0:00 [Music] all right i wanted to pull up an article that was probably going to piss off nick dude i don't know why you guys always say that and usually right when you say that i'm i'm like immediately just you just use been debunked yesterday um so a tour de france rider boom i hate those guys dude stay in your ████ lanes you know i'm just kidding every step of this is gonna hate it i support all cycles what's next it wasn't even the tour de france writer it was the fan who walked in the middle who got in the way trying to get ████ on his cell phone i hate those ████ i hate the ████ that does that ████ and then you make one guy crash and then 20 people crash yeah and don't try to set records so this crash definitely was a crash because this tour de france

0:50 rider ends up breaking his neck after the collision breaking his neck guy that got in the way he needs to be executed yeah you don't you don't bro it's like you see the ████ bike people come in tell you he's good how are you taking pictures this is the worst thing go on the side would you guys be mad if you broke your neck and then your homie came visit you at the hospital and played the busta rhymes breaking next song if it's the friend and then you're like this nod your head if i couldn't like move to it yeah yeah yeah just moving your feet beat your feet break it talk to me all right anyways um yeah so a tour de france rider has been forced to abandon the race after suffering a broken neck following a collision with a fan the italian writer for team total

1:41 energies remarkably managed to power through to the end of the stage but has since retired from the race due to the injuries suffered during his crash wait so he continued the course with a broken neck what a ████ g bro holy ████ that's amazing yeah it is how do you do that it's just not he's just dangling i'm at the feet he's already oh because he's italian or what he feels a little different italian [Music] hey i'm riding here come on the finish line's only five meters away come on so cycling fans are famous for their desire to get close to the action but this spectator overstepped the mark why do cycling fans want to be like what do they want to do because they show up to go watch cycling that's the problem they have low iqs already you know you would think a sport that you you think a sport you love so much you would have some kind of respect for it to be honest i think all fans and their

2:32 respective sports have low iq they kind of suck even mma right they're like screaming dumb ████ into the ████ crowd or like uh like like you have all those uh memes of like kevin durant having to like tell a fan like shut up because he's telling kevin i hope your kids die in a car crash yeah yeah yeah they're just saying crazy what's that famous basketball game where the dude started fighting the people in the ground i love rhonda what was that the palace was that the palace malice at the palace and that happened because of fans yelling some ████ and throwing ████ they were actually throwing ████ and there was a time when like ronnie tess was like ████ it so he lies down on the announcement table but then somebody chucks another like ████ can of beer or whatever so then he gets back up and then another a fan comes down to the court and fans aren't even supposed to be on the court and like kind of squares that uh squares up on it so ron just punches him yeah it's

3:22 amazing to see like keyboard warriors in real life right makes me sorry and then you see a six nine probably like 260 dude just like hop over these ████ like human-sized chairs and just go like he's here and he goes wow someone like that's five ████ bleachers and you're and you just and you're like that's what you get ████ nothing gets my dick harder than that oh so the spectator was thrown to the ground by the crash um and the biker obviously was chucked off his bike uh and into another rider who was also taken out in the crash dude those wipeouts are really bad man yeah they're really like when they're funny when they fly off their handlebars they really they're really funny with the right music i know it's got to be the building beneath america america america

4:12 ████ yeah yeah anyways additional examination revealed a fracture of a cervical vertebrae requiring immobilization for a few weeks so he's going to recover but he's immobilized for weeks um but he's therefore forced to leave the tour de france um they should have gone they should have kept the guillotine in in france dude they should have kept it and they should have used it for s█████ cyclists fans that get in the ████ way it just hurts it just hurts so much because for specifically for toyota fans like these are people that trained and gave their lives to do this thing is the tour de france every year i think so it is right or like oh so you can just do it next year yeah i don't even know but it's like ████ a thousand miles or two these guys train so freaking hard to do the tour de france like it's like there it's like yeah it's considered the most prestigious and most difficult bicycle races what is this like one week long or something it's an annual men's event that's primarily held in france i hope the guy that caused the crash got hurt

5:02 really bad too they usually ████ yeah probably didn't get hurt enough man so in not poetic justice uh definitely didn't get hurt enough but the other rider who crashed into him the second rider also got really injured uh the second rider involved in the crash austrian alpechan phoenix rider michael goggle was also forced abandoned due to a broken collarbone and pelvis oh my god so do these riders on twitter friends do they have protective gear or they just have the little he's got those ████ tights and ████ yeah they've got this thing not expecting to go into a collision course with another human being you know what i'm saying the question that that begs now is how how did the guy that they hit not get as hurt as these trained athletes because usually it's probably they're probably super stiff on the thing the whole time well also probably a guy getting hit is

5:52 just kind of like getting impact right so any variable can happen there but another person on a bike flying off the bike is in like a physical propelling like nature and they they're already going at like maybe 30 40 miles an hour science so the speed that they're going and then on top of the guy that broke his collarbone in his pelvis you said he got collided into right yeah so he probably wouldn't even see it happen yeah and then all of a sudden he just ████ wiped out you know such a shame he can't really see those instant airbag things these fools should wear them yeah their helmet that's really like hit the grounds like this oh for a road is that a real thing yeah yeah i don't think that they've been like fully approved for consumers and ████ improve it right now but it's for motorcycles right it's for motorcyclists i think so but maybe it's just electric bike yes uh to answer your question the race is 3

6:42 500 kilometers ████ that's like 17 miles i think right 17 miles i was like obviously i don't know what kill a llama that's like 3 000 miles probably or maybe like two thousand miles apart and these guys are going well like 50 miles per hour thousand miles they're going fast depends on which part is because this part happened unfortunately on the cobblestone area of the race which you ████ fall in cobblestone like there's no there's no give you know what i mean well dude those guys wipe out so ████ yeah they wake up if there was a fan with their ████ phone out in front of me and i was ████ racing i'm on my way down i'm gonna grab the finger ████ try to bend it yeah that's why i just like that sword let's grab their hand yeah try to ████ break that ████ they should give like the cyclists like uh chain links and they could just hit the ████ yeah joust the ████ but i've seen

7:32 enough videos where like fans are walking in the middle of the lane and then one lady she like yeah she doesn't even know that the cyclist is like there at all you know there's some people that really can't judge distance and time and speed and they just like go and wow she stops in the middle gets hit and she's knocked out immediately she's stiff and the guy flies off his ████ handlebars you know the the opening stage of the 2021 race was marred by a huge pileup started when a spectator stepped into the road holding a sign with her back to the race why isn't that one on video yeah i think so imagine my entire who is allowing these people oh i'm sure it's so crazy it's such a long like uh you know these ████ route right if they want to show up at these guys work you should flip it on them have ████ lance armstrong show up to their accounting firm and go [Music] ████ just whack the fish

8:22 how do you like show up at your work ████ hit him with a bunch of live strong bands your ████ is the monitor ████ shaking and ████ but also it's kind of crazy to watch um bike because it goes it passed by so quickly and they're like hey that's it that's yay that's why that's why you're a ████ loser watch this ████ at home dude yeah watch and you can watch the whole trail the game you want to drive another 200 miles down this way this is the 2021 last year pileup uh incident check out this one no way a little closer to the 126 has they've gone under that close this oh my god what happened what has happened right on the side of the road look at this i don't know what happened there maybe they clipped the cloud but whatever has happened they are in a right mess down there at the moment now how many imagine that one

9:13 fan causing that that is a massive crash bomber jumbo fisma there was a fan with a sign on the side apparently and go down oh he might have clipped that speck off the road oh he went off the road i think he went off the road the road has got a nasty ridge on it there yeah so it wasn't now the question is

10:03 watching it real life on that massive it's not even a real sport it's fine and they're all on epo anyway yeah yeah you know they have to be though to be competitive what's epo it's a performance enhancement gives you more red blood lance armstrong thingy that he got popped for yeah but that like apparently like they had to go all the way down in like the top 20. they all had it they all they were all doing it they all retro tested they all had it yeah isn't that the controversy behind um bruce jenner and his just like steroid use and then like and then in like after now like he um he now has an imbalance of like testosterone or something like that and now now that's why he's like more feminine and he had steroid usage they confirmed it that's one of the theories that was after he killed that woman on

10:53 pch that's when when he crashed into her because there was a car accident you rear-ended somebody and then she flew into the opposite lane and got killed but that at that point he was already a woman apparently there's something about bruce jenner admitting to using peds in a 1988 interview but i don't even know what the ████ peds are dogs i ain't no ████ scientists i don't know ████ but i'm just like that's just that's just wild putting all those things in your system [Music] [Applause] [Music] you
