[Closed] Foreign guy can't ride up a hill video. MTB Rage.

Thats a bit much...I think he needs to take up road cycling with that attitude...

best rage vid ever

awesome, at least he keeps trying

"Oh great. Chain is off too!!!!! Its a ****ing cockday" PMSL 😆

I dunno how the bloke holds the camera still, I'd be PML!

Hmm. I'm not sure that falls within the spectrum of normal behaviour.

and that is the definition of a "mantrum".

I don't get that angry, apart from that time I got onto Rushup Edge into a head wind and kept riding into the ruts and clashing pedals, oh if I could have lobbed the bike into a bottomless bog I would have done.

This is brilliant!

Thank you for putting this up

Made me chuckle.

Blimey - that dude's got issues...

What's wrong with walking up it anyway...? 🙂

Rich

P.S. 'Mantrum' - love it!

Brilliant, what passion.

Amazing. The best bit is not running for a month after doing a 50 minute 10k!

Hmm. I'm not sure that falls within the spectrum of normal behaviour.

Definitely needs some therapy.

What an arsehole.

😆 Time to ease up on the 'roids

He probably should get a 29er...

is he just a bit crap?
doesn't look that hard a climb.
he should just stick to throwing his bike around the trails, he's pretty good at that.

Made my evening - funny as! 🙂

is he just a bit crap?

He must be, surely if your that angry you could climb anything! Still funny tho.

That really needs a translation!

He probably should get a 29er...

He's already on one...

I think he needs a hug! 😯

Am I the only person who thinks it was all done for the camera?

Also looks like this to me. I think these guys were just playing about.

fake

Untrue

Id love to go riding with him, I'd find the techyist/steepist bits and wait at the top till he self combusts with rage.

Anyone know what lingo the johnny foreigner is shouting?

Happy Monday morning! 😀

It's Swedish. Been floating around for a few weeks now and, by all accounts, not fake.

At 14 seconds he does a wiggins. I've watched a bit more, he does a wiggins more than once.

Fake or no, I think we've all been there a little bit in our heads...few weeks back, fifth puncture in an hour cos I'd not spotted the tyre tear, no tubes or patches left, let my mates keep riding as I walked, waited until alone, then let out a colossal mantrum swear and smashed a big rock into seveal smaller rocks. Not proud, but there it is..;-)

Now we all know, if that was a lady, she'd have the brains and good sense to just walk up. Being a bloke, he had to try and try and try and..... There's a lesson there Gentlemen.....

Anyone know what lingo the johnny foreigner is shouting?

From a small town are you buddy? got get to travel much eh?

I can relate to this so much but when going down, not up. It's frustrating if you can't do something and get mind block on it. This guy has gone a bit overboard with it though, but it's hilarious and well worth it for the funnies it gave.

Rather worryingly it reminds me of former myself a little... like the day I decided to kick the s**t out of my rear Mavic Askium, because the brakes wouldn't stop rubbing 😆

I'm more mellower now 8)

Blackburn Bikers used to have a member named Shaun who used to do that - quite often he wouldn't get more than a couple of miles from the car park before throwing the bike in a tantrum and going home.

Wow. That guy needs to do less steroids or something.

Call me terribly British, but I don't think I've ever been that angry about [i]anything[/i] - much less something that I choose to do for my own enjoyment.

I think "what a tadger" is the correct term here.

Can we all have a whip round to enter him as a solo at mayhem 🙂

There is no situation or issue that would ever cause me to throw my bike like that, what an idiot. He could easily rip the mech off on a branch or ding the wheel or frame and then he'd be cursing even more, dick!

I lasted all of 2 mins of swearing shouty man, did he ever make it to the top?

No.

I can actually idenfity with him quite stronly, but I'm far too self-aware to get that bad, definitely not when I'm with anyone and DEFINITELY not when I'm being filmed.

I know how he feels though.. when your life feels like shit and it buggers up the stuff you should be enjoying.

I am usually like this by 10.30 am every day at work.

Never mind the shouty bloke, how long does it take the cameraman to get his breath back?

Puff, pant, puff, pant, puff, pant...

I'm not a qualified gynecologist but it looks like he may have sand in his vagina.

funny clip,

I think we've all been there a little bit in our heads

At the risk of spoiling the joke, irrational aggressive behaviour = low blood sugar? I once threw a $5K Litespeed into a gully and walked out of the woods, seemed like a totally rational thing to do at the time. Half an hour later, after eating, it seemed bloody stupid. And yes I retrieved it!

Jekkyl, not sure he's thinking rationally?

Molgrips, echoes my other thoughts, that he's gone out on the bike to try unwind from various other stresses and pressures and its backfired.

Still funny to watch though!

Riding never gets me like that but there are a few boulder problems I'd have gladly taken a sledge hammer to after working them for hours.

poor chap. It's not clear that the first attempt on the video is his first attempt on the hill so maybe he felt defeated by the time we see him. Still, a bit of an overreaction. Chucking your bike around can sometimes end up in a bent mech hanger. Even more annoying than being defeated by a beautiful-looking woodland track.

I once threw my bike in utter frustration on a night ride that was beyond my capabilities: steep, boggy, rutted, rocks hidden in the grass, getting left behind in the dark. Theore frustrated I became, the more my skills deteriorated, and to add insult to injury, I was covered in midge bites. After about the 4th time of falling off, I burst into tears and flung my bike into the heather!
