@kylesanchez4409 There is a high budget film of the Dunlops... It's called Road. It's narrated by Liam Neeson...2014. Love your negative vibe by the way!
Truly heartbreaking... I'm glad Michael's been able to somehow channel the family tragedies into insane personal drive. You can definitely sense the presence of his fellow Dunlop legends in his riding recently!
to me mike owns the spirit of a '''pittbull''''.i call him MIKE ''''PITTBULL'''' DUNLOP.this guy is hard as 2 nails stick'ed together. what a rider he really is.....but really.i hope mike will stop one day soon,i'd really wants to see at least one of them dunlop staying alive ,not ''''going'''' via a race crash.
@@sylvandespres7654 I truly hope Michael hangs it up too but sadly I believe he will never be content without winning and thus will be doomed to the same fate as the rest of his family. A true legend but for the sake of their widows and children and grandmother I'd be happier to see him take up as team manager somewhere as long as its not racing.
I have no idea why I didn't know William had died. Just the other day I was watching ROAD and was saying to my husband that William always seemed such a lovely natured chap with no arrogance or aggression. After saying that, and a bit later in the film, I wanted to look something up so I paused the film & went over to google and noticed that William was spoken about in past tense and then when I read Wikipedia, I was made fully aware of William's passing.,I'm gutted.
God rest your gentle soul, William. He was such a quiet man, softly spoken and gentle natured, it was often quite a contrast to see him racing so competitively. I always enjoyed listening to him speak, as he always had a more introspective opinion about his racing, which made him an intensely likeable fellow. His presence is missed greatly. Every April, as i grow older than my childhood icons were when they passed away at the races, the depth of the losses affect me more and more. These are young men in the prime of their lives, and after decades of our brethren grieving in silence, there has been a marked shift in the collective grieving process in the aftermath of Wiliams' death which has brought out much more open discussion about bereavements and the grief from them in racing and its truly wonderful to see. Healing is aided by conversations, and helping each other unpack and process the heartaches. Like the old BT advert used to say, " it's good to talk."
What you said is the truth and total respect to the Dunlop family and thanks for all they have given us and we cheer for that moment and cry for the sad moments that have happened and its the love off the sport
Never forget the day of his crash that sadly lost his buatifull life. I was listening to the race on radio and it came up it was a day i will never forget. My heart broke for William and all the family. Rest peacefully William. 🇮🇪☘
Sharon, for years had wanted to get to Ireland,(from Australia/ especially to see William and Michael race... Sadly we arrived 10 days after he passed away. The only way I could see him was a trip to his grave.
The ultimate experience of my life was road racing .There is nothing like the rush of knowing you are milliseconds away from death or triumph .' Ride hard / die fast ' ...cheat the Reaper .
I didn‘t give any thumb, but maybe some people don‘t understand why these men kill themselves and leave their families behind for racing. I‘m sure I don‘t.
@@panorama4526 No-one expects to die, but if you step outside, there is a risk to everything one may do. The percentage that die in racing is relatively small. I have nearly died a number of times, and have had some serious accident's without even getting on a bike. Mostly, life is a bunch of luck, some win some lose no matter what you do. Most of my best mates take huge risks for a bit of fun, it's human nature.
Such a shame William died. Still have the copy of MCN following Skerries. He was probably about the knock some of the road racing on the head. I don’t know how men with kids do it. Just made of completely different stuff to me.
I would love to see a high budget film on the Dunlop family. It could potentially be the best motorsport film of all time.

You are joking right?
@@thargor6750 ? would be 1000x better than a documentary on your family.

You dirty Sanchez. You dirty.
RIP William & thanks for the memories.
All our hearts go out to the Dunlop family...god speed
R.I.P. William Dunlop !
Brilliant articulate, emotive description of the sport and of the Dunlop family ethos. Thank you for this.

Probably because he isn't remotely famous

It's not about his death, read the title

Well done 🥃
why are there 11 thumbs down
They most likely came here looking to see a crash video I'd imagine. 😒
@@jwoody8 I never thought of that,but sadly I think you are right!

Probably because they cut the story short - watch the last 30 seconds, they cut it off just as he was talking about the Dunlops' losses.
This breaks my heart ...
