Archive footage shows daredevil rider tackling obstacles including actual fire

Never mind the action from the Red Bull Rampage, or the latest the video from Danny Macaskill, this daredevil from Gloucester was well ahead of the extreme sports curve.

Tackling such obstacles as stacked metal cans and a kerb sized ramp, these shenanigans were very popular with the locals looking on.

That's real fire he's riding through.

Misheard commentary is very funny

This hilarious video dubs over the commentators and competitors at the Red Bull Rampage, to hilarious effect.

"The tyrannosaurus rex, it would save the world." "Could I have some of that apple pie?!" "Toy Story 2 is not just a movie about toys."

The lead cyclist signalled to tell the following riders of the imminent danger, and as shown towards the end of the video, the message was effective and the recipient was very appreciative.

With substandard infrastructure (if there's any at all) the unfortunate norm, we cyclists should be extra-aware of how we can keep each other safe on the roads.
