Anyone else see this after seeing the guy who tried to come first after starting 1000th?

Let's take a moment and just appreciate that he was cleaning his camera every time he was able to

0:17 the race gets started 0:35 he takes 1st place 4:41 he takes 2nd place 19:48 he takes 1st place 21:21 he takes 2nd place - hot pursuit begins 25:05 forest begins (still one after the other) 31:30 he takes 1st place 32:45 partly asphalt begins(still leading) 33:38 he takes 2nd place 39:27 end of the race (on 2nd place) 39:58 fairplay!

i forgot what i wrote

“Brand new bike, only riden once”

Thanks for cleaning up the lens for us.

Take a minute to appreciate the engineering that went into every part of that bike that was able to fall down a mountain with style and still work like new. That's impressive.

They should add a speedometer so we can see what speed they are doing

Me before watching the video: I'll just watch a few minutes to get the idea. Me 40 minutes later: Damn, that was crazy

I rode this path once. ⌵ Took me 14 hours. ⌵ Broke an ankle. ⌵ Got three flat tires. ⌵ Made 6 wrong turns. ⌵ Got lost. ⌵ Had to be airlifted out. ⌵ 10/10. Would recommend.

17:39 The "My leg!" Spongebob guy

Let's just appreciate how insanely smoothly he went over the snowy portion.

these dudes went through like 5 different biomes Edit: darn, I never expected this silly minecraft reference to blow up

Most exhilarating experience I've ever had while sitting on my couch!

Thanks to you. I am young again. I am the little eye that rides on top of your helmet, grateful to be there.

I’m a few years behind this but that was absolutely incredible. Wow, you guys are true athletes.

0:37 there is always that dude

0:17 the race gets started 0:35 he takes 1st place 4:41 he takes 2nd place 19:48 he takes 1st place 21:21 he takes 2nd place - hot pursuit begins 25:05 forest begins (still one after the other) 31:30 he takes 1st place 32:45 partly asphalt begins(still leading) 33:38 he takes 2nd place 39:27 end of the race (on 2nd place) 39:58 fairplay! congratulations and respect! I would have broken all my bones in the first 10 meters. thanks for this good video.

I'm a long time watcher of Le Tour de France. The guy on the loudspeaker at the very end has got to be the same guy that does the same thing at the finish of every single Tour stage since going back at least a decade. Also this is impressive. As much as I love the classic road races it takes balls do go down a mountain like this.

I love that this has no music. I like hearing the natural sounds.

You know your race is long when it has biomes.

0:36 me in every racing game

J'adore le moment ou il l'a rattrapé puis encouragé ... (31:30) Trop forts, immenses respects :)

I really appreciate that you care about your camera quality as much as your biking skills. Fantastic run Killian. You inspire me.

Guy in red could be the nicest, most stand up person ever, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t developed a deep hatred for him after watching this. I mean, he’s the antagonist to our story.

The thing that amazes me is the fact that he did not get lost.

What a SHOW!! Better tha F1 and MotoGP onboard camera. Wonderful landscapes and crazy skills. Congrats

What a guy, cleans the lens even when it isn't dirty. This man is a real legend

19:40 Thumbs up for the guy that gives moral support to surpass the first biker and continues all the way to the top.

My dad telling me how he used to go to school in his childhood:

Dude this would be a day trip for me. This man finishes in 40 freaking minutes. He mad

Amazing film to watch. So much courage and skill and stamina needed to ride down the mountain at that speed. I have nothing but admiration for the riders. Well done Kilian on your second place.

He was racing his time trial ghost

I thought I was going to watch 5 minutes of this race, I ended up watching the whole thing...

I don’t usually watch stuff like this because I find it boring. But this was very captivating! Thank you!

Nothing but pure sportsmanship at the end. Word

0:37 RIP my dude on the left he ain’t deserve that collision

0:37 Forza every 1st corner

I did this in 2007 and that music at the start still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

19:45 i need to get myself one of these hype-men for my daily chores...

actually much more joyfull to watch with one guy ahead for orientation than first place footage

Kilian Bron put up a brave fight, all the way to the finish, but ultimately couldn't overcome the proverbial "grease lighting" downhill moves of the winner (hereby identified as "Mortal Enemy"). Interesting time points: @0:36: Kilian Bron narrowly misses a side-swipe and flies to 1st place… @4:42: But he loses it to a downhill attack, and falls to 2nd place! @6:17: His Mortal Enemy is so fast downhill, he's barely visible now… @7:31: Yup, he slips out of visual range… @10:01: Visual contact reestablished! Kilian Bron is about 23 seconds behind. @14:34: A large number of spectators…must be risky crash zone. @19:02: Wow, Kilian Bron bridged that gap very quickly… @19:50: …and overtakes Mortal Enemy on the climb to take 1st place! @21:22: Oh no! Mortal Enemy overtakes Kilian Bron with slick passing move! @22:22: Mortal Enemy takes unorthodox line…but didn't really gain time. @23:31: More unorthodox lines. This is becoming Mortal Enemy's signature move. (Also, Kilian Bron tries same move) @23:47: I can't believe the helmet cam fits through! @30:47: C'mon Kilian Bron! You can do it! @31:35: Yes! Uphills are Kilian Bron's allies. @33:40: Mortal Enemy times his attack perfectly, and slingshots into his preferred downhill terrain in 1st place! @40:02: Mortal Enemy went so deep, he had to lie down. Good sportsmanship from Kilian Bron!

Sweet run my guy. Much respect for the guys and gals that actually plan/make the trail. Well done.

I love the friendly competition between him and the guy in red. Those were some awesome clean passes. No bumps or cutoffs. Awesome 👍

22:08 That carving is INSANE

I laughed so hard at the guy who tried to snatch first place but ended up colliding with the guy in front of you, in the beginning 😂

absolutely everything is so impressive on this video. the balls of rider, the bike that can survive such thing, the brutal track, so epic

Felt like i was in the front seat of roller coaster..mad respect for these riders.

u rode perfectly just unlucky the other guy had no brakes

The ending is perfect, “Step aside people I’ve got a find my man to congratulate the guy I couldn’t catch.”

Loved it from start to finish. Epic duel - with the advantage swinging from one rider to the other depending on the gradient. You will be proud of yourself when you’re in the ol’ rocking chair showing this to your grandkids - well done for doing what most mortals simply can’t, or won’t even try...

I bought a mountain bike after watching this so many times. I love mountain biking. It's a great hobby and reminds me of my childhood.

I love this guy at 19:42. Great enthusiasm! Whomever he is, he's on your side. We all need someone like this in our life.

Let’s all be honest here. None of us searched for this video but it ended up on our recommendation page so here we are watching 40 minutes of someone riding a bike down a hill lol.

Two guys have good technics and sportmanship rival. Thank You for this video.

I got recommended one of these videos and now more keep popping up. I’m not complaining these videos are strangely entertaining to watch.

I'm sitting here in Florida with my wife and cats under " Stay-at-home" COVID-19 Quarantine and we put this great video up on the big screen TV and all 4 of us were watching it. I think the cats enjoyed it just as much as I did. When the townspeople rang the bells, the cats looked around in surprise like, " What was that !!!...Who rang that bell ??"

I can't believe I just watched 40 minutes of a bike race, quite relaxing video, like a tour through the mountains. i might have discovered something I didn't know I liked.

WOW what a great race, the longest and the best footage Ive seen, having watched about six of these races. What a faultless ride, it was great to have the guy in red out front and just see how he handled the track through hair pin bends and the trees. The scariest point for me was when he came onto the first section of bitchumen flying down the road squeezed in by the barriers. In the future I can see this becoming an Olympic sport with a few uphill sections and more opportunities for overtaking. It was great to watch with a few Calvin Harris tracks.

I am amazed at these guys. I'd fall down trying to walk down that trail.

Appreciate the sportsmanship when you immediately went over to congratulate the winner, good stuff

That epic moment around 4:13 where you realize that yes, you are definitely not alone any more ... !

"Fighting For First Place" in the title of this video reveals at the outset that Kilian did not win. But he does an amazing job just to stay in the fight with Jose Borges. Borges won this race by giving an outstanding performance. Kilian was superb as usual, and his start in the snow and ice was perfection. But Jose soon flew past Kilian shortly after they got to the rocks and disappeared from sight. Kilian relentlessly hunted him down and eventually got past him. Jose hung on and got by once more, and they went back and forth a couple times before Jose left Kilian behind near the end. Borges was amazing on the descents, in the switchbacks, and he even passed Kilian once on a short climb. The two men put on an amazing show that is extremely exciting even though you know the result. Jose finished in 39 minutes and 3 seconds, which was eight seconds ahead of Kilian. Kilian was twenty-two seconds ahead of the third-place finisher, and one minute and two seconds ahead of the man who took fourth. Borges and Bron were in their own class.

Best Mega race for 1st there ever was. I'd say the winner knew the course a bit better - he knew where to straight line and cut in tight - you had the fitness in catching him, but his plan I'm sure you know now, was to let you go up so he could rest and then squeeze you off before the single track. Brilliant racing - mad skills.

Me: I’m not going to watching 40 minutes of this. Also me after 40 minutes: omg that’s was a hell of a ride

You won the Mountain of Hell and came in 2nd place in Megavalanche. Congratulations man. Not many people can achieve what you have achieved so far

It is cool to watch Killian because he is super fast and makes moves pretty insane or divine at times.

I loved the guy in red went ripping by and just turned into a ..... dot.

My man's experienced four seasons in one day

You're the better climber on the uphill but the other guy loses less speed during technical areas. Was intense!

The timing when you clean the camera and i get an ad amazing ahah

Beautiful race! 40 minutes of pure accomplishment. No offense I know it says fighting for first but the guy who won was on another level.

I was on the edge of my seat for 40 mins! Man, that was intense. I cant even imagine the level of conditioning needed for this. Super human.

How my grandparents got to school.

Honestly, I rode my bike a minimum of 25.000 kilometres over a couple of continents, but never had such a track! Congrats. Really! That is so great!

Objective This guy: Get first place Everyone else: Survive

It is amazing they can stay on their bikes at that speed, on that terrain and for that long... 👏👏👍

That is one of the greatest 40 minutes of my KZfaq life.

Je te tire mon chapeau , départ parfait , trajectoires parfaites , run parfait quoi 👍💪

Why is this the most amazing thing I’ve watched !? I don’t get how it’s possible, my anxiety is through the roof, the amount of times I’ve clenched my toes and cringed,, my brain can’t figure out how it’s done so flawlessly, yet it’s the best thing I’ve watched hahaha ,,,,These guys a legends!!!!

22:20 Guy in first is a madlad

The graphics are cool but the physics seem too arcadish.

Respect! Great pace, power on the ups and strong lungs. My man!

Amazing athletes. What a fantastic battle! 2nd time watching. Just as good as the 1st.

Just think, one mistake and he’s one with the trees.

Me: “oh my god watch out for the sto- Oh he carried on riding straight over them”

Bravo champion!! Quel talent dans les descentes boisées!

what made me smile was when he was overtaking the man said hi or how you doing.. Great sportsmanship... Nice to see..

Mad props to the guy around 19:45 hustling the biker back into first place.

When your fast travel is still locked.

Это запредельное мастерство и выносливость. Браво!

I’ve never done legit mountain biking but gollee if this isn’t one of the most beautiful sports I’ve ever seen. Starting training now. Sign me up for this 2021!

What a madman...

these 40 mins are more interesting than my whole life T_T

je suis choqué,mais c est magnifique a voir!!👍👍

Very entertaining. Thank you for putting on the camera. At the end I thought every time he was wiping the camera "forget the camera, get this guy in the front"! What a sport!

23:47, I may have ducked while watching this.

The true Legends are those, who clean theire Go Pro

Exhilarating ! And yes, I was at the point of yelling "leave the damn camera and race !" - Great video.

Bravo et merci pour cette vidéo. Ne faisant pas de VTT de descente, je ne sais pas si la réalité est aussi impressionnante que les images de la vidéo, mais en regardant je me suis retrouvé plusieurs fois dans le décors ! hyper fort, bravo !!
