that reminds me, I really need to re-watch Steptoe & Son
AlexanderSupertramper
That's fucking adorable, man.

X hours for flight. X hours to drive to hotel. X hours to drive to viewing destination. 2 seconds of enjoyment.

growing up I spent many summer on this island when my dad used to race (winner in 1980), amazing place during the ManxGP and TT

For a moment I was uncertain whether your dad was Harold or Dennis Hopper

Curious, when riding where do they tuck their enormous fucking balls?
duflocle
Science is yet to explain the speeds the riders reach on Isle of Man when taking into consideration how much their balls weigh.

F=Ma doesn't seem to hold up when the testicular mass is so massive.

NO.SHIT. !

Fucking hell Mick, nearly lost it on that corner.

That's surreal. I stood in that EXACT spot to watch the TT 4 years ago.

Anyone got a death toll for thus year in Isle of MAN?
DoEpicStuff
On average, one racer dies a year :(
silentsuspekts87
I Remeber one year had like 11 deaths
Michealbay
Your dad is Harold?
kuntzhertz
he's getting wood from it

Feel the power! Road warriors.

I think one lap is just over 37 miles. Average lap speed is 150 mph of this.
stonebreaker6
I’ve seen all kinds of races over the years. And nothing, NOTHING is even close to the Isle of Man TT for sheer insanity.
wdstr
I don’t disagree. But the Irish Road Races like the NW200 are even more bonkers. Same kind of course, with a dozen bikes at once.
stonebreaker6
Haven’t seen those. Time for the google machine! Thanks for the tip.
wdstr
You’ll recognize a ton of names. The maniacs of the TT can’t stay away from this stuff. Truly mad lads.
JuliusPepperwoodFromChicago
Always upvote TT
IReactToCommentsInMemesAndGifs
So happy, he forgot he's holding a camera. +1 dad. +1
vipe650r
That thing is useless at those speeds. At least unless he’s got some hardcore lenses and skill.
TerryFoldFlaps
Yeah he's gonna get great pics of those bikes coming by at 200mph lol
IReactToCommentsInMemesAndGifs
You can get them just as the crest the hill, yes, no?
TerryFoldFlaps
Probably wouldn't be the best quality photo. Unless you're a really really good photographer with a really nice camera.
Canadoug
There's a documentary on YouTube about this race. These dudes are nuts.
paul289
I have a very hard time watching it because of how often riders die. Too much risk for something so trivial. And I love racing.
retgarr
Easy. It's not trivial for them.
paul289
They're willing to sacrifice their lives and abandon their families and splatter their guts just to go fast. I'm sorry, but that's retarded.
fathersisterberzerker
Gotta live for something.
paul289
LIVE being the operative word. If you're going to put your life on the line, at least do it to HELP other people. This is just senseless.
absoliutenus
your dad looks so British

Funny thing is statistically Americans have worse teeth than people from England
iLikeHockey
You'd be wrong though, he's from the Isle of Man
Kommanche
A lot of Brits travel to IOM for the TT. Very likely he's Brit.
HenryLongfellowIII
Obligatory kick in the butt:
MadsBen
I was gonna say he's not from Isle of Woman, but these days you never know
dingofdong
Still one of the British Isles, in fairness (although so is Ireland), and part of the wider UK
DownWithYouAll
Not in the UK*. Manx are British, its in the British Isle.
dashers
That would make the Irish British, I'm not sure they'd like that. Brits are from Great Britain - the he largest of the isles.
DownWithYouAll
They are British. Fuck them.
discipulusss
British Isles, my man

Downvote all you want, it doesn't make it less true.
RadishIsAMeat
Weird how comments like this are accepted, you couldn't say "he looks very Chinese" without being accused of xenophobia.

It doesn't matter if people made those accusations as those people would be morons
WannabeMaverick
The difference is the British can take a joke.

IDontLoveJesusButDoItAnyway
probably because historically the uk/england hasn't really been a victim to anyone since the romans (or maybe 1066)
nelshai
You forgot the whole Dark Age migration period and the plundering of the vikings. England was a victim for a millenia. (Not Scotland tho.)
