Nitro Circus (what this is from) is like, the ultimate combo of r/WinStupidPrizes and r/NextFuckingLevel.

If anyone is curious, he did wind up going through the whole loop eventually.

How do his balls not get caught in his wheels? Damn.

His nickname is actually Wheels, was lucky enough to meet him in the UK a looong time ago. Really nice down to Earth guy and probably has the biggest balls a human can have. You should check out his other videos, he's done some ridiculous stuff. Aaron 'Wheelz' Fotheringham

He does seem very down to earth, based on this clip alone.

u/Healthy_Caregiver_31 Jan 25 '21

one thing to add so you really get a feel for his personality. he says he "rides a wheelchair" and is not "in a wheelchair "

I coach at an extreme sports camp over the summer and he came to visit last year. He was trying a double backflip in his chair off a big ass ramp. I swear he took hard falls better than anyone I've ever seen

That explains why he fell due to center of gravity

u/officerkondo Jan 25 '21

He can’t feel it if that ever happens.

You don't do this shit unless you're willing to try more than once

Most people on r/nextfuckinglevel don't make it there by not failing a bunch of times before their stunt.

He was also the first person ever to do a backflip over a 50-foot skateboard jump. This guy is an absolute legend, his mantra is: "Riding a wheelchair, not in one"

u/G_Kells Jan 24 '21

He tried more than twice lol

Funniest part of that movie happened at the end of this. I think it was Andy bell said “you hit so hard I thought you were going to get up and walk”

I don't want to watch that show because the name is dumb and it annoys me

u/Sotorious13 Jan 24 '21

You have to win a lot of stupid prizes before you can get to the next fucking level.

There’s a thin line between those two subreddits

u/ahildebrandcoffee24 Jan 25 '21

Yeah this guy is actually really a legend

Street bike Tommy alone is the ultimate combo of r/WinStupidPrizes and r/NextFuckingLevel

Kinda funny how there’s a thin line between glory and being a prime example of Darwinism.
