What’s the Best Moto Video of All Time?

I'm going Terrafirma 2.

The whole video is amazing. For me, that segment with MC riding at Castillo Ranch with Disconnected playing is pretty much the pinnacle of dirt bike footage. 

Like so many others it's super hard to pick because they're just so many. But, one song has always stuck in my head and I always butcher the lyrics, Big Black Woman by Shrinky Dinx. Now known as Sugar Ray. Man, how that band changed, for the worst, for me at least.

Maybe not the goat but The Beginning was my kids go to video. I still watch it occasionally. Many of the riders are still relevant in Pro SX MX and the music is cool. 

I forget the name of the documentary, but that classic Baja 1000 video with former world off-road champion Lyle Swann comes to mind. Dude was a true badass. Some insane, almost unbelievable footage. 

I really liked The Great Outdoors - The constant War.

The first episode of the great outdoors. When the gate is ready to drop and that kid looks out at the start, and then the roar of those 125’s launching of the line. Nothing better.

I don't know about the best of all time, that may belong to Crusty 1, but I think this deserves an honorable mention just for the Roczen whip followed up by the Barcia braaap. It also doesn't use the typical music which was a nice change.

“omg Fox has their own helicopter”

It was a segment from the PBS kids TV Show ZOOM. They flew down from Boston to Texas to film it. Race action was at Cycle Rama in San Antonio. Same track as the Let Brock Bye incident. Other footage is a local track in deep South Texas. 

Maybe it’s just because of nostalgia, but I really enjoy the TGO series. Specifically TGO 2 and Another Perfect Season.

Global Addiction - Free ride clips in the desert lived in my head as a kid. 

What a cool thread. Can't wait to watch/listen to everyone's suggestions. Many of my favorites have been mentioned. Love the MC segment in Terrafirma 4 with Caught up in da Game. Both C.O.C songs/segments in T2 come to mind. For more recent ones, Slayground 2 and 3 with Slightly Stoopid. 

I had a ton of videos in the 90's, seems like the one's I would watch the most were Children of a Metal God and Steel Roots. every time I hear Symphony of Destruction I see MC doing wheelies down the train tracks

Intro to Fox Greatest Hits is tough to beat for me.

Crusty 1

Steel Roots - McGrath

Wrathchild -intro

I am a bit partial to Pastranas “Revelation199”,    a heel clicker and a couple silly tricks/crashes got me a few clips in that one.   Such great riding memories from 25-30 years ago

These two posts make a strong case for enabling us to give than one thumbs up at a time!

Ghetto man.

Prob not the best video ever but every few years or so I get the itch to rewatch this one https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=90fYBPcxPB8&pp=ygUcSm9zaCBncmFudCBhdCBoaX…

This post inspired me to watch Terrafirma 1 all the way through 7.

Best way to spend an unexpectedly rainy day.

The late 90s/early 2000s were the best of moto times and they can be relived for free on YouTube.

The footage, and that song...The Sundays, what memories, good times...
