I've been having lots of fun livestreaming IRL skateboarding on Twitch follow along to catch me live :)
I'm not hating on other races but can we see clearly why we were the ones that Conquered the world first?!
Thanks Ricky! Rad vid. My set up was 8.38 birdhouse board, 144 independent trucks and the key was I used soft wheels, I used some bones prototypes which are now the Bones 97 X formulas. Without softer wheels I don’t think I would have done it. Much love dude 🫶🫶🫶
Legend!
Jaws the goat ❤ fav skater ever
Dope!
no way the key was in a wheel softness!
You waxed the wheelbite too, right? I remember seeing that and thinking it was smart as hell
I love how the security guard is just casually walking up the stairs as he flys over😂
Imagine it being his first day-
"Ahh they weren't joking"
A tip for breaking down what happens in TH-cam videos, when you're paused you can advance/rewind a frame at a time with the comma and period keys
11 likes and no comments, let me fix that!
Cheers for the useful tip! Happy New Year and all the best from Western Australia 🦘😎🤙🏼
On me phone? 99% of youtube is watched on phone... is there a tip for this, without going to slow in settings
thanks a lot, very useful :D
@@mondop5270 get a pc
Hey man, thank you for featuring my attempt! Between the Lyon 25 and the Dubai 26 (13 flat 13), I’d say the Dubai 26 was much more terrifying to attempt hahaha
Youre a legend! Keep shredding!
Big props for having the guts to attempt this monster. Which rider were you in the vid?

@@alne3aimy yo this set is fucked hahaha you are def a legend after that bro, hope youre well!
Bro, Jaws really went and one upped Ali with that full leg splits he did lol. I'd be out for the rest of my life after that.
right!
"Out for the rest of my life" ia one of the best things I've read in a while.
Especially because he landed a year after blowin a knee
In fairness to Ali was high and drunk most of the time as he was an addict.
Broooo that thing HURT to watch. He not even wearing knee pads jeeeeeeeeeeeze
The fact you didnt sh*t on Scooter riders so so refreshing to see man, gained a sub and respect bro
Respect for mentioning Ali Boulala for being the first to attempt Ollie-ing that monster set. He was the first I saw try it, the last clip of his part in Flip’s Sorry video. 20 years later it is still a pretty damn good video.
We used to watch it before going out to skate in 2003/4
I love this cause it proves Jaws is super human. No one else can take the impact and roll away
Fell like Boulala was in the same ballpark, but already waiting a year probably psyched him out of trying anymore.
This video really gives Jaws major props without even doing it on purpose , which makes it extra meaningful… that was amazing Jaws ! 🦈
being a buck 20 helps lol
The dude in the track suit could have made it but he was too focused on self-preservation > commitment.
Also Jaws got those inverted, alien knees to absorb x2 impact lol.
Dom tomatos impact broke his foot
Dom's a parkour legend and has been absolutely smashing it this year, definitely a channel to check out
Jan Schlappen just landed it with a parkour front flip today, now being the first one to do it without injury!
Haha yeah im in his comments on IG 😆
Dom Tomato is insane, you should check the other stuff he does
For real
i've been watching him, storror, team phat, travis verky, for a while now. amazing people doing amazing things
guy isn't human, like, for real, he regularly takes impact that would kill other people easily.
He is crazy, he has done some crazy stuff
Also an Aussie!
This is pretty nuts, just thinking of the impacts and then multiple attempts!? It hurts so bad but people will remember this and say, what a bunch of crazy dudes. Very cool people did this but also insane. Thanks for the share ricky, jaws is a legend, glad he is still doing it with all the stuff he has done.
Almost every scooter rider caught a haymaker from their bars. That was bruuutal.
Yeah fr
yeh its just not possible and it would look like shit anyway. no one looks good riding a scooter
@@oxstorm644 ahahhaahaha brooooo Jesus exist
@@Трам0Jesus didn't ride into town on a shitty ass scooter
I don't know why those scooter riders tried bar spins or tail whips when an Ollie had never been landed.
Dom with the front flip is the craziest for me.
he maybe started the flip too early, as he ran out of rotation on impact and then did his landing roll?
@@weatheranddarknessYeah he probably flipped to late, though it’s kinda hard (besides scary) to just go in blind to that huge jump. But I’m not near his skill in parkour so don’t take it as a “correct” answer, cause I can be wrong 🙌
@@CallMeLazyy. Whatever the case it's clear that this height is really on the borderline of even the best among us to be able to land successfully regardless of what they're using. Honestly surprised the trials motorcycle had so much trouble. Definitely seen enormous drops to flat on those executed successfully.
@@weatheranddarkness Nah, I think it was fine. If he would've went earlier, he might have overrotated and would've faceplanted instead of rolling away.
Always crazy and pushing what is possible in the parkour community
9:09 “break your neck or whatever” had me dead lol
What's the most stairs you ever tried to ollie?
7 but on scoot but I also skate but only rolled down curb
@@bali.spoony i did 6 on a scoot 😏
@@rickyglaser dang that’s sick what scoot did you use was it the Raymond Warner one at brail house
well i kickflipped the 6 stair at my middle school library that was my best trick as a teenager, i think i must of ollied it first.
@@bali.spoony it was a razr lol but i did the braille 5 and grinded the rail too, i also backflipped one at woodward there is a vid on my channel
What makes Fabio on the DH sick is he cleared the massive set behind the 25 before doing it as well
i wonder if he did it first try
It's crazy how most don't even wear helmets.
u don’t need one that’s why
If you know how to land safely
@@chasekrus2124you can get concussions if you dont
@@chasekrus2124this is so wrong you must be an idiot
If you don't need one why do people made it
It needs an update! Jan Schlappen made it too in 2024. He's a german parcour guy. did it very confident on the first try without any injury!
I love how at 2:54 its like the woman walking across the bridge is getting a first-hand experience of why women live longer than men
"You'd probably break your neck, whatever.."
- Ricky Glaser, 2023
😂😂😂
Great video Ricky I loved it! And props for tagging them in each clip
"Just break your neck or whatever"
Like that couldn't kill you loll . These dudes are wild tho
Shoutout to Jan Schlappen!
13:20 this guys was the only one to land it. why becuase he didn't send it. everyone else was trying to jump out and over the stairs. this guy just hopped and fell down the stairs making his point of impact alot less intense. it was honestly a smart play. those whos actually jumped and went for it just had so much momentum that the impact at the end was just so much. The bmxer that landed it took the shortest path thus he created the least amount of momentum and stayed with in the impact that humanly possible to sustain. basically he learned from watching everyone else and had the psychics down. In Theory.
Aurel really seems to have a superior control of his falls, rolling the impact away instead of just slamming like others.
heck yeah! great video ricky! ive looked for a video with all the attempts that are not just skateboarding.
thanks for putting this compilation together! :3
the 360 on the bmx is just insane... man on a mission... 🔥
Its cool to see the difference in rolling when you fall and those whose splat. Pays off to practice falling for sure
I love your style of producing these videos. Make it enjoyable to even have in the background. Very soothing voice you should be voice actor
Jaws and Courage Adams are both beasts!
Thanks a lot for including Fabio's attempt! Definetly an iconic moment in mountain biking, and one of the biggest huck to flats to this day. It probably was a little easier on a mountain bike, especially a dh, but still crazy impressive
Love how the dude is wearing gloves to protect his hands yet doesn't wear a helmet 😂😂😂 #Logic
That guy carrying his bro up the stairs at 5:10 is what it's all about. The bros.
I'd say they should wear a helmet to prevent brain damage, but I think they already suffer from that.
just say you're pussy dude and move on
These newer street scooter parts that are being released now are so much more durable metals and materials compared to half a decade ago. I truly think if someone had the right fork and deck, they’d be able to land it
Probably a shorter bar too.
While I love skateboarding and extreme sports, I enjoy it to a limit. When people start putting their life on the line for a trick, then that's just foolish. The best case scenario of anyone landing these stairs is that it will almost surely negatively affect their knees and joints. And not landing it is bound to lead to all sorts of serious injuries, potentially getting permanently crippled, or even dying if they hit their head or break their neck.
P.S. Back in my skating days, the most stairs I ever ollied and landed was 4. Had I kept skating, I think 5 or 6 stairs would have been my personal limit. Beyond that I just wouldn't want to risk it. Plus, I've always been more into technical flatground stuff. And for the pros, I think anything beyond 10 stairs is where it gets too dangerous for my liking. Even if they land it, it's going to hurt their knees in the long run.
Sounds like this isn't the video for you 😆
Obviously not into slab surfing then. 🤷
I really enjoy your commentary and the way you approach. Things and think about them definitely had to subscribe to your channel.
jan from team shlappen just front flipped it
I was worried he wasn't going to show Dom do the front flip when I didn't see it on the thumbnail. That's awesome
Those extra clips were great
It is also funny how much culture actually has an impact on people's performance.
It seemed to me that most scooter riders were not even prepared to land
Skaters knew in a way what they were getting into, speed, landing, etc
Like how much more easier would have been for scooter riders to start little and build it up from there, a simple ollie
I do not skate often, but I have seen plenty of skateboard videos along the years, so even if my skill is not that good I got an idea of what performing a trick can imply
It’s crazy that Ricky is a skater, but still knows some things about Scooter riding. Thanks for the video.
I have done 12, I broke my arm on the landing but I rode away
Wait why is TH-cam demonetizing skate vids?
that sounds crazy! it should be good now that i burned in the disclaimer but youtube has been getting more sensitive to action sports slams
Ali deserves massive props for the first attempt but I have to say Courage Adams' success is the best. So casual but so stylish.
Another Parcour Guy has made it! @FreerunningSchlappen
As a French person, I will explain to you why security in general in France often consists of people with no security service experience. They are often hired individuals who come in and usually speak very poor French and even less English, so the level of communication is zero and the level of diplomacy is doubly zero from the guys of security
Yea same here in America
Exactly the same in Ireland 🇮🇪 the security guards often speak little English with the hardest to understand accent on top of it makes me wonder how they even got the job
@Best_of_the_West_side To be a security guard (without disrespecting the real professionals who do this job, because it is a real job, apart from those who do it on the sly, so to speak), let's be honest-it’s not that complicated. Standing with a dog on a leash, spending 8 hours guarding a door, or intimidating a couple of skaters or young punks who are drinking or making a bit too much noise isn’t exactly rocket science. And yes, aside from the fact that it’s better if you know the language, it doesn’t necessarily require a ton of skill-unless, of course, you run into some serious troublemakers. That said, in general, these aren’t the best-paying jobs, which is why a lot of people from Africa, often underpaid, end up doing them.
I love skateboard and bike attempts here however Dom Tomato the parkour guy is simply the best of all of them. Tech as hell and huge balls.
Watching the scooter attempts was crazy. Handlebars to face with that amount of impact could kill you
looked like the handlebars hit him in the temple and his leg started seizing out.
@@armorykittington timestamp?
Damn that's scary
Jaws and Dom Tomato have always been some of my faves in their respective sports, but holy sh*t, that bmx 360 was savage!! And was going so smooth too
just wait till rollerbladers start trying to hit it
Great video G
I give the dude props who carried his friend up all those damn steps!!! I would say nahh you have the other leg hop 🤣
haha yeah, in the longer vid you hear him say his other heel is sore too and doesnt want to hop
Jaws is a legend. He was always doing gnarly ass jumps. Great video!!!!!
You should see the diving front flip compilations from Dom Tomato. The man is an absolute beast.
haha yeah i started following his IG since he did this, i hope our paths cross one day
@@rickyglaser A collab would be great. FR/PK and skating are tied together for intensity and overall stoke.
@@rickyglaser this video was awesome you are invited to try parkour anytime man
The scooter dude @ 8:13 landed almost straight legged. That would've been some broken knees/ankles right there. Props to him for even trying it tho.
The scooters trying it without a full face helmet is just ... madness. Asking to lose teeth.
scooting just doesn't work at this level
mid range gaps are the best for us scooter riders
@@oxstorm644
@@oxstorm644 I would agree with you for now as a scooter rider. Skateboards and the rest have some kind of shock absorption (the wood, bushings, wheels, etc.) A scooter is literally a piece of rigid metal, and you have to use your own body as a shock absorber. That will spell disaster as one can see from the parkour attempt.
In my heyday with my Inline Skates in the late 90's, I would have liked to have attempted these stairs by doing a 180 degree Front Flip (Cartwheel Flip) to land backwards so it's more stable on the landing.
I cleared 18 stairs in the South of England with this technique. Landing backwards on my 'Roces Majestic 12' Skates from height always seemed much more stable for me for some reason. Even if it was just a 180 or 540 degree spin, Misty Flip or Reverse Misty Flip in the Vert Pipe.
I used to Skate around Wiltshire, England in the mid to late 90's and sometimes travelled to Bath, Bristol, Chippenham and to the South Coast Skate Parks.
Aggressive Skating was the thing to do as a teenager in my Town back in the day. It's sad to see how unpopular it's become since the 90's.
The backside 360 on bicycle is bar far the nuttiest send - he landed perfect two wheels almost have to count it due to equipment failure
Walk away too!
Yeah I count it in my books, that was actually beautiful and super courageous to send it facing back 👌🏼
There’s no such thing as a backside 360 in BMX, it’s either regular or opposite. And that’s determined by which way you spin more comfortably and which foot is forward on the cranks. This was definitely a regular 360….
@@DirtySk8RatStaney on that note, I wonder why these folks went with "backside" as opposed to frontside? I guess if you ride right foot forward you're more likely to be spinning left, which I guess would be analogous to a backside spin rather than a frontside spin?
I cried laughing.
the biker who tried the back 360 at night was so gnarly. props to jaws for landing it and all the scooter kids who tried it and almost rolled away but were knocked off by just force of a 25 stair.
Using anything with suspension makes this worse. It creates a sort of "double bounce" like on a trampoline.
The same effect happens inside your shoes when taking drops. If your insoles and socks are all loose then your heel smacks harder through to the concrete than if your insoles are new and your shoes are laced tight. Jaws talked about this specifically in his interview on Nine Club.
Wow interesting!
The thing I noticed was how everyone who tried gave it a full send and landed on their boards/scooters/bikes but just the sheer impact of the jump was what knocked them off.
Jaws setup: th-cam.com/video/L6V5Oco_AH0/w-d-xo.html For big jumps he puts teflon tape on the bottom of the board like deck rails to prevent that splitting
sick thanks!
Great video Rick! That stair said it's crazy! Courage Adams is nuts!
I can't imagine there isn't a inline skater that hasn't done this those fuckers are actually crazy.
I was thinking the same thing, been blading for a long time and can’t think of a single attempt. I’m gonna have to ask around.
Nope. No bladers have tried it as of yet. I wish it wasn't 4000 miles away from me, I'd give it a shot.
there was a bigger stair set which someone did on rollerblades actually
8:44 is Fabio Wibmer, he's riding for Red Bull and got some really sick parts.
Scooters make more sense to my brain because if you land back wheel the inertia throws you forwards as opposed to the concave that just catches you. More of a three action process than a two. Jaws isnt human.
But that's more of a mitigating forces issues. Balance would be easier with trucks because you can catch and when it pivots to the weak side and you can ride it out. Same reason the motorbike worked out so well, its designed to take a one axis load.
Wasn't stairs but tried to alley-oop ollie off the roof of a loading dock. Landed on my upside board with my front foot perpendicular across the front truck and compound fractured my foot. Was my first serious bone break and I was scared to put my feet down on anything big after that. Changed how and what I skated for the next 10 or so years.
Jaws is the goat at drops it would be amazing to see Ricky try it
loving your commentary!
The fact that Aurélien Giraud almost landed it no grab first try is insane.
I like scooter, I have lots of friends that ride scooter and are really good at it but jumping over 24 stairs looks absolutely ridiculous sorry 😭 also I don't understand why they're trying tricks even before someone was able to just jump over it
Scooter rider here. If it were me, my mind set is "if im gonna do this, im going big" so doing a trick im comfortable with instead of just jumping it would mean more credibility. 25 set is nothing to scoff at and doing a trick down it is even crazier.
@@invertedsun yeah dude you're talking about 24 stairs, it's not "just jumping" at that level. You're a legend if you jump it
Notice how at 9:25 the property owner has modified the concrete run up just before the stair drop off and added those annoying bump dots that slow you down if you're on a skateboard.. 😅
The explosion on the landing impact is wild. Also a pro scooter is made the same as a pro bike so just as strong. Probably the worst for impact though.
Anything with handlebars is potential face smash
@@infinidominion It's not as bad on a bicycle because you won't be that close to the front when taking a big impact, your butt will come down behind the wheel and you can extend your arms.
Pretty sure pro scooters are made of aluminum and urethane.
I think as much as Ali didn't make it he was the first to say its possible and literally the first in flight and proving how big and Gnarly you could achieve in street skating ❤
I swear I remember someone doing it on aggressive skates.
i was really looking but couldnt find any
@@rickyglaser I'll have to rewatch Tom Moyse's news video about those stairs and JimmyTheGiant's video about those stairs. I swear I saw a rollerblader do a 180 or 360 off those stairs. Maybe I'm remembering wrong. I'll get back to you.
Yeah, I can't find anything either, sadly.
@@zackmarkham4240 is it stuck on IG or something? I feel like I have an image in my mind of an attempt too. White skates black pants? Or is this just some Mandela Effect shit?
@@zackmarkham4240 Maybe everyone realized it wasn't really worth it after Shima shattered his leg doing a huge gap?
Dom Tomato is great - this is scary on anything but diving intentionally head first is amazing 👏 check out his other stuff - one of the best
W jaws
As someone who rode scooters before skateboards you can tailwhip anything you can Ollie, and if you’re risking it for the clip you don’t mind doing a consistent trick like bar spin or tailwhip even bar whips are pretty consistent
yeah basicly if u can do constantly bar spins u can do gaps with them
Not the same spot - but this is the biggest gap a rollerblader has done: th-cam.com/users/shorts_Vx506BVqHs?si=uGXlQB8w3uT7WQlD
It's crazy what your odds are on this staircase. Say what you want about "mainstream", but Jaws is still the only guy out of *tons* of riders on all disciplines to roll away.
Bro I was laughing when he “ you can break your neck whatever” in the accent😂
Aaron is such a savage, I've rarely seend a guy embody "send it" so hard. Will there be a price to pay for these attempts and the make, eventually? For sure. But he accomplished something nobody was sure was even possible.
Thanks for giving the credit for where you found the video on the screen and the instagram handle when you can but maybe give them a shoutout by name too like you did with Jaws or Aurilean.
This is pretty gnarly. Another brutal one was the Alex Liiv bmx video. He does a 12 flat 12 and his bike explodes
"you still have to battle security" Considering all the injuries, i think they just wanna help
Your style is dope dude
Thank you bro. I can’t even give credit to any one in particular. so awesome.
Cant believe any attack with such lax attitudes. Horrible impact absorption except for Aurelian and Jaws
At that height, you're essentially jumping off a building. That's a whole boatload of NOPE right there.
Do a history of the skatestoppers on Lyon 25. I remember Jaws saying "it's done, they skate stopped it, that's it", but then Aurélien skated what seemed like sawn or polished part of skatestopper dots.
Then later in some BMX angles you see the ribbed surface. I wonder if Lyon is technically skateable today?
Yo this video is gold! Insane attempts! The parkour dude is insane!
Geez I missed some killer vids around this time 🔥 shame on me these are great
awesome video, thanks for making this
5:04 Dom Tomato is one of the few high fall Parkour jumpers that could possibly do this.
Look up for Jan Schlappen (German). He did the jump some days ago
This is great video. I did not know about that bar spin. Wow, I would never tell it is possible on bmx.
those slams will reverberate through the ages
cool video
i wonder what the next make down the Lyon set will be
Incredible gap.
I'm just curious if an Inline Skater ever attempted this.
If you look what Erik did (look for "The biggest jump ever landed on rollerblades by Erik Perkett").
Erik jumped a 2-set 24 steps a staircase with an immense landing platform in between, covering a horizontal distance equivalent to at least 8 more steps, and landed about 7 feet away from the last step.
It's crucial to note that he was likely traveling at a speed of around 25 miles per hour, being towed by a car.
I was pure street skating, like Chris Haffey did also in Drip Drop video section, when he tried to do (with no sucess) a huge gap too in the begining of the video.
Many years after he was able to do a world record jumping 30m, but with help of a bunngle cord and ramps (Like Taig Khirs who jumped from eiffell tower)
Shima and some others tried too the old Leap of Faith stairset with no sucess.
***
I'm wondering if an elite rollerblader could be the third to land a trick in there
I didn't see the dirt bike having so much trouble with the landing! I guess the impact of the landing takes most people by surprise - Like you know you're ready for something, but just not that!
ONLY the homie JAWS get props for this epic stair set. Everybody else best to bow down.
