  • It's literally superhuman. Hopefully one day we'll have higher frame rate recordings, because this just looks incomprehensibly mad
  • I swear people like this must experience time more slowly than the rest of us. I can't even imagine memorizing a 37 mile course.
  • Unbelievable! I think it was Joey Dunlop who, when asked how difficult it was, replied with: "Well, there's a green blur and a grey blur. I just try and stay on the grey one."
  • This man was asked what he thinks about when he is flat out and he responded with “why don’t they make a faster bike” different breed

    Being able to sustain this level of concentration for 17 minutes is insane. One screw up or forgotten corner and you're dead.
  • Speechless, absolutely amazing. A masterpiece from Peter Hickman, in staying on the gray blur and avoiding the green blur.

    I was there for all practice week and he was flying all week. You need to stand roadside to appreciate the earth shattering effect as all of the TT riders as they pass, it is incredible, bravest sportspersons on the planet.
  • @cthuluhoop13
    He left himself no room for error on a lot of those corners. Incredible racing
  • @pars5027
    Thank you for letting us hear the sound of a motorcycle! Not a musical soundtrack. The sound of engine, exhaust, acceleration, deceleration, is music to my ears.❤🎉😊

    Riding a motorbike at 136mph in a straight line on a freeway is pretty nerve-wracking, this guy just averaged that on a twisting rural course. Magnificent.
  • @glintz5029
    My brain and eyes simply can't process navigating this course at these speeds. The ability to have that much trust in a bike, memorizing 37 miles of complicated course bumps, rises, turns, shadows, walls, shift changes, distances between them, never losing focus seems impossible. Just hearing the bike that tight puts me into a trance. Truly amazing what humans can do.

    If I rode this 37.75 mile course on a guaranteed closed circuit (no possible oncoming traffic, no possible surprises) and achieved an average speed of 50mph I would be buying champagne for everybody in sight. 136mph is unreal. This man is an artist, such skill and guts. Unreal!
  • @RoeyHaviv
    I still don’t understand how they process all of this at that rate. Incredible.
  • @bobkin611
    He's going by the crowd so fast, they look frozen in time. Almost like they're a photograph... Insane lap

    Wife and I went to the 2014 race and did a bus tour with Phil Mccallen….he narrated the entire course while taking questions from the tour group. Absolutely the best time while there. He noted that the man who wins the race is the one who woke up that morning with zero concern or fear of death. Most of the time instinct kicks in.
  • @Slash1066
    I read that his front tyre does a number of miles less than that track length because it's in the air so much, and the rear does more miles than the circuit because he gets massive wheelspin laying down the power. Surely one of the greatest racing feats of all time.
  • @Wtf0069
    Man, watching this even I've developed tunnel vision!..........These guy's are something else, courage doesn't begin to describe it because what I've just seen is unimaginable to the senses!
  • @jamesbond8608
    the skill level to ride like this is off the scale. These riders are titans! Also the mechanics who fettle the bikes in order to achieve this performance must be top notch. Kudos to them.
  • @seanc6754
    The dude is a monster.. Michael seemed like the guy to beat but then its senior time and Hicky is like "hold my beer"
  • If only more people would realize what an amazing thing this is.
