Best beef is butcherbox.com or 44steaks.com. One is grass fed, one is corn fed.

T. Texan that knows and loves a great steak.

Anyone holding a grunge over a little nickname he got at like age 9 is not paying attention to the big picture.

Nicknames on helmets and buttpatches were all over the place in the 80 and 90s and that was pretty cool.
Yeah but none of those guys put up Self titled videos with titles like

Yeah they've definitely embraced the all-caps moron youtube "culture", but the fact that it works isn't exactly their fault. Don't blame the beer commercial.

Their youtube channel is also working because it is most of the time very interesting ; it is pretty unique, you can enter their shop, see their training every day, check their bikes, see what they do to be competitive, get even riding lessons, all that in a good and chill atmosphere. I would have loved to see such a channel when I was a kid and I totally understand why many riding kids are glued to it.

I've only seen their videos when something interesting causes them to be pushed to other sites, like here or other forums, and they definitely haven't been what I'd consider as moto-educational, but I will take your word for it and say good on them if they're providing useful information to people.

They don't lean too hard into the moron culture. Using titles and thumbnails on YouTube that attract more than core moto followers is kind of a smart move if the current and future success of your brand ("Dangerboy" is a brand) relies on fan interaction and merchandising sales. They keep it tongue-in-cheek for the most part. They're competing for views against hillbillies on pit bikes that wear go pros and fake being shot and robbed and shit... who do we want to win here.

i would assume Brian would pull him aside after watching the footage and tell him to calm ya farm. Show him a bit of Reed v Stewart v RC or something! Thats embarrassing to trash talk over what appears to be nothing. His only a kid after all i guess. Great ride by Deegan and Best, them kids are hauling

People love to hate on people doing better than them. It’s classic projection.

The kid is one of the best in the world in his age group. He has a famous dad, built in industry connections, a huge following, and he probably makes more off his you tube than the average worker. When you’re winning as hard as that kid at everything in life, you’re bound to get haters.

What’s impressive is he is getting better year over year and by all accounts works really hard. When that changes the hate can flow, but until then it’s hard to hate on a kid that seems to be maximizing every possible opportunity being given to him, regardless of how anyone feels he earned it.

Haha you think it's the 13 year old kid putting these videos together and typing the titles for them?
It's his dad, who love him or hate him has an incredible knack for marketing and making money and that's what those videos are doing well..
I was very ready to not like the kid but as someone else mentioned the way he interacts with other kids that are his fans shows how good of a kid and person he is..
I don't watch all of them but any video I do watch I enjoy!

Also hilarious that there's a thread complaining about the young riders not showing any emotion or personality and a thread complaining about a rider showing emotion and personality

Moto is never really "easy" no matter the age, but Brian puts an obsessive amount of effort into everything he does. Grow up with it and it seems normal, part of why success begets success. Or, they could get Hanny syndrome and have all the talent and not enough focus and only achieve a quarter of what they could have otherwise. Too early to tell really.

A few things I've learned in this thread:

1. Vital is very petty

2. Most people here have no idea how branding on YouTube works

3. If someone stuck a mic in my face at that age and Vital heard the nuggets of wisdom I probably would have spouted off the internet would break.

A friend of mine told me to do this before grilling. As the steaks were getting to room temp my buddies and I went outside to have some drinks...my dog jumped up on the counter enjoyed 40 dollars of steaks and pissed out of her ass the next day.
That's hilarious and the same thing happened to my dad. He had a fillet on the counter and was outside at the fire with a beer...our German Shepherd came slinking past...wobbling actually. Marshall had guzzled the whole steak. I thought the oldman was gonna shoot our dog that day.

He eventually calmed down and saw the funny side of the event.

I also noticed that...damned if you do, damned if you dont.

"Also hilarious that there's a thread complaining about the young riders not showing any emotion or personality and a thread complaining about a rider showing emotion and personality"

Also, the Deegans are creating a brand of their own and Brian has really mellowed out and done all the rights things as a family. I can only give them credit as they have earned it.

Many happy days ahead.

My 8yr old son just started watching some of their videos. The Deegan's are moto to the core so I much prefer my son watching them than the Mindcraft/gamer Youtuber garbage he was watching.

Maybe the incident wasn't as aggressive as Haiden perceived it to be but I'll cut a 13yr old some slack because God knows I've overreacted to on-track incidents in the past. Live and learn...

I’m not really into the stuff they put out, but I have watched some and can say Brian does an amazing job, I was into the whole crusty Demons movement as a kid and it’s cool to see how great of a role model Brian is. It’s no surprise that family has had the success they have!

My son has met both the boys and I have watched Brian interact with fans at races. They are top notch people. Notice how people who have met and been around them have nothing but praise for them, and the negativity comes from those that have not...

If you have kids and see them at the races, I bet your kid comes away smiling and will talk about it for days.

We have also had fantastic experiences with Seth Hammaker and Max Miller.

I don’t think the number of magazines he receives every month is germane to the situation.

That actually deserves its own thread.

I can't see a better way to improve, I think that would be a fantastic move to build him for the future.

It would be bad ass to see him in a couple rounds of the italian, french, dutch, and belgian championships too.

So much negativity lol.

Do you know what a goat looks like ?
Or a chicken?

Yet we are still talking about legends of the sport, a little nickname sometimes helps, I could not actually spell Haiden until yesterday.

Let us just watch how a promising kid develops and enjoy Wink

I don't think he calls himself Danger Boy. It's just a fun moniker his dad had fun with.

Definitely believe the hype. He's a phenomenal athlete. His ability to pick things up quickly on skateboards, scooters, etc. is no joke.

It's interesting to see him grow up and interact with all his little fans. He might be the most famous rider in the world in a few years and I'd say he's going to handle his fame really well. He's got a ton of confidence and swagger and might get shit for it but I think he's mature well beyond his years.

There will always be haters but his dad has done a great job and Haiden is ready to fulfill his promise.
We have been around him several times and seen him grow. He's gotten really cocky over the last couple of years. In his pits when the cameras are on, he's on point an polite. When the cameras are off, his true colors shine. I saw him trying to jam a golf cart into reverse while going about 15mph and grinding the piss out of the gears and laughing about it. It was a rental golf cart, not his own. I saw him turn his back to a little kid trying to talk to him. He literally said hi and turned around.
Kid is crazy talented on a bike, but I'm questioning how he will handle the fame. It's looking more and more like he will go the route that his dad did attitude wise.
