's not moving, his momentum is very different than doing the tricks on the ground. He probably had to get a feel for the difference (notably the difference in air resistance, again, since he's not moving forward).
My guess is the relative distance traveled is greater than usual for some of these things (train moves at a steady speed while he's in the air, while an equivalent ground jump he'd have a velocity that would be decelerating).
wouldn't it be the same as wind?
Yep, Redbull hire and film a lot of these stunt for commercial. Also a big sponsor for extreme sport.
It's a trip how he just stops dead when he jumps off the train, since his forward and backwards motion cancel each other out.
I don't think this is even the craziest stuff he's done. Both brothers are crazy.
It’s like watching a level of Motocross Maniacs
Red bull is an evil company. Fuck their PR stunts.
At least 20 athletes sponsored by Red Bull or taking part in Red Bull events have died in training; while participating in their sport; or in circumstances related to their sport. The youngest was Toriano Wilson, a 14-year-old boy who was hit by another rider during a Red Bull motorcycle event in 2008.

Servus TV is a TV station based in Wals-Siezenheim in the Austrian state of Salzburg and owned by Red Bull Media House GmbH, a subsidiary of Red Bull GmbH ... It is politically aligned with the far right.
Wait. You mean a cheap, hype-driven stimulant product with unregulated "proprietary" and/or intentionally obtuse compounds claiming to grant superpowers, et al, and wildly marketed as a powerful refreshment only the most heroic mortals could be capable of enjoying casually... is tied to white supremacism?

Extreme sports do kill people, I guess that's part of the appeal for people who are into that kind of thing.
That was quite the John Deere commercial.
That's a Fendt. Source: Farming Simulator enjoyer
Hill Climb Racing in real life, lol
Beautiful!

So it's for sure a great achievement to master the timings etc. but aren't the jumps rather easier than harder compared to a non-moving track? I mean, you have to jump 'only' upwards and don't have to use any of your momentum on distance. Or do I oversee something?
If you jump high enough you'll end up on mars cuz the earth is moving hella fast. And so does the whole solar system. The secret to space travel is just jumping high enough at the right moment.
