its the hat. that hat has seen some SHIT and you can't fake that. Also his hair is wet like he's about to film a scene where he was sweating or running etc lol. not to mention he's dressed like an NPC.

Really when you think about it though you're already in fucking pain you might as well go for it while you're already in pain or maybe on some pain medicine
when I had a root canal treatment I didn’t do any physical exercises for a whole week, mainly because I didn’t wanna risk it to get a dry socket. but yeah the first 2-3 days where a pain in the ass.
Definitely not underrated lol, he was enormous for years, he just wasn't one for being the center of attention. But for sure always got the credit he deserved
Then his biggest regret should be not wearing a helmet, especially after he learned about brain injury. EDIT: I didn’t mean to sound like such a dick. Heath is a damn good skater. I was surprised he’d taken so many hits to the head and continued to skate with that intensity. I hope he’s ok.
He should be, there are really serious consequences to repeated concussions, especially when you don't let yourself recover. It kind of breaks my heart to think that all of these skaters that I idolized when I was younger will probably have severe repercussions to the lack of knowledge about traumatic brain injuries back then.
I’ve been watching skating for YEARS! Your kickflip on the triple set is the best leap of faith I’ve ever seen! Love you bro, you are actually my fav! Seriously, love you heath. Much love!!!!
@@itachi1341212that's only because Tony agreed to be in the Klein Epicly Later'd.... why Heath was a part of that deal, I don't know, but they mention in that interview that Heath is doing it only as a favor to Tony
I was in my skating prime when Birdhouse Ravers came out in 1993 and I saw HK for the first time - he was like 3 feet tall and doing kinked rails and tech shit I'd never seen before. He was like a cyborg, a legend already. Freaked me out. His part in The End freaked me out even more. IMO, the most stylish gnarl-skater of all time.
Heath is a legend he did so many tricks that had never been done before. I still remember my friend Blain and I seeing him 360 flip lip the ten rail. We watched from a distance cause he yelled at my buddy for being to close. He was one of if not my favorite skater before that day after seeing him skate in person I was psyched
I think we like the slams because it shows that you’re the same as us/any skater. You take hard falls, but you still keep getting up and skating and keep at it until you “complete” it. That’s what skatings all about whether you’re an amateur or professional! 😉👍🏼🖖🏼
A lot of us can sympathize for sure. Personally I've also gotten a concussion, surgery on both wrists and left ankle, and I'm kind of disappointed thinking I'd be better at skating than I am now. Feelings of guilt and regret, trying to keep the love for skating rather than like an addiction or pride
An absolute legend such a gnarly skater. One of my all time favs, sucks that he hit his head so much I pray it doesn't affect him too badly in the future.
surprised he didn't talk about that super steep rail he was trying to lipslide from the Sight Unseen credits. there's just endless clips of his shoulder getting destroyed at the bottom of that thing.
When I first started skateboarding I didn’t have any vids to watch other than the vids on THPS! During mid game they had these big screens that would play clips that weren’t in any of the other vids. I would stop and just watch them but it wasn’t till now that I realized one of the bails was Kirchart bailing at the train bridge!
The reason why we like your slams is because you got up and did the tricks after or atleast kept pushing and that is skateboarding Heath is a true representation of what skateboarding should be one of the best no doubt
This is why I stopped skateboarding in adulthood, lol. Wouldn't trade it for anything, though. All kids should get on a skateboard and go big and get hurt while they are still resilient. Kirchart was definitely one of my favs growing up. I haven't thought of him in a while, this was a fun reminder.
I broke my collar bone once, and although it was an extreme break where it split entirely, that was the worst broken bone I’ve ever had by far (never broke a femur or anything obviously, but the collar bone makes it impossible to sleep normally or move your upper body and it’s pretty brutal).
I remember that line in the opening of This is Skateboarding. OOF! The line is smooth and then BAM; stuck on the ledge and just fell to the concrete. DAMN!
Always remember loving his Tentacles of Destruction part. Then Rolling Thunder came out and blew the lid off. All the sudden everyone knew who Heath was. That part was groundbreaking. Kickflip back lip on a rail. That wasn't done back then. And Berra with the kf 50/50 on a rail in the same part? Great memories.
@@cian_sk8s512 yeah kind of indirectly, it was Shane Cross, a gnarly aussie lad, they were on a bike most likely wasted and with Ali speeding up like a maniac and they crashed, Shane passed out and Ali was in comma for a while, it was life changing for him.
Heath you're trippin on the whole not being good thing! Seriously! When I hear heath kirchart the very first thing that comes to mind is that insane kickflip front 50 down that blue handrail in the Emerica video! Such a legend my dude!
Favorite skater growing up, the Heath Kirchart X Jeremy Klien video skating in on fire suits aw man we miss you Heath! You pushed skating's limits to what it is today and then left like a fuckin' boss, much respect!
His battle scars are pretty damn scary. Hate hearing these head injuries are really surfacing now. Dude is a fucking legend tho, absolute beast machine
He looks like he’s straight outta the walking dead
Yo Pccy he looks fake for some reason
pablics 07 like computer generated?
This is accurate, he'd team up with Daryl for sure xD
cool story shitstain
its the hat. that hat has seen some SHIT and you can't fake that. Also his hair is wet like he's about to film a scene where he was sweating or running etc lol. not to mention he's dressed like an NPC.
*Heath Kirchart Is A LEGEND* 💯
for sure
Go away good God TH-cam skaters are so annoying.
Dr. Skeletor Nigel was around way before TH-cam. Have some damn respect.

fuck off
I guess when you're Heath Kirchart you just decide to grind a 20 stair hubba the same day you get a root canal... hhaha this dude is unreal!
LOL! 🤣
damn crazy guy :DD
Really when you think about it though you're already in fucking pain you might as well go for it while you're already in pain or maybe on some pain medicine

I am sure it had nothing to do with having pain drugs for sure haha. ....
Also affects judgement.
That’s what skating is all about
Respect to Heath forever man
Heath kirchart is an underrrated GOAT. He was wayyy ahead of his time. I wish he got the credit he deserved
Definitely not underrated lol, he was enormous for years, he just wasn't one for being the center of attention. But for sure always got the credit he deserved
Oh he was the man in his time, trust me
ale kee no I mean in my generation. Im 19 and none of my friends have seen Sight unseen
he's everyone's favorite skater. All the pros you see doing all kinds of crazy gnarly stuff, thats his influence in skateboarding.
Trust me bro he gets all the credit he deserves , he’s ur fave skater’s favorite skater.
It hurts me to think heath hates his skating
Drew E He hates skating?
Anttjuan Reid “hates his skating” heath said he sucked at skating
For sure dude he is a legend.
think he’s just being humble
He's just a hipster. Hipsters hate everything, especially their own stuff.
Legend. He def seems pretty sad/worried that he has hit his head so many times though.
Then his biggest regret should be not wearing a helmet, especially after he learned about brain injury.
EDIT: I didn’t mean to sound like such a dick. Heath is a damn good skater. I was surprised he’d taken so many hits to the head and continued to skate with that intensity. I hope he’s ok.
@@DFunct905 tell that to my lacrosse helmet and the 3 concussions I've had while playing

When are we gonna get an episode of Battle Scars for Heath's hat?
Haha lol 😂

😭
I’ve been watching skating for YEARS! Your kickflip on the triple set is the best leap of faith I’ve ever seen! Love you bro, you are actually my fav! Seriously, love you heath. Much love!!!!
Greatness never shouts, it only whispers. Love ya Heath.
I suppose Martin Luther King was faking it. If only he was a little more subdued
By your logic, if Heath ever shouted, he'd no longer be great, which is obviously nonsense
I can smell that cap from here
and his hair
Your fly must be open
Why did you make a joke, then follow up with an insult when someone made pretty much the same joke?
@@pointlessfailure i thought it was funny
He doesn't have any sponsors any more cut him some slack.
He catches his kickflips on the way up
fit largo Heath was tech in his youth. I’ve seen old vids of him late flipping with the best of em.
We need a Heath 9 club
David Day amen to that it would be a great episode lol
Wish it’d come true...sadly I really don’t see him having any interest in doing one anymore. But what do I know?
He was on the hawk vs wolf podcast not too long ago
@@itachi1341212that's only because Tony agreed to be in the Klein Epicly Later'd.... why Heath was a part of that deal, I don't know, but they mention in that interview that Heath is doing it only as a favor to Tony
He has to go down as one of the greatest skaters ever, just a beast of a skater and absolute talent, one of my all time favorites
he’s a legend, but he seems like such a sad guy
He is introvert
You know it could be all the head trauma he suffered. CTE is a hell of a thing.
he does
Should he be dancing a jig?

MORE HEATH. HE IS THE BEST. LITERALLY THE BEST
One of the best to ever do it! Loved his Emerica shoe. I had 2 pairs.
Heath 9 club. I miss his skating so much
Man some of that shit is too gnarly to even show. So much respect. I hope it’s not affecting him too much now
S are you sure? Heath was always a kind of chill dude off the board, at least from what I’ve seen.
S “seems depressed and spacey” what a you a fucking shrink? lol
We talk about slams because they're a testament of the degree to which skaters will push themselves to skate.
Fav skater
LEGEND...
one of my favorite skaters, keep doing what your doing Heath
Of course people talk about your slam cause it shows people how much effort you put in the video... absolute madlad
Poor guy. You can tell he's depressed. Wishing him a recovery

Heath , Me and my brother used to watch all those video years ago in the UK ... Where as the time gone ? Your a legend....
This is a true OG Legend ! Trust me when I say this
everybody knows this. nobody needs to trust your bitchass
SM luv ur pfp :D
Serious respect for this guy.. his slams look hard af. God damn :(
Probably the coolest guy to be on emerica ever!
Never he kinda,cocky,aboutbhis skating bro

But Justin is a drunk. 😂😂😂

This dude is one of a kind. God blessed us with Heath.
I like the way Heath talks
The slams are definitely just as memorable as the makes , legend Forsure
Heaths part in this is skateboarding started the video off perfectly!!!! 🤙🏻
I heard Heath got with Carmen Electra at a party one nite back in the day no lie lol👌🏻
605 Skate Krew I guess it’s true that Heath inspired a lot of imitators 😆
Carlos Ruiz got served big time on that same hubba in the second slam in What If.
Heath .!.! Hope you cool chillin man what a career.
No one gonna talk abt how in pretty much all of these he slammed his head.
Best Skater ever period
Heath has the best front blunts, and the absolute best kickflips of all time. No question.
surprised he didn't talk about that super steep rail he was trying to lipslide from the Sight Unseen credits. there's just endless clips of his shoulder getting destroyed at the bottom of that thing.
This exactly!! Dont think anyone has ever hit that rail besides him either. Thats a huge freakin rail!!!
It's at UCI. Like 90% of his part was filmed there. It's knobbed now. I've been there it's like chest height too.
Ohhh shit I remember that, fucking was hoping he would land that
Legend. Normal people will never understand just how intense skateboarding can be. You skate because you love it, battle scars and all.
I could listen to his story’s all day
Master! respect for you !!
This battle scars series is the best content on TH-cam period.
The epicly later'd episode about him is very intriguing. What an exceptional dude!
When I first started skateboarding I didn’t have any vids to watch other than the vids on THPS! During mid game they had these big screens that would play clips that weren’t in any of the other vids. I would stop and just watch them but it wasn’t till now that I realized one of the bails was Kirchart bailing at the train bridge!
Do you remember which THPS that was on?
Such a killer skater. Made in Emerica part is still one of my favourites.
Heath is one of the best. A Legend.
Right at the end of the video, Heath chuckles and it’s great because he is so stoic all the time it’s like trying to get a horse to laugh.
humble Heath crushing rails from way back GOAT 4 sure!
It's like watching Matthew McConaughey talking about skateboarding on true detective, only this dude is authentic by far
Facts
that flip been missing since january
The start of This is skateboarding part is such an awesome song use on that gnarly bail. Used to watch that part non stop
*falls 25 feet and lands on face *
*maybe it was the root canal *
One of the beast to ever do it
The all white dressed heath kirchart
Profile pic for research purposes
Please
with that kickflip over the fire hydrant.
Earsknott??????
My fav, hsu and rowley next
I like the “bum-look” - it looks so real on him!
Heath and Braydon's slams in This is Emerica honestly scared me out of skating rails and hubbas for so long. Braydon's bleeder was fuckin gnarly
He sure does down play his skating..
The end is has always been a part u can show to
Most people and they will appreciate it skater or not.
The reason why we like your slams is because you got up and did the tricks after or atleast kept pushing and that is skateboarding Heath is a true representation of what skateboarding should be one of the best no doubt
What a legend man.... the GOAT
Forget the skating stuff, when he went out on that little boat into massive swells is the gnarliest thing Heath has done. He's a madman.
This is why I stopped skateboarding in adulthood, lol. Wouldn't trade it for anything, though. All kids should get on a skateboard and go big and get hurt while they are still resilient. Kirchart was definitely one of my favs growing up. I haven't thought of him in a while, this was a fun reminder.

FUCKING. LEGEND. Sight Unseen blew my mind. Thank you, Heath!
Top 5 all time for his bangers and slams.

U can tell people to wear a helmet, but it really affects how people perform💯
