- So in our How To Bunny Hop video,
we built this amazing little hop-o-meter,
which was really great fun for us all to use,
and then we thought, why don't we try
and set a new world record?
Because fat bikes are amazing fun,
but I searched online and I couldn't find
a very big fat bike bunny hop.
So today we're gonna set a GMBN
fat bike world bunny hop record.
That's right, this is serious.
Ready boys? - Ready.
- Let's do it.
(firecrackers)
(explosion)
- So, it's currently set at 30 centimetres.
I think that's quite big.
What's the current bunny hop world record for a normal bike?
- Well actually 30's pretty good,
very useful but some of the top guys now
are doing well over one metre 30.
- What? - Yeah.
- One metre thirty? - That's massive.
- You guys have got-- - That's over you.
- [Blake] That's right there 'cause that's 95.
- You guys have got a serious challenge on your hands.
I wanna see some special heights.
- Well, technically, that's gonna be the
fat bike bunny hop world record.
- [Martyn] But not for long.
(laughter) - Wow (chuckles), he's on it.
(ding)
- Wow. - Nice.
- 'Kay, 'kay, it's? - 45.
- 45. - 45.
Here comes Blake, setting a new record.
(ding) - That's good.
- [Doddy] That's nice.
(ding)
- Whoa. - Wow.
(claps) - Wow.
- [Martyn] Come on, Neil.
- [Blake] Go on, Neil.
(buzzer) (laughter)
- Wow. - The horse refused.
- [Blake] (laughter) The horse refused.
- The horse said no.
- [Doddy] Definitely getting another go at that.
- So in any good game of bunny hop,
what you need to do is allow every rider
three attempts at each height.
Neil's got two left.
(ding) Wow.
- By the skin of your teeth. - Wow.
Hitting the bar's allowed.
If it doesn't fall then you're good.
- [Doddy] 55?
- 55, Neil's still in.
- [Woman] Doddy, even a labrador could do that.
(groans) (buzzer)
- One more go.
- [Martyn] Last go or Neil is out.
This is getting good.
- There's something so simple and good about this.
(groans) (buzzer)
- I messed that one up a treat.
- You're done, mate.
- [Doddy] He's got one more, doesn't he?
- [Martyn] No, he's out.
Sorry, sorry, I gotta play by the rules.
♪ Doddy ♪
- No pressure. - Well done, Neil.
- [Martyn] Come on, Doddy, go on.
Oooh, yes! (ding)
- [Blake] That's high.
- [Martyn] Bing Bong Samson.
(ding) Oh, he's loving it.
He's loving the fat bike.
(zipping)
60 centimetres, here he comes.
(ding) - Nice.
- [Martyn] Here he goes.
(buzzer) (groans)
It's pressure.
Doddy, this is your last chance--
- That's for sure. - To set a world record.
This chance may never come again in your life.
- [Blake] That's good speed, isn't it?
- [Martyn] Yep.
(dings) (cheers)
(clapping)
Whoo-hoo-hoo! - Nice.
- [Blake] Who's all about the speed, all about the speed.
- [Martyn] We got a contest.
- [Blake] 'Bout the speed.
- [Doddy] We'll be going up again.
- 65. - 65.
(ding) - Wow.
- [Martyn] But I think Doddy's got
something to say about it.
- [Blake] Doddy.
(cheers) (ding)
- That's insane. - Wow.
- [Martyn] That's insane.
- 70. - That was good.
- The competition here is-- - Wow, that was good.
High five, my dude. - Nuts.
We're literally over-- - It's the limbo.
- We're over my knee height, which is big.
(ding) Whoa.
(claps)
- [Martyn] You're getting some serious pop out of this bike.
- It's all that yoga and namaste.
- Namaste.
- Talk to the trees and all that.
(nervous groaning) (ding)
(cheering and clapping)
No way, dude. - That was insane.
It totally went (dnnk). (laughter)
- [Blake] 75 centimetres.
(groaning) (buzzer)
I'll tell you what, it's not over.
You've got that.
We're at 75 centimetres at the moment.
This is seriously high.
You guys are gonna pushed to match this.
- Go on, Doddy.
(buzzer) (groans)
So close. - I hopped too early.
- Come on, Doddy. - New world record.
(buzzer) (groaning)
- Oh, I can't believe it. - That was like tap, tap.
- [Neil] Have you done this one, Blake?
- [Blake] No.
- That was seriously high. - Well done. (high five)
- You were effectively over it that time,
and it just wouldn't stay there.
So, dude, we've cleared 70. - Yeah.
- These two guys are out. - Yeah.
- So if you clear this-- - Yeah.
- Now this is big. - Yeah.
- You are our new fat bike world bunny hop record
champion.
- Oh my gosh.
- Have you ever been world record holder before?
- No. - Then do this.
- Okay (chuckles). - This could be amazin'.
- [Blake] Wow, dudes, this is high.
- GMBN world record.
Here it comes.
He's not messing about with the run up.
He wants it.
(ding) (cheers)
- [Doddy] Strike again while he's on it.
Alright, he's got-- - Whoa!
- [Doddy] I reckon you got 85 in ya, yeah?
- I'm clickin' my elbows and everything.
- [Martyn] Come on.
- Yes! (ding)
(laughter) - Wow, wow.
This is insane. (laughter)
- [Doddy] That was like boing-oi-oi-oing.
- Don't.
- [Martyn] Right, you have set the record
at 80 centimetres now. - Yeah.
- We've got it at 85.
Would you wanna go somewhere in the middle?
- No. - 85 then,
- Yeah. - Is the new attempt.
You're nearly at tennis course net.
(buzzer)
- Wow. - I went a bit slow there.
- You broke our bulldog clip.
- Oh, no, it's still good, still got one side.
(chuckling) (buzzer)
- [Blake] I can't see it now.
- You're rushing it, you're rushing it.
So we've set a brand new bunny hop
world record for fat bikes.
Blake Samson, you're a world record holder.
80 centimetres.
I mean, - 80, dead on.
- We're pretty sure it's official.
I mean, there's a little bit of a bend in the bar.
The grounds not flat, and we made the hop-o-meter ourselves.
And the Guinness World Records guys, they're not here, but
if you disagree with us, why don't you make a video
about you doing it and see how high you get.
But right now, we've got one attempt left at 85 centimetres.
We're already celebratin'. - Yeah.
- Blake, one more go.
Let's if we can,
let's see if we can get this height.
- Yeah! (ding)
- No way! (laughter)
No way.
- [Doddy] Gonna go up, dude.
- Cause I rushed it, that's why.
- [Doddy] It's gotta go up.
- That was the cleanest one.
You know what though, dude?
The only problem is, and I learnt this
through my career, right?
You can never beat the stick.
It always gets higher. - It does.
That's...
(buzzer) (groans)
- [Doddy] Two more go's.
(groans) (buzzer)
- [Martyn] One more try.
Come on, Blake.
World record!
(ding ding)
I can't believe we set a brand new
fat bike bunny hop world record.
It currently stands with Blake Samson, that man right there.
- And I'm surprised myself.
- 85. - 85 centimetres.
That is the new standard for fat bike bunny hop.
- Yes (claps). - Oh my God.
We're pretty sure it's official.
- Yeah, it is official, 100%.
- I mean, if you think differently,
then why don't you make a video of you
bunny hopping a fat bike and show us what you got.
