Skating A Museum After Hours

London’s Natural History Museum is famous throughout the world both for its collections (including the giant blue whale skeleton known as Hope) and the architectural sweep of the building itself.
Open since the 1880’s, the city’s grandest museum is a mere stone’s throw from the Royal Albert Hall location of our 2016 Hold The Line contest, and so when the opportunity to get locked into the space’s possibilities arose, we were all-in.
From Argentina, Belgium, the Philippines and Brazil four of our favourite women in the world answered the call to skate one of the world’s most famous locations for one night only.
Margie Didal, @LeticiaBufoni , Lore Bruggeman and Aldana Bertran all converged for a never-to-be-repeated skate session inside the fabled halls- all on the proviso that whatever went down nothing got broken!
With just a few minor mods required the session was on, with an injured Margie in charge of hype duties throughout the night as our squad bagged as much footage as they could from an almost unbelievably photogenic environment.
Enjoy their new mini-film from this once-in-a-lifetime shared experience as we continue to take skateboarding everywhere we can!

We hope you had the best time!

[@RedBullSkateboarding]

Thank you for having us! It was a blast! 🤩

[@LJ7000]

Corporate and institutional infiltration of skating culture. Not for me.

[@ian5472]

Well done @naturalhistorymuseum, you found a way to devalue your mission and the treasures you were entrusted to promote, risk unnecessary damage to your historical building and collections and promote a highly dumb, shallow idea in an era so full of dumb ideas it is hard to invent a new one - all for some clicks and corporate profits. Great message too: "There is absolutely nothing corporate money can't buy. History, heritage, priceless artifacts - they are all nothing more but a stage for your shameless self-promotion." You do not need this type of promotion. They do. Show some respect. Saying this as a skateboarder working in marketing.

[@jagaloon216]

This was not impressive. At all. I found it inappropriate and sad. What the two subjects - the NHM and 'women's skateboarding' have in common I have no idea and having watched this I have concluded...very little. The users of the museum (and the museum was used in this case) are just not the kind of association I want with the NHM and I really am at a loss as to what leech of a virtue signalling rat at the NHM sold out our great museum for this frankly poor performance. Act your purpose = You are not a skatepark and stop virtue signalling. I'm not angry, just disappointed.

[@thegreatandterribleday6244]

^haters gon hate. I thought this was really cool.

[@mypradasatthecleanerss]

Crazy. This would be in a Tony Hawk game back in the day. Now the ship in Boston Harbour just has to let Red Bull in and we have Underground 2

[@anthonyskates9079]

Margie is always good energy. I really liked the way Leticia’s back smith looked.

[@RedBullSkateboarding]

We love these words! Both are BEASTS! 🤩

[@dextergray1670]

The skater in me loves this. The historian in me hates it.

[@RonnyFootage]

Can relate 100%

[@spidey3471]

I’d be more appalled if it was a fine art museum, risking seeing a board fly through a irreplaceable canvas or sculpture. In this video though I was more worried about the boards nicking or chipping at the architecture

[@paperclipsamurai]

@dextergray1670 Yes I completely agree!!!

[@NotVictoria]

What a gorgeous blend of visuals

[@EricJKuhns]

This is a dream spot! I love how red bull is sending their skaters to skate normally unskateable spots now.

[@gr1nn3r84]

It works both ways! Promotes skateboarding especially for women, and hopefully boosts visits to one of the best museums in the country❤ ❤❤❤

[@TheIdontcare444]

You don’t know what you’re talking about, this museum doesn’t need “boosts” in visits, love skateboarding 100%, but this is just preposterous

[@gr1nn3r84]

@TheIdontcare444 The natural history museum board has authorised this , they will have done a full health and safety brief and risk assessment of damage, so I can't see why this is preposterous to you.

[@Oldassmetalhead]

This was gnarly! As a skater and history buff this was fun to see

[@TommyFibonacci13]

Amazing video !!! Im hyped to buy a pack of redbulls !!!!!

[@CodyKhaoz]

This is dope!! I love how we are Turing THUG into real life!!!

Thank you!! ✌️

[@bluegold21]

This fucking rocks. No pun intended. In case there are any old fossils watching this.

[@carlosiespinozab]

HOW does this even happen??? Red Bull is just insane. Imagine getting the call as a skater: "yo guys, we're going in the NHM today to skate" - "You mean outside in the curb?" - "DID I STUTTER?"

[@drfrankendoodle]

Sad margie couldn’t skate she rips and has such an awesome vibe/attitude.

[@RedBullSkateboarding]

She will be back in no time! 😎

[@markyhunter8301]

I like how many people hate on them skating inside the museum but understand that they had permission and the museum accommodated and helped them to set up the park. To me it’s THPS IRL so hate all you want but they are being creative

[@MangaJosh]

This would have made a great old school Tony Hawk level. Bet the hidden tape is either in the t-Rex bones or the whale hanging from the ceiling.

[@bloodmasta1]

hell yes! the kickflip over the dino had to be done!!! killed it ladies!!! (not the dinosaur that was already dead)

[@THECHRISAL3X]

This is some THPS stuff right here! Location is so unique haha

The second I saw this I clicked: not because I like red bull (never drunk it) but because the architecture and pillars in the thumbnail was so obviously the NHM London

[@pritchardpritchard8830]

Come to Cardiff. Will show you some sick spots

[@evamaematthews8124]

I’ve been there and it is so incredible there I don’t understand why you would risk breaking something but good video (:

[@TL4546b]

I don’t remember the velociraptor being there since I went there last year and they only skated in hintze hall. The people were in danger here, not the artifacts

[@Vikanuck]

Everything was set up for them to do so. No self respecting museum on this planet would let a bunch of skaters inside anything they did, and you kinda shoulda realized what was up when the raptor just bounced back (it was fake) and she didn’t break the glass to the display - that was a replaced case made of plexiglass… also they were literally showing themselves setting up railings and stuff lol… so I mean, you kind of have to use you’re head and realize that they have been given a crazy level of permission to do some skating in some very specialized and localized areas of the building. That bench was also wicked fake lol… they would have been arrested otherwise. So I mean, yeah… I guess you haven’t figured out ‘don’t believe everything you see on the internet is real’ yet, but hopefully soon will lol.

[@HarleyQuinn-nl7zv]

Is this illegal?

[@ryanuriebuxton]

This was hard to watch

[@utterlybrilliant]

So stupid. Why would the museum allow this? Red Bull must have thrown them A LOT of cash. I hope that dinosaur was a 3D printed replica, and the glass cases were brought in for this.

[@ryanuriebuxton]

Yeah ain’t no way

[@ShouldHaveBeen]

The dinosaur was likely a casted replica.

[@Make-It-Skateable]

Im glad you posted this!! I thought I was the only one who was a little disappointed the museum aloud this. Im a skater threw and threw but also a history lover and I didnt think it was appropriate to be risking priceless history.

"If we break anything do we have to pay for it?" Well let's see, everything in there is priceless...so a smart person wouldn't have to ask that question.

[@memorysometimers3067]

This is the worst idea. Kids will try to skate museums now.

[@jimizxztheorginal]

Yeh I love skating but this was stupid. Like "oops we hit a dinosaur fossil"... dont f with things we can't repair/replace

[@HarleyQuinn-nl7zv]

@@jimizxztheorginal Exactly! I don't know if they knew this or if they just didn't care but dinosaur bones are pretty hard to come by and if they break them, I'm very positive NONE of them have the money to replace it.

[@BH181]

​@@HarleyQuinn-nl7zvtbf, majority of the displays in a museum are replicas.

[@ian5472]

@@BH181 That is not true, replicas are only made for very fragile, unique or extremely valuable objects. Most are usually as authentic as they get. That is in fact the point of a museum.

why

Not many days you see a hottie like Leticia kickflip a dinosaur

[@zezuntxiduntxi]

Cool video, but I don't get why you would do that...

[@ShouldHaveBeen]

​@@chameliousI'm a skater and have access to a museum. I have never felt the need to do this, so trying to belittle someone based on your baselessly skewed logic is pretty ignorant. If you really think that this video is going to increase the museum's visitor admission that much then you must not understand why Red Bull did this. First off, Red Bull would cover the bill for damages and not the museum. Second, this is just a glorified Red Bull advertisement. Whatever publicity the museum receives is overshadowed by the money Red Bull paid them to do this.

[@ian5472]

@@chamelious Also a skater, would never even dream of risking damage to a historical building and its priceless artifacts for several minutes of selfish pleasure (let alone corporate profits). This attitude is precisely why everyone hates skateboarders. Grow up, the world is not your playground. Btw, do you know how many visitors the NHM has every year? Do you really think 40k views is "massive publicity" for them? Red Bull need the publicity, not NHM.

[@gwen2745]

the dino skeleton is 100% definitely a replica, they certainly won't risk damaging it and the museum also looks suspiciously empty. I wonder what red bull is planning with this? how can they make a profit from this? 30K views in 4 days isn't that great either.

[@pip_drop]

weird concept: it was for fun and the brand visibility from this is enough for them

[@spidey3471]

Def has to be a replica, and a taxidermy alligator in a case isn’t exactly priceless too.

ancient ancestors/dinosaurs go though actually life and actual stuggles, the human ancestors make artifacts that still exist today stolen by their disrespectful descendants now the later descendants are skating around those artifacts and also dino skeletons...if anything breaks beyond repair you wouldnt be able to replace it, the majority of humans now days dont even have the originality and soul to make some of the stuff the ancestors made and this is how some people treat those things 👀 ancestors would probably be face palming, be embarrassed and ashamed of what humans have become.
