Thanks for watching X Games!

To see him cry and actually acknowledge the blessed life he has lead was so amazing. He humbled himself and me.
8:00 jumping onto a flying helicopter with a skateboard and then skydiving back down must be the most badass thing I've ever seen
legend has it that he landed in blunt and then kickflip in.
In which case watch the full video! Dreamland I think it’s called
Well, he put a mega ramp at the Grand Canyon and went for it with a base jump parachute...
Pretty badass too.
That was Danny Way in his helicopter. In the video section he grinds the mega ramp handrail and then does a 720 down it. In his F'n helicopter.
I don’t care what anyone says, that blunt to kickflip is the greatest moment in Xgames history, the whole run is completely insane. Bob burnquist is the goat
Watching it again it is actually a fakie nosegrind to fakie flip out, Bob's the man!!!
Can't really be that great if you did not know or remember what trick he was doing.....
Stuart Peterson No he's talking about the other x games one where he does a blunt to flip out. and the other trick you're referring to he does a fakie 5-0 flip out
Fakie crook fakie flip out
Both you guys are talking about 2 different tricks. One of you is talking about the extension bar and the other is talking about the run that beat Bucky in X Games.
Bobby B is one of my top 3 skaters of all time, no question.
And I love seeing Tony Hawk talk about other skaters like he himself isn't a legend, he's such a humble guy.
Tas Pappas is in my top 3
That whole crew of the original x-games guys, Bob, Bucky, Tony, Andy, Danny..they were they best.
orgulho brasileiro...Q não foi feito pela mídia....foi por méritos Parabéns Bob
LOVE HIS ENERGY. Some people leave me in tears. To live a dream is what life is truly about. This is beautiful.
bob needs to have his own anual Xgames skateboarding tournament there in his home, with all current stars fighting the medals... and he just sitting there with a beer as a judge with hawk at his side
i agree LOL =)
I'd watch.
El Profe Gustavo Hawk, Bob, Lasek
And Danny Way
Agrred!
Ive watched Bob's last run after Bucky at least 30 times and it still blows my mind every time.
blunt to kickflip.....
Same here. I don't skate. I did try it for a while when I was a child. Never even learned kickflip (in my defense, I got a used skateboard from a friend who was to throw it out). Spent like a week of summer vacation to do it. Learned to jump in the air, but then the deck broke and was too poor.
Anyway, that's not the story. I still watch the same run as an inspiration to me. The pure motivation factor is something crazy. Especially the music and Tony in the background makes it somewhat a masterpiece.
There are tricks done in that run that I still have never seen another person do in X Games to THIS DAY LOL that run was incredible to say the least. And it's just a sample of all the mind blowing things Bob has done in his career
every single time
I don't skateboard. But even as someone wholly inexperienced in riding, the first time I saw that 2001 X Games vert run by Bob I knew I watching something special. Must have rewound 20x. I was gobsmacked by the flow, the art, the damn majesty of it.
I've since watched a bunch of other amazing skating vids of greats in the sport, and they're powerful, dynamic, bold & lit. But none have moved me to the level of that one run by Bob.
That's how you know Bob Burnquist is a LEGEND: even dummies outside your sport like me will watch that vid, feel the inspiration & realize they're witnessing a moment of greatness.
This is a great tribute to what BOB has done, but a small one. You guys at X-Games should have give him a proper retirement praise last year. All we had was that small interview at the end of the contest. He deserved better.
Fred Rodrigues It looked to me like he didn’t tell anyone that he was retiring until that moment. I guarantee X Games would have capitalized on his retirement had they known about it to boost their viewers.
Zacpack91 true. But they could have done a little more. He was the last OG of their event. The last one that has competed in every X Games since the very first one in 1995. And he's the all time leading Gold medalist now, beating the late Dave Mirra, another OG, in that respect. He deserved the absolute most they could do, even with their time being little 💯
Light Yagami but that’s why bob chose that moment, nothing the company could have done to make more money and viewers from it, the dudes one of the biggest legends and has his head in the right place
Bob is a damn legend, hands down.
Yeah I live 5 - 10 minutes away from him
Bob... vc é um dos maiores esportistas de todos os tempos do nosso país!! Um orgulho pra nós brasileiros!! Muito obrigado por tudo q vc representa pra nós!!!
você é um verdadeiro Campeão! Bob é Brasil, parabéns por todas as suas conquistas!
This man is an inspiration to me. I don't skate, but I take his words and keep on trying to accomplish my goals in life. I consider myself blessed and I'll keep on going, gotta find my own path.
Brought a tear to my eye, seeing how much of his soul IS skating. This is were all art flows from. Beautiful.
My hero. I remember wanting those white and blue eś shoes he had on during that run in Philly xgames when I was 11. Now as a man near 30 I'm going to go to eBay to try and find them. Y'all pray for me if the wife finds out how much I spent on 20 year old shoes lol
I've been doing the same for some of circa Chad Muska 503s lol
My favorite skateboarder of all time. Being 36 years old and seeing this reminds me that I can still bust a deck out and go for a spin. Thanks Bob!!
Epic! As a Brazilian Pele, Airton Senna and Bob are heroes around here.
Few will Reach such a level of talent, devotion, love, and compromise in Life.
Almost no one here knows that he's Brazilian. Sadly soccer is almost everythig here.
Mcm ?
@Felipe da Silva Tennis- Guga
I was thinking this right now! Brazil has so much talent. Cheers from Portugal!
Grande Bob... aprendi a gostar do skate depois de assistir teus vídeos em 2003... Muito Obrigado por me influenciar nesse esporte, nesse hobby tão incrível Bob! Abraço - Edimilson - SP 🇧🇷
Bob is a legend and I love him...everybody loves him 😎 perseverance, determination and follow through...a true champion 👍👏
My favorite skater growing up. He's who got me into skating and I just kinda stopped after hs but seeing this and knowing he still skates motivates me to pick it back up at 26. Love this guy.
So good to see such a Legend so humble. Godbless your family Bob.
Wow-what a guy and personality❤ I'm litterally crying at the end, thank you Bob for the amazing person you are-much love from Norway❤🇧🇻
É incrível ver a evolução dele, era uma 'simples criança andando de skate', se tornou um dos maiores atletas do mundo!
Bob é e sempre será o melhor skatista.
Tenho 39 anos e acompanhei toda a sua trajetória.
Ele usava e usa o switch como ninguém!
Não existe skatista no Vert que use switch como ele. Não existe.
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Bob is everything
True Legend for Brazilians kids from 80` 90`.
Thank you very much BB!
Just a legend! Guys like him make us feeling proud to be Brazilian!
The Great Bob, The best skateboarder ever!
Bob Burnquist is the definition of the words vision, creativity, innovation and fearless. Just when you think he couldn't possibly come up with something new, there he come with something crazier! Even in slow mo it's hard to comprehend the things he does. When Bob skates, it's his world and were just living in it. Legend 🇧🇷
how can anyone dislike this....shame on you...this man is a living legend....
He's a god, a legend.. Just absolutely and truly amazing. All the love to Bob
Bob... You will always be my hero!
Joguei mto com o bob no tempo do jogo "tony hawk" ps1.. bons tempos :)
Thank u for everything Bob!!! You are a massive legend along with so many great skaters in the world!!! Brazil is so proud of yu and we will always remember you!!! Thanks
This was insanely inspirational
I always played Bob in the Tony Hawk series on my PS1. Those were the good memories
Watching this a second time, still getting tears
Bob is the GOAT in skateboarding. Hands down!!!!
Bob got true bling . He is 1 of my favorite sk8ers and always use him in Pro sk8er . thanks for all the best moment's in sk8boarding history✌
Happy I met him and he showed a group of kids Menikmati at Woodward before it was out to public...His E’s’ shoe was premiering at the same time and it was right after his best trick win with the fakie five-o kickflip out on the over coping bar.
I was always a Lasek fan; but I gotta say, that vert run in 2001 was INSANE.
A true legend!! This was so inspiring!!
He sums up skateboarding in one sentence .. They said no i said Yes
Bob Burnquist took his own path and became a living legend
Just saying, Cause most people don’t catch it, But the half loop transfer, He did that SWITCH! Bob is one of the gnarliest dudes to have ever touched a skateboard. Inspiration to many, And many more in the years to come. His name will forever be a staple in the big, Lengthy book of skateboarding!
The man has this incredible insight and is humble and grateful......a true hero
Man I remember watching some of those xgames vert runs. That was some intense competition back in the day. What a treat to witness a true skateboard legend 🙏👍
Maior respeito ao trabalho do Bob pro Skateboard, grande skatista!
Congrats to Bob on his career. I look up to the greats and he's one of the best. Thanks Bob
Great montage. Great material. The best skater. Cheers Bob.
EDIT: Whats name of last tune?
The golden era of skateboarding was when vert ruled and guys like Burnquist, Hawk, Lasek, MacDonald, and Glifberg were around.
Templeton, Thomas , Reynolds, Rowley, Song
Burnquist and hawk are still around
And Danny Way
Burnquist, Lasek, MacDonald, and Glifberg all skated X Games in 2017. You just turned your back on Vert long before. The truth hurts, but YOU were part of the problem.
@@joesmith8222 Those guys were all about 50 years old at that point. And the only skateboarding I still watch is the vert or big air.
Great job putting this together. Def my fav. New he was something special right away. Ground breaking innovative fearless skater! Continued Blessings Bob!
Bob is the reason I’m afraid of vert ramps but I’m always hooked on the television when bob enters a competition
Incrível , inesquecível
I remember seeing him do some crazy nollie kickflip to a one footed nose crooked grind on a huge vert rail after that I admit he is the best to ever be on a skateboard handsdown
Amazing! Bob is probably my favourite vert skater EVER
Bob, parabéns pelo seu trabalho ao longo dos anos, vc merece!
He is the reason I started skateboarding. Respect to Tony but Bob was my household name growing up , the one I looked up to most and inspired me to push myself. Then came Mike V and Danny Way between the 3 I might not of ever tried even a fragment of what I have if not seeing those guys skate and push themselves and limits of the sport. True heros in the industry.
Bob é Toni os melhores de todos os tempos
I remember watching this live at the time what a gnarly moment
I absolutely love this man.
Hope he comes out of semi retirement to compete in Japan Olympics 2021 for Brazil
if they happen after covid
Ty Bob for the moments and battles at X
Grande Bob!!!! Tu és um ser ímpar.
God bless you!
Blessed to have watched you for so many years! CHEERS BOB!!!!!! much love
I am discovering only today. I have of him before, but never saw any videos. It is incredible. Such a gifted Man. The Johann Sebastian Bach of Vert (for those who know how giftedand hard worker was JS Bach). Incredible!
🖐🏼🖐🏼🖐🏼
2021 .lenda viva do skatebording
Go Brazil!!! amazing.
Bob is a icon living keep ripping luv and respect
you are blessed bro with a talent that most of the world would never had.congrats on a mean az x game carier bro.
Loved when he was in eS and loved how he always skated switch. Probably monumental in my influence as a skateboarder!!!!
The Man , the Myth & SK8Legend!! He & Danny Way are from another planet.... The accomplishments these men have obtained go above & beyond. The bar has been set higher because of Mr. Bob Burnquist!! Just like what Rodney Mullen , Marc Gonz & Natas did for the innovation of the urban environment of street SK8ING --Bob took what was thought to be impossible --did it switch & made it into a reality , right before our eyes!!
It is your name they remember because you were the one who appeared on the tv news.
That is your legacy Bob.
An impact to those who don't even watch skateboarding.
A legend you are
Will never forget that switch nose grind to flip out on best trick back in like 99 or 2000 that shits so hard!
Bob and rondney Mullen my fav sk8ters
He was always my favourite in the first tiny hawks game....love that bucket hat he wore 🤙🏼
queria que tivesse legendas em português
God bless you Bob, you are truly a Legend!
One of my faves growing up. I got to meet him as a kid when I went to Hawk's 1st Boom Boom Huck Jam
Any one know the name of the last track played? 8:31
Oh man! that's great and beautiful video part. Bob Monster!
At 4:17 when Bob blunts the extension I think of his THPS1 video game part! When I first started skateboarding the only vids I could watch were the videos from the game. Good times n good memories!
Bob eterno. Está na história entre os maiores!
The legend!
Bob's switch skating was mind blowing.
Ive always liked Bob as a skater but after watching this video ive got so much more respect for him as a person.
Happy to see you guys fixed the "TONT HAWK" 😂
Another amazing "BEING" as usual, really love this Mini-Doc Series, especially with legends like Bob!
Yeah...I wrote that comment
Always my favorite character to play in the thps games
Merci bob 👍
Tony Pushed skateboarding into the mainstream and helped pave the path for the best vert skater to ever drop in.
From São Paulo, here goes my tears of gratitude and admiration for this hero.
Such a huge idol! Monster! The best one! 💪👊
Bob............ Bob we love you. Thanks for not listening to your father. Bet he is eating his words now... Your a true legend in my eyes.
Bob the GOAT. 2023 and still watching vids of him. And if I'm here in 2043, I still will be. Love this man to death. He is a legend immortalized. Wish many blessings for him and his family.
LEGEND!
Lenda! Monstro! Robert Dean da Silva Burnquist!

We love you Bob #respect #legend
Bobest! Insano! Demais!
Shaun White sighting 0:57. It's crazy that he's so successful at both sports. This was one of my favorite X-games to watch.
1:37 Ueda, another legend.
