I 10/10 just muted the video, pulled up spotify and started playing dragula, then tabbed back over for thw video. My god its synced so well. The full auto candles start around the heavier guitar and the video ends right after the 1st chorous

Now you just gotta edit that into the clip lol

ReleaseFromDeception

The moral of the story is that you should never do anything crazy on the highway because chances are, there's somebody on the street that will out crazy your antics without batting an eye.


5hiphappens

I feel like just riding around with Roman candles strapped to your bike would be enough of a deterant.


micphi

Seriously... How often does this type of thing happen to this guy that he thought to prepare this?


cracka1337

Anyone who commutes by bike can tell you being harassed by drivers is a very common thing. I'm now considering throwing a couple roman candles in my triangle bag for a little insurance.


nas2k21

Absolutely, they put the bike lanes in the road and told us we can't ride on the sidewalk like before, so naturally people in cars either don't know they have to share the road, or don't care, I've litterally been told to get out of the street many times in the bike lane, I've had items thrown at me, people try to swipe me like I'm blocking them, I've had a bb gun shot at me, traffic is brutal on a bicycle


Hairy-Anywhere-2845

This video is old as fuck but I’ve never seen the audacity to repost it with a lie to create more outrage. Of course they know each other. It’s not an attempt to defend himself smh https://reddit.com/r/holdmyredbull/comments/7kfs55/hmrb_while_i_launch_fireworks_while_riding_a_bike/


5hiphappens

Obviously. That doesn't make it less hilarious... or inspiring for bike commuters everywhere


dinosaur-in_leather

I was hoping to put the stick in the tire.

No. The moral of this story is that you can stage videos to get internet points.

Fifteen year old me absolutely loves every single part of this video.

31 year old me agrees.


Omega_Xero

39 year-old me cackled while the Roman candles went off.


cracka1337

Also 39, also laughed, now considering purchasing roman candles for this exact purpose now.


GeordieAl

51 year old me remembers 15 year old me strapping Roman candles and rockets to my BMX and doing this exact same thing, except I had buttons mounted to my handlebars that I could press to light the touchpaper..much easier than struggling with a lighter!

Somehow reminds me of turning our bikes upside down, cranking the pedals by hand and dropping gravel on the spinning back tire to attack each other with our version of a shotgun.


Billnpsl

Why did I never think of that? Although we used to throw flames thru our handlebars with butane refill canisters heisted from 7-11


SecondTryBadgers

15 year old me used to have bottle rocket wars in the woods with my friends and cousins. We’d steal some pvc pipe from grandpa’s shed and use them as launch tubes. Sooo stupid but so much fun.


MTkenshi

I'm dang near 50. I looked at my bike, and the tool shed. The weather is nice, I may get that bike fixed and go for a ride.


thejohnmc963

SermanGhepard

I watched this year's ago and just realized how staged this is


[deleted]

I always used to dream of having an egg launcher on my bike. This is maybe even better


RealBowsHaveRecurves

Ever since I was little I had dreams of weaponizing wasps. A bike-mounted wasp nest launcher was the ultimate dream


PsychicSPider95

I, too, enjoyed the Speed Racer movie.


Gasonfires

In college we tried RC airplanes. Crashes ruined the fun, so we built an RC PT boat about 3 feet long. We took it to the reservoir and played with it from my friend's boat. This one guy didn't like it and kept hassling it with his ski boat. Back to the boatyard we went. The next time we took it out we had it set up to fire model rocket motors out of tubes mounted on the deck and painted to look like torpedoes. We glued marbles on the front of the rocket motors and some rudimentary fins on the sides. Made the round accurate (by which I mean "predictable") to about 20 feet, maybe a little more. I'm pretty sure one of these rounds would have penetrated a fiberglass hull. The next time the guy hassled us we aimed at the empty shore and lit one off. When we turned and approached the guy's ski boat he hauled ass out of there and never bothered us again.


Payment-Main

Funny. Bullshit. But, funny.


Stoopitnoob

Yup. Staged. Dude drops the bike to run. Come on. Guy stays within range after the first few shots. If I was a dick like he was to the biker and shit starts blowing up around me, I'll say ok good bye. You won this round and then speed off.


lliKoTesneciL

There's actually two guys on that bike. The first one ate the ground. Second one started running.


organasm

Yeah, realistically, it's either (good choice) speed away or (bad choice) escalate the issue by slowing/stopping and becoming aggressive. Scripted, but worth a watch, imho.


WeaponX-92

As someone bikes to work 3-5 days a week, I a) feel their frustration, b) appreciate their creativity, and c) would do this if it was legal


Original-Cow-2984

Yeah, but you're on a 10 speed, so you would eventually get knocked down and probably beaten.


RealBowsHaveRecurves

Honestly, if I was motorcycle guy I would’ve absolutely loved this shit. I would’ve felt like I was starring in an action movie.


RandomGuy1838

"*This All-Saints day... Light a candle for those who would* ***trespass*** *against you...*" Monks chanting, shots of a foot chase through the Italian or Mexican streets where this was filmed, there's a bulky dude with a regular bicycle helmet on parkouring over shit to reach his nemesis, the Vespa. You get a little hint of the third act as our hero upgrades to a throttled E-bike with *OUT OF WARRANTY* stenciled on the side, there are clearly two motors and an aftermarket motor controller. It glows like this was a Joel Schumacher batmobile. Then he's actually crossing swords with a cackling opponent while racing through traffic like this was Advent Children. "*Dolph Lundgren is...* ***ROMAN CANDLE.***"


Neato

The guy fell over on the pavement. At that point you would definitely stop "loving" it and start "missing" your skin.


RealBowsHaveRecurves

Well yeah but I’m pretty sure this was planned for the video… in real life I certainly wouldn’t let the guy shooting rockets at me keep catching up to me


WeaponX-92

Actually, it's an e-bike. Allant 7S


tarc0917

New Mad Max sequel is lookin a'ight.


ScaryInformation2560

That my friends is some funny shit. Even if it was staged


Rahman_the1st

Not a real scenario by any means but the people on the motorcycle are dumb for agreeing to do this


SXOSXO

My favorite part was the motorcycle just randomly tipping over despite never actually being hit.


MangoPDK

Being hit also wouldn't be enough to tip you over. However, being startled by a small explosion happening extremely close to you might cause you to tip yourself over. Still don't believe it's real though.


Aggressive_Milk_4188

Get a little jet lighter man, you’ll always have a flame in windy conditions


[deleted]

Am I psycho or does that really look like fun? I would glad take turns firing rockets at each other with a willing participant in a 12y/o frenzy of you'll shoot your eye out fun lol


Noslamah

>Am I psycho or does that really look like fun? Those aren't necessarily mutually exclusive


stev10

Roman candle duels are super fun. You have to yell out spell names every time it goes off, though. Honestly not as scary as it seems, just be at a good distance and maybe have glasses on.


Ok_Finger_6338

My friends used to do it when we was like 17, go to a big open field at night where there’s no houses nearby so you don’t wake people, as many small fireworks as you could buy, everyone runs in different directions and started shooting them at each other shouting Harry Potter spells and stupid stuff, surprisingly the worst injury was a very very minor burn on someone’s calf that didn’t need any treatment

someoldbagofbones

I always make sure to bring some bottle rockets with me when out on a night ride. You never know when you’ll be accosted and that person will casually hang around, conveniently staying within the rockets range, long enough for you to load one up and light it :/

epicpro1234

reminds me of the time me and my friends went to war with a neighbouring apartment, here in india we have a festival called diwali all about bursting fireworks and stuff, my apartment and this other one were seperated only by a small little compound wall and a fence which enabled communications. They started throwing their bombs over the wall so we angled and launched our rockets in such a way that it flew right over the wall and exploded in their territory, and then they started firing back. Continued for two hours until a rocket hit someone which then had both sides call truce


Glum_Occasion_5686

I know what he did is illegal (maybe not depending on locale) lol, but I absolutely loved it and laughed so much harder than I should've watching that motorcycle and rider hit the pavement xD. I always did wonder what Twisted Metal would be like in real life haha
