- Ryan Scheckler at 13, competing on X-Games
- Me at 13 and at 30. Playing Tony Hawk's Pro Skater
Why isn't Ryan in the remake?
@@innocentrage1 He wasnt in the original games. He joined the series in Underground 2
Me too, but I'm not 30 yet.
Ryan is 30 now. ;)
Fact
Bob's vert run will go down as the best run ever. ! Hands down .
Bob's run was awesome but when I saw White's run I could not believe my eyes
Seriously.
The most beautiful representation of a perfect skateboard run. Even bob new it at the end when he raised his board
Facts!
@@Tomek666 Love and respect Bob's run, but White's just makes me more excited.
I remember watching Jake Brown fall live. I legit thought he died. Then he got up and walked it off like it was a regular bail. The most insane X Games moment for me
same here, crazy
Same, I thought he wasn’t gunna make it. It was huge!
No doubt, most insane thing I’ve seen on live tv
It hit me hard man.... Totally unexpected.
Watching him free falling crazy!!!
This was my first time ever watching the x games I was shooked asf
Imagine having to make a run after watching a guy fall 40ft to the ground.. insane!
Imagine fuckin walking away though whaaat
Straya
They should go the extra mile and add nets away from the coping to catch them so something like this never happens again. Regardless dude has buck 🔥
Bob said in an interview that all he was trying to think was "well, that happens once in a 1000 runs, so statistically it is highly unlikely to happen again today"
Those shoes exploding away still gives me chills
It was the huge whiplash that concerned me the most. I've never seen someone's neck flex like that.
I had to look away when i saw what was coming and fastforward to next clip with my hand over the screen.. even after that i had to pause to get over what i did not see.... that was brutal fall
totally forgot about seeing that that year. still feels the same.
Because I think a lot if us register a big enough fall/collision to rip both your shoes clean off usually means death.
@@michaelbronson7410 yeah, i can see that.
Jake Brown fell 4 and a half stories. It's amazing to me that he wasn't carried out on a stretcher.
Nowadays absolutely no way they would let him walk after that even if he was able and wanting to. They would stretcher him in case internal bleeding etc..
Or even pronounced dead at the scene
Aussies are made of something completely different from us normal mortals
i just looked at the list of injuries he had... broken wrist and vertebrae, bruised lungs, bruised liver, ruptured spleen and a concussion. i mean... i would not be walking haha!!
That man slammed so hard and his shoes flew off, stood up he built different
I always forget what good of a skater Shawn White is...
Who else dominates an entire X-Sport Discipline like Snowboard Halfpipe like forever and wins X-Games Gold in a completely different sport...
OUTSTANDING...
Yes double gold for snowboard superpipe and skateboard vert
hes also an Olympic gold medalist
aren't there some similarities?
Yeah, that run as insane too :O I didn’t even know he was a skateboarder.
He's the really Otto from Rocket power
Jake Brown with the gnarliest crash I’ve ever seen to this day. I was in my living room watching this and couldn’t believe my eyes, glad he’s still with us today!! 😭
I love how they say they got the best medical staff on site and then have him walk off XD. He is lucky to be alive and could have had sever internal bleeding. He is throughly tough!
God like went into him that day like I’ve never known a man to fall 50 feet and get up. Like he fell from a building.
man i remember seeing that, my step dad said he was dead, i was in tears man
Caleb Taylor you know remember jake brown appear on ea skate 2
The dude literally plummeted from 45+ feet from the sky and survived. Dude is invincible
I don't think at the time it happened I had a TRUE understanding of how insane Bob's vert run was. Seeing it back....just incredible.
It stands the test of time very well.
The slam heard round the world. I remember watching that and thinking the worst but when he got up and walked away. Unreal.
Besides wrestling I don't know anything else with that much drama in one night thinking a skater died.
Bob Burnquist's vert run gives me chills every time. What a run, a pure and clean flow of perfect skateboarding technique and style. Proud to be brazilian man
The announcers had already assumed it was over. NO ONE expected that. To that point, I had seen every second of every XGames broadcast... Never saw a run like that before, never will again. I freaked out worse for that than the 9.
The way EVERYBODY lost their minds was totally fair.
(E dá orgulho pra caraio ver essa corrida do Bob e a Letícia arregaçando mesmo machucada)
That was so wild
That is the definition of “Locked in!!!” Bob was in the zone on that run
"He's gonna do that bob thing"
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING BOB?!?" I loved this run.
I cant believe that guy survived that fall and was able to walk. I had to google the injuries.
According to his wikipedia
"On 2 August 2007, during the Summer X Games 2007 Big Air section, Brown fell 45 feet (14 m) onto the bottom of the ramp below. Brown's injuries were a fractured wrist, fractured vertebrae, bruised liver, bruised lung, ruptured spleen and concussion.[6] After several minutes of unconsciousness, Brown walked off the ramp surface with assistance."
Surprised his massive testicles didnt cushion his fall
Up
He felt on his back and still walked away holly f
9
Solitare
Jeez a ruptured spleen? Sounds mad serious for some reason
i don't care what anyone says, but Tony Hawk, doing a 900 in a normal vert, is on of the best things ever seen in skateboarding.
And Bob's run offcourse, plus, just about any Rodney Mullen trick.
Woke
@@youtubesucks1821 fuckin wot?
A 14 year old did a 900 in all 4 of his runs in Japan 2023 .. tony was there watching
"kids these days grow so fast, and spin as fast too"@@cm2485
I'm here for the classic Bob Burnquest vert run.
Man, that clip still gives me the chills all over my body. Especially when he hits that last blunt to kickflip
Yes still one of the best runs
@@maartenzilverberg yes the blunt fakie kickflip was my favorite trick when I was a kid because of Bob Burnquist.
Still is one of my favs
Imagine making history with a 1260 and not taking Gold lol straight robbed
watching that switch frontside/backside air is what gave me chills. so much style. as well as that fakie half cab blunt.
7:51 Tony Hawk - “that’s the best run we’ve seen all day, I don’t care what the judges say. It’s the best”
Can’t argue with the goat 🐐
He's been in skateboarding long enough to know that the judges are often questionable to say the least LOL
Man i miss seeing Shaun White skate
I think we all do.
He is like Shaun Palmer in Downhill... a Rockstar!
His run is just incredible!
You can have him back, we don’t want him in snowboarding (at least i don’t, he doesn’t have nice style)
Go Thrashers!
Love Shaun White’s vert run. His power and speed going into those tricks was insane. Those grabs and the position he grabbed the board was insane. Bob’s run was also crazy. He just kept going. Like the run felt like it was never going to stop. The zen was real.
He is the best snowboarder of all time so its easy to forget how amazing he was at vert skating.
Still can't believe the 1260 didn't take gold
They should just have separate medals for Gap, Vert, and combo. The 1260 was incredible and a perfect score on the vert, but combined with the lackluster gap trick it never stood a chance.
it was impressive because that trick was new, but technically he do it in a mega ramp so not that hard enough than do it in a vert ramp like the 900 of tony hawk
He didn't get gold because that was 2 trick competition. His first trick was too simple, and judge must be objective to make a score. If his first trick is better. He'll get Platinum medal instead
well he did basically nothing over the gap...
I know I watched the video but I don't remember specifics, all I remember is a guy in an awesome shirt almost doing an insanely sick gap trick
that 900 still gives me the chills watching it....i remember clearly watching his multiple attempts and then just setting my vcr to watch it in the morning, saying to myself " he won't land it", then the next morning watching him make it!!! i live in CT and i missed my train to work in NYC just watching it over and over for about 20 minutes...HISTORIC MOMENT for sure!!!....that BOB run is forever the best single run Ive seen...90% switch!!!!!
@zen view yeah… they say Tas Pappas did it first. 🤷🏾♂️
Hawk's 900 is THE xgames icon awakening, Rock On!
I just wish he hadn't put his hand down on the landing.
Bob’s Vert run in 2001, Nyjah’s Hardflip over the hubba in 2013, Mitchie Brusco’s 1260 in 2019, & Tony Hawk’s 900 in 1999 have got to be some of the greatest skateboarding moments in X Games history
Tony's 900 was my first time ever watching the games. It was incredible.
Gui Khury's 1080 in 2021!
Bob was in flow state the whole run! Gives me chills to this day.
Ultra Instinct
12:58 is the single greatest cameraman positioning I’ve ever seen 😆🤣😂🤣😆 Dude was about to break his knees 🦵🦵
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
I remember the Bob's vert final! And still hearing the announcers lose their minds and not being able to speak was all you needed to hear! Utterly breathtaking run!
Bob Burnquist is my all time favorite. Watching that guys is like magic.
I'm here for the classic Bob Burnquest vert run.
As a Brazilian I'm obligated to say I'm Brazilian so Bob's run has that extra sweet taste of pride hahaha
Bob's vert run, still unbelievable and still the best I've ever seen.
12:50 you can see someone absolutely freaking out on top of the ramp and I love it
12:58 HE ACTUALLY GOT DOWN ON HIS KNEES TO CLAP, HE KNEW HE WAS WITNESSING HISTORY
so many great moments.. i remember watching live when Jake Brown slammed and i thought i just watched someone die.. glad hes still with us after that gnarly of a slam
Doesn't matter how many times I see Jake Brown's slam, it will never fail to send a shiver right through me when he lands. How tf did he not only survive it, but get up and manage to walk?!
Bro, the Bob Burnquist run was so legendary to me. I remember watching it live and the next day it was all my friends and I were talking about at school. That commentary was so perfect too. That moment will always stick with me, the most out of any vert skate moment I have ever seen.
That heelflip undergrab of Shaun White is so, so gorgeous.
13:24. Seeing this live on TV when I was 12 years old was one of the most heart-pounding moments I've ever witnessed on TV. I was petrified.
Same
I was watching X games when he threw down that run. I still get chills when I watch it. Bob is so special. The creativity, the skill, the commitment..he embodies skateboarding.
I remember watching Shaun Whites Vert Run live and I just had goosebumps the entire time I couldn’t believe my eyes. The standing ovation, Tony Hawk calling it the best run of the night, the pressure everything just felt so perfect
Bobs run still gives me chills every time. So smooth, so zen, so switch 🧘🏻
This should’ve been like at least an hour long
It could've been four hours...
@@XGames Should've*
@@XGames id watch for sure
@@XGames Yo, X, we're all waiting
So many great x games moments. Tony hawks 900 holds a special place in my heart. Just insane
I still get chills watching Bob’s vert run. Straight epic
After watching Tony’s 900 again, I must say we’ve come a loooong way. So good to watch and reminisce all the good memories in X games 🤙
It's truly unbelievable how that guy was able to get up on his feet right after that crash.
Ryan is so humble! He was tempted to insult the competition but just just stayed modest. Respect ✊🏻.
I’ve been sad as of corona virus and I cannot go on holiday to Canada this summer to skate this made me really happy to watch
Hey m8, i live in Canada. I'll go out for a sk8 today and do it while thinking of you.
every time i see that clip of tony doing the 900 i get so emotional. his determination, the support he got from the crowd, the other skaters reaction, plus his sheer joy of it. it's perfect in every way.
1) Bob going God-Mode;
2) Jake Brown proves why helmets are a good idea;
3) Everything else.
Bob's Fakie 5-0 to kickflip from 2000 should have been on here. Very underrated moment.
I've never skated in my life but that Bob run on vert gave me goosebumps man
oh my gosh! seeding so many of these moments and get goosebumbs all over. How i forgot all these years
Prod and Nyjah were definitely rivals at one point. Back to back at competitions
I remember watching Bob's run and literally being speechless. It will always be one of the moments I remember.
I remember watching almost all of these growing up. I'm almost tearing up thinking about how positive an influence skateboarding was for me, even to this day at 38 years old. I'll never forget the Burnquist run, that first 900, and unfortunate Jake Brown hitting the flat so hard he tore internal organs and both shows flew off.
I knew Bob's run would be on here, i never get tired of watchin it!
The moment you realize Ryan Shecjler is in his 30's... lol
Time flies by so fast
Efff
Yo, don't you dare remind us we're all getting old
He's 31
I still can’t believe they let Jake walk off. I mean, it’s nice for the crowd to see, but medically a big no.
Thank you! I thought exactly the same!!
For sure. They'd never do that nowadays. Huge risks if he was bleeding internally
I believe he fractured a vertebrae?
"Look I know you might die and all but the next guy really needs to skate on this ramp."
technically medical staff cant force you to do anything if your conscious and able to make sound judgement. im pretty sure all participants sign a waiver before hand releasing x-games and its staff of any legal issues in cases like this. still would've been nice to see him put his pride aside. it was a pride thing, nothing to do with the crowd
This brought a tear to my eye. Thank you.
I love x-games, this video was awesome. Thanks for posting
Sk8 4 Ever !!!
Adam Celadin YESSSS
Tony doing that 9 was a real moment in my life tbh
I keep rewinding to watch that guy at 12:49 becoming absolutely *_DELIRIOUS_* during Bob's vert run.
Mitchie’s 1260 was SO underrated, it should’ve been viral
Remember 1999, my mate told me he had something for me to watch, at the time I didn't even know much about skateboarding or even heard of the X-Games, Vert Best trick was the recording, sat there watching (VHS back in the day), feeling the vibe of wanting to see this person I've never heard of to land this trick, the energy from the people dragged me in to it more and little did I know that seeing this happen would change my life. Going from a kid, barely knowing any one, the skateboard brought me close with people, my own little family and we'd skate day in, day out, worked and campaigned to get skateparks built in my home town, gave a light on the sport within our area.
Those times will not be forgotten as I've moved on, but it was all down to watching a video, of a man called Tony Hawk landing the 900, who soon became a house hold name with the launch of the THPS series that everyone I knew wanted to play. That will always be my defining moment that got me into skateboarding, seeing the energy and the friendships, then I came across Rodney Mullen vs Daewon Song and I was hooked on my love for skateboarding, lets hope the Olympics after all has gotten better gives more entertain to those seeing skateboarding for the first time, as much as that one moment gave me.
Knowing what The 900 did for skateboarding, definitely puts it at the top of this list.
Same. After seeing that on TV, is when I started skating and it changed my life. Awesome to see your story!
Bob was in a state of unstoppable flow
Of course the 900 as the finale! You can see how excited everyone was, hyping him up. They threw their egos and performance to the side, because they wanted to see skate history happen. When Tony finally lands it, and they rush over to him, you just know that is true sportsmanship coming from everybody. An amazing thing to see.
Great compilation, Jake Brown is literally warrior huge props to that guy. Fell 45 feet, unconscious for almost 10 minutes and still got up and walked away, absolutely incredible.
"Brown's injuries were a fractured wrist, fractured vertebrae, bruised liver, bruised lung, ruptured spleen and concussion."
Man that slight adjustment at the end of Jake Browns fall saved his life
Imagine if Brighton’s birthday was a day later would be insane seeing a preteen win. Shout out to Brighton
So glad the Bob burnquist xgames run was put in! Great list
Tks so much much much X Games!
I remember watching Jake take that fall and being horrified. Then to watch him get up and walk away. I couldn’t believe what I saw. That dude is a MONSTER.
I Swear to god i almost cried through the Whole thing
That run from 11:54 on is absolutely ruthless. Together with the hyped up casters, beautiful!
Also, seeing that meter at 14:08 fill up on the left side is very funny in a dark way.
Bob's Vert Run!! I watched it live and still have it recorded on a VHS tape somewhere. Awesome!
Classic
Ryan was so chill. He literally said they probably want to kill me but it’s all good
And that just proves why Tony Hawk had a rollercoaster named after him
Best moment is probably watching Tonys 900 live...but also in 1996 Tony jumping into the water off the ramp was a great memory from when i skated as a kid
It’s unhealthy how hyped up I get and then cry from the rush
Throwing a skateboard into the crowd is so sketchy lol
its brazil and her hometown at that i promise they did not care 😂😂
It's shame they didn't film the fight in the crowd to claim it.
She"s so hot 🔥
@@shorey66 they did tho
I think shes the one who celebrated too early and lose to a japanese girl. 😁😁😁
Tony Hawk the GOAT of Skateboarding, and even at the age of 50 still can fly.
That Jake Brown slam is enough for me to never want to get on a ramp that big. Scary stuff man, wild that he walked away like that.
these clips just make me wanna keep grinding and get better
This makes me want to skate already but I haven’t gotten my board yet :/
2008 Skateboard Big Air, Danny Way landing impossible tricks after a broken ankle and Bob Burnquist winning last minute gold in tears. 100% Had to be in the list, just saying 🤙🏽
Danny Way is king and even if its not in this video it will live in the hearts of all skaters. I'm taking every run speech still sends chills, that dude is an animal
100% ESPN needs to get on that for the next update
I know that 900° was Monumental but Bob's finals run is Incredible
kickflip frontside boardslide, i just love skating.. All these names on the tricks :D Darkslide and SO much more.
i cried a bit while seeing Shaun Whites win and pure hapiness. Thats so beautiful
...
Bob's so good. You can hardly tell when he's not skating switch!
Tony: "This is the best day of my life, I swear to God!"
30 seconds after seeing his wife and kid
eyeroll...
But they were WITH him
I know nothing about skating, but it's so nice to see so much camaraderie between the riders. Graceful in defeat.
That Jake Brown slam is so hard to watch. Not only is it brutal, but the pure elation in the voice of the announcers that quickly drops away as everyone is seeing what's about to happen.
But then, since we know he's okay, the "I can't believe he nailed the 720" as Jake Brown lay motionless on the ground is darkly hilarious.
jake brown man. guy took a skyscraper fall and walked it off.... boss
The craziest thing for me was always seeing shaun white be an ACTUAL beast at skateboarding. Gnarliest transition of sports
snowboarding and skating is too similar
Bob burnquist was my favorite in thps 1 and 2 his tricks were awesome 👍😎
The fact that he couldn't have landed ANY other way and walked away... that finally turn at the last second to save his shoulder, collarbone, pelvis fractures... insane. Prolly led to the vertebral fracture, but they are fairly robust despite what hollywood wants us to think. Medically speaking - that was an insanely well done landing.
13:05 R.I.P Biker Sherlock
I’m learning how to skate I watch theses alot
Tony Hawk's 900 will forever be the best moment of the x Games.
I am never not amazed by Bob's run, its legit, possibly the greatest thing I've ever seen in any sport, and I don't care what is happening, even sexy time, if that run comes on TV, that is 100% my focus, because it's THAT GREAT
Inside my dreams I am Ryan Sheckler. 😂
In my dreams Im Jake Brown
You rarely see flip-tricks from the girls. I dont want to disrespect them and it was a solid run, but "top moments of skateboarding"?
Love to see it 👏
*Jake Brown falls 40 feet onto flat ground and is unconscious*
Tony: "I can't believe he just hit that 720..." 😭😭
