Why do people feel the need to speed up videos of riders that are already fast?

Seen multiple examples lately. Jett Lawrence supercross doubling into sand section, Deegan sx testing, etc.

These dudes are already fast. You don’t need to speed up the video 5% and think no one will notice. It’s easy to tell when the physics are clearly unnatural and the people in the background are moving like tweakers.

Anyone else annoyed by this? Seems to be too common.

Saw that on a de Wolf video last week too.  Didn't feel like getting bombed that day so I didn't say anything, but it was obvious.

Right, and to be fair it’s not just moto. It’s a trend right now and I’m over it. Hopefully it stops

I, too, disagree with this practice, except in the case of videos of me, where I highly encourage it.

Can you provide some examples? The Triumph videos look a lot slower for sure then any of Deegans but I just thought he was that much faster. I am not catching it being sped up.

Yup I've noticed it for a while. You can notice it the most when the rider is going fast closer to the camera position. Almost like they cut out frames.
