Oh Jim, yes you definitely helped millions of people mentally. Me included! Picked up the guitar because of you.

Jim is such a class act, what a gentleman, just living the dream.

Anyone else think that Jim could easily be the voice of audio books or something like that? Such a grounded personality without any sense of ego

I'd listen to those books

Motorcycles, cars, guitars and video games... Jim Root is my spirit animal.

His Instagram story is always such a tease. I’m stoked to finally get a peak at some of the rad stuff he has. Jim has been an inspiration for basically my entire life. He is such a humble dude and is genuinely the epitome of the kind of guy I’d love to sit down and drink a few beers with.

Jim has got to be the most down to earth musician out there. What a class act and genuinely cool dude.

True. He even said hi to fan first 😭 i love him

He deserves all the success that he's had and more. No ego, and all heart. A true artist.

Jim was the reason I picked up a guitar. And the reason why I still play 20 years later

jim is the chillest dude on earth

Jim is the fucking man. I love that he said that if his music helps a fan mentally that means more than any of his toys. He just seems like a genuinely good guy and someone that you don’t have to feel bad to call your hero

Cars , guitars….that garage is certainly my dream❤

I had no idea root had harleys. Fucking best episode ever man.

Ive never been a huge fan of slipknot but Jim has tickled my brain with music and bikes. Dude is a straight up cool dude! This is amazing to see!

Such a humble, down to earth, chilled yet hilarious and musical God, Jim is. Wish this video had been 1hr long though, really get into the details of everything but it's still great, Cheers guys!

Jim Root is such a wonderful and humble human being, this is the reason he is loved by so many fans of his music in Slipknot and Stone Sour, great video.

I had no idea we're basically neighbors and he rides too, it'll never happen, but it would be awesome to ride some miles with him.

Jim is a legend, I’d love to have a beer with him. I was at download this year and they killed it!

Мечта настоящего мужика!!! 💪🏻Джим хороший и добрый человек! Slipknot forever! 🤘🏻from Russia

He used to live up in Jacksonville fl. I put the tires on the black roadrunner. Really cool guy. And that roadrunner is badass

Imagine getting to hang out with Jim and jamming or riding bikes. One of the coolest dudes and personal hero of mine. Rock on Jim!

I have met Jim Root 10 years when he was in Stone Sour and I will tell you he is one of the nicest guys I have ever met and natural goofball. Another thing too he is like the uncle you wish you could have lol

Only needed to watch 2 minutes to notice the difference between Jim and his singer. What a trip this guy seems SO down to earth. Those are like EXACTLY the Cars Id buy once i become sucessful. Gorgeous Strats & Bikes as well. I dont feel like he’s bragging about what he has. I feel a humble vibe from Jim in this. Great video

Corey is a shitbag egomaniac. For all of his complaints about MGK--Corey's solo records sound exactly like MGK. Dude loves to hear himself talk and is beyond conceited. Whereas, Jim and Mick just come off as regular dudes. I haven't been a Slipknot fan since s/t was released when I was in 8th grade in 1999 but have always enjoyed Jim's interviews about gear.

Jim; thank you! My first slipknot show was at "southshore" in Okoboji,Iowa. Long before Corey joined the group. So proud to see Iowa boys getting the success they deserve.

I've had the privilege of meeting Jim a couple of times in the store I work at. A cool and approachable Rock Star for sure

I was doing photography for a magazine an I got to meet him. An, he just has a good soul. You can feel it when you meet him.

thats so cool.when was it?

Jim is definitely one of my all time favorite guitar players, and also inspired me as a guitar player. The first time I saw Slipknot I was front row literally right in front of Jim. I recently bought one of his personally owned Fender Jazzmasters from Wild West Guitars. Back when he sold some of his collection to that shop. Incredibly, Jim himself actually wrote back to me on instagram and we had a nice convo about that guitar and cars too. Really hope I get to meet him one day he seems like such an awesome dude. Such a cool video and great to finally see what his garage and some of his collection!

I could listen to this guy for hours, what a great personality

Jim is that kind of "old school and simplicity still the best" type of guy and it's awesome.

Didn’t know he lives in Florida.good for him to get outta Iowa

Slipknot for sure has been the most important outlet for me through my young years and into where I am now as a almost 40 year old man. Kick ass collection, well deserved!

Jim is such a solid guy. Super cool. I dont think id ever be able to leave that garage.

Jim Root looks like a young version of Gandalf the Grey jejejeje (but a metalhead version)... I`m a big fan of his work on Slipknot y i didn`t know that we share the same passion for cars and motorcycles. Thanks to the friends of Prism Supply for share this with the world... Cheers from Chile!! 🍻🍻🍻🍻

THE BEST VIDEO ALL OVER THE INTERNET! I've been a Jim fan since i was 13 and been a motorcycle lover since i was i kid... See both things in the same video just warms my heart ❤

I love how organized his garage and music area. I love how purist he is with the cars.

Riding with James while listening to his music would be one hell of a good day.

Jim is a great guy, very humble and honest. I’d love to meet him one day 😎

this is awesome harleys and metal 🤘

The kind of guy ya can sit down with, have a brew and just talk shop!…smart, humble, and confident.✌🏻

He’s got my top two dream mopars. He also happens to be the most influential person to my musical ability and overall lifestyle. Mad cool guy

Mopars, Motorcycles and Metal! The perfect combo! Great video!!!

Thank you very much for this video! I've wanted to see Jim's garage and studio for a long time! this is very cool and very inspiring!

I. LOVE. EVERYTHING. ABOUT. THIS! Thanks to all involved!

Such a treat of an interview with this legend, excellent work! Jim is so humble and chill, so cool to see.

Best vid from Prism in a while. Thanks, Jim, you rock in a BUNCH of ways.

what a chill guy

Dude I could literally LIVE in this garage!! Beautiful setup!!

This series is awesome! This one is my favourite. Jim’s collection and set up is amazing!.

Every record mr root, has helped me in each chapter of my life. Since 99. Thank you!

Incredible garage like the incredible riffs that write Jim. Master of guitars

Everything looks brand new to the tires, insanely pristine condition and presentation. Whoever takes care of it, insane job!

How awesome!! Enjoying the fruits of his labor while making himself mentally super happy!!!

Preforming on stage and riding bikes is the best therapy.🍻

What an awesome dude. I've been into Slipknot, old cars and bikes since I was a teenager so this is rad.

Glad to see our Jimmyboi living his best life. Collecting and using the shit out of whatever tools he collects.

Thanks for taking the time to show you're fantastic collection. I have an El Diablo myself but really enjoyed you and you're passions! Rock on!!!

jim is so amazing, man i love him and slipknot

Jim Root is a Beast, may he continue to love doing music

Jim has such an infectious laugh. He always seems to downplay his ego at every chance, too. I'd love to sit down and talk shop with him

Slipknot helped me through some tough spots mentally. Your music definitely makes a difference. Loved seeing some of the toys you've acquired!

I really like to watch interviews with Jim, he seems like such a nice bloke.

I really enjoyed this video. Awesome to see a rock star that is so humble and actually appreciates his fans. Blows my mind that I’ve been listening to slipknot since their first album.

Im a drummer who taught myself how to play drums playing along to the first 3 albums and disaster pieces dvd.. before KZread and Joey will always be my favorite drummer but Jim has always been my favorite member of slipknot. Chill personality, no ego. Even inspired me to learn guitar as well. When I saw them in 99 he was playing janky charvels and I think hes signed by them now. Pretty cool to see his career progress over the years.

Hearing you on the opening riff for Dead Memories at Rockville this year was chilling and I watch my recording of it sluggishly. Jim Root, you are a legend! Thank you for your effort.

I absolutely love Jim, he is such a great guitarist and writer and also a badass character. 🤘🙌🔝

Ive always liked Jim, he seems like a real guy.

Thanks for helping me over the years! I’m now in my 40’s, a dad, and a working professional and still a Maggot!!!!!

thanks for sharing jim is a cool person with amazing cars and bikes

Beautiful garages. Great interview!

What a badass. Badass cars, badass bikes. Just everything about this dude is awesome

Slipknot is the reason why I got into metal and Jim is one of my biggest inspirations as far as guitar players. Love how no bs he is, and how unpretentious the man is. He likes what he likes and doesn’t give a fuck what people think.

Love it. The music definitely helped through high school bs. Some of the strongest nostalgia is for these guy’s personality. Still a fan and actually waiting on another one if his guitars in the mail now.

Jim is such a badass and inspiration!

Still one of the best bands I've ever seen live. 2009 Adelaide, Australia. Last original line up.

Thank you Jim You are an inspiration Stay the cool guy you are Changing lives Your fans love you for a reason

Fascinating watch Jim is certainly a kind hearted unpretentious guy just living his best life It's amazing how his creativity does make a difference and of course inspires 👏

Your music helps and inspires Jim!!! Nice collection!!🙏🏽👍🎵🎸😎

Seen these guys at download in 19 and this year (23) and were fantastic!

Awesome. Thank you James

Much love for Jim and SlipKnot. He is f'in awesome!

Not only did you get to hang out with Jim Root, you got to jam with him !!!!! Damn dude. You can call it quits, you have arrived. Awsome

SLIPKNOT makes EVERYTHING better!!! Thank you so much for interviewing Jim! What a collection of cars, bikes and guitars!

I can never get over just how big he is. Mick too.

He seems like one of the last true genuine humans in that industry.

keep grinding and go get your dreams!.. nice one Jim well deserved thanks for your music

Great interview Zach !! Thank you James as well!! As an advisor Vintage Harley & Guitar collector /player I appreciate this inside look!!

Bike therapy the best ever! Thanks for the most badass rifs ever

I have never gotten so excited and clicked on a video so fast. I’ve wanted to see inside this man’s garage for ever.

Love you Jim 🤘🤘

Jim Root has been a hero of mine for a long time! Was thrilled to know that he is a Muscle Car and Mopar enthusiast as well! Love those cars!! Cool to see his interests on display like that!

Jim is so badass looking on stage with his length and mask along with Mick. Also a such gentle giant of man.

This is why I love Jim, a very nice guy and amazing Person.

What an awesome dude Jim is!

What an awesome story of the first week of slipknot and then driving to go record the self titled record that is amazing

Jim Root has always been not only my favorite Slipknot guitarist, but my favorite metal guitarists period. This video only made like him even more. Such a down to earth guy. That black 69 Roadrunner is such a sick ass car.

That was a great interview Jim kicks ass those cars are awesome.
