I remember this and at the time this was so badass it’s awesome but side by side with modern times it looks pathetic I’m not taking nothing from thees guys just pointing out how far along the sport has come it’s crazy 😜
@@nickgrosvenor6936 for sure crazy how far the fmx has progressed over the years went form doing a single backflip being a big winning factor to nwo people have pulled of quad backflips and most of the riders in fmx doing a double backflip atleast every run. crazy
mulishafmxxx actually never heard of deeds of flesh but since you informed me of that, i looked up that song and like it. Its similar to early cannibal corpse or six feet under which i like so thanks
98 I was a sophomore in high school and remember this. Crazy to see how far this sport has come. These tricks back in 98 look awful by today’s standards
first time I seen metal militia was at bam margaras house with gwar doing a concert there wind was blowing like crazy I think it was when deagen got extremely hurt ? I may be wrong but 🤷👍
This is 1996 not '98. Edit: They have Deegan 22 years old but Hart 23 even though he's a year younger. So it's either '96 or '98 depending on whose age they got right.
😅😅😅😅did deegan just pull a no handed helmet touch and get points?....did hart really do 1 nothing and 3 supercross airs in a comp...before crashing into the camera man
In the beginning of freestyle, a lot of the guys came from racing, including Deegan. Never seen Deegan ghost ride his bike over the finish line after winning? 🤔
This is the most painfully 90s thing I have ever seen. I love it
Heck yeah lol. I have the full event on VHS somewhere. I need to find it.

To be fair Deegan is the only one who never grew from here.
Big no handed helmet grab🤣
It's so crazy to see this and think about how far the sport has come over the years!
It’s so funny how things have changed so dramatically in freestyle. I love seeing the progression since Deegan started it until now 2023.
I looked at my watch once mid air, circa 2001. Almost gained a sponsorship
😂
2:45 that superman sets grab just says how nostalgic this video is..cuz now days superman seat grab is just insaine
look at the extension hahaha
Justin Ripley haha yup! Larry still had rad no footed can cans back then.
I was going to say the same! 🤣😂
🤣🤣🤣 hanging way off the bike
It's crazy how rapidly Deegan and the rest of the sport progressed, backflips were what, 5 years later?
Brings back memories of LBZ , SMP and MM !! It’s crazy how much the sport has evolved.
“It’s all about LBZ”
how bout that superman seat grab compared to now 🤣🤟🤟
Now people sigh when the third rider in a row pulls off a double backflip 😁
Aldous Orwell lol yup. It’s insane these days
Holy shit these tricks didn’t seem near as lame back then!
Jay 0711 lol hell ya
You probably weren't born yet😂
“That’s a big no handed helmet grab”!! Lol
Massive
@ 2:46 "The extension is ridiculous"........lmfao things have changed so much
overdafencejc haha you bet man.
Nostalgia.
Stephen G hell ya!
Back when you could get sponsored for doing heel clickers.... I miss those days.
Same year I graduated highschool. Good times...
Same bro. So funny. Glory days
Deegan riding to Slayer and Hart riding to Deftones with Link.... video perfection
Jeremiah Cook Link rode to Deeds of Flesh “Gradually Melted” 🤘🏻
mulishafmxxx actually never heard of deeds of flesh but since you informed me of that, i looked up that song and like it. Its similar to early cannibal corpse or six feet under which i like so thanks
Cary hart actually pulled off all the shit deegan would talk. Leveling camera men and shit
98 I was a sophomore in high school and remember this. Crazy to see how far this sport has come. These tricks back in 98 look awful by today’s standards
I was a sophomore as well in 98. It sure is crazy to see what it has become.
DeeGaN The GeneraL #38🔥. Now it’s #238 DangeRBoY DeeGaN
Some of this wouldn’t fly in today’s Xgames haha I miss these days
Nothing like today's tricks!
jared buchholz No leggers kick ass lol
❤
Fuck yeah the old days
IS THAT MY BOY DENNY STEPHENSON? YEP!
You bet!
"Alcohol, deftones, and motorbikes do not mix" 😂
I know, what a crock of shit. That is the best mixture unless you substitute Tool for deftones, thats a cocktail for backflips
Murica FYeah!
😂
Just the opening with sepultura was good
“Is that safe?” 🤣
No leggers were very dangerous back then lol
The reply is what got me.. people were so much more uninhibited back then.
If only they knew what was to come of FMX!!! 👊🏼😎🤘
Robert Yoder Seriously! I miss these days though.
Brian and haiden and Hali are legions now
Damn, Danger Boy looks just like him...
Good riding
Classic kids these days need to watch this. No sissy boys
Yeah helmet grab for men.
I wanna see the rest of this😂
Cole Zitterkopf haha I have it on VHS. I need to digitize it.
mulishafmxxx serious man! Shits gold
@@mulishafmxxx please we need to see the whole thing
@@geometromonkey working on that!
@@geometromonkey the entire show is now on my channel. Go check it out!
Because the landing was the best spot to stand lol
3:10 is that dude Dave Wyndorf from Monster Magnet? Looks like him! 👍
It sure is!
@2:45 Superman Seat grab extension is rediculous. Wow we've come so far
Denny Stephenson is awesome.
Hells ya!
first time I seen metal militia was at bam margaras house with gwar doing a concert there wind was blowing like crazy I think it was when deagen got extremely hurt ? I may be wrong but 🤷👍
Yea he almost died on that crash, for real. He talks about it on the documentary Bloodline, The Brian Deegan Story
This is 1996 not '98.
Edit: They have Deegan 22 years old but Hart 23 even though he's a year younger. So it's either '96 or '98 depending on whose age they got right.
MTV Sports and Music Festival 2. November 7th 1998 ;)
@@mulishafmxxx so they got Deegan's age wrong by 2 years ;)
@@MatthewC137 good eye! I never caught that
Then pastrana came and showed everyone up at like 15 years old
He sure did. Went off!
What tournament was this?
1998 MTV Sports and Music Festival
@@mulishafmxxx awesome thanks!
😅😅😅😅did deegan just pull a no handed helmet touch and get points?....did hart really do 1 nothing and 3 supercross airs in a comp...before crashing into the camera man
Haha it actually happened. It was a rider judged event though.
wanted to see Link, wtf. awesome seeing Corey hit the camera man though. lol
Matthew Guzek I’m still blown away with Deegan’s Superman seat grab extension lol
Helmet grab 😂
haha cant say the things Deegan said then.
It's hilarious to see this I bet his younger self would think his older self is a dip💩😂
Na he’d think my dream happens. Deegan was always the mouth and Carey was the show.
Now the riding has the evil attitude and the riders are nice as fuck.
@thedeegans
This is really where it all started?
I typed out a history lesson but deleted it. It was kinda the beginning yes lol.
Pastrana should have won that but they gave it to Micky.
Yeah definitely
BIG no handed helmet grab. Haha
Lol. HUGE no handed helmet grab if you ask me
Lmfao is this safe thanking your hands off the bike in the middle of jump
“No handed helmet grab”
Lol
Nowadays dudes are double backflipping
I feel old lol
They where so Fake back then... listen to the way Deegan talked hahaha
Did everyone see the no hander helmet grab? Fuuuuuuck brah…
McGrath would of smoked them in ‘98.
This is so funny and kinda cringe. I can see why Link hated when the competitions started. Kinda whack. But the sport has come a long way.
Never been a fan of deegan.
This is when Travis was already doing backflips, embarrassing the "malisha"
This was prior to the backflip.
Worst commentators ever!!
Lol rob zombie, limp bizkit and white kids with attitudes on dirt bikes. Late 90s early 2000s in a nutshell
this was about as good as deegan got
Gay... How would they do in an actual motox race? Whatever.
In the beginning of freestyle, a lot of the guys came from racing, including Deegan. Never seen Deegan ghost ride his bike over the finish line after winning? 🤔
Freestyle has came a long looonnngggg fucking way since this shits insane how fast it progressed no footers and helmet grabs lol
Instead of a big gay he’s only a little gay then.
Helmet grab 😂
“Big” no handed helmet grab! Lol
