DANNY WAY IS UNSTOPPABLE | World of X Games

Danny Way showed the world the meaning of "never give up" during the 2008 Skateboard Big Air competition. After taking one nasty fall he dropped back in and nailed his trick. Then another gnarly fall which caused him to miss a run, but didn't keep him from stomping the Silver Medal run on his last attempt. There is no skater like Danny Way.

I remember watching these runs live as a teenager. Danny Way's refusal to throw in the towel in that contest remains one of the most impressive, inspiring displays of mental and physical fortitude I have ever seen.

[@thechamfam2328]

he was so jacked up

[@dankbuds-md5li]

Or one or the dumbest things long term, ffs

[@dankbuds-md5li]

🤦‍♂️

[@shawnrw3727]

He had the adrenaline pumpin. I bet a couple hours later he sure as hell felt it

[@gunnar9456]

He had a broken ankle after the first fall

[@Luke101]

@@gunnar9456 he did all those tricks with a broken ankle???

[@milesallen7339]

Dude when danny says he gonna so it till he literally can't he actually mean its. So sick. The adreline isn't pumping hard for an hour. You feel it then too.

[@gmoney87ism]

@@Luke101 yes he did. The crowd didn’t even know, because there was so little time between tries that the message was delayed till like try number 3. Ridiculous

[@erick91402]

"When you can't do something, remember Danny Way."

[@paulshamblin6260]

When he said, IM TAKING EVERY RUN, you know he means it. It gets me every time. I will never do anything like that but if he could do that, I can do the things I need to. I wish nothing but good things for Danny Way.

[@thechamfam2328]

I still get goosebumps. Danny way for those who wound up here down a youtube rabbit hole is literally the godfather of mega ramp. He came up with the idea, he along with his DC counterparts built the first one so he could break/set world records. Dude is a monster.

[@nicfoster4094]

I respect Danny Way as much as the next guy but I thought Bob Burnquest was the mega ramp godfather

[@thechamfam2328]

@@nicfoster4094 you would be very wrong....Mat Hoffman had the first one built at his house but the mega ramp as we know it today was designed by Danny way

[@mikeenriquez3805]

This guy......this guy right here... He just moved me to tears.,,,damn!! I can't explain how i feel but this guy just made my day!! He made me look at life in a totally different way.. He took it literally but.. No matter how many times you fall and stumble, you just have to keep standing up., Mind not the bumps and bruises, stand up and be strong. Coz you can't be broken unless you give up.,,bravely finish it all and keep STANDING UP!!!

[@LEG1N4M3NT]

when he says "i'm taking every run" it just makes the hairs on your back stand up...unbelievable

[@vishavjeetsingh7862]

Real Life Scott Sterling, The man The Myth The Legend, Danny Way

[@djfunguy7741]

Without Danny where would the skate 3 Hawaii dreams be

[@MetalOfAllOwns]

i literally almost cried at the end! so powerful... Bob did the same thing 2012 !! was insane, he almost broke his back, but he came back and won the damn thing !!! was incrediblle

[@ElliotCElliotson]

Just the fact that he took two nasty falls and still got silver is a testament to how good Danny Way is.

[@crazycatman5928]

Danny is a gnarly dude. Remember seeing him for the first time in those old H-Street videos. He’s come so far.

[@SamuelHorler]

Absolute machine. I watch this every now and then to just inspire myself. Can't wait for Waiting for Lightning...

[@franciscoduarte1925]

He is the one whom invented mega ramp . Much respect for this man.🏆

[@joerogansdmtpipe727]

Professional skateboarders are some of the toughest athletes out there for sure

[@claudiusraphael9423]

Megaramp: "Hi, Danny. I'm breathtaking pain." Danny: "Nice to meet you, i'm breathtaking will."

[@rockgollum4503]

Danny Way probably has the longest adrenaline high ever

[@meiphukingdiqq]

It's not exactly a high. But it is 100% determination.

[@BusterBLOODVeSSAL]

I lived with Matt Hensley for a while. Met Danny. Such an amazing bunch of guys. What a legend that man is.

[@trentclarkson9655]

Where there is a will, there's a Way.

[@stereothrilla8374]

What an absolute LEGEND! Danny is by far the mega ramp/big air/transfer GOAT! I don’t even know who else would be in that conversation. If you’d even like to try to disagree, I’ll remind you that the man jumped the Great Wall Of China on a skateboard!?! NUFF SAID!

[@416street]

Danny Way is a fucking trooper. after taking those falls he just keeps going. i used to race dirt bikes and shit like on the track and everything when i was 12 took a nasty fall like insane nasty was in the hospital for 2 days. never been on a dirtbike since. props to him

[@andersborum9267]

I used to ride his pro models back in the day .. happy to have helped put a few dollars in his pocket.

[@Mike-ge7pe]

@x games please upload the full broadcast. Please! The clips don’t do it justice. This is absolutely legendary

[@drizzdrazz]

Today someone told me Skating is weak and not as tough as football....umm whatever floats your boat man.

[@NickyNicest]

Depends on how hard you push it but y you usually get way more injuries skating if you actually challenge yourself

[@SoulKingBK]

As someone who has done both they have no clue what they are talking about.

Love Danny way but, without context, im imagining looping that, now imagining meming it, oh god please stop me😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@Juliano_DJOL]

He may be humble and people may not say or do a whole lot to his face but man Danny Way has more respect than just about anyone in skating IMO maybe like The Gonz, Rodney Mullen, Tony Hawk, Nyjah, then Way... But I know one thing he is someone u wldnt F wit or if u did u gonna have a big problem. I've heard stories about him that I'm not sure are true or not but I wldnt doubt for a sec that they are! I remember this contest and being scared for him...and I'm not the type of guy to be scared for someone on TV normally lol! But I know I read one time he stayed awake and watched his knee surgery so he has to be tough as it gets. Also gotta remember he was the one that invented the mega with that weird thing DC built and the wall of China then him and Andy Mac and maybe Bob right? I don't know, but I do know that mega ramp still makes me scared everytime I see it hahahaha!

[@shakeandbreak2938]
