I'm glad they posted those videos, I was getting bothered by the hay thing; and wondering if Dany had switched to a coaster hub for it. The wheels spinning backwards should have propped the drivetrain and cranks to spin. Turns out he only removed the pawls from his hub...
I wonder why they didn't have him approach the hay bale from the other direction. It would have been like riding a treadmill. But then I guess he would have run the risk of being run over by the hay bale. Seems like a pretty light risk compared to everything else he does.
@Scotj009: No, but I've also never jumped off a three-and-a-half-foot drop onto a railroad track and ridden away. Or slid across a downed tree, or any of the other dozens of tricks he performed here that are fairly impossible for us mere mortals. My point is that the guy makes a living doing things other people can't. Maybe he can do it, and maybe he can't, but I wouldn't dismiss something as a possibility with this guy just because other people find it difficult.
