I Fell Off A Cliff In Utah! | Riding The Rampage Desert With Tom Isted

[@gmbn]

Would you try 'King Kong'? What's the craziest trail you've ridden?

[@LawrenceMacMacster]

Not sure what's the craziest, this or treasure trail? At least it's dry in the desert 😅

[@Noaaaaaaaaahhhhh-789]

Probably a red in the Lake District

[@Paganiproductions84]

No

[@semadragun]

Hell no you guys have skills to ride King Kong. Blake was crazy seeing you jump on that trail but the footage was just fantastic thank you and glad your ok!💪

[@Paganiproductions84]

@@semadragun dumb shit

[@porktec]

Blake for Rampage 25!

[@rodmarker2071]

Yo!!!

[@Zimblake]

😂 that location is no joke. Naaaaa 😅

[@funiguy8779]

U can dooo it!!!

[@ShadowTrace_1]

I love King Kong. Always sketchy as hell

[@PhilippNau]

Of course on a Hardtail 💁🏿‍♂️

[@TypeIIAdventures]

When something looks that intimidating on a GoPro, you can only imagine what it’s like in person.

[@nickcutler7759]

Blake does all his own stunts 🤘

[@gmbn]

He does indeed!

[@maboe2029]

That startled "where's my bike?" got me 😂

[@sokrebis]

You know that rider is OK if he is asking for a bike. If not, then ask for medical assistance immediately

[@danh925]

Think it was shock kicking in. People assume I’m good after a wreck because I’m cracking jokes, but I’m trying to cover how freaked out i am. 😀

[@yengsabio5315]

​@@danh925Indeed a coping mechanism.

[@Hilirimpsuti]

@@sokrebis Not necessarily. Few years ago, when I went of the trail and crashed 30+ mph in to a rock garden the first thing I did after the crash was to ask from my buddy "Is my bike ok?". I ended up to get a ride from ATV and ambulance to the nearest hospital and had surgery next morning. Luckily, I only had strained neck/upper back and broke a collarbone that now has a lot of metal on it. Without a proper protection (fullface helmet, elbow, back, shoulder, knee etc. protections) the results would have been much worse. The bike suffered few scratches on handlebar and fork. :D

[@sokrebis]

@@Hilirimpsuti there is an exception to every rule 😁

[@gavinback226]

Wasn’t expecting Tom’s comment on the difficulty of Kong v Rampage 😂 Sheds an interesting light on Brendog being robbed…..

[@JeffMTBinVA]

Blake is a savage, short sleeves, where's my bike. Glad your okay man. I wouldn't be able to pass the entrance exam of jumping the fence.

[@gmbn]

Haha it's quite a high fence! It's nice and sunny out in the desert so Blake was just topping up the tan 😎

[@Zimblake]

Thanks dude. I’m all good, got away with that one for sure

[@didgineil]

Man rocking King Kong in short sleeve T-shirt 😄 your crazy, but epic amount of respect, true mounting biking 🤟

[@mellissanash7517]

To be fair he live in England, so this would be hot summers day for them, but drier.

[@gmbn]

Thanks very much

[@Zimblake]

It’s a hell of a trail dude.

[@stevengoodwin3154]

Ben Deakin calling Olly Wilkins a bell-end after the "just roll it" had me in stitches when it was originally posted, and I still laugh every time I think about it. That crew of mates are special, especially Olly.✌

[@Zimblake]

😂😂 so good. I had to stop and check out the “you can roll it” drop 😂😂

[@TheBikeRoom]

😂😂😂😅

[@stevencole7331]

This is the difference of a true athlete over the rest of us who is intune with his surroundings. Blake pushed the eject button at the perfect monent . This is what stunt actors do . With a place that is made up of rock blake found a sandpit to land in .

[@BikingwithJP]

Showing how shaken you were was awesome, honest. Looked scary af. Pads are definitely where it's at, collect them all! Glad you're safe to ride another day! 🤘

[@mitch_smith]

TI had a monster run on his first go and had the BIG BRAIN to not try that gap in the wind. Those guys are legends ,top to bottom.

[@deividas_kimontas]

Tom Isted! 🔥💪 Respect for walking away for your second run! The conditions were crazy! 💨😮

[@gmbn]

Huge respect! At least Tom managed to finish his first run and get a score, hopefully we'll see him riding Rampage next year 🔥

[@Zimblake]

The dude did well.

[@andrewchutchins]

So glad Blake survived! Genuinely heart in mouth watch!

[@Zimblake]

Thanks dude. I’m all good thanks. Little bit of a shock 😅

[@BlueKnows]

At the start I'm thinking why abus, they're a lock brand. By the end, thank god for abus! Utah riding is no joke!

[@danytheunicorn95]

Glad you are ok bro, scared me so much, take care, we love you, you are a national treasure in 2 countries

[@roblock2630]

Blake your f***ing amazing. I love watching your videos. The entertainment value is incredible. You’re a top man for attempting these trails and providing us with top notch entertainment. ❤. I’m so glad that you didn’t end up hurting yourself.

[@starshihtzupuppy3409]

Dude, your underbike...being able to descend still is really amazing skills you got!

[@MrMatthias03]

I gave this video a like only because Blake and Tom are safe. Geez, I can't imagine how scary that was, how much worse it could have been, and how your families must feel watching.

[@dunkie976]

Fantastic video guys, it just goes to show how "next level" these guys n gals really are. And AWSOME sound track (I watched with big headphones on). Kudos to the editing team.

[@Seppster58]

Wow! Incredible ride. Glad you're okay Blake. Total respect!

[@gmbn]

He's very lucky it was a nice soft landing! But some incredible riding from both Blake and Tom!

[@Zimblake]

All good thanks dude. Glad I didn’t fall off the next cliff 😅

[@Longi-69]

Blake’s an awesome rider, but after talking through Tom Isted’s kit and protection, I thought he’d wear the same. Lucky man!

[@Drezikm]

congrats Blake, now you have a second birthday! 🎉

[@Stockfish1511]

I had many crashes, but had one 2 months ago and it was horrific. I always did ride bravely, but this time is when i realized man this is not worth it. I could be looking at career ending crashes. I love going to gym and other stuff and love mtb. But the crash put some sense into my head. Luckly i ended with bruises, light concusion and pain, but i was literally 2-3 cm away from breaking all my fingers, ribs, knee etc. I will still do mtb, but i wont take risks anymore. This sht aint worth my handicapped bones. Stay safe bro.

[@SHWELL11]

Cheers! This is one of the few channels I enjoy ALL the presenters..

[@gmbn]

Wow, thanks for watching!

[@Nickubus99]

Just about all of us know the feeling of that shake, But for Blake to get it - that's some serious shit!

[@gunshipanropace2gunshipand119]

Blake being a real mountain biker by worrying about his bike more than himself

[@Zimblake]

Hahaha I thought it had fallen off the next cliff 😅

[@newbury172]

Glad you’re good Blake!

[@FirestormAA]

Holly cow !!!! saw a short video clip of this didn't know is Blake! Glad you are safe man!!!!! Damn i cold sweated a while!

[@Zimblake]

Cheers dude. All good thanks, hell of a trail

[@FirestormAA]

@@Zimblake is damn crazy man..... i was think is freaking close shave. Enjoy the amazing stuff u are doing man!!!!!

[@phoenixinthetrees1446]

Wow. I need to sit down and have a cup of tea after just watching that. Glad you're in one piece, Blake!

[@Danbourne13]

Blake has Balls of steel 😅 top man always pushing the boundaries 👊

[@gnarcouch6832]

That and the entrance are the trickiest parts on the whole trail. I, along with a few friends, have met Jesus at that exact spot. Glad you came out okay, Blake. I ended up in the ER with fractured rib cartilage after shorting that stepdown last year!

[@erikbrynjolfson6478]

Glad you’re OK Blake 🙏🏼 love watching ride and make awesome videos . Stay safe .

[@glenlyman2882]

It was great to meet you at Redbull. Glad you didn't die a couple of days earlier. Keep the great content rolling!

[@Glee73]

9:48 the "roll it" story is still the best and still funny today in 2024!! LOL.

[@awatson3367]

What's it referencing?

[@denistuohy6420]

Dam man, if that was me then I'd probably have laid a cable, I'm glad that your all good

[@mathewemden2068]

Glad you are safe Blake! Thanks for doing a video on protective gear - even if it was an ad. I would like to see more about protective gear. As I get more bold with my mountain biking I am taking more risks. Things like chest protectors, neck protectors, knee and elbow pads, can all get quite expensive. Additionally, there are so many choices and variations on this equipment. A guide breaking down the pros and cons of various bits of protective gear could help some of us stay safer and make the right investments in appropriate safety kit. Thanks a ton for reading!

[@daswienerle3018]

In my experience it's also quite a bit of trial and error. Everyone is different and not every gear fits you like it should. Knee pads or a chest protector for example. It also depends on what you are riding. For a bike park you need different gear than for a normal trail ride or an enduro race. And let's be honest, mountainbiking in general is just expensive so it won't be cheap.

[@bouzouki2006]

Glad you're allright, Blake, you're the life of this channel!

[@TheScramble8]

Had to put on my helmet to watch this. So glad everything was OK. Great content

[@kanewright76]

Gnarly, glad you are OK Blake. 🤘🤙

[@MTB_DREAM]

Best video. Glad you are okay, Blake!

[@samdiaz6162]

Glad you're ok Blake . You guys made the trail look easy despite the crash. That trail looks scary.

[@the_spanner_ch7mp]

Wow glad you're ok Blake You know it's going to be gnarly when Blake says a trail is not graded or sanctioned 😮 of Abus to help out Great stuff GMBN

[@sekc-chua]

This video is out, so you obviously survived to make and edit this video, but effing-ay! Real sweaty palms stuff! Glad you're still here, Mr. Samson!

[@fastfiddler1625]

I cannot believe you just walked away from that one. I'm sure it all hurt in the morning, though.

[@Nivek389]

I live two hours north of here. Pretty cool to see Blake riding in Utah

[@jonathandefoy6376]

I am glad you're ok man! but also the noise you made araaaaroo!

[@johnconarty3762]

Glad to see Blake walk away from that scary crash. Great video!

[@kevinw1129]

Balls of steel Blake!

[@joostdeen9614]

This is a great video, thnx Blake (and thnx Abus😉) Can’t wait for the other Utah video’s 😄💪🏾🤙🏾

[@growlith6969]

Rampage reminds me of those extreme skiers in Chamonix. Not a whole lot of skiing, a whole lot of prep and then a whole lot of falling out of the sky.

[@vladimirmolinaortega170]

Yeah with the correct equipment and bike why not take care blake we Wish you all the best Man i Always enjoy your videos and all the team you are the best of KZbin

[@andymiller3889]

A single-crowned fork on a non-downhill bike is seriously underbiked for that trail. Glad you're alive!

[@jasongleave355]

Blake has the biggest balls, the first test was on the tandem if he survived that rampage is a walk in the park.

[@rducut]

Blake: Honey I'm home! Jen: We need to talk...

[@Chubbyfella1100]

I was so shocked when I saw Blake at rampage for the first time 😂

[@robertdubuc4082]

Your guardian Angels were on the Job, Peace and stay safe 🙏

[@05GDF]

Dammmmmit😂😂😂😂 classic Roll it. Glad your alright 👍🏽 ice mane 🤙🏽

[@Kingsoupturbo]

That Eject sequence move is something that must be familiar to dirt jumpers, knowing its gone wrong and ejecting with that crazy legs spread move! Full arm pads and chest\back seem pretty mandatory for those huge lines with big consequences! at least had some stuff on!

[@xosece]

Life is so beautiful, but so scary at the same time, in those situations. Blake is a god

[@truthrevealved]

know your lines. dont just think you know them. “fills me with confidence” - famous last words

[@ish474]

I'm genuinely happy to see Blake in Utah

[@WarrenCurtis-y4s]

one of the best things ive seen, cheers guys

[@stephengraham6194]

Jeepers creepers 😮 lucky escape there Blake!

[@Adventuregirl96]

That was scary, glad to see you are ok and in good spirits.

[@DJH3891]

Man, man, man, that was close 😑 bit further left and.. glad you are unharmed!

[@devonhaynes9241]

"The roll it drop." What a shout out. Cheers to the ones who thought they could roll it.

[@gmbn]

A great sacrifice 🫡

[@royromero8496]

Best video EVER!!!

[@chrismccannIRL]

Tom is a legend

[@JamesMTBAdventures]

Fair play to you Blake but talking about protecting, how about some elbow pads. I can’t imagine those rocks would be very forgiving if you hit your elbow on one of them 😮

[@andrewbolwell4632]

It’s ! Hats off to these two riders

[@CammonRandle]

Hey welcome to my beautiful state happy to see you guys here!!!

[@dorothyb.]

Great combo of presenters…. Would love to see more of this footage

[@JeffAasgaard]

Glad your safe! 🎉

[@irwannasit]

Glad you're fine mate. The tremble is real. Oh ya. Wonder what's the afterclip from that.

[@danh925]

Hard core Blake. That section claims another rider. Ben, matt jones x2? And yourself, given the three of you have more skill in your little toes compared to my whole body, I’m gonna pass on ever attempting that one. Glad you’re okay mate.

[@gnarcouch6832]

Aside from the initial drop, that is the trickiest part of the trail. For real.

[@JustForFun1171]

My bones start aching just watching the show...🥶

[@CalvoSaitama]

Damn! Blake is my Idol 🔥🔥🤘🏽

[@yasouhasuki5714]

Rush here after seeing the facebook reels glad your you're ok Blake 🔥🔥🔥

Blake for president!

[@scribblassassin]

Nice work Blake!

[@wistyTw]

Mad respect blake 🤟

[@NanoDex]

Glad your ok!

[@SibrenFetter]

You can really see the extreme experience Blake has in the dismount. The mental control he still had to let go really saved him.

[@Marathonmilesbrighton]

Great video! That crash looked scary !

[@gmbn]

Thanks very much :)

[@01MattDunn]

Pro level bail from Blake 🤘🏻 ditch and launch yourself to save yourself

[@3dsmackdown]

The "the sound of a man dying" hahaha.

[@neildonoghueMTB]

Bloody scary 😮

[@rodmarker2071]

Blake my man - you R a beast, but becareful bro - we need the vid fix 👍👍👍 PS when I go gnarly, I use my rollerblade kneepads and Elbow Pads too

[@dorothyb.]

Poor Jen will be having a heart attack…

[@Rydoge7]

The High School Mountainbike team in St. George used to be called the Flying Monkeys. They were a combination of all the schools there but got so big that each school ended up with their own team.

[@kjracz15]

You can't be throwing yourself off of cliffs, Blake. We still need you for a hundred years. 🤣

[@oddarneroll]

Next time, full body armor suite please

[@yengsabio5315]

Abus Modrop is on my wishlist. Oh dear! When can I have one?
