2022 World Finals XXI Freestyle | Camping World Stadium in Orlando, FL | Part 2 | Monster Jam

[@jacktheIV44]

I will give credit for this episode not being voiced-over in a studio during post-production/editing. Really nice to hear that this was recorded at Camping World Stadium live as it happened

[@zachfarb9039]

I'm a little disappointed with them not giving freestyle two hours of tv coverage the grandiose of world finals mean nothing to you feld.

[@jacktheIV44]

Really annoying how they cut out several performances because they weren’t given enough run-time 😒

Monster jam if you see this I hope that the world finals 22 freestyle broadcast has all the full freestyles and don’t have any highlights like world finals 19

[@Christian-h1c9v]

This has got to be the best finals ever

[@magreen311]

It should be illegal to skip Joe Koehler's run.

[@jamesrichardson381]

I feel like they are making the same mistake nascar made by either attempting to right a slide in popularity or just wanting to grow they make to many changes to try and bring in new fans forgetting about the fans they already have. They are watering down the finals by basically making so many categories that a large number of trucks could walk away as "Champions". No matter what the funny thing is even with all the new categories it's doubtful anyone will ever catch the master, Tom Meents. No one has even came close to his total championships and almost all of them came the honest, old fashion way. He is the best to ever do it and honestly no one else comes close.

[@JackTheripper911]

I've been a Tom Meents fan since the days he was a mud racer running "Shake Me" and then getting asked by Paul Shaffer to drive Monster Patrol. Once he beat Dennis Anderson in one of his first races, it instantly made him a superstar in the sport and from that point on, Tom Meents has done nothing but push monster jam and monster trucks forward further and further past what was long thought to be impossible. The man has innovatived how monster jam is done. Other drivers had to start taking the risks Tom was back in the 1990s and early 2000s. People would freestyle, but would be very limted in how people navigated the track, and thats the key word here "navigated" the early drivers were less freestyling to push the limits of themselves or their truck, but just to show the crowd a big truck jumping cars and crushing them. They weren't pushing the envelope because up until that point nobody needed too. Once Tom Meents arrived on the scene things changed. The way Meents freestyled was dramatically different from anyone else. Whereas others were "navigate" the track, looking for simple hits. Tom would *ATTACK* the track, he would drive his truck into the ground of that track as if the track itself owed him money. He would hit ramps, cars, and just about anything in-between at *ridiculous* speed, far faster than anything anyone else was doing. He was attacked obstacles at angles that other drivers never even considered, and he hit those angles *hard* . Nobody could compete with Tom early on because nobody was willing to go as far as Tom was in pushing their truck and themselves to hit bigger things at faster speeds. Toms 14 world championships are a testament to his phenomenal performance in his Monster Truck career. Tom Meents has been my favorite Monster Truck Driver since i was a little kid. I remember my dad buying Monster Jam World Finals: 1 on Pay Per View back in 2000 while watching it with him and cheering on our favorite Truck/Drive. My dad was Jim Kohler/Avenger fan because he was from Michigan like we are, my favorite was Tom Meents because he was an otherworldy driver. Watching Tom single handedly destroy every single one of his opponents that night was so satisfying, from his first ever race against WCW Nitro Machine to his finals race against Scott Hartsock/Gunslinger (R.I.P). I was overjoyed that Tom won his first world title and i cheered him on in freestyle, however it wasn't meant to be that night. But next year my dad ordered the Monster Jam World Finals: 2 and that year we saw Tom Meents in Goldberg take it one step further and he sweeps the World Finals winning both racing and freestyle and absolutely making me a lifelong fan even moreso. Seeing Tom sweep World Finals 3 for me was the point at which i crowed Tom Meents the G.O.A.T of Monster Jam. He was undefeated in 3 years straight of racing competition (12-0) and had back to back years as World Freestyle champion, giving Tom Meents 5 championship Titles in 3 years. For me, Tom Meents is the greatest monster truck driver of all time

[@katierydermaurer3415]

This was one of the best world finals ever in the history of Orlando

[@NOAH-dv1rx]

Yes. My son is excited 😊

[@nateisdabest]

One of the more annoying things is that now if the trucks shed too many body panels they will shut them off, what a way to loose momentum and what happened to just letting the trucks run until something actually broke.

[@gabetalks9275]

I am now convinced that it's illegal for Blue Thunder to have nice things. Why can't my childhood just win one championship. Plz, just one. Is that really so much to ask for?

[@DefOfDopeProductions]

I felt this in my soul lol. Blue Thunder has always been a favorite of mine since childhood.

[@o0_VanYsH_0o]

Blue Thunder is the new Monster Mutt, the best truck to not win a championship

[@MACISUS]

Wow to the 2 wheel skills Tom meets. I can’t help but wonder how amazing Denise Anderson would be if he was still driving and not had that back injury ending his pro monster truck career.

[@raffaelemensorio5381]

A Wonderful show of the Moster Jam competition !!!!!😉😉😉😉😉😉😉

[@Kyleisdope52107]

TOD LEDUC!! He definitely should have won freestyle

[@Duval-In-The-Wall]

Or at least made the top 2

[@MonsterJam-MaximumDestruction]

I should agree that todd should’ve won freestyle and Charlie and Ryan should’ve as well

[@Kyleisdope52107]

@MonsterJam-SonuvaDigger Charlie possibly, not Ryan. He didn't really do much because he had a popped tire

[@MonsterJam-MaximumDestruction]

@@Kyleisdope52107 He only had 2 backflips plus he didn’t pop a tire he had a giant leap and bicycled it until rear drive was gone

PERFECT! :)

[@brianrigsby7900]

5:22 y did they shut him off? It’s just fiberglass

[@KOrgan0414]

If the truck runs over the pieces it could kick up into the stands and potentially hurt someone. Usually they don’t care about a piece or two but when the entire body is laid across the track that’s a different story.

[@GraveDigger35]

@@KOrgan0414 dumb excuse, shouldn't have been shut off

[@magreen311]

@@GraveDigger35 An incident in 2009 occurred when a piece of a truck was flung into the crowd because the truck drove over it. The piece killed someone in the crowd.

@@magreen311 if you're talking about Tacoma, Natural High didn't run anything over, it had a damaged drive shaft and as it went to hit an obstacle, a piece of the driveshaft ring broke off and got launched and killed a kid, it wasn't that he ran it over and it launched it, the part broke off at the worst possible moment

What has happened to monster jam? Like i grew out of it and stopped keeping track back in like 2015 and there are 5 grave diggers in the wf? I know theyre mostly family and all but seriously? As long as its entertaining to the fans i guess...

​@@glowstxThat's depressing. Sam Boyd Stadium will always be the cathedral of Monster Jam. 😭

[@justaperson8560]

You wouldn’t run outta room in Las Vegas at og world finals track

[@gabetalks9275]

Sam Boyd Stadium is permanently closed, so they can't go back. The opening of Allegiant Stadium is what led to that because UNLV left for the new stadium.

[@Trindal]

I’ve got a 2 year old obsessed with monster trucks. This kid has almost 30 of the 1:64 scale monster jam trucks. I want to make him a track like the one displayed when talking about the layout. What are you using to build it? Is there a way to get each ramp obstacle or is it just a guessing thing? I looked for a kit but it’s either for the smaller trucks, or that sand that would fall apart… I guess I could cut them out of wood and glue them altogether and then make a stadium from a chunk of plywood.
