00:00My name's John Pearson, we're from Broke F&X, and we're here to do a freestyle motocross show, showing you guys what we can do.
00:13So is that something that you come to do every year around Cape Nerds?
00:16We've been here last time two years ago, and then we came to Wick about five years before that.
00:21But we come up here every now and then when they want it, and we're here to impress people and show people a bit about freestyle motocross.
00:28Does that evolve as well?
00:30Freestyle motocross is motocross bikes doing big jumps and doing aerobatical manoeuvres in the air while you're flying through the air.
00:37So we're going to be flying 35 feet up in the air, 75 feet in distance, showing people what kind of stunts we can do.
00:48Try and impress people while we're here.
00:50I can imagine that does attract a very large crowd as well.
00:55Usually the noise of the motorbikes brings people in, and then because you're flying so high, everybody can see it.
01:00So it brings everybody in to show people what you can do.
01:03So how long have you done this?
01:05Way too long, yeah, we've been doing it way too long.
01:08Probably need to grow up at one point, but we like travelling around, like the feeling of it.
01:13Looks good, get a good response, we're enjoying it.
01:15Very good adrenaline rush as well.
01:17Yeah, it's a good adrenaline rush, yeah.
01:19And if I can ask you, on the accident you might have had last year as well.
01:22Yeah, a couple of years ago we had a bit of a crash.
01:27Just landed a bit funny and slid out on the bottom and got away with it really.
01:30So usually when you have a crash you really hurt yourself.
01:33You were never really put off by that?
01:35No, not really, it was just a stupid little mistake.
01:39That's happened as well, so would you say that your role on staff made you more committed?
01:43Well, it makes you concentrate a bit when you have a little crash.
01:47We had a little accident the other year, just slipped off a little bit, so hopefully not do that today.
01:53Perfect, thank you very much.
