I know that Mtbr is everyone’s favorite mountain biking website. But there’s this other site called YouTube that is pretty popular, too. If you’re like us, you enjoy spending some time watching cool mountain biking videos as much as the next guy. But the problem is…there are TONS of videos! Right now, there are currently 81,000+ videos related to “mountain bike” on YouTube.
In an effort to spare you from wasting time watching poorly shot videos that some joe shot of his non-riding brother/sister/cousin going OTB in their driveway, we have compiled this list of Top Ten YouTube Mountain Bike Videos.

“Look at the penalty for failure, dude….” Famous last words. Best trail riding video by a couple of ordinary guys. Could happen to any of us, right?

You didn’t include my favorite one!
Just your usual North Shore ride, usually it’s the tree that leaps out at the rider, but in this case…a nice save.

Up and coming video producer! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayuGWGf48mU
The Japanese one – there is a much better copy where they interview him several months later (I say that because he has scars and the wounds have healed). Not that I suggest anyone try this again, but since it broke at the headset I have to think that a newer downhill bike with 1.5 might do better? But the whole thing is lame because mtn bikes are built for a certain speed range and he is outside it. So something is going to fail, part or person.
