Danny MacAskill Does a Wheelie
As one of the top trials riders in the world, Danny MacAskill can certainly do a wheelie. In this fun video, he does wheelies all over the place, joined by a bunch of friends. The behind-the-scenes video is just as fun. And I watched the “how to do a wheelie” companion video with interest because I’ve never been able to do a wheelie on a bike for more than a couple of seconds and it’s probably time to learn — even though a manual would be more useful for mountain biking. (via the kid should see this)

Love that track, too. TIL the sample is from a traditional Zulu song called Sesiya Hamba, at 0:51 here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djy0h_IQVJc
This reminded me of this old Outside magazine article that I've always had a soft spot for: https://www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-adventure/biking/project-wheelie-mother-son/
