EXTREME PENNY FARTHING BIKE VS POWERFUL PARAMOTOR!
Спорт
Extreme penny farthing bike vs Powerful paramotor! I go as fast as possible on the penny farthing retro MTB using a 2 stroke engine paramotor strapped to my back and things got scary, would you try this craziness?
I had the bright idea to put the paramotor engine on my back and go as fast as possible on my penny farthing and what a ridiculous idea it was but also the best fun ever too! After a small modification to the bike by taking off the pedals and fitting cranks it was time to fly by on this retro MTB freeride machine but would the bike last? With the added weight to the frame I was really worried the bike might snap and end me....
Is this the craziest bike challenge yet?
I hope you enjoy the video!

He's dead?
Extreme penny farthing, who knew it was the dream? We do now thanks to Sam and Lewi LOL Keep up the great work you two!
I love how Sam says we just need to make this a little safer but still totally dangerous. You just know he's about to have fun. Lewi is probably trying not to laugh behind the camera but I bet he's having just as much fun as Sam is. Penny Farthings might make a comeback thanks to Sam.
This video answers the question, “What would happen if you never grew up” but also continued developing top-level skills and had adult money. I love it. Sam, you are a legend sir.
I love these Sam. But I can not stress enough how incredibly dangerous it is to ground start those. Just don’t. Imagine if the throttle you just mentioned stuck open while in the ground. You’re gonna lose limbs. Just toss it on your back and start it mate. There’s a couple really important rules to paramotors and that one is nearly #1 Just want you to be able to keep making vids man. ❤❤ love ya. Cheers!

Theres also the chance that if he fell off and shattered the prop that bits of it could hit members of the public. And also during a crash he could easily lose a hand. I'm all for fun and games but c'mon man, do it in a safe and controlled environment.

If it's on your back and the throttle is stuck open does it just pin you on the ground and is there a kill switch you can reach?

@Dylan - The red button on the throttle is the "kill switch." He's overdramatising but, it can be a very dangerous situation especially if you aren't used to the power, thrust, and weight being on your back. "Turtling" can be a problem, also. When airborne under a wing (parachute-like unit) you don't feel the weight as you are basically suspended in the frame while the wing carries the weight of the paramotor.
''Is it a bird, is it a plane'' 😂 Man you always find a way to crack me up and that's hard nowadays, cheers Sam!
Before this video even starts I feel like Sam is just trying to get hurt but in a way that seems like it was made up.... How do you explain propeller injuries while riding a pennyfarthing¿? 😂 Edit: 5:50 - OMG, this POV is the first time I've seen actual fear on Sam's face and I can't stop laughing... 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the laughs and smiles, Pilgrim. Didn't know I needed this today.
From an efficiency point of view, the Penny Farthing bicycle is perfect match for a paramotor. If you can weld some bracing to the frame, it will be able to withstand the stresses a bit better and upgrade the brake to a disc. Super-dangerous but this was the best video ever.
Sam, you're insane. Thanks for the fun content

Omg! This combo is pure death! Imagine getting your foot tangled into the spokes and going OTB before your head gets chopped by that prop! Crazy
Man that was hilarious! Penny Farthing, paramotor, no brakes, little control.... What could possibly go wrong?! Imagine going over the bars with that thing strapped to your back! hahahaha.
I love all of the people that just keep walking like they see something like this every day. Also takes the time to put on foot pegs, totally ignores the lack of brakes.

Stellar as always. Never thought that i would see a paramotor used while on a Penny Farthing. Amazing
I'm so glad you brought this bike out again 😂 the first video was hilarious
Today is indeed, going to be epic! Glad we get to see Sam risk his life so none of us have too! Love these videos!
I've ridden in PPC on a trike setup and I'd compare the experience like that of a mx dirt bike as far as the acceleration and speed those props can give. Like he's not exaggerating you can flat haul azz with those. 🤘Sam you are my spirit animal man

I’d love to see you do a collaboration with Colin Furze. You two are both as mad as each other and I can just imagine the cool project he could build for you 💥
That paramotor looks like it took a good bash at one point! I especially like how no effort to make the brakes even semi-functional was made since the last video 😂
3:28 LOL ! HA HA HA HA ! This is so silly ! LOL ! AWESOME ! 🤣 Keep going, very entertaining. Imagine the looks of bystanders, LOL !
Always entertaining. How about testing the uphill capabilities of the paramotor? Would be epic.

A prop like that doesn’t provide much at slow speed to push up a hill. It’s more for speed. That’s why prop powered cars didn’t work well. They’d get good speed, but also get stuck on hills.
Truly ridiculous but very well executed! Big up Pilgs
Crazy stuff mate. Imagine launching on that contraption. Be careful with 2stroke motor as they always go fastest when running out of fuel and sometimes rev so hard without input of throttle. Happened to few of us on our motocross bikes. Awesome work mate Avagud1
This is my favorite series. Penny farthing deserves its own KZread channel. Modify and keep riding brother
Nice one Sam! To Redbull rampage or some slopestyle event...? To the skyyyyyy 🤘🤙
Yes been waiting all my life to hear the words let's take this penny farthing to the next level
Where else can you get this level of quality entertainment 😂😂 Sam is the best. I'm cracking up lol
Dude, you make the BEST videos. Always a good day when this channel has a new upload. Keep up the entertaining antics!
You are just a great human being such great love for life this world needs more Sam 😂 thanks.
It’s when Sam says it’s too much….. You really start to worry!!'! 😂😂 You just know something else is around the corner.
First time (surprisingly) that I was actually terrified for you mate! Very very funny though, since you didn't get moled into the field 😂

This is what KZread is for, just awesome 😂 the look on your face mate is golden
Lol Sam is just loving life out there. And trying to end all in one go!
The exitement and fear are so genuine in this video. Epic!
Sam you make me happy. I can’t be mad at problems in my life with you around 😂
literally keeps getting better and better each time!!!

Love it!!! Build your own penny farthing, Sam!!

The reason why I like Sam is coz he shows everyone how to have fun on bikes.
I can't imagine how many years the Rozzers would lock you up for if they had caught you using an un-shrouded paramotor on your back, on a penny farthing (with no brakes) in a public field with children and grannies about 😆 this vid is insane. I love it.

Take that to the skatepark... THAT WOULD BE GNARLY..U CAN DO IT SAM 🙏
You are insane Sam! :D I love your craziness!
Absolutely mint mate!.😂😂😂 got me crying with laughter 😂🤙
What's next? Extreme farthing vs Paramotor vs MTB hopper 😂. Love it sheer madness P.S. you might need wings for that one: not sure that would go down too well with one of your sponsors 😜
What a sick idea bro!! 😂😂😂! How cool!! 😂😂😂🎉
So hilarious to see! Genius Sam!
You're a Penny farthing pilot. Sam, you are insane and I support it!
Yess sam love these videos😂
Absolutely amazing, quite like to see you use the paraprop for paragliding, or mount it to big board with 4 wheels and make a land based air boat/car
That was really fun to watch
Banger! 10/10
So crazy man. I love it.
Ridiculous but brilliant,classic Pilgrim 🤙🏼
hi sam, been watching your vids recently and havnt seen many stairsets of doom, I live in Hampshire and when out on a ride near Winchester I went down a stairset of 333 continuous steps with 45 m of elevation down st Catherines hill. Its So Sick. there are tonnes of other natural features and about 3 minutes away are some massive dirt jumps that were famous in the early 2000s. there are cool vids of it on YT.
Your best vid yet! 😂 penny farthing drift bike please!
My face hurts from laughing and smiling. Today was definitely epic!!
LMAO!! Let's clean some leaves! Sam is the best!
Love the content again 👌 never fail to make banging videos
The thumbnail alone made me piss myself laughing 😂
My man. Absolute stuff of legends.
