3
00:00:44,298 --> 00:00:46,050
I said,
"are you crazy?
4
00:00:46,338 --> 00:00:48,056
What do you think
you're doing?"
5
00:00:48,340 --> 00:00:51,264
I didn't see it
as being a positive.
6
00:00:51,552 --> 00:00:54,055
I saw it as Danny
gettin' killed.
7
00:01:17,703 --> 00:01:20,627
Anyone can learn
anything they want.
8
00:01:20,914 --> 00:01:21,915
It's all in your head.
9
00:01:22,207 --> 00:01:23,800
You've just got
to spend time on it.
10
00:01:26,169 --> 00:01:30,720
I don't know that a
lot of people really get Danny Way.
11
00:01:31,008 --> 00:01:33,102
There's
a lot of guys that...
12
00:01:33,385 --> 00:01:35,513
that'll do whatever it
takes to win.
13
00:01:35,804 --> 00:01:38,853
Then there's guys that do whatever
it takes to push themselves,
14
00:01:39,182 --> 00:01:42,026
guys that do whatever it takes
to progress their sport.
15
00:01:49,735 --> 00:01:52,329
Danny's doing what he was meant
to do, and you can see that.
16
00:01:52,613 --> 00:01:55,992
And very few people get to
experience that in their life.
17
00:02:05,751 --> 00:02:08,550
When we first got
to the great wall,
18
00:02:08,837 --> 00:02:10,760
We were just like,
"oh, my god.
19
00:02:11,048 --> 00:02:14,598
This guy
is gonna kill himself".
20
00:02:14,885 --> 00:02:19,812
They would never let anyone
build something like that here.
21
00:02:23,352 --> 00:02:26,356
There was a mountain biker
that jumped the wall
22
00:02:26,647 --> 00:02:28,570
And careened
to the bottom, dead.
23
00:02:28,857 --> 00:02:32,487
His ramp wasn't
built properly.
24
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,578
It was
gut-wrenching for me.
25
00:02:38,075 --> 00:02:42,797
The outcome
of the end of it
26
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,835
Was what I was
always afraid to face.
27
00:03:22,285 --> 00:03:25,630
I'd heard
about China for years.
28
00:03:25,914 --> 00:03:28,212
Danny was on a flight
29
00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:31,219
And actually saw
the great wall from the plane,
30
00:03:31,503 --> 00:03:32,846
And I remember
him joking like,
31
00:03:33,130 --> 00:03:34,973
"Yeah, I'm gonna jump
over that thing".
32
00:03:35,257 --> 00:03:37,601
I don't remember hearing
how it all came together.
33
00:03:37,884 --> 00:03:41,980
I just kind of remember
hearing it was going to happen.
34
00:03:45,016 --> 00:03:49,237
The role of a manager
is to make your visions
35
00:03:49,521 --> 00:03:51,148
And your dreams real.
36
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,865
Danny wanted to jump
the great wall of China,
37
00:03:55,152 --> 00:03:59,077
And ray and I felt
that we could help do that.
38
00:03:59,364 --> 00:04:01,458
This is
what the next chapter
39
00:04:01,742 --> 00:04:03,369
Of Danny's life
was all about,
40
00:04:03,660 --> 00:04:08,006
And we were the guys
selected to make that happen.
41
00:04:08,290 --> 00:04:11,043
So we go
to China fueled by a dream
42
00:04:11,334 --> 00:04:14,679
And ambition
and nothing much else.
43
00:04:30,437 --> 00:04:33,190
We pull up
to Ju Young Guan gate...
44
00:04:35,066 --> 00:04:38,286
and it's impressive.
45
00:04:38,570 --> 00:04:41,289
The wall,
in some spots is...
46
00:04:41,573 --> 00:04:45,328
I guess it's just not as big
as I envisioned in some spots.
47
00:04:45,619 --> 00:04:47,212
I wouldn't want
to cheat on this one,
48
00:04:47,496 --> 00:04:49,294
So I'm trying to find
some section on...
49
00:04:49,581 --> 00:04:51,049
we're trying to find
a section here
50
00:04:51,333 --> 00:04:53,506
That would actually be
a legitimate jump for me.
51
00:04:53,794 --> 00:04:56,513
There's definitely spots
on the wall that are enormous,
52
00:04:56,797 --> 00:04:58,799
But there are some
that aren't, and I just...
53
00:04:59,090 --> 00:05:01,309
you know,
I wouldn't feel right
54
00:05:01,593 --> 00:05:03,721
Unless I found a spot
that was really magnif...
55
00:05:04,012 --> 00:05:06,310
Magnisi... nificent.
Sorry, it's freezing out.
56
00:05:06,598 --> 00:05:07,690
I can barely talk.
57
00:05:07,974 --> 00:05:10,272
So, I think right here...
58
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,483
jumping from there
over to here
59
00:05:12,771 --> 00:05:14,444
Is the widest spot
of the wall,
60
00:05:14,731 --> 00:05:17,154
Which I feel does the most
justice for skateboarding
61
00:05:17,442 --> 00:05:20,491
And the possibility of breaking
the world record.
62
00:05:23,782 --> 00:05:26,581
We come
back from China,
63
00:05:26,868 --> 00:05:29,963
And Danny's on the phone
with me at midnight
64
00:05:30,247 --> 00:05:32,295
Going, "dude,
is this real?"
65
00:05:32,582 --> 00:05:34,004
And I'm like,
"I don't know.
66
00:05:34,292 --> 00:05:36,090
"But here's your job:
67
00:05:36,378 --> 00:05:39,097
"Prepare,
have your bag packed,
68
00:05:39,422 --> 00:05:43,518
And you're jumping until I'm
telling you you're not jumping".
69
00:05:53,311 --> 00:05:56,064
I think
the story really started
70
00:05:56,356 --> 00:05:58,484
Before my brother
and I were even born.
71
00:05:58,775 --> 00:06:01,995
It started out with my mom
and my father getting together,
72
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,202
And then taking off
and going up the coast
73
00:06:04,489 --> 00:06:08,995
In their VW van
and following the hippie trail.
74
00:06:09,286 --> 00:06:11,630
Everything
that Dennis
75
00:06:11,913 --> 00:06:14,632
Ever told me
about life happened.
76
00:06:14,916 --> 00:06:19,547
Within 45 minutes
of me first meeting him,
77
00:06:19,838 --> 00:06:24,344
He told me that I was
gonna have two sons with him,
78
00:06:24,634 --> 00:06:27,729
And that he was put
on this earth
79
00:06:28,013 --> 00:06:31,517
To teach me
how to be a survivor.
80
00:06:31,808 --> 00:06:34,436
From that moment on,
81
00:06:34,728 --> 00:06:37,698
We were connected.
82
00:06:37,981 --> 00:06:40,985
Dennis and I
were on an adventure.
83
00:06:42,819 --> 00:06:44,742
We went up to Oregon,
84
00:06:45,030 --> 00:06:47,408
And all the pieces
of the puzzle
85
00:06:47,699 --> 00:06:49,326
Started being
put together.
86
00:06:57,375 --> 00:07:00,504
Damon was so mellow,
87
00:07:00,795 --> 00:07:04,049
And Danny wore me down.
88
00:07:04,341 --> 00:07:05,843
That first year,
89
00:07:06,134 --> 00:07:09,434
I thought I was gonna lose
my mind with him.
90
00:07:09,721 --> 00:07:13,066
Little did I know
years down the road
91
00:07:13,350 --> 00:07:15,273
I would go through
a lot more
92
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,609
Than what I went through
the first year of life with him.
93
00:07:24,235 --> 00:07:28,661
We got tired
of the rain in Oregon,
94
00:07:28,949 --> 00:07:31,668
So we ended up moving
back to Carlsbad.
95
00:07:31,952 --> 00:07:35,001
Dennis's ex-wife worked
96
00:07:35,288 --> 00:07:37,256
For the gas
and electric company.
97
00:07:37,540 --> 00:07:40,510
When we went to get
our electricity hooked up,
98
00:07:40,794 --> 00:07:44,924
That's when she found out
Dennis was back in town,
99
00:07:45,215 --> 00:07:48,014
And she had him
put in jail
100
00:07:48,301 --> 00:07:53,558
For 90 days
for a $50 child-support payment.
101
00:07:53,848 --> 00:07:56,476
And nine days
after he was in there,
102
00:07:56,768 --> 00:08:00,022
He got hung
in jail.
103
00:08:05,694 --> 00:08:10,575
That day was
the worst day of my life.
104
00:08:12,701 --> 00:08:16,080
And that's where the kids
and I began our journey
105
00:08:16,371 --> 00:08:19,420
As the three musketeers,
I call it.
106
00:08:27,090 --> 00:08:31,015
I don't really remember
my father dying.
107
00:08:31,302 --> 00:08:33,555
I don't really remember
the period of time
108
00:08:33,847 --> 00:08:37,067
Before him
and our stepdad, Tim,
109
00:08:37,350 --> 00:08:40,274
But I clearly remember
us living with Tim
110
00:08:40,562 --> 00:08:42,860
After my mom and him
got married.
111
00:08:47,944 --> 00:08:50,163
Tim was like
a kid himself,
112
00:08:50,447 --> 00:08:54,293
So when he met Damon
and Danny, it was on.
113
00:08:56,911 --> 00:08:59,630
Tim came into
my brother and mine's life
114
00:08:59,914 --> 00:09:02,633
And took on
that father-figure role.
115
00:09:02,917 --> 00:09:04,134
He surfed every day,
116
00:09:04,419 --> 00:09:06,467
And lived that surfer/
bohemian lifestyle.
117
00:09:06,755 --> 00:09:09,975
We started tuning in
to that piece of culture
118
00:09:10,258 --> 00:09:12,386
That was really free.
119
00:09:12,677 --> 00:09:16,853
He gave my kids
exactly what they needed
120
00:09:17,140 --> 00:09:19,313
At that point
in their lives.
121
00:09:26,524 --> 00:09:27,776
He was really good
with his hands and wood,
122
00:09:28,068 --> 00:09:29,695
And he would build
us skateboards.
123
00:09:29,986 --> 00:09:31,704
He wouldn't go buy us a skateboard,
he'd actually build it,
124
00:09:31,988 --> 00:09:34,332
And the thing would have
its shape and everything.
125
00:09:34,616 --> 00:09:36,038
It was amazing.
126
00:09:36,326 --> 00:09:38,420
We really little, and we'd ride
them around out front.
127
00:09:38,703 --> 00:09:40,421
Danny was a three-year-old,
128
00:09:40,705 --> 00:09:45,211
And he mastered how to make
that skateboard work for him.
129
00:09:45,502 --> 00:09:49,302
He figured out that
if he put a knee on the board
130
00:09:49,589 --> 00:09:51,387
And pushed
with his other foot,
131
00:09:51,674 --> 00:09:53,768
He could keep up with Damon
132
00:09:54,052 --> 00:09:56,601
Trying to get
away from him on his bike.
133
00:09:56,888 --> 00:09:59,732
Danny rode
it fearlessly.
134
00:10:00,016 --> 00:10:02,110
Tim gave them an opportunity
to experience that,
135
00:10:02,393 --> 00:10:03,645
Wasn't overprotective,
136
00:10:03,937 --> 00:10:06,611
Wasn't afraid
of them getting hurt.
137
00:10:06,898 --> 00:10:10,198
Everywhere we went,
we had to take the skateboard.
138
00:10:10,485 --> 00:10:14,035
So, the skateboard was...
139
00:10:14,322 --> 00:10:17,576
the beginning
of Danny Way.
140
00:10:28,586 --> 00:10:31,465
There has
to be some sort of visual
141
00:10:31,756 --> 00:10:33,633
That captivates you
in such a way
142
00:10:33,925 --> 00:10:36,348
That you just
fall in love with it
143
00:10:36,636 --> 00:10:38,638
So that nothing will get
in the way of you
144
00:10:38,930 --> 00:10:41,399
Wanting to get on your board
and create,
145
00:10:41,683 --> 00:10:45,654
Play, and have fun
and outdo your own limitations,
146
00:10:45,937 --> 00:10:48,941
And I think that moment
that captivated Danny Way
147
00:10:49,232 --> 00:10:51,485
Was that Del Mar moment.
148
00:10:51,818 --> 00:10:53,661
I remember
my brother and I, like,
149
00:10:53,945 --> 00:10:55,788
Seeing it from the freeway
and seeing guys
150
00:10:56,072 --> 00:10:59,042
Flying out of pools and stuff,
and we were freaking out.
151
00:10:59,325 --> 00:11:01,373
My dad turned around
and took us straight there
152
00:11:01,661 --> 00:11:02,958
And got us memberships.
153
00:11:03,246 --> 00:11:04,919
I was too young,
so we had to lie about my age.
154
00:11:06,916 --> 00:11:08,543
When the park started
in 1978,
155
00:11:08,835 --> 00:11:10,803
It was the full-on boom
of skateboarding.
156
00:11:11,087 --> 00:11:15,012
We had, like, six people
working at a time.
157
00:11:15,300 --> 00:11:16,301
You know,
I think of those days...
158
00:11:16,593 --> 00:11:18,095
I'd wake up
at 8:00 in the morning
159
00:11:18,386 --> 00:11:19,888
And go to Denny’s,
get breakfast,
160
00:11:20,180 --> 00:11:21,807
Come to the park, be the
first one in there skating.
161
00:11:22,098 --> 00:11:23,224
It was sheer passion.
162
00:11:23,516 --> 00:11:25,689
Soon as I hit
that park, padded up,
163
00:11:25,977 --> 00:11:27,820
Paid my money,
and, like, skated in there,
164
00:11:28,104 --> 00:11:30,027
I just knew I wanted
to be part of that scene.
165
00:11:30,315 --> 00:11:32,033
I still remember
166
00:11:32,317 --> 00:11:34,445
My initial experience
at the park.
167
00:11:34,736 --> 00:11:36,830
To hear the sound
of the wheels
168
00:11:37,113 --> 00:11:38,786
And the bearings
on the concrete,
169
00:11:39,073 --> 00:11:40,325
Just, like,
that was it.
170
00:11:40,617 --> 00:11:44,042
There was no turning back,
completely hooked.
171
00:11:44,329 --> 00:11:46,502
All the best skateboarders
skated at Del Mar.
172
00:11:46,789 --> 00:11:48,382
If you want to get better
173
00:11:48,666 --> 00:11:50,964
And make a name
for yourself, it's there.
174
00:11:51,252 --> 00:11:53,505
Del Mar definitely
defined my personality.
175
00:11:53,796 --> 00:11:55,139
It gave me
a sense of identity.
176
00:11:55,423 --> 00:11:56,925
It gave me a community,
177
00:11:57,217 --> 00:11:59,345
a group that I really
enjoyed hanging out with,
178
00:11:59,636 --> 00:12:03,482
and it set me apart
from the normal high school kid.
179
00:12:03,765 --> 00:12:06,359
The first time I went to Del Mar
skate park, it was a done deal.
180
00:12:06,643 --> 00:12:09,146
Like, I was addicted so fast
that it's the only thing
181
00:12:09,437 --> 00:12:11,405
I could think about
from that point on.
182
00:12:11,689 --> 00:12:14,158
Our stepfather, Tim, he
would take us to the skate park
183
00:12:14,442 --> 00:12:17,321
When Danny was, you know, six years
old, and I was eight years old.
184
00:12:17,612 --> 00:12:20,491
He'd go down and pay for them
to hang out there all day.
185
00:12:20,782 --> 00:12:24,127
It was almost, for me,
like a baby-sitting program.
186
00:12:24,410 --> 00:12:29,166
Some people spent
every waking hour at that park.
187
00:12:29,457 --> 00:12:31,835
They came when it opened
at 9:00 in the morning
188
00:12:32,126 --> 00:12:34,003
till 11:00 at night.
189
00:12:34,295 --> 00:12:36,013
When I
first saw Danny,
190
00:12:36,297 --> 00:12:37,844
he was just
a little kid from Vista
191
00:12:38,132 --> 00:12:40,180
Trying to come into this scene
that was Del Mar,
192
00:12:40,468 --> 00:12:41,970
And, like, we were always
kind of tough on him.
193
00:12:42,262 --> 00:12:44,185
Unfortunately
he was the little kid,
194
00:12:44,472 --> 00:12:46,099
And we were
the big 14-year-olds,
195
00:12:46,391 --> 00:12:48,393
So, you know,
picking on him,
196
00:12:48,685 --> 00:12:50,028
Hiding his board...
197
00:12:50,311 --> 00:12:53,030
I was always smaller
than most my friends,
198
00:12:53,314 --> 00:12:55,533
So I was in a position
where I had to earn respect,
199
00:12:55,817 --> 00:12:58,616
And I always was trying
to prove myself.
200
00:12:58,903 --> 00:13:01,076
We could Danny to do anything,
and he would do it.
201
00:13:01,364 --> 00:13:03,458
He's hang out with
our neighborhood friends then,
202
00:13:03,741 --> 00:13:06,039
And be like, "hey, Danny,
go kiss that girl,"
203
00:13:06,327 --> 00:13:08,455
And he would do it,
just whatever it took,
204
00:13:08,746 --> 00:13:11,169
To get the attention
and respect of the group.
205
00:13:15,753 --> 00:13:19,803
When I hit 28,
I started partying a lot.
206
00:13:20,091 --> 00:13:23,220
I realized that
with alcohol and drugs
207
00:13:23,511 --> 00:13:27,436
I could mask
the pain of Dennis dying.
208
00:13:27,724 --> 00:13:32,025
I would leave and not come home
for a few days.
209
00:13:32,729 --> 00:13:36,074
Mary had a hard time
letting go
210
00:13:36,357 --> 00:13:39,236
Of what happened
to, uh, Danny's father.
211
00:13:39,527 --> 00:13:44,499
I think that haunted her,
and it affected the kids.
212
00:13:44,782 --> 00:13:46,830
Our mom was gone a lot,
213
00:13:47,118 --> 00:13:49,837
And so for Danny and I,
214
00:13:50,121 --> 00:13:53,125
Skateboarding really
became our family.
215
00:13:53,416 --> 00:13:56,465
We were with each other
every single day skating.
216
00:13:56,753 --> 00:13:58,096
It was just
what we did.
217
00:13:58,379 --> 00:14:01,974
There was no alternative.
There was no option.
218
00:14:02,258 --> 00:14:04,681
After awhile,
219
00:14:04,969 --> 00:14:08,439
I thought the grass was greener
on the other side,
220
00:14:08,723 --> 00:14:12,227
And I caused my marriage
to go upside down.
221
00:14:12,518 --> 00:14:16,944
And that's when Tim
and I parted the sheets.
222
00:14:17,231 --> 00:14:19,199
I got a lot of backlash,
223
00:14:19,484 --> 00:14:22,488
Not so much from Damon,
but from Danny.
224
00:14:24,447 --> 00:14:26,495
Danny's had
a level of anger inside him
225
00:14:26,783 --> 00:14:28,205
For as long
as I can remember.
226
00:14:28,493 --> 00:14:30,871
He had a particular thing
with my mom,
227
00:14:31,162 --> 00:14:33,540
And I think a lot of that
was just Danny's anger
228
00:14:33,831 --> 00:14:35,504
And rage around
losing our dad,
229
00:14:35,792 --> 00:14:38,636
Then losing
our stepdad.
230
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:40,638
My mom had
so many different boyfriends,
231
00:14:40,922 --> 00:14:42,890
From drug dealers
to just abusive guys
232
00:14:43,174 --> 00:14:44,892
Who used to beat
the shit out of her
233
00:14:45,176 --> 00:14:49,226
And my brother and I,
and, um, you know...
234
00:14:49,514 --> 00:14:53,815
yeah, it's just...
235
00:14:56,187 --> 00:14:58,531
The police came
to our house a lot...
236
00:14:58,815 --> 00:15:00,909
a lot in Vista.
237
00:15:01,192 --> 00:15:03,911
So, my kids grew up
238
00:15:04,195 --> 00:15:07,199
Never knowing what they
were gonna come home to.
239
00:15:12,245 --> 00:15:14,748
Whenever things
got really difficult at home,
240
00:15:15,039 --> 00:15:17,292
Danny would always ask
to go live with Tim.
241
00:15:17,583 --> 00:15:19,335
He was always so happy
around Tim.
242
00:15:19,627 --> 00:15:20,924
He had a mentor,
243
00:15:21,212 --> 00:15:22,964
He had somebody
that could support him
244
00:15:23,256 --> 00:15:26,351
And act as a father figure
in his life.
245
00:15:26,634 --> 00:15:29,262
You have scars from scraping
himself on the sidewalk.
246
00:15:29,554 --> 00:15:32,433
You also have scars
in your mind
247
00:15:32,723 --> 00:15:34,350
That you never
can get rid of.
248
00:15:34,642 --> 00:15:36,690
Sometimes it's good
to talk about them,
249
00:15:36,978 --> 00:15:38,776
But sometimes
it's just too painful.
250
00:15:39,063 --> 00:15:40,280
So, what do we do?
251
00:15:40,565 --> 00:15:43,034
We go out and find
something that's fun.
252
00:15:43,317 --> 00:15:45,490
Sometimes it's dangerous,
but oh, well.
253
00:15:45,778 --> 00:15:48,531
It's worth it.
254
00:15:48,823 --> 00:15:50,370
We've always been out
to prove ourselves
255
00:15:50,658 --> 00:15:51,955
Because of having
to make up
256
00:15:52,243 --> 00:15:54,496
For what we didn't have
in the family structure.
257
00:15:54,787 --> 00:15:58,792
What comes along with that
is a strong, competitive spirit.
258
00:15:59,083 --> 00:16:02,713
When I was watching Danny,
he had a focus.
259
00:16:03,004 --> 00:16:06,178
He made up his mind
to do this one trick,
260
00:16:06,466 --> 00:16:09,561
And he would keep trying it
until he did.
261
00:16:09,844 --> 00:16:11,391
I mean, he'd get
beat up, man...
262
00:16:11,679 --> 00:16:13,477
Bam! Sometimes...
263
00:16:16,267 --> 00:16:17,894
but he'd just
get back up.
264
00:16:21,230 --> 00:16:23,528
will he survive?
265
00:16:27,737 --> 00:16:30,081
Gale Webb was an interesting
person in Danny's life.
266
00:16:30,364 --> 00:16:32,833
She took Danny
under her wing,
267
00:16:33,117 --> 00:16:36,337
Got him hooked up in the
demo circuit she was doing,
268
00:16:36,621 --> 00:16:39,249
And provided some kind
of structure for Danny.
269
00:16:39,540 --> 00:16:41,258
At the beginning,
he was kind of shy,
270
00:16:41,542 --> 00:16:43,840
And then I generate
the excitement.
271
00:16:44,128 --> 00:16:46,756
I go, "oh, you like that?
Come on, we wanna hear you!"
272
00:16:47,048 --> 00:16:49,426
He'd look at the crowd,
and he would just be different
273
00:16:49,717 --> 00:16:52,061
With the crowd because they
were rooting for him,
274
00:16:52,345 --> 00:16:56,020
And all of a sudden he'd start
pulling off some of these tricks.
275
00:16:56,307 --> 00:16:57,934
When I first heard
Danny's name,
276
00:16:58,226 --> 00:17:00,228
I know we were doing
a demo for a shop in Vista,
277
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,194
And the shop was a-buzz
about Danny.
278
00:17:03,481 --> 00:17:07,452
Witt hired a limousine to take
Tony and some other people over,
279
00:17:07,735 --> 00:17:10,033
And then I jumped
in the limo with them,
280
00:17:10,321 --> 00:17:13,074
So that was the first time
I shot photos of Danny.
281
00:17:13,366 --> 00:17:14,913
I think it was
a little intimidating,
282
00:17:15,201 --> 00:17:17,454
Because we all came,
like, the hoard of us came
283
00:17:17,745 --> 00:17:19,292
And descended
on the ramp,
284
00:17:19,580 --> 00:17:22,254
But at the same time he really
wanted to show what he had.
285
00:17:22,542 --> 00:17:24,089
I saw Tony look.
286
00:17:24,377 --> 00:17:26,471
He look at me
and he goes...
287
00:17:26,754 --> 00:17:29,348
let's hear it for Danny!
288
00:17:29,632 --> 00:17:31,305
Whoo! Danny Way!
289
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,899
Two months
before the event,
290
00:17:46,190 --> 00:17:48,284
We got permission to jump
at the great wall.
291
00:18:21,684 --> 00:18:24,028
We have a location,
292
00:18:24,312 --> 00:18:27,236
But we still need
money to build
293
00:18:27,523 --> 00:18:30,026
The biggest skateboard ramp
that's ever been built.
294
00:18:30,318 --> 00:18:32,787
Dc, who was Danny's
main sponsor,
295
00:18:33,070 --> 00:18:35,744
They were hearing us
going, "this looks real,"
296
00:18:36,032 --> 00:18:39,002
But they weren't responding,
and it was radio silence.
297
00:18:39,285 --> 00:18:42,164
When Danny
had the idea it was amazing,
298
00:18:42,455 --> 00:18:45,299
But he was asking us
to put up a lot of money
299
00:18:45,583 --> 00:18:48,132
To build a ramp that we don't know
what the end result's gonna be.
300
00:18:49,587 --> 00:18:51,635
We had such
a short amount of time.
301
00:18:51,922 --> 00:18:53,469
I knew right then and there
302
00:18:53,758 --> 00:18:57,228
This was gonna be
a very massive project.
303
00:18:57,511 --> 00:18:59,388
It was gonna take the toll
on all of us
304
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,103
In certain ways that we
just could never imagine.
305
00:19:13,611 --> 00:19:15,989
I remember
spending the night
306
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,032
At Damon's and Danny's
all the time
307
00:19:18,324 --> 00:19:20,167
Because it was a little
more liberal than my house.
308
00:19:20,451 --> 00:19:22,169
So, I got to just
kind of hang out,
309
00:19:22,453 --> 00:19:24,672
I could just smoke cigarettes,
and skate the miniramp.
310
00:19:29,710 --> 00:19:33,431
As a skateboarder and as a
young kid, it was badass.
311
00:19:33,714 --> 00:19:35,512
I had this group
of friends in Vista,
312
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,474
This really talented group
of skateboarders,
313
00:19:38,761 --> 00:19:41,184
And Danny really wanted
to be part of that group.
314
00:19:41,472 --> 00:19:43,190
That was my crew.
It was my people.
315
00:19:43,474 --> 00:19:45,602
We'd go see movies,
try to scam on chicks,
316
00:19:45,893 --> 00:19:48,612
And skate all
the areas all around.
317
00:19:48,896 --> 00:19:50,193
Hi, what's
your name?
318
00:19:50,481 --> 00:19:52,734
- Courtney.
- Amy.
319
00:19:53,025 --> 00:19:56,370
- Come over here.
- See if you can get a date and I'll film it.
320
00:19:56,654 --> 00:19:59,282
Those were my friends
I skated with every day,
321
00:19:59,573 --> 00:20:01,826
And Danny would tag along
and skate with us.
322
00:20:02,118 --> 00:20:04,541
My brother always said
they were his friends.
323
00:20:04,829 --> 00:20:06,297
They always defined me
as the young guy
324
00:20:06,580 --> 00:20:08,298
Who was too young
to be a part of their crew.
325
00:20:08,582 --> 00:20:10,550
I was like, "we all skate.
What do you mean?"
326
00:20:10,835 --> 00:20:12,678
I just remember
just boards flying,
327
00:20:12,962 --> 00:20:15,215
You know, and elbows,
slight little punches
328
00:20:15,506 --> 00:20:17,600
And jabs in the stomach
and boards in the shin.
329
00:20:17,883 --> 00:20:21,228
Danny skated harder
than anybody else,
330
00:20:21,512 --> 00:20:24,265
So he wasn't going anywhere, and
that caused friction, you know?
331
00:20:24,557 --> 00:20:28,107
Damon really was
a big influence on Danny.
332
00:20:28,394 --> 00:20:30,237
He just wanted to emulate
his older brother,
333
00:20:30,521 --> 00:20:32,068
And he pretty much
would do anything...
334
00:20:32,356 --> 00:20:34,700
or try to do anything
his older brother did.
335
00:20:34,984 --> 00:20:37,612
We were skateboarding
Vista high. It was me and Damon.
336
00:20:37,903 --> 00:20:41,077
This jackass rolls up
and just cold-cocked Damon.
337
00:20:41,365 --> 00:20:42,662
And Damon fell down,
hit his head on the curb.
338
00:20:42,950 --> 00:20:44,873
There was, like,
a little bit of a scuffle.
339
00:20:45,161 --> 00:20:48,256
Then it kind of just died down.
It wasn't that big a deal.
340
00:20:48,539 --> 00:20:50,257
We skated
for a little bit longer,
341
00:20:50,541 --> 00:20:51,838
And then I took him home.
342
00:20:52,126 --> 00:20:53,844
On the way home,
his head's, like...
343
00:20:54,128 --> 00:20:56,756
"I got a headache," as you would
when you get punched in the face,
344
00:20:57,047 --> 00:20:59,266
So it didn't alarm me.
345
00:21:01,552 --> 00:21:03,099
I had gone to work.
346
00:21:03,387 --> 00:21:05,105
Danny called me
and said,
347
00:21:05,389 --> 00:21:08,689
"Mom, Damon's eyeballs
are in the back of his head".
348
00:21:08,976 --> 00:21:11,024
And I hurried home,
and Damon was
349
00:21:11,312 --> 00:21:13,531
In full-blown
epileptic seizures.
350
00:21:13,814 --> 00:21:17,114
When we arrived
at Trl-city hospital,
351
00:21:17,401 --> 00:21:19,574
The doctor said,
"give or take 15 minutes,
352
00:21:19,862 --> 00:21:22,206
We're gonna lose him".
353
00:21:25,618 --> 00:21:28,542
His whole left side
had been paralyzed.
354
00:21:31,165 --> 00:21:35,295
When Damon was
going through that injury,
355
00:21:35,586 --> 00:21:38,465
I just remember Danny just being
really focused on skateboarding.
356
00:21:38,756 --> 00:21:40,474
He was just ripping
harder than ever.
357
00:21:40,758 --> 00:21:42,601
It's almost like he put
all his pain
358
00:21:42,885 --> 00:21:45,889
Or whatever he was going through
100% into skateboarding.
359
00:21:46,180 --> 00:21:49,059
Danny was on a mission
to turn pro
360
00:21:49,350 --> 00:21:50,943
For the both of them.
361
00:22:00,236 --> 00:22:02,079
When I first
got introduced to Danny,
362
00:22:02,363 --> 00:22:03,740
It was through
a friend of mine.
363
00:22:04,031 --> 00:22:06,125
He goes, "there's this
little ripper kid
364
00:22:06,408 --> 00:22:08,502
"Named Danny Way,
and he should be on Hosoi.
365
00:22:08,786 --> 00:22:11,164
"He's got guts
and he's just crazy.
366
00:22:11,455 --> 00:22:13,583
He just goes for it". And I was
like, "really? All right".
367
00:22:13,874 --> 00:22:15,842
And then I meet him,
and he's this little blond kid
368
00:22:16,126 --> 00:22:17,548
With braces
and, like, freckles,
369
00:22:17,837 --> 00:22:20,590
And a little guy, and I'm like,
"this kid's crazy?"
370
00:22:20,881 --> 00:22:23,600
You know what I mean? Looking at
him, you would never think...
371
00:22:23,884 --> 00:22:26,558
you know, he looked like
Dennis the menace.
372
00:22:26,846 --> 00:22:30,020
Next thing you know, we're
going to this demo in Arizona,
373
00:22:30,307 --> 00:22:32,355
And we go to this hotel,
and he just... boom!
374
00:22:32,643 --> 00:22:34,441
Front-flips off the bed
onto the ground.
375
00:22:34,728 --> 00:22:37,356
I was like,
"this kid's crazy.
376
00:22:37,648 --> 00:22:39,366
What can he do
on a skateboard?"
377
00:22:51,787 --> 00:22:53,789
I was skating some miniramp
by myself or something.
378
00:22:54,081 --> 00:22:56,379
My brother comes up,
and he's like, "yo!
379
00:22:56,667 --> 00:22:59,466
Danny Way is here!"
380
00:22:59,753 --> 00:23:02,973
I had my idea
of what skateboarding could be
381
00:23:03,257 --> 00:23:06,807
And how far a kid like myself
could take it at that age.
382
00:23:07,094 --> 00:23:10,348
That whole perception
just got shattered on the spot.
383
00:23:12,099 --> 00:23:14,818
When I think of a trick
and I'm sitting at my house,
384
00:23:15,102 --> 00:23:16,900
I come down here
and learn it.
385
00:23:17,187 --> 00:23:20,817
He would
just think about tricks,
386
00:23:21,108 --> 00:23:22,576
And then he would
go out and do them.
387
00:23:22,860 --> 00:23:26,910
Between 11 to 13 was
like a game changer.
388
00:23:27,197 --> 00:23:29,666
I remember seeing Danny doing stuff
that doesn't even have names.
389
00:23:29,950 --> 00:23:34,581
Just a clickety-clack blunt this
to board to shuffle to revert.
390
00:23:34,872 --> 00:23:37,421
I don't think there's
ever been a 13-year-old kid
391
00:23:37,708 --> 00:23:39,255
What would go after
the tricks
392
00:23:39,543 --> 00:23:41,966
And just skating in general
the way Danny did.
393
00:23:42,254 --> 00:23:44,348
I remember realizing
394
00:23:44,632 --> 00:23:47,431
There's something about
the way he's skating
395
00:23:47,718 --> 00:23:49,846
That I'm not gonna be able
to keep up with,
396
00:23:50,137 --> 00:23:52,105
And here I am
in my first couple of years
397
00:23:52,389 --> 00:23:55,438
Of being a professional skater,
and I'm thinking,
398
00:23:55,726 --> 00:23:57,228
"I'm done".
399
00:24:04,818 --> 00:24:06,161
yeah, Danny!
400
00:24:25,839 --> 00:24:28,683
♪ Had no future ♪
401
00:24:28,968 --> 00:24:30,686
♪ Remember youth ♪
402
00:24:30,970 --> 00:24:33,223
♪ No pop culture ♪
403
00:24:33,514 --> 00:24:35,892
There have been
a few people in skateboarding
404
00:24:36,183 --> 00:24:42,190
That have truly been able
to not just spot talent
405
00:24:42,481 --> 00:24:46,236
But allow that talent
to be the best it can be.
406
00:24:46,527 --> 00:24:47,904
Mike saw talent,
407
00:24:48,195 --> 00:24:52,996
But then he also was able
to bring it out of people.
408
00:24:53,283 --> 00:24:54,705
Mike would take kids
409
00:24:54,994 --> 00:24:56,496
Under his wings
and help them along.
410
00:24:56,787 --> 00:24:59,165
He could get you to do things
that you didn't want to do.
411
00:24:59,456 --> 00:25:00,753
I mean, he would push you
412
00:25:01,041 --> 00:25:02,759
To get you to go
to another level
413
00:25:03,043 --> 00:25:04,545
That you're not
comfortable with.
414
00:25:04,837 --> 00:25:06,931
But yet he could see it and say,
"oh, yeah, you can do that".
415
00:25:07,214 --> 00:25:10,718
Mike
was a character.
416
00:25:11,010 --> 00:25:12,762
Big-ass fanny pack
and this ponytail
417
00:25:13,053 --> 00:25:14,680
And his voice...
I can still hear it.
418
00:25:14,972 --> 00:25:16,974
You know how you don't see
somebody forever
419
00:25:17,266 --> 00:25:19,769
And you kind of lose their...
lose their face?
420
00:25:20,060 --> 00:25:22,609
I can hear his voice.
421
00:25:22,896 --> 00:25:24,523
Yeah, john.
422
00:25:24,815 --> 00:25:27,284
Yeah!
423
00:25:27,568 --> 00:25:29,787
I felt really close to Mike
almost from the get go.
424
00:25:30,070 --> 00:25:32,619
Come back
over, Matt.
425
00:25:32,906 --> 00:25:34,783
Yeah, Matt.
426
00:25:35,075 --> 00:25:36,122
He always had my back.
427
00:25:36,410 --> 00:25:38,037
I just felt like
this was different.
428
00:25:38,328 --> 00:25:40,422
This wasn't some guy I was
calling every once in a while,
429
00:25:40,706 --> 00:25:41,958
Like, "hey, man,
I need a sticker".
430
00:25:42,249 --> 00:25:44,968
He was, like, in your grill
every five seconds,
431
00:25:45,252 --> 00:25:47,220
And not in a bad way,
just close to you,
432
00:25:47,504 --> 00:25:49,973
Making sure things
were going your way.
433
00:25:50,257 --> 00:25:52,885
Next up, we got
a local boy from Vista.
434
00:25:53,177 --> 00:25:55,396
yeah, man. Whoo!
435
00:26:00,642 --> 00:26:02,315
Mike really cared
for everybody
436
00:26:02,603 --> 00:26:04,321
And was trying
to make it all work.
437
00:26:04,605 --> 00:26:07,825
Ripped it! That was it, dude.
That was it.
438
00:26:08,108 --> 00:26:11,078
There was
so much new young talent
439
00:26:11,361 --> 00:26:14,661
That was coming along in this
new wave of skateboarding.
440
00:26:14,948 --> 00:26:16,291
We were right
in the middle of it,
441
00:26:16,575 --> 00:26:18,498
And it was being created
right then and there.
442
00:26:27,961 --> 00:26:30,339
Mike and I were talking,
and Mike's like,
443
00:26:30,631 --> 00:26:32,008
"Have you heard
of this kid, Danny Way?"
444
00:26:32,299 --> 00:26:34,597
I go, "yeah, of course.
Yeah, he rides for Powell. "
445
00:26:34,885 --> 00:26:37,263
He's like,
"that kid's phenomenal.
446
00:26:37,554 --> 00:26:38,806
It'd be great
if we had him".
447
00:26:39,098 --> 00:26:41,442
I go, "you're not gonna
take him from Powell".
448
00:26:41,725 --> 00:26:43,853
Powell's the number-one company
at the time.
449
00:26:44,144 --> 00:26:45,441
This became
a challenge for Mike,
450
00:26:45,729 --> 00:26:46,696
You know, just personally,
451
00:26:46,980 --> 00:26:48,232
Because Danny was on
and then he was off.
452
00:26:48,524 --> 00:26:49,821
It took us a while.
453
00:26:50,109 --> 00:26:53,079
All of a sudden a contest
comes up in Houston,
454
00:26:53,362 --> 00:26:54,614
Shut up & skate,
455
00:26:54,905 --> 00:26:57,624
Big, big vert contest
on the metal ramp back there.
456
00:26:57,908 --> 00:27:00,957
Danny was upset
because Powell
457
00:27:01,245 --> 00:27:02,622
Wouldn't pay
for him to go there.
458
00:27:02,913 --> 00:27:04,790
And Mike said, "no problem.
I'm gonna have you go there,
459
00:27:05,082 --> 00:27:06,800
But by the time you do,
you're riding for me".
460
00:27:10,087 --> 00:27:12,636
For me to leave Powell
to join a start-up company
461
00:27:12,923 --> 00:27:17,724
Was a big deal, but Mike
was the reason why.
462
00:27:18,011 --> 00:27:21,390
Mike just had a...
had a calmness about him,
463
00:27:21,682 --> 00:27:27,234
Had a rational disposition
that made Danny comfortable.
464
00:27:27,521 --> 00:27:29,774
He couldn't do
what Danny did,
465
00:27:30,065 --> 00:27:32,989
But he could cultivate
that out of Danny.
466
00:27:40,159 --> 00:27:43,413
Okay, in first place,
you already know this guy.
467
00:27:43,704 --> 00:27:45,081
His name is Danny Way,
468
00:27:45,372 --> 00:27:49,218
Got first place
in sponsored am this morning.
469
00:27:49,501 --> 00:27:54,177
It never occurred to me Danny
was gonna be a pro skater.
470
00:27:54,464 --> 00:27:56,933
I just thought
it was kid's stuff.
471
00:27:57,217 --> 00:28:00,437
I didn't really know
that what was going on
472
00:28:00,721 --> 00:28:03,349
With Danny
was gonna go somewhere.
473
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,439
Mike took Danny
under his wing,
474
00:28:06,727 --> 00:28:09,071
And Danny really liked
being associated with Mike
475
00:28:09,354 --> 00:28:12,107
Because he just had
that ability to get you
476
00:28:12,399 --> 00:28:15,118
To want to be involved
in what he was doing
477
00:28:15,402 --> 00:28:16,779
And believe in
what he was doing.
478
00:28:17,070 --> 00:28:19,994
- I'll go like this.
- Wave like that.
479
00:28:20,282 --> 00:28:21,750
- Cut.
- I gotta stop.
480
00:28:22,034 --> 00:28:25,129
I can't look at Danny...
get over something.
481
00:28:25,412 --> 00:28:27,130
Start back.
Get back a little ways.
482
00:28:27,414 --> 00:28:29,132
Get back a little ways.
Back right here.
483
00:28:29,416 --> 00:28:31,339
There you go. Okay, now go in,
now go crazy.
484
00:28:31,627 --> 00:28:35,973
Mike, Tony,
let me in!
485
00:28:36,256 --> 00:28:39,601
Mike obviously understood the
situation with Danny's home life,
486
00:28:39,885 --> 00:28:42,229
And it was an instant
connection between those two
487
00:28:42,512 --> 00:28:46,233
And immediately took on a sort of
father-figure type relationship.
488
00:28:46,516 --> 00:28:47,768
- Hey.
- Hey, Danny, what's up?
489
00:28:48,060 --> 00:28:49,562
I want to get a part
in the video.
490
00:28:49,853 --> 00:28:51,321
Hey, look, man,
video's already done.
491
00:28:51,605 --> 00:28:53,482
It's all done. There's
no more room in it.
492
00:28:53,774 --> 00:28:54,741
Maybe you can be
in the next one.
493
00:28:55,025 --> 00:28:56,368
But if you need
a board or something,
494
00:28:56,652 --> 00:28:58,370
- Talk to Tony.
- Watch! Watch this.
495
00:29:02,658 --> 00:29:04,376
Tim wasn't
around that much
496
00:29:04,660 --> 00:29:06,583
After him
and Mary split up.
497
00:29:06,870 --> 00:29:08,964
It was becoming
more difficult to figure out
498
00:29:09,248 --> 00:29:10,841
A way to still be
part of their lives.
499
00:29:11,124 --> 00:29:15,504
And him and Danny,
I think, grew apart.
500
00:29:15,796 --> 00:29:17,298
You need a father,
501
00:29:17,589 --> 00:29:19,933
And so if you don't have one
you're looking for one,
502
00:29:20,217 --> 00:29:22,970
And if there's somebody
that can be that for you,
503
00:29:23,262 --> 00:29:25,390
You grab on.
504
00:29:32,729 --> 00:29:36,324
Mike reassured me
that Danny would go somewhere
505
00:29:36,608 --> 00:29:39,031
In the world
with his skateboarding.
506
00:29:39,319 --> 00:29:40,787
He didn't know
where or what,
507
00:29:41,071 --> 00:29:43,790
But he said, "he's got
a lot of potential,
508
00:29:44,074 --> 00:29:46,668
And I'd like
to see him use it".
509
00:29:46,952 --> 00:29:49,375
Here comes Danny Way.
He is really hot.
510
00:29:49,663 --> 00:29:51,210
This kid is 15 years old.
511
00:29:51,498 --> 00:29:53,216
He's the youngest pro
on the tour.
512
00:29:53,500 --> 00:29:55,218
He took a real bad spill
this morning.
513
00:29:55,502 --> 00:29:57,880
He is doing a lot
of flashy tricks out there.
514
00:29:58,171 --> 00:29:59,468
He hurt himself
in practice,
515
00:29:59,756 --> 00:30:01,258
Came down
on his tailbone very hard,
516
00:30:01,550 --> 00:30:03,393
And yet he has managed
to pull himself together
517
00:30:03,677 --> 00:30:05,896
And get a nice routine
going here. Oh, very nice!
518
00:30:06,179 --> 00:30:07,556
He does
a 360 transitioning
519
00:30:07,848 --> 00:30:09,566
From the big ramp
to the small ramp.
520
00:30:09,850 --> 00:30:11,022
Very nicely done.
521
00:30:11,310 --> 00:30:12,812
That'll be it
for Danny Way.
522
00:30:13,103 --> 00:30:15,231
Pulling him
out of school,
523
00:30:15,522 --> 00:30:18,492
It was the hardest thing
for me to do.
524
00:30:18,775 --> 00:30:22,245
So, I had to take
a leap of faith.
525
00:30:22,529 --> 00:30:24,873
I believed
in my son enough
526
00:30:25,157 --> 00:30:29,537
To believe that his dream
would come true.
527
00:30:29,828 --> 00:30:32,251
- First place, $2,500...
- Congratulations, Danny.
528
00:30:32,539 --> 00:30:36,840
...goes to the youngest pro
on the circuit, Danny Way!
529
00:30:48,013 --> 00:30:50,607
Danny, first of all, that was
an outstanding performance.
530
00:30:50,891 --> 00:30:52,268
What do you think
did it for you today?
531
00:30:52,559 --> 00:30:53,981
You had a lot
of competition.
532
00:30:54,269 --> 00:30:59,571
Um...
basically, um...
533
00:30:59,858 --> 00:31:03,237
uhhhh...
534
00:31:03,528 --> 00:31:05,030
Let's do it again,
take two.
535
00:31:05,322 --> 00:31:08,292
Well, after a hard-fought
contest, this is our winner.
536
00:31:08,575 --> 00:31:10,452
This is Danny Way, the
youngest pro on the tour.
537
00:31:10,744 --> 00:31:13,714
Do you feel like you were hampered
by your injury at all today,
538
00:31:13,997 --> 00:31:15,965
Or did you skate
through the pain?
539
00:31:16,249 --> 00:31:18,752
It was kind of hard in
practice, but in contest
540
00:31:19,044 --> 00:31:21,467
I didn't think about
anything but staying on,
541
00:31:21,755 --> 00:31:23,553
You know,
busting out.
542
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:25,262
Well, that was one heck
of a comeback.
543
00:31:25,550 --> 00:31:26,676
Again, he hit
the floor.
544
00:31:26,968 --> 00:31:28,345
I saw him a little earlier,
and he hit it hard.
545
00:31:28,637 --> 00:31:29,638
He wasn't feeling
too good,
546
00:31:29,930 --> 00:31:31,648
But he came back
and won the contest.
547
00:31:31,932 --> 00:31:34,230
Once again, Danny Way
is our champion,
548
00:31:34,518 --> 00:31:37,647
And that'll do it now
from Lansing, Michigan.
549
00:31:54,371 --> 00:31:56,339
Quiksilver had
bought dc shoes,
550
00:31:56,623 --> 00:32:00,423
So we go for a meeting
with Bob McKnight,
551
00:32:00,710 --> 00:32:02,178
The chairman
of quiksilver.
552
00:32:02,462 --> 00:32:07,093
And bob writes a check
for the money we needed.
553
00:32:07,384 --> 00:32:09,352
That was one
of those moments where
554
00:32:09,636 --> 00:32:11,934
It finally strikes you
and was like, wait a second.
555
00:32:12,222 --> 00:32:14,190
This really is going
to happen now.
556
00:32:22,732 --> 00:32:24,279
this is a team effort,
557
00:32:24,568 --> 00:32:27,242
So we brought
JT and Brian in
558
00:32:27,529 --> 00:32:32,035
Because they are
the experts in big structures.
559
00:32:32,325 --> 00:32:36,546
With Danny, you're
dealing with history.
560
00:32:36,830 --> 00:32:39,583
The stuff he does is always
so new and so creative,
561
00:32:39,875 --> 00:32:41,422
Like, there is
no norm to go from.
562
00:32:41,710 --> 00:32:43,383
There is no fulcrum point
to start from.
563
00:32:43,670 --> 00:32:46,219
It's like, okay, let's try it
with this and see what happens.
564
00:32:46,506 --> 00:32:49,555
I have a lotto do
with these guys' careers,
565
00:32:49,843 --> 00:32:51,470
Making and breaking them.
566
00:32:51,761 --> 00:32:54,389
I want to see Danny succeed,
that's what I'm there for.
567
00:32:54,681 --> 00:32:57,059
I don't want to see
anybody get hurt.
568
00:32:57,350 --> 00:32:59,603
The challenges
of building a structure
569
00:32:59,895 --> 00:33:02,990
That has not
been built before was huge,
570
00:33:03,273 --> 00:33:05,742
Never mind
in a different country.
571
00:33:10,655 --> 00:33:12,999
Probably get it
here somewhere.
572
00:33:13,283 --> 00:33:15,206
Twenty-one meters.
573
00:33:17,245 --> 00:33:22,046
Twenty-one meters converts
into 68 feet, 10 inches.
574
00:33:22,334 --> 00:33:25,087
- What is it?
- Sixty-eight feet, 10 inches.
575
00:33:31,051 --> 00:33:33,270
- Hello?
- Danny, JT.
576
00:33:33,553 --> 00:33:35,271
JT,
how you doing, man?
577
00:33:35,555 --> 00:33:36,681
- Good, how you doing?
- Good.
578
00:33:36,973 --> 00:33:38,520
Hey, I got
a quick question for you.
579
00:33:38,808 --> 00:33:40,856
I'm sitting here with Brian,
and the scaffolding's going up.
580
00:33:41,144 --> 00:33:43,647
Everything's going good, but we're
actually pulling measurements
581
00:33:43,939 --> 00:33:45,862
Off of, like, distances
and stuff.
582
00:33:46,149 --> 00:33:47,492
It looks like
right now, um,
583
00:33:47,776 --> 00:33:50,199
The distance is
between 65 and 70-foot gap.
584
00:33:50,487 --> 00:33:52,489
Is that
too gnarly or...?
585
00:33:52,781 --> 00:33:54,454
- No.
- Okay.
586
00:33:54,741 --> 00:33:56,118
Nothing's too gnarly.
587
00:33:56,409 --> 00:33:57,786
It's no more
than 70.
588
00:33:58,078 --> 00:34:00,297
Well, 70, that's getting up
there, I mean, yeah.
589
00:34:00,580 --> 00:34:03,049
It changes the game
a little bit, which is good.
590
00:34:03,333 --> 00:34:04,380
- I can do that.
- Okay.
591
00:34:04,668 --> 00:34:07,342
I'm not worried
about it. Um...
592
00:34:07,629 --> 00:34:09,757
okay, I was worried about,
like we discussed earlier,
593
00:34:10,048 --> 00:34:12,050
There was a good 55-foot gap
now that got changed.
594
00:34:12,342 --> 00:34:13,343
I want you
to come out here
595
00:34:13,635 --> 00:34:15,103
And know what you're
getting yourself into
596
00:34:15,387 --> 00:34:16,604
So you're mentally
prepared for it.
597
00:34:16,888 --> 00:34:18,060
No, I'm cool with it.
I'm cool.
598
00:34:18,348 --> 00:34:20,191
- All right, Danny.
- All right, man.
599
00:34:20,475 --> 00:34:22,569
Take care. Talk to you
in a couple of hours.
600
00:34:22,852 --> 00:34:24,195
- Sounds good, JT.
- Okay, bye.
601
00:34:28,984 --> 00:34:31,578
That same thing
that makes Danny tick
602
00:34:31,861 --> 00:34:33,078
Is what makes me tick.
603
00:34:33,363 --> 00:34:34,364
I was just like,
604
00:34:34,656 --> 00:34:37,284
"Yeah, but I've never
done this before".
605
00:34:37,659 --> 00:34:39,627
We all set goals.
606
00:34:39,911 --> 00:34:42,505
It's what makes
you go forward.
607
00:34:42,789 --> 00:34:44,587
Goals can be dangerous.
608
00:35:03,893 --> 00:35:05,520
I'd be coming home
from work
609
00:35:05,812 --> 00:35:07,780
And he had
the little ninja motorcycles,
610
00:35:08,064 --> 00:35:11,534
And I'd see "whooomp!"
Right past me, and I'd go,
611
00:35:11,818 --> 00:35:13,946
"God darn it,
there goes Danny!"
612
00:35:14,237 --> 00:35:16,740
And I turn my car around,
try and chase him down
613
00:35:17,032 --> 00:35:19,126
Because he'd
already had it out
614
00:35:19,409 --> 00:35:22,128
With the police
in Fallbrook several times.
615
00:35:38,011 --> 00:35:40,685
One of my prominent memories
of Danny's early success
616
00:35:40,972 --> 00:35:43,566
Was when he started getting
a little bit of money.
617
00:35:43,850 --> 00:35:46,353
He could start affording
his fantasies and things.
618
00:35:46,645 --> 00:35:48,568
Quality American machine.
619
00:35:48,855 --> 00:35:50,448
All of a sudden he started
buying all this stuff,
620
00:35:50,732 --> 00:35:51,984
And he had, like,
motorcycles.
621
00:35:52,275 --> 00:35:54,903
He'd ride them all over town,
no license, nothing.
622
00:35:55,195 --> 00:35:56,572
It was just, like,
wild child.
623
00:35:56,863 --> 00:35:58,035
- Going M. T?
- Yeah.
624
00:35:58,323 --> 00:36:00,621
I'm gonna seriously pack
off the side, watch.
625
00:36:00,909 --> 00:36:02,502
No, just go
straight up and down.
626
00:36:02,786 --> 00:36:05,505
Oh, shit!
627
00:36:07,290 --> 00:36:09,418
The house out in rainbow
that they lived in,
628
00:36:09,709 --> 00:36:13,384
This was out in the middle
of nowhere up on a hill.
629
00:36:13,672 --> 00:36:16,266
Most of the time we had
the house to ourselves.
630
00:36:21,304 --> 00:36:23,181
Thought you were gonna
land on your back.
631
00:36:23,473 --> 00:36:26,602
I remember pulling up
and bullet holes in the cars
632
00:36:26,893 --> 00:36:28,270
And had the ramp there
and everything
633
00:36:28,561 --> 00:36:30,279
And just skate house.
634
00:36:30,563 --> 00:36:33,612
It was lawless.
Absolute lawlessness.
635
00:36:33,900 --> 00:36:37,245
Danny didn't grow up the same
way a lot of other people did.
636
00:36:37,529 --> 00:36:39,577
He dropped out of school
in ninth grade
637
00:36:39,864 --> 00:36:43,744
And then he went into
this skateboard touring mode.
638
00:36:45,620 --> 00:36:48,043
there he is!
639
00:36:53,044 --> 00:36:55,012
And he started hanging out
with older kids right away,
640
00:36:55,296 --> 00:36:57,469
So he really jumped
that period that's formative
641
00:36:57,757 --> 00:36:59,725
In all of our lives
of going through high school
642
00:37:00,009 --> 00:37:03,058
And finding out who we are
and developing ourselves.
643
00:37:03,346 --> 00:37:05,724
He was just chasing
his passion at that point,
644
00:37:06,015 --> 00:37:07,517
Which anybody else
would do.
645
00:37:14,107 --> 00:37:17,828
In the mid-'80s, there,
a lot of parks were going out.
646
00:37:18,111 --> 00:37:21,661
I just remember seeing
Del Mar in chunks.
647
00:37:21,948 --> 00:37:23,416
It was pretty devastating
on a lot of people.
648
00:37:23,700 --> 00:37:25,623
People were
taking to the streets
649
00:37:25,910 --> 00:37:28,254
Because they had nowhere else to
go, and if you wanted to skate,
650
00:37:28,538 --> 00:37:30,836
You just figured out how to use
the urban landscape,
651
00:37:31,124 --> 00:37:34,378
Learn how to use rails and
ledges and benches and stairs.
652
00:37:36,671 --> 00:37:37,843
The city was
the skate park.
653
00:37:38,131 --> 00:37:41,510
That didn't hurt
that bad.
654
00:37:41,801 --> 00:37:43,769
We were
skating everything.
655
00:37:44,053 --> 00:37:47,023
Calvary chapel was the hub.
Like, everybody went there.
656
00:37:47,307 --> 00:37:48,684
Everybody would
meet there,
657
00:37:48,975 --> 00:37:52,104
And then we'd all go
wherever we would go.
658
00:37:52,395 --> 00:37:53,988
Danny grew up
skating Del Mar,
659
00:37:54,272 --> 00:37:55,990
Riding transitions...
660
00:37:56,274 --> 00:37:58,368
naturally talented
little kid.
661
00:37:58,651 --> 00:38:00,119
Then this whole evolution
of skateboarding
662
00:38:00,403 --> 00:38:01,871
In the late '80s
into '90s of street skating,
663
00:38:02,155 --> 00:38:04,533
He adapted to that.
664
00:38:04,824 --> 00:38:06,417
He could do anything
he wanted,
665
00:38:06,701 --> 00:38:09,454
Whether it be
in street or vert, anything.
666
00:38:09,746 --> 00:38:11,714
And it looked right.
It looked good.
667
00:38:11,998 --> 00:38:13,341
Danny
was doing some
668
00:38:13,625 --> 00:38:15,719
Of the heaviest street
skating at the time.
669
00:38:16,002 --> 00:38:18,551
make it, D. Yeah!
670
00:38:18,838 --> 00:38:20,385
He was taking
those skills to the ramp
671
00:38:20,673 --> 00:38:23,552
And opening a whole
new doorway to tricks.
672
00:38:23,843 --> 00:38:25,971
Because he had
that background
673
00:38:26,262 --> 00:38:29,141
Of being able to ride
everything else,
674
00:38:29,432 --> 00:38:33,812
It kind of led him
down a different path.
675
00:38:34,103 --> 00:38:35,946
Yeah, Danny,
that was it!
676
00:38:36,231 --> 00:38:38,404
We'd hear, like,
rumblings of, like,
677
00:38:38,691 --> 00:38:40,443
"Oh, there's gonna be
this new super company
678
00:38:40,735 --> 00:38:42,157
"And it's gonna
be called plan B,
679
00:38:42,445 --> 00:38:44,573
"And there's gonna be
all these crazy people
680
00:38:44,864 --> 00:38:46,912
That are gonna skate
for it".
681
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,669
Danny Way,
Matt Hensley, Mike Carroll,
682
00:38:49,953 --> 00:38:52,547
Sean Sheffey,
and Rick Howard. That's it.
683
00:38:52,831 --> 00:38:54,583
- Cut and dry?
- Cut and dry, that's it.
684
00:38:54,874 --> 00:38:57,548
It felt the same way
to me that I'm sure it felt
685
00:38:57,836 --> 00:39:00,089
To the general public
when the USA finally decided
686
00:39:00,380 --> 00:39:02,428
To put together
a dream team for basketball.
687
00:39:02,715 --> 00:39:05,514
It floored everyone.
688
00:39:05,802 --> 00:39:07,804
Plan B set the bar so high
689
00:39:08,096 --> 00:39:10,224
As far as a group of guys
all in one place.
690
00:39:10,515 --> 00:39:13,735
It set the standard.
691
00:39:14,018 --> 00:39:15,736
And these guys were
creating something
692
00:39:16,020 --> 00:39:17,363
That wasn't there before,
693
00:39:17,647 --> 00:39:19,365
Tricks that weren't
there before.
694
00:39:19,649 --> 00:39:21,526
It was this
totally new thing.
695
00:39:21,818 --> 00:39:24,913
And Mike Ternasky saw
what they could do,
696
00:39:25,196 --> 00:39:28,245
And he brought
the most out of them.
697
00:39:40,086 --> 00:39:41,258
When I had to film
something tough,
698
00:39:41,546 --> 00:39:42,763
You'd want
Mike t. There.
699
00:39:43,047 --> 00:39:44,390
You'd want
that reinforcement
700
00:39:44,674 --> 00:39:46,597
While you were trying
whatever you were trying.
701
00:39:46,885 --> 00:39:48,933
'Cause in those days,
you know, some of that stuff
702
00:39:49,220 --> 00:39:51,097
You just didn't really know
if it was even possible.
703
00:39:51,389 --> 00:39:53,483
- Yeah!
- Yeah, Matt!
704
00:39:53,766 --> 00:39:56,565
He gave you something that
just blew up inside of you.
705
00:39:56,853 --> 00:40:01,484
That just like, oh my gosh,
I can't sit still now.
706
00:40:01,774 --> 00:40:03,572
I have to work for this.
707
00:40:04,736 --> 00:40:09,412
Yes! Hey, Rodney.
Push.
708
00:40:09,699 --> 00:40:12,122
That accountability,
like, we need that.
709
00:40:14,829 --> 00:40:18,834
Mike saw different things
in me that I didn't see.
710
00:40:19,125 --> 00:40:22,800
He was a big part of making me
a believer in myself.
711
00:40:23,087 --> 00:40:25,806
You got it, dude.
Just go right now.
712
00:40:26,090 --> 00:40:28,468
You're not too tired.
Do it again.
713
00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:30,182
Talent only takes
you so far.
714
00:40:30,470 --> 00:40:31,722
It's putting
your head down
715
00:40:32,013 --> 00:40:33,481
And going that does
the rest of it.
716
00:40:33,765 --> 00:40:36,018
Danny worked really hard.
717
00:40:36,309 --> 00:40:40,940
It wasn't like it was
just easy for him.
718
00:40:41,230 --> 00:40:42,527
We'd all slam
and get back up,
719
00:40:42,815 --> 00:40:44,283
But most of us
would stop.
720
00:40:44,567 --> 00:40:47,946
He never did.
He just kept pushing.
721
00:40:48,237 --> 00:40:51,207
That was
real good.
722
00:40:51,491 --> 00:40:52,743
If he says he's
gonna pull this off,
723
00:40:53,034 --> 00:40:54,377
There's not a doubt
he's gonna do this.
724
00:40:58,706 --> 00:40:59,832
If he didn't,
he would do it
725
00:41:00,124 --> 00:41:01,626
Until he either broke
his leg or something.
726
00:41:01,918 --> 00:41:02,885
You know,
he would not stop.
727
00:41:03,169 --> 00:41:04,671
Like terminator.
728
00:41:09,676 --> 00:41:11,804
He had a new peer group
that he needed respect from
729
00:41:12,095 --> 00:41:13,722
And that he needed
to be accepted by,
730
00:41:14,013 --> 00:41:16,732
So he was pushing the limits
of what he was capable of
731
00:41:17,016 --> 00:41:20,486
And in doing so, you know,
shifting the paradigm.
732
00:41:20,770 --> 00:41:22,989
- Whoa!
- Aah!
733
00:41:23,272 --> 00:41:26,367
That's
good enough, dude.
734
00:41:26,651 --> 00:41:29,200
Danny Way could have
done anything.
735
00:41:29,487 --> 00:41:30,488
Anything.
736
00:41:30,780 --> 00:41:35,081
Danny Way,
skater of the year,
737
00:41:35,368 --> 00:41:37,996
selected by the readers
of Thrasher magazine.
738
00:41:42,458 --> 00:41:45,337
During that era, he was
also a pro snowboarder,
739
00:41:45,628 --> 00:41:49,758
A gnarly motocross dude,
and a super good surfer.
740
00:41:50,049 --> 00:41:51,551
the higher your goal,
741
00:41:51,843 --> 00:41:53,971
The more focused
and intense you get.
742
00:41:55,888 --> 00:41:57,936
I don't know Danny's
whole process,
743
00:41:58,224 --> 00:42:00,773
but I can imagine
he has to get himself
744
00:42:01,060 --> 00:42:02,858
into a place
that's pretty intense.
745
00:42:03,146 --> 00:42:05,114
And it's got
to make interaction
746
00:42:05,398 --> 00:42:07,742
with other people
pretty hard.
747
00:42:10,111 --> 00:42:12,534
And, uh, it's probably
not all healthy.
748
00:42:23,833 --> 00:42:27,258
Danny was a teenager
with no parental supervision
749
00:42:27,545 --> 00:42:29,297
With a peer group around him
750
00:42:29,589 --> 00:42:33,890
That could perpetuate
his adolescence.
751
00:42:34,177 --> 00:42:36,646
Got two
of these babies.
752
00:42:36,929 --> 00:42:39,102
Mike wasn't
with Danny 24-7.
753
00:42:39,390 --> 00:42:42,610
He knew there was
a lot of partying going on,
754
00:42:42,894 --> 00:42:44,817
And had no problem
calling anyone out
755
00:42:45,104 --> 00:42:46,321
For anything
at anytime,
756
00:42:46,606 --> 00:42:48,654
So we just got better
at hiding it.
757
00:42:48,941 --> 00:42:50,443
You know,
it's like any kid.
758
00:42:50,735 --> 00:42:53,784
The mom's like,
"my son's an angel".
759
00:42:54,072 --> 00:42:57,451
Meanwhile the kid goes out the
back door just ripping shit up.
760
00:42:57,742 --> 00:43:00,245
We're seriously gonna
jack someone up.
761
00:43:00,536 --> 00:43:02,834
That peer group really, I think,
pushed him in directions
762
00:43:03,122 --> 00:43:05,591
That wasn't the best
or the healthiest for him.
763
00:43:05,875 --> 00:43:08,344
Someone right now
is, like, walking
764
00:43:08,628 --> 00:43:10,756
And they have no idea
what's gonna happen!
765
00:43:12,465 --> 00:43:15,184
Like, they're
peacefully walking.
766
00:43:15,468 --> 00:43:16,970
There was no parents
to stop anything,
767
00:43:17,261 --> 00:43:20,105
So whatever stupid idea
that we came up with,
768
00:43:20,389 --> 00:43:21,936
That's what we did.
769
00:43:22,225 --> 00:43:25,024
Oh, my god,
you missed!
770
00:43:25,311 --> 00:43:26,688
Smashing something
and running away
771
00:43:26,979 --> 00:43:28,276
And getting
away from the police
772
00:43:28,564 --> 00:43:29,907
Is a great
bonding experience.
773
00:43:30,191 --> 00:43:31,693
That's a great way
to build a friendship.
774
00:43:33,444 --> 00:43:35,697
I didn't do shit!
775
00:43:35,988 --> 00:43:37,956
- No?
- No, bitch!
776
00:43:47,542 --> 00:43:49,840
The type of men
that are risk-takers,
777
00:43:50,128 --> 00:43:51,630
They have
a certain recklessness.
778
00:43:51,921 --> 00:43:53,889
I think that's a necessity
in what we do.
779
00:43:54,173 --> 00:43:57,052
Ha ha!
780
00:43:57,343 --> 00:43:58,686
Whoa!
781
00:43:58,970 --> 00:44:01,393
If you can make it
through that reckless time
782
00:44:01,681 --> 00:44:03,649
And maybe find
your direction
783
00:44:03,933 --> 00:44:06,732
And kind of straighten
the car out, you survive it...
784
00:44:09,730 --> 00:44:11,824
but in the beginning,
you have a lot of ammunition
785
00:44:12,108 --> 00:44:13,405
And you're shooting
at every direction,
786
00:44:13,693 --> 00:44:16,242
Waiting to see
if it hits something.
787
00:44:26,831 --> 00:44:30,677
I was downtown skating
and I looked across the street
788
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,679
And both my parents were, like,
standing looking at me.
789
00:44:33,963 --> 00:44:35,260
I knew it, immediately,
790
00:44:35,548 --> 00:44:36,970
When I looked up
and saw them the way
791
00:44:37,258 --> 00:44:39,260
They were just looking
across the street at me.
792
00:44:39,552 --> 00:44:42,931
I was like, "oh, god,
what happened?"
793
00:44:45,349 --> 00:44:49,354
Mike was really happy with the
way things were going, you know?
794
00:44:49,645 --> 00:44:51,113
A lot of things
were lining up,
795
00:44:51,397 --> 00:44:53,274
And his guys were
doing good in contests.
796
00:44:53,566 --> 00:44:57,321
Colin and Danny were
in the plane with him.
797
00:44:57,612 --> 00:45:00,957
He told them that he had done
so much of what he wanted to do.
798
00:45:01,240 --> 00:45:04,369
You know, if he died
right now, he'd be happy.
799
00:45:07,663 --> 00:45:09,586
Well, I heard he
was going into work.
800
00:45:09,874 --> 00:45:12,969
I think Dave Andrews actually
witnessed this accident,
801
00:45:13,252 --> 00:45:14,378
Or he was actually
driving to work
802
00:45:14,670 --> 00:45:16,047
And he saw that
there was an accident,
803
00:45:16,339 --> 00:45:19,058
And had no idea that Mike was
actually in that accident.
804
00:45:20,718 --> 00:45:23,392
Yeah, I mean, just,
805
00:45:23,679 --> 00:45:25,397
I mean, devastating,
806
00:45:25,681 --> 00:45:28,104
And, you know,
yeah, it was just devastating.
807
00:45:35,441 --> 00:45:38,160
He was pulling out
off a stoplight,
808
00:45:38,444 --> 00:45:42,574
And an older lady
ran the red light.
809
00:45:42,865 --> 00:45:45,869
T- Boned him.
810
00:45:47,703 --> 00:45:50,331
When Mike passed away,
I was just like,
811
00:45:50,623 --> 00:45:53,001
"Shit, man.
This sucks for Danny.
812
00:45:53,292 --> 00:45:55,169
What is he gonna do now?"
813
00:45:55,461 --> 00:45:59,432
It was just absolutely
tragic for him to lose Mike
814
00:45:59,715 --> 00:46:04,095
Because I think it was at such
a pivotal point in his life.
815
00:46:04,387 --> 00:46:07,266
Short of our stepdad Tim,
he was the only other person
816
00:46:07,556 --> 00:46:09,809
In Danny's life
that really grounded him.
817
00:46:12,103 --> 00:46:14,777
He didn't have
that sounding board
818
00:46:15,064 --> 00:46:18,785
That could really tell him
morally or ethically,
819
00:46:19,068 --> 00:46:20,820
Whatever, that what you're
doing is wrong or right.
820
00:46:21,112 --> 00:46:22,489
I was a friend,
and there's no way
821
00:46:22,780 --> 00:46:25,124
I could be that sort
of mentor to him.
822
00:46:25,408 --> 00:46:30,380
I had no idea that
that was on the horizon.
823
00:46:30,663 --> 00:46:32,961
I always felt, like,
this sense of security
824
00:46:33,249 --> 00:46:34,796
With Mike
in the picture.
825
00:46:35,084 --> 00:46:37,132
"If all else fails,
I can call Mike,"
826
00:46:37,420 --> 00:46:41,516
And I was
completely lost.
827
00:47:11,203 --> 00:47:15,049
We're hearing that there's
problems in the building,
828
00:47:15,333 --> 00:47:19,588
But we're listening
for the key things:
829
00:47:19,879 --> 00:47:23,224
It's finished
and it's safe.
830
00:47:23,507 --> 00:47:25,635
At that level
of danger,
831
00:47:25,926 --> 00:47:29,271
There's no room
for any error in the design.
832
00:47:29,555 --> 00:47:30,932
- Thirty-two inches.
- Okay.
833
00:47:31,223 --> 00:47:32,440
If it's off a half inch,
834
00:47:32,725 --> 00:47:34,398
That's all the difference
in the world.
835
00:47:47,073 --> 00:47:48,996
Hitting the quarterpipe
at 50 miles an hour
836
00:47:49,283 --> 00:47:51,206
Going into a ramp
three stories tall
837
00:47:51,494 --> 00:47:53,087
And flying three stories
out of it,
838
00:47:53,371 --> 00:47:56,250
That thing better
be perfection.
839
00:47:57,958 --> 00:47:59,960
Skateboarders
are grown men
840
00:48:00,252 --> 00:48:02,721
in T-shirts and shorts
and puffy shoes.
841
00:48:03,005 --> 00:48:04,882
The Chinese guys don't like
being told
842
00:48:05,174 --> 00:48:07,893
What to do by grown men
in kids' shorts.
843
00:48:08,177 --> 00:48:09,895
We know how
to fix this.
844
00:48:10,179 --> 00:48:14,605
It'll work if they will do
what we ask them to do.
845
00:48:14,892 --> 00:48:17,896
I know, but...
846
00:48:18,187 --> 00:48:21,157
he think you change
your mind many times...
847
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:22,908
we haven't changed shit!
848
00:48:23,192 --> 00:48:25,661
Come over here and tell them
exactly what I said.
849
00:48:25,945 --> 00:48:28,619
This is the plan,
the blueprint.
850
00:48:34,245 --> 00:48:36,464
It's so hard to communicate
with the Chinese,
851
00:48:36,747 --> 00:48:38,795
And the whole process
takes four or five times
852
00:48:39,083 --> 00:48:40,585
As long
as it normally would.
853
00:48:40,876 --> 00:48:43,379
And then the pride gets in the
way, and that's even harder.
854
00:48:43,671 --> 00:48:45,048
Do you know
distance?
855
00:48:45,339 --> 00:48:47,512
How much do you want
to move the scaffolding?
856
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:48,767
- Thirty.
- Thirty.
857
00:48:53,848 --> 00:48:58,194
Eighty.
Eighty inches back.
858
00:49:03,607 --> 00:49:07,407
A cultural barrier,
that's a big one.
859
00:49:07,695 --> 00:49:10,949
If JT and Brian
can't do what they do,
860
00:49:11,240 --> 00:49:14,710
Danny can't do
what he does.
861
00:49:16,328 --> 00:49:17,705
It's definitely...
862
00:49:17,997 --> 00:49:21,171
one of the most
challenging situations.
863
00:49:23,002 --> 00:49:24,629
I've just never
failed before,
864
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:26,797
And I don't want
to fail now.
865
00:50:02,124 --> 00:50:05,719
Danny got
injured surfing.
866
00:50:06,003 --> 00:50:08,256
He got taken down
by a wave
867
00:50:08,547 --> 00:50:12,017
And driven into the bottom
of the ocean headfirst.
868
00:50:12,301 --> 00:50:15,430
It literally could
have killed him.
869
00:50:15,721 --> 00:50:18,224
I remember him
coming home in a lot of pain
870
00:50:18,516 --> 00:50:19,859
And describing the story,
871
00:50:20,142 --> 00:50:22,395
And I was like,
"yeah, whatever. Surfing".
872
00:50:22,686 --> 00:50:27,032
And then he's like, "no, no, no.
It's really bad".
873
00:50:27,316 --> 00:50:30,035
He was
very afraid then.
874
00:50:30,319 --> 00:50:33,573
He didn't know if he was
ever gonna skateboard again.
875
00:50:40,871 --> 00:50:42,669
He was
in a lot of pain,
876
00:50:42,957 --> 00:50:45,301
And he went to try
to relieve some of the pain,
877
00:50:45,584 --> 00:50:47,586
And a chiropractor
complicated things
878
00:50:47,878 --> 00:50:50,051
And made things worse
instead of better.
879
00:50:50,339 --> 00:50:51,636
There was some concerns
880
00:50:51,924 --> 00:50:54,643
That he wasn't gonna
be 100% ever again.
881
00:50:57,096 --> 00:50:59,098
I didn't have
any experience
882
00:50:59,390 --> 00:51:01,813
With medical trainers.
883
00:51:02,101 --> 00:51:05,230
Skateboarding was never
sophisticated in that way,
884
00:51:05,521 --> 00:51:08,491
So when I finally got hurt
at the level where I needed,
885
00:51:08,774 --> 00:51:11,402
Like, real serious attention
from legitimate doctors,
886
00:51:11,694 --> 00:51:14,243
It wasn't available.
887
00:51:14,530 --> 00:51:17,625
I remember
visiting him,
888
00:51:17,908 --> 00:51:20,081
And I had to lift him
out of the bathtub.
889
00:51:20,369 --> 00:51:22,246
I was only there
for a week.
890
00:51:22,538 --> 00:51:24,666
He dealt with so much
of this on his own,
891
00:51:24,957 --> 00:51:28,757
Like, literally at home
with a broken neck.
892
00:51:29,044 --> 00:51:31,217
I'd watched him
for six months
893
00:51:31,505 --> 00:51:33,132
Going from doctor
to doctor.
894
00:51:33,424 --> 00:51:34,676
He was all over the map
895
00:51:34,967 --> 00:51:38,517
Just trying to find
some sort of solution.
896
00:51:38,804 --> 00:51:40,147
When Danny came to me,
897
00:51:40,431 --> 00:51:42,354
He'd already had
the injury for six months.
898
00:51:42,641 --> 00:51:46,145
Danny's neck
was like stone.
899
00:51:46,437 --> 00:51:49,941
Any movement of his neck could
literally tear his spinal cord.
900
00:51:50,232 --> 00:51:53,361
So, you know, I knew
I had my hands full,
901
00:51:53,652 --> 00:51:58,123
And I knew that this was
a coin toss at very best.
902
00:52:00,409 --> 00:52:02,002
That moment
in time was one
903
00:52:02,286 --> 00:52:04,880
Of the darkest moments
I've had in my whole life.
904
00:52:05,164 --> 00:52:09,465
My motivation was out the door,
like, I just wanted to give up.
905
00:52:09,752 --> 00:52:12,926
I said, "Danny, I'm gonna need
you to bring a skateboard here,
906
00:52:13,213 --> 00:52:14,886
And I just need
to see you ride it".
907
00:52:15,174 --> 00:52:17,893
He said, "Paul, I can't
ride a skateboard".
908
00:52:18,177 --> 00:52:19,554
I said, "Danny,
look, I don't want
909
00:52:19,845 --> 00:52:22,564
To delude you into thinking
you can be fixed up
910
00:52:22,848 --> 00:52:25,271
Because this is
a career-ending injury".
911
00:52:27,227 --> 00:52:29,855
When he's not skating
or he's not skating well,
912
00:52:30,147 --> 00:52:32,900
He himself doesn't have the same
confidence when he walks around.
913
00:52:33,192 --> 00:52:35,911
At that time,
he was emotionally...
914
00:52:36,195 --> 00:52:40,871
and confidence was a lot lower
than I'd seen him before that.
915
00:52:41,158 --> 00:52:42,876
Danny was
literally sweating
916
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:45,379
When he took
the skateboard out.
917
00:52:45,663 --> 00:52:48,712
You could see he was
paralyzed with fear.
918
00:52:50,959 --> 00:52:52,461
Whenever you have
a traumatic injury
919
00:52:52,753 --> 00:52:54,346
Or life-threatening
situation,
920
00:52:54,630 --> 00:52:57,509
It's time
for reflection.
921
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:02,351
Can you handle now
not being invincible?
922
00:53:02,638 --> 00:53:06,268
Athletes
are used to winning
923
00:53:06,558 --> 00:53:09,687
Because they're exercising
their strengths.
924
00:53:09,978 --> 00:53:11,946
So all of a sudden
925
00:53:12,231 --> 00:53:14,450
When they are left
without their strength,
926
00:53:14,733 --> 00:53:17,987
They have to explore
their weakness.
927
00:53:18,278 --> 00:53:21,282
When you get hurt,
you kind of analyze yourself
928
00:53:21,573 --> 00:53:23,246
And question
why you're doing it,
929
00:53:23,534 --> 00:53:26,037
What you're doing it for,
will you be able to do it again,
930
00:53:26,328 --> 00:53:28,046
And all those things
that dictate
931
00:53:28,330 --> 00:53:31,209
Whether you're just good
or you're great.
932
00:53:31,500 --> 00:53:35,221
We have Danny Way
riding for plan B.
933
00:53:45,931 --> 00:53:47,979
He was told
he would never be able
934
00:53:48,267 --> 00:53:50,235
To compete
as a skateboarder again.
935
00:53:50,519 --> 00:53:53,693
Four months from the day
he walked into my office,
936
00:53:53,981 --> 00:53:56,985
He won his first contest
back on a skateboard.
937
00:53:57,276 --> 00:53:59,779
All right, Danny!
938
00:54:00,070 --> 00:54:04,621
Let's hear it
for Danny Way!
939
00:54:04,908 --> 00:54:08,082
It was really
quite a moment of joy
940
00:54:08,370 --> 00:54:10,247
And celebration
for both of us,
941
00:54:10,539 --> 00:54:14,589
Because I saw
the warrior in there.
942
00:54:14,877 --> 00:54:17,050
I saw everything
a great coach
943
00:54:17,337 --> 00:54:20,511
Or therapist hopes that
they can see in people
944
00:54:20,799 --> 00:54:23,177
Because it's really
the stuff of genius.
945
00:54:31,685 --> 00:54:33,278
Danny was in and out.
946
00:54:33,562 --> 00:54:35,610
You didn't see him all
the time,
947
00:54:35,898 --> 00:54:38,276
But when you did, you're like,
"whoa, it's Danny Way".
948
00:54:38,567 --> 00:54:40,365
There was a lot
going on with him
949
00:54:40,652 --> 00:54:43,826
At that point,
and a lot more drive.
950
00:54:44,114 --> 00:54:46,412
The injury kind of
taught him
951
00:54:46,700 --> 00:54:49,123
"I might not have another
chance to do this".
952
00:54:54,374 --> 00:54:56,297
He's always
gonna rise up.
953
00:54:56,585 --> 00:54:59,714
Man's broken his neck and was
out, never gonna skate again.
954
00:55:00,005 --> 00:55:02,383
Well, that was just another
challenge for him.
955
00:55:02,674 --> 00:55:05,302
Physically, mentally...
956
00:55:05,594 --> 00:55:07,141
you just can't
break this dude.
957
00:55:07,429 --> 00:55:09,898
I saw Danny, I hadn't
seen him forever,
958
00:55:10,182 --> 00:55:13,732
And he was going so hard,
just attacking it.
959
00:55:14,019 --> 00:55:16,397
The vert ramp
couldn't contain Danny.
960
00:55:30,118 --> 00:55:32,086
The ramp was
too small for this dude.
961
00:55:32,371 --> 00:55:35,045
If you built something bigger,
it could show his real ability.
962
00:55:35,332 --> 00:55:38,051
Mike and I had
always talked about building
963
00:55:38,335 --> 00:55:41,589
These monster oversized ramps
that'd break the world record.
964
00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:43,678
But the ramp size
that I need to build
965
00:55:43,966 --> 00:55:45,468
Is gonna cost
too much money
966
00:55:45,759 --> 00:55:47,602
And when would
that ever happen.
967
00:55:47,886 --> 00:55:50,514
But Mike was always
like, "it'll happen.
968
00:55:50,806 --> 00:55:52,353
One day we'll get it
figured out".
969
00:55:52,641 --> 00:55:56,737
Once dc started,
it was all about the finances
970
00:55:57,020 --> 00:55:58,897
To do something
like this,
971
00:55:59,189 --> 00:56:02,033
And ken and me realized
if you built something bigger,
972
00:56:02,317 --> 00:56:04,866
It could showcase
Danny's ability way more.
973
00:56:05,153 --> 00:56:07,497
For me,
Mike Ternasky
974
00:56:07,781 --> 00:56:09,499
Is probably
the biggest inspiration.
975
00:56:09,783 --> 00:56:11,410
He was very good
at putting people
976
00:56:11,702 --> 00:56:13,704
In situations
for them to succeed,
977
00:56:13,996 --> 00:56:17,751
So I wanted to facilitate
ways for Danny
978
00:56:18,041 --> 00:56:19,964
To explore his talents
979
00:56:20,252 --> 00:56:22,254
And to expand
upon it.
980
00:56:25,340 --> 00:56:29,846
Making Danny's vision
come to life wasn't easy.
981
00:56:31,722 --> 00:56:33,474
Driving up
to this airfield,
982
00:56:33,765 --> 00:56:36,268
I see, like,
what looks like a quarterpipe.
983
00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,689
I'm looking,
and I was like, "holy shit!
984
00:56:39,980 --> 00:56:42,324
What is going to go down
on this right now?"

00:57:37,746 --> 00:57:39,464
I remember
talking to him,
994
00:57:39,748 --> 00:57:42,467
And he's like, "we're gonna
pull the helicopter in,
995
00:57:42,751 --> 00:57:44,674
And I'm gonna jump
out of the helicopter".
996
00:57:44,962 --> 00:57:47,590
I was like, "you're gonna jump out
of the helicopter into the ramp?"
997
00:57:47,881 --> 00:57:49,883
I'm like, "are you kidding?
Is he kidding?"
998
00:57:50,175 --> 00:57:51,722
"Is he joking?"
"He's not joking".
999
00:57:52,010 --> 00:57:53,557
Like, they would
let you do that?
1000
00:57:53,845 --> 00:57:55,722
They're gonna let you
get in the helicopter...
1001
00:57:56,014 --> 00:57:58,563
like, they can keep it up...
they're gonna let you do that?
1002
00:57:58,850 --> 00:58:00,852
He's like, "yeah, we're
gonna do it right now".
1003
00:58:01,144 --> 00:58:03,067
"Okay," and then I thought,
"are they messing with me?"
1004
00:58:07,109 --> 00:58:09,453
I end up getting in
with Danny.
1005
00:58:11,071 --> 00:58:13,540
It was pretty crazy
seeing him, like, filming him,
1006
00:58:13,824 --> 00:58:15,997
I'm like, "holy shit,
this dude's jumping
1007
00:58:16,284 --> 00:58:18,537
Out of a helicopter
into a ramp right now".
1008
00:58:20,622 --> 00:58:22,499
It went
from this incredible day
1009
00:58:22,791 --> 00:58:25,715
To "I'm about to watch
this insane disaster".
1010
00:58:26,003 --> 00:58:29,507
If it goes too early, you're
jumping 15 feet to coping.
1011
00:58:29,798 --> 00:58:31,300
If you jump just
a little bit off,
1012
00:58:31,591 --> 00:58:33,685
You're jumping 30 feet
to the flat ground.
1013
00:58:33,969 --> 00:58:35,516
I was, like,
so sketched out...
1014
00:58:35,804 --> 00:58:37,602
like, I was so off
in the corner
1015
00:58:37,889 --> 00:58:42,269
Just, like, on each one,
just like, "ooh!"
1016
00:58:42,561 --> 00:58:43,938
Him jumping out
of the helicopter
1017
00:58:44,229 --> 00:58:45,731
I thought was
the coolest thing ever.
1018
00:58:46,023 --> 00:58:47,866
I was just like,
"oh, my god!"
1019
00:58:48,150 --> 00:58:49,572
It was
absolutely mind-blowing.
1020
00:58:49,860 --> 00:58:52,784
When he landed
into that thing,
1021
00:58:53,071 --> 00:58:54,698
It felt so
absolutely incredible.
1022
00:58:58,452 --> 00:59:00,625
Everybody was gonna
have to step up
1023
00:59:00,912 --> 00:59:03,711
After seeing that
in the magazine.
1024
00:59:03,999 --> 00:59:05,751
that's Danny.
1025
00:59:06,043 --> 00:59:07,169
He dreamed something up
1026
00:59:07,461 --> 00:59:09,555
That nobody else
on this planet would have,
1027
00:59:09,838 --> 00:59:13,308
And just figured out
how to make it reality.
1028
00:59:21,850 --> 00:59:23,602
Tim was amazed
that Danny
1029
00:59:23,894 --> 00:59:26,022
Had even visioned
that ramp,
1030
00:59:26,313 --> 00:59:28,566
And that
it could be skated.
1031
00:59:28,857 --> 00:59:30,450
He was pretty proud.
1032
00:59:32,194 --> 00:59:33,571
Shortly after that,
1033
00:59:33,862 --> 00:59:36,160
Danny got married
and had a son, Ryden.
1034
00:59:36,448 --> 00:59:40,453
Danny was a father
similar to Tim.
1035
00:59:40,744 --> 00:59:42,838
It was like deja vu
all over again.
1036
00:59:43,121 --> 00:59:46,967
What Tim planted
in Danny
1037
00:59:47,250 --> 00:59:52,472
Was the opportunity
to experience his capabilities.
1038
00:59:52,756 --> 00:59:55,430
That stayed with Danny.
1039
00:59:55,717 --> 00:59:58,186
He knew he could overcome
pretty much anything
1040
00:59:58,470 --> 01:00:00,689
That was put
in front of him.
1041
01:00:00,972 --> 01:00:02,599
Everybody
grows up different.
1042
01:00:02,891 --> 01:00:04,609
I think Danny
had a hard time,
1043
01:00:04,893 --> 01:00:07,863
And skateboarding
was his... his thing.
1044
01:00:08,146 --> 01:00:09,614
It was like going
to a doctor,
1045
01:00:09,898 --> 01:00:12,321
And the doctor says, "here are some pills.
Take them".
1046
01:00:12,609 --> 01:00:14,703
Not with Danny.
"Look, you have some problems.
1047
01:00:14,986 --> 01:00:17,330
Here's a skateboard.
That's gonna make you okay".
1048
01:00:18,990 --> 01:00:22,335
Skateboarding brings
it all right to now.
1049
01:00:22,619 --> 01:00:24,246
There's a lot of times
I'm up there
1050
01:00:24,538 --> 01:00:25,790
And my head's
going crazy,
1051
01:00:26,081 --> 01:00:28,504
And every time I drop in,
it just dissolves all that.
1052
01:00:30,752 --> 01:00:34,177
Tim was out surfing
with some friends of his.
1053
01:00:37,217 --> 01:00:39,015
He was coming
back in on his board,
1054
01:00:39,302 --> 01:00:41,646
And he collapsed
in the beach.
1055
01:00:41,930 --> 01:00:45,025
He passed away
doing what he loves to do.
1056
01:00:46,393 --> 01:00:48,395
Danny felt a real loss,
1057
01:00:48,687 --> 01:00:53,067
And I think it brought back
feelings that Danny had
1058
01:00:53,358 --> 01:00:56,237
From other losses
in his life.
1059
01:00:56,528 --> 01:01:00,249
There's been a lot
of, like, trauma in my life,
1060
01:01:00,532 --> 01:01:05,754
And the only thing that's steered
me back on track is my board.
1061
01:01:06,037 --> 01:01:08,881
Some of us
use our pain
1062
01:01:09,166 --> 01:01:12,545
And our anger as a motive
to achieve things,
1063
01:01:12,836 --> 01:01:15,760
And that motive
is very, very powerful,
1064
01:01:16,047 --> 01:01:18,470
But it also is
a double-edged sword.
1065
01:01:26,391 --> 01:01:29,565
Skateboarders look
at the world differently,
1066
01:01:29,853 --> 01:01:32,106
But Danny's unique
because his gaze
1067
01:01:32,397 --> 01:01:35,116
Is a lot wider
than most skateboarders'.
1068
01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:39,530
Leave it to Danny
to not be satisfied,
1069
01:01:39,821 --> 01:01:41,539
So I need something bigger,
1070
01:01:41,823 --> 01:01:42,995
I need something faster.
1071
01:01:43,283 --> 01:01:44,910
I need something crazier
1072
01:01:45,202 --> 01:01:48,456
Because my head
is in a different place.
1073
01:01:48,747 --> 01:01:50,875
Whatever else is going on
in skateboarding,
1074
01:01:51,166 --> 01:01:52,418
That doesn't matter,
1075
01:01:52,709 --> 01:01:55,303
Because this is what I need
to do with skateboarding.
1076
01:01:55,587 --> 01:01:58,591
I never imagined
anybody going that big.
1077
01:01:58,882 --> 01:02:01,761
That was the first time
1078
01:02:02,052 --> 01:02:04,805
Anybody had even seen
anything like that.
1079
01:02:05,096 --> 01:02:07,940
That was a shock, I think, to
the entire skateboarding world.
1080
01:02:08,225 --> 01:02:10,728
He could very well
have built something
1081
01:02:11,895 --> 01:02:14,899
Much, much smaller.
1082
01:02:15,190 --> 01:02:17,613
No one else would've
done it that way.
1083
01:02:17,901 --> 01:02:19,494
No one would've
convinced people
1084
01:02:19,778 --> 01:02:21,826
To put that much money
into building that,
1085
01:02:22,113 --> 01:02:24,457
And then somehow thought they
were gonna be able to do it.
1086
01:02:30,372 --> 01:02:32,340
Danny used
his entire skill set
1087
01:02:32,624 --> 01:02:35,503
To do the whole
megaramp movement.
1088
01:02:35,794 --> 01:02:40,516
His fearlessness,
his vertical skill set,
1089
01:02:40,799 --> 01:02:45,020
His street knowledge...
it's amazing.
1090
01:02:45,303 --> 01:02:47,180
It's a lifetime
of effort to do that.
1091
01:02:54,562 --> 01:02:57,611
He's the pioneer
of the gnarliest thing
1092
01:02:57,899 --> 01:03:00,322
There is to do
on a skateboard.
1093
01:03:00,610 --> 01:03:04,035
It goes beyond
skateboarding.
1094
01:03:04,322 --> 01:03:08,372
This is now
life and death stuntmanship,
1095
01:03:08,660 --> 01:03:11,960
True daredevil stuff.
1096
01:03:14,916 --> 01:03:17,169
You can die.
1097
01:03:19,045 --> 01:03:20,888
If you look
at the ramp, I mean,
1098
01:03:21,172 --> 01:03:23,174
That's the result of Danny
being fed up
1099
01:03:23,466 --> 01:03:25,560
Of having
to compete on vert
1100
01:03:25,844 --> 01:03:28,393
And saying, "you know what?
I'm better than this.
1101
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:31,229
I'm gonna create something new
that's gonna jump everyone".
1102
01:03:31,516 --> 01:03:32,893
So, he created
his own event
1103
01:03:33,184 --> 01:03:35,027
On his battlefield,
you know,
1104
01:03:35,312 --> 01:03:37,189
Like that he was
gonna excel at.
1105
01:03:39,482 --> 01:03:42,076
I really admired
1106
01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:45,330
And looked up to guys
like Danny Way,
1107
01:03:45,613 --> 01:03:47,661
Guys that had
this completely other idea
1108
01:03:47,949 --> 01:03:50,077
That was, to most people,
crazy or insane,
1109
01:03:50,368 --> 01:03:52,587
But it was something
that worked in their head,
1110
01:03:52,871 --> 01:03:56,842
And they were able to start this whole
movement in this other direction.
1111
01:03:57,125 --> 01:03:59,594
They were able to start
their own sports.
1112
01:03:59,878 --> 01:04:02,131
The ♪- Games contest
is the gnarliest thing
1113
01:04:02,422 --> 01:04:04,265
I've ever seen
live skateboarding.
1114
01:04:04,549 --> 01:04:08,520
I felt like I was watching
gladiator or something.
1115
01:04:40,502 --> 01:04:43,130
Skateboarding
is just such a notch up
1116
01:04:43,421 --> 01:04:44,889
From a lot of sports
1117
01:04:45,173 --> 01:04:48,894
As far as how tough you have
to be to get that good.
1118
01:04:49,177 --> 01:04:52,306
I think that,
in a lot of ways,
1119
01:04:52,597 --> 01:04:56,147
It gives you strength
for the rest of your life.
1120
01:05:01,189 --> 01:05:02,907
In order
to achieve greatness,
1121
01:05:03,191 --> 01:05:04,989
You have to go through
a lot of pain.
1122
01:05:05,276 --> 01:05:08,951
You definitely
have setbacks,
1123
01:05:09,239 --> 01:05:11,992
But in order to achieve
that success,
1124
01:05:12,283 --> 01:05:13,910
You have to push through.
1125
01:05:14,202 --> 01:05:17,877
You're gonna have
to battle injury.
1126
01:05:51,197 --> 01:05:54,701
oh, my gosh, Danny Way!
1127
01:05:54,993 --> 01:05:58,338
One to the world!
You kill me!
1128
01:06:04,836 --> 01:06:06,759
Yeah!
1129
01:06:07,046 --> 01:06:11,267
Why keep going? Is staying undefeated
really that important to you?
1130
01:06:11,551 --> 01:06:14,976
Naw, it's more... more my
passion for skateboarding
1131
01:06:15,263 --> 01:06:16,515
And part
of the challenge
1132
01:06:16,806 --> 01:06:18,524
Sometimes is
battling the injuries
1133
01:06:18,808 --> 01:06:20,810
And, uh, you know,
it's always gratifying
1134
01:06:21,102 --> 01:06:23,480
To push the human,
you know, uh,
1135
01:06:23,771 --> 01:06:26,024
The human potential
as far as how much abuse
1136
01:06:26,316 --> 01:06:28,444
You can take
and come back from.
1137
01:06:28,735 --> 01:06:30,863
Danny! Whoo!
1138
01:06:37,535 --> 01:06:39,503
The very best guys
are the ones
1139
01:06:39,787 --> 01:06:42,006
That are willing
to push it past the limit
1140
01:06:42,290 --> 01:06:44,213
And take
those chances
1141
01:06:44,542 --> 01:06:47,386
To get
to that next level.
1142
01:06:47,670 --> 01:06:50,719
You have to believe
that you can do something
1143
01:06:51,007 --> 01:06:53,101
That nobody else
has done,
1144
01:06:53,384 --> 01:06:57,105
And somehow that concept
has to become reality.
1145
01:06:59,307 --> 01:07:02,527
From the very beginning,
it was totally
1146
01:07:02,810 --> 01:07:06,189
A different type
of experience, for sure.
1147
01:07:08,107 --> 01:07:10,030
It all happened
pretty quickly.
1148
01:07:10,318 --> 01:07:12,616
Danny was gonna
jump the great wall,
1149
01:07:12,904 --> 01:07:15,202
We were going
to shoot it.
1150
01:07:25,250 --> 01:07:29,630
I remember flying there
on the night of fourth of July
1151
01:07:29,921 --> 01:07:34,927
And taking off from lax
and seeing all the fireworks.
1152
01:07:35,218 --> 01:07:37,346
There wasn't
a lot of information
1153
01:07:37,637 --> 01:07:39,560
About what
was gonna happen.
1154
01:07:42,850 --> 01:07:47,947
I didn't know anything about
the dimensions of the ramp.
1155
01:07:48,231 --> 01:07:50,404
We didn't know
what it was built on.
1156
01:07:50,692 --> 01:07:52,239
I hadn't seen photos.
1157
01:07:52,527 --> 01:07:54,529
We were all
really curious,
1158
01:07:54,821 --> 01:07:58,576
I think, to what exactly
it was gonna be like.
1159
01:08:04,289 --> 01:08:06,838
The week leading up to it,
it was pretty nerve-wracking.
1160
01:08:07,125 --> 01:08:10,504
These guys were just
working day and night,
1161
01:08:10,795 --> 01:08:13,799
So it was a definite rush
to make it happen.
1162
01:08:19,470 --> 01:08:23,771
The ramp was something
on such another level.
1163
01:08:24,058 --> 01:08:26,436
I would've never imagined
that it was gonna be
1164
01:08:26,728 --> 01:08:29,857
This 65-foot roll-in
built on top of a wall.
1165
01:08:30,148 --> 01:08:34,904
If something happened,
you'd just fall straight down.
1166
01:08:38,072 --> 01:08:41,121
This is
a structure of a size
1167
01:08:41,409 --> 01:08:45,209
That one man on the planet
maybe can do.
1168
01:08:53,046 --> 01:08:54,923
Now that's
a quarterpipe.
1169
01:08:55,214 --> 01:08:58,013
Now, that's what
we're talking about.
1170
01:08:58,301 --> 01:09:00,144
Oh, my god.
1171
01:09:00,428 --> 01:09:02,430
Jumping
the great wall is insane,
1172
01:09:02,722 --> 01:09:05,566
But then there's
a 32-foot tall quarterpipe
1173
01:09:05,850 --> 01:09:08,399
That he's gonna be charging
towards after jumping the wall,
1174
01:09:08,686 --> 01:09:10,905
And this things,
like, three stories tall!
1175
01:09:11,189 --> 01:09:12,281
He's gonna go 30...
1176
01:09:12,565 --> 01:09:14,363
he's gonna go
35 feet on this air!
1177
01:09:14,651 --> 01:09:16,904
He's gonna be
70 feet in the air.
1178
01:09:17,195 --> 01:09:19,163
Right here's
a good ten foot of air,
1179
01:09:19,447 --> 01:09:21,666
Just rolling
down this thing.
1180
01:09:23,368 --> 01:09:25,712
Once you realize
that this is what you do
1181
01:09:25,995 --> 01:09:27,918
And this is who you are,
then you're like,
1182
01:09:28,206 --> 01:09:30,755
Now I'm ready to really
put it on the line,
1183
01:09:31,042 --> 01:09:33,716
And now I need
to up the ante.
1184
01:09:41,094 --> 01:09:43,688
There's this quest
not so much for perfection,
1185
01:09:43,971 --> 01:09:46,440
But it's a quest
for significance or meaning
1186
01:09:46,724 --> 01:09:49,944
Or that I contributed
or that I changed things
1187
01:09:50,228 --> 01:09:52,447
Or that I mattered.
1188
01:09:52,730 --> 01:09:55,950
A guy like Danny,
he's only gonna participate
1189
01:09:56,234 --> 01:09:58,862
If he can offer something
that will change things.
1190
01:09:59,153 --> 01:10:01,121
To me, like,
that's honor.
1191
01:10:03,449 --> 01:10:05,622
I never would've thought
that I'd be here
1192
01:10:05,910 --> 01:10:09,585
To watch my friend
launching over the wall,
1193
01:10:09,872 --> 01:10:11,795
And it's hard
to even grasp, like,
1194
01:10:12,083 --> 01:10:13,881
The size of this
without being here.
1195
01:10:14,168 --> 01:10:17,422
This is bigger than the
megaramps... the super mega.
1196
01:10:29,767 --> 01:10:33,567
I remember going there
the first day and looking at it.
1197
01:10:33,855 --> 01:10:35,732
It was built
on scaffolding.
1198
01:10:36,023 --> 01:10:38,446
It was sketchy.
1199
01:10:38,735 --> 01:10:42,239
It took forever
to get up there.
1200
01:10:42,530 --> 01:10:44,999
It was definitely
not stable.
1201
01:10:45,283 --> 01:10:48,253
You could
feel it moving.
1202
01:10:48,536 --> 01:10:52,882
They would never let anyone
build something like that here.
1203
01:10:53,166 --> 01:10:57,137
You go up and you look down,
and it's just 100 feet down.
1204
01:10:57,420 --> 01:10:59,764
I was like, "man, I hope
this is okay".
1205
01:11:00,047 --> 01:11:02,800
Like, "I really hope
this is all right".
1206
01:11:03,092 --> 01:11:06,016
This whole thing
is shaking around.
1207
01:11:06,304 --> 01:11:07,476
Don't move like that
and it won't shake.
1208
01:11:09,307 --> 01:11:12,277
But watch.
Literally, watch.
1209
01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:14,654
Feel the whole tower?
1210
01:11:30,953 --> 01:11:33,456
There is
an addiction to progression.
1211
01:11:33,748 --> 01:11:35,421
You get this incredible buzz
1212
01:11:35,708 --> 01:11:38,632
When you land something
the first time.
1213
01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:40,297
When you have
that mindset,
1214
01:11:40,588 --> 01:11:42,590
It doesn't matter
how successful you are.
1215
01:11:42,882 --> 01:11:44,725
You have to keep
challenging yourself,
1216
01:11:45,009 --> 01:11:46,135
You have to keep
doing it,
1217
01:11:46,427 --> 01:11:48,100
And at some point
that becomes a curse.
1218
01:11:51,265 --> 01:11:53,438
Danny didn't go
to the great wall of China
1219
01:11:53,726 --> 01:11:55,694
Uncertain
that he could do it.
1220
01:11:55,978 --> 01:11:58,356
To the average person
it seems farfetched,
1221
01:11:58,648 --> 01:12:00,616
But he knows
what he's doing.
1222
01:12:00,900 --> 01:12:04,325
He's been skating probably
just as long as I've been alive.
1223
01:12:04,612 --> 01:12:06,114
Of course
there's human limits,
1224
01:12:06,405 --> 01:12:07,907
But he understands
what he is
1225
01:12:08,199 --> 01:12:10,372
Or isn't capable of.
1226
01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:15,418
It's a different breed
of human being.
1227
01:12:15,706 --> 01:12:18,926
It's Laird Hamilton,
it's Travis Pastrana,
1228
01:12:19,210 --> 01:12:20,587
It's Danny Way.
1229
01:12:20,878 --> 01:12:25,475
Everybody has
a self-preservation mechanism
1230
01:12:25,758 --> 01:12:27,010
In their mind
1231
01:12:27,301 --> 01:12:29,429
Blocking you
from being fearless.
1232
01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:31,097
They don't have it.
1233
01:12:31,389 --> 01:12:34,609
I feel I've always been
very good at risk analysis.
1234
01:12:34,892 --> 01:12:37,065
Everyone says
you gotta be fearless
1235
01:12:37,353 --> 01:12:39,355
To do what we do,
but it's not true.
1236
01:12:39,647 --> 01:12:41,945
I think anyone fearless
gets hurt too quick
1237
01:12:42,233 --> 01:12:43,576
To ever be great
at anything.
1238
01:12:43,860 --> 01:12:45,862
They might get
a shade nervous,
1239
01:12:46,153 --> 01:12:48,827
But never once do they
ever cross their mind
1240
01:12:49,115 --> 01:12:50,742
What might
happen to them.
1241
01:12:51,033 --> 01:12:53,707
The only thing
they think about
1242
01:12:53,995 --> 01:12:56,919
Is how they're
gonna make it.
1243
01:12:57,206 --> 01:13:01,211
Once you lose the fear of death,
you really learn how to live.
1244
01:13:01,502 --> 01:13:03,880
A lot of people
are just so paranoid
1245
01:13:04,171 --> 01:13:06,173
To get injured
or for failure
1246
01:13:06,465 --> 01:13:11,141
That they never let themselves
step up and live life.
1247
01:13:11,429 --> 01:13:15,650
Well, I think we should have
an extension up there.
1248
01:13:15,933 --> 01:13:18,402
I need...
I want the speed.
1249
01:13:18,686 --> 01:13:20,438
We could get
four feet taller on it.
1250
01:13:20,730 --> 01:13:23,654
Four foot taller. That thing
looks so gnarly already.
1251
01:13:23,941 --> 01:13:26,490
I'd rather have
that up there the first go
1252
01:13:26,777 --> 01:13:28,279
So I overshoot it
than undershoot it.
1253
01:13:28,571 --> 01:13:30,573
If I land on that deck
it's gonna be...
1254
01:13:30,865 --> 01:13:33,084
I'd rather land halfway down
than land on the deck.
1255
01:13:35,494 --> 01:13:38,122
Better to have too much speed
than not enough,
1256
01:13:38,414 --> 01:13:41,167
So at the last minute
we decided to go a little higher
1257
01:13:41,459 --> 01:13:43,837
And built a little
four-foot extension
1258
01:13:44,128 --> 01:13:45,675
So Danny can pump
off this thing
1259
01:13:45,963 --> 01:13:47,806
To get
a lot more speed.
1260
01:13:48,090 --> 01:13:49,967
At some point
you have to realize
1261
01:13:50,259 --> 01:13:52,011
How much do you
really love skating?
1262
01:13:52,303 --> 01:13:55,147
Are you willing to risk not
having it in your life anymore
1263
01:13:55,431 --> 01:13:58,480
Because you want to do
that one last thing?
1264
01:14:14,241 --> 01:14:18,212
The day before
the official event,
1265
01:14:18,496 --> 01:14:21,670
Danny says,
"I wanna try a jump".
1266
01:14:21,958 --> 01:14:24,131
I didn't know if he
was supposed to practice
1267
01:14:24,418 --> 01:14:25,840
Or not supposed
to practice.
1268
01:14:26,128 --> 01:14:29,007
We were pretty much
just keeping on eye on him
1269
01:14:29,298 --> 01:14:31,926
And seeing
what he was doing.
1270
01:14:39,350 --> 01:14:42,570
He wasn't supposed
to skate it,
1271
01:14:42,853 --> 01:14:44,480
So we were sitting
there all day,
1272
01:14:44,772 --> 01:14:46,570
And he's kind
of tinkering with the ramp
1273
01:14:46,857 --> 01:14:48,325
And finally
the Chinese officials
1274
01:14:48,609 --> 01:14:50,828
That were there to, like,
look at everything,
1275
01:14:51,112 --> 01:14:52,739
And these dudes
are pretty serious,
1276
01:14:53,030 --> 01:14:54,623
So we waited
until they bounced,
1277
01:14:54,907 --> 01:14:56,534
And he was like,
"all right, I'm going for it".
1278
01:14:56,826 --> 01:14:58,499
I just ran across
this bridge to shoot it.
1279
01:15:02,289 --> 01:15:05,509
I just hear someone saying,
"hey, Danny's gonna take a run".
1280
01:15:05,793 --> 01:15:08,512
There was no siding,
no safety nets, nothing.
1281
01:15:08,796 --> 01:15:12,426
I'm like, "oh, my god,
this can't be good. "
1282
01:15:16,929 --> 01:15:19,853
Danny will admit
that he's scared.
1283
01:15:21,976 --> 01:15:23,228
He'll admit
that he's scared
1284
01:15:23,519 --> 01:15:25,021
Standing on top
of the roll-in
1285
01:15:25,312 --> 01:15:26,905
At the megaramp
that he's scared of heights.
1286
01:15:27,189 --> 01:15:31,615
It's got
my heart moving.
1287
01:15:31,902 --> 01:15:36,703
Whatever he does
to channel that fear out
1288
01:15:36,991 --> 01:15:38,538
Is something
that I don't think
1289
01:15:38,826 --> 01:15:41,921
Most living people
ever learn to do.
1290
01:15:43,664 --> 01:15:47,214
You are rolling
down this massive structure
1291
01:15:47,501 --> 01:15:51,347
Into the complete unknown.
1292
01:15:51,630 --> 01:15:53,928
It's hard to imagine
a lot of other things
1293
01:15:54,216 --> 01:15:58,642
That could be
any more terrifying.
1294
01:15:58,929 --> 01:16:02,979
When you finally do push off
and you start going down,
1295
01:16:03,267 --> 01:16:06,191
There's no going back.
1296
01:16:20,868 --> 01:16:22,666
Oh! Oh!
1297
01:16:32,546 --> 01:16:35,299
Hey!
1298
01:16:36,759 --> 01:16:38,511
Danny!
1299
01:16:42,932 --> 01:16:46,106
It was terrible.
Terrible.
1300
01:16:46,393 --> 01:16:50,614
I didn't know
if he had a broken neck
1301
01:16:50,898 --> 01:16:53,617
Or if he was dead
or, you know,
1302
01:16:53,901 --> 01:16:56,199
He'd broken his leg
or what.
1303
01:16:56,487 --> 01:16:59,411
All you can do
is just sit there
1304
01:16:59,698 --> 01:17:02,326
And watch it and hope
that he's okay.
1305
01:17:18,509 --> 01:17:20,227
I'm speechless.
1306
01:17:20,511 --> 01:17:21,979
Speechless, man.
1307
01:17:22,263 --> 01:17:24,732
That was like
a car accident.
1308
01:17:25,015 --> 01:17:30,021
No skateboarder has
ever slammed like that.
1309
01:17:30,312 --> 01:17:32,735
God damn.
1310
01:17:33,023 --> 01:17:34,195
Dude.
1311
01:17:34,483 --> 01:17:37,077
I was like, "if this thing
is cancelled right now,
1312
01:17:37,361 --> 01:17:39,659
That's fine by me.
Danny's okay".
1313
01:17:39,947 --> 01:17:41,540
You need ice
on it immediately.
1314
01:17:41,824 --> 01:17:44,122
Ice right now, please,
and then we need this wrapped.
1315
01:17:44,410 --> 01:17:45,912
We need
more roll-in, man. Fuck!
1316
01:17:46,203 --> 01:17:48,752
His foot
was destroyed.
1317
01:17:49,039 --> 01:17:53,260
All I'm gonna do now is wrap
it so it doesn't swell, okay?
1318
01:17:58,465 --> 01:18:00,934
I'm over this stuff.
1319
01:18:01,218 --> 01:18:02,936
I just lost about
a year of my life
1320
01:18:03,220 --> 01:18:04,938
From standing
up there already.
1321
01:18:12,730 --> 01:18:15,404
We rush him to the hospital
and he's like,
1322
01:18:15,691 --> 01:18:17,409
"Ray, like, I just
don't wanna know.
1323
01:18:17,693 --> 01:18:20,572
I don't wanna know
if it's broken or not".
1324
01:18:27,578 --> 01:18:30,001
They are pissed.
1325
01:18:41,217 --> 01:18:44,187
We got a call basically
in the middle of the night
1326
01:18:44,470 --> 01:18:47,440
From the major sponsor
to say that
1327
01:18:47,723 --> 01:18:52,320
Danny isn't jumping
without major changes.
1328
01:18:52,603 --> 01:18:54,605
He came up short,
and we need to fix it.
1329
01:18:54,897 --> 01:18:56,991
We're gonna shorten
the gap by ten feet,
1330
01:18:57,274 --> 01:18:59,117
So that's what
our mission is now.
1331
01:19:12,289 --> 01:19:14,758
There's
a selfish aspect to putting
1332
01:19:15,042 --> 01:19:17,670
These really difficult goals
upon yourself
1333
01:19:17,962 --> 01:19:19,805
And putting yourself
at risk because
1334
01:19:20,089 --> 01:19:22,012
There are people
around you that love you
1335
01:19:22,299 --> 01:19:24,051
And they want
to see you survive.
1336
01:19:24,343 --> 01:19:25,640
They want to see
you grow old,
1337
01:19:25,928 --> 01:19:27,521
But you have
such tunnel vision
1338
01:19:27,805 --> 01:19:29,523
You don't hear
any of those voices
1339
01:19:29,807 --> 01:19:34,529
Because you have convinced
yourself you're capable of it.
1340
01:19:34,812 --> 01:19:37,281
I think Danny wants
his boy to see him
1341
01:19:37,564 --> 01:19:39,783
Be all the man he is,
and that means do what he does.
1342
01:19:40,067 --> 01:19:41,819
Not like, "oh, now
that I have my son,
1343
01:19:42,111 --> 01:19:44,489
I'm not gonna ride
the giant ramp".
1344
01:19:44,780 --> 01:19:46,532
I don't think so.
1345
01:19:46,824 --> 01:19:49,998
I remember him
calling the room
1346
01:19:50,286 --> 01:19:52,835
The morning of the jump
and being like,
1347
01:19:53,122 --> 01:19:54,795
"Yeah," like,
kind of laughing.
1348
01:19:55,082 --> 01:19:57,801
On the phone, he was like, "I guess
it's a lot of pressure, huh?"
1349
01:19:58,085 --> 01:20:00,554
I was like,
"yeah, do you think?"
1350
01:20:00,838 --> 01:20:02,556
'Cause he couldn't
move the foot.
1351
01:20:02,840 --> 01:20:04,183
It was his back foot,
1352
01:20:04,466 --> 01:20:07,515
And that's how you steer
your skateboard.
1353
01:20:07,803 --> 01:20:10,056
If he doesn't steer
his skateboard right,
1354
01:20:10,347 --> 01:20:12,441
He's going off the side
and he's not gonna make it.
1355
01:20:34,204 --> 01:20:36,298
The next day came,
1356
01:20:36,582 --> 01:20:38,584
And all of a sudden
it's not practice anymore.
1357
01:20:38,876 --> 01:20:39,968
It's this huge thing.
1358
01:20:40,252 --> 01:20:41,595
There's people
running everywhere.
1359
01:20:41,879 --> 01:20:45,053
There's crowds.
There's camera crews.
1360
01:20:45,341 --> 01:20:48,845
Hopefully this works.
He's gonna try it.
1361
01:20:49,136 --> 01:20:51,309
There's nothing
that's gonna stop him.
1362
01:20:51,597 --> 01:20:56,273
Danny has to get his mind
set before he does jump.
1363
01:20:56,560 --> 01:20:59,530
He's gotta be alone.
1364
01:20:59,813 --> 01:21:02,282
When he went in
to do his meditating thing,
1365
01:21:02,566 --> 01:21:04,239
I went in
to wish him luck,
1366
01:21:04,526 --> 01:21:06,449
And I said, "hey, Danny,
1367
01:21:06,737 --> 01:21:09,081
Tim wants to do
the jump with you".
1368
01:21:09,365 --> 01:21:10,958
And he goes,
"what do you mean?"
1369
01:21:11,241 --> 01:21:12,868
And I go, "put this
in your pocket
1370
01:21:13,160 --> 01:21:15,583
So your dad's with you
when you do the jump".
1371
01:21:15,871 --> 01:21:19,375
I would've never
have started skateboarding.
1372
01:21:21,919 --> 01:21:24,217
He never
in a million years
1373
01:21:24,505 --> 01:21:25,973
Thought I would ever think
1374
01:21:26,256 --> 01:21:30,887
To bring some
of his dad's ashes to him
1375
01:21:31,178 --> 01:21:32,930
So Tim could be there
with him
1376
01:21:33,222 --> 01:21:34,769
And make him land.
1377
01:21:39,269 --> 01:21:41,738
He needed skating
to kind of get through
1378
01:21:42,022 --> 01:21:44,491
His hardships in life,
and once you get through
1379
01:21:44,775 --> 01:21:46,527
Something like that
and it's like,
1380
01:21:46,819 --> 01:21:48,162
Okay, now you're indebted.
1381
01:21:48,445 --> 01:21:50,413
He knows that skating
made him who he is.
1382
01:21:50,697 --> 01:21:52,950
Now he's giving everything
he can to skating.
1383
01:21:56,245 --> 01:22:01,502
We all went down
some dark roads,
1384
01:22:01,792 --> 01:22:05,717
But it made us stronger,
a lot stronger people.
1385
01:22:08,799 --> 01:22:10,472
There is a lot
of anticipation.
1386
01:22:10,759 --> 01:22:12,386
You can just hear it
in the crowd,
1387
01:22:12,678 --> 01:22:14,931
And I remember
there being a lot of waiting
1388
01:22:15,222 --> 01:22:18,192
Because it was
a live television thing.
1389
01:22:18,475 --> 01:22:20,523
Twenty-five million people
are gonna see this.
1390
01:22:20,811 --> 01:22:24,987
Danny Way is
in a very tricky position.
1391
01:22:25,274 --> 01:22:27,993
He could encourage
a tremendous number of athletes
1392
01:22:28,277 --> 01:22:30,325
To try things
that are dangerous,
1393
01:22:30,612 --> 01:22:33,991
But he's also gotta honor
the pioneer in him
1394
01:22:34,283 --> 01:22:37,332
That wants to share
what is possible.
1395
01:22:45,252 --> 01:22:49,974
I cannot even imagine
what was going through his mind,
1396
01:22:50,257 --> 01:22:54,262
But he had put himself in a
situation where he had to do it.
1397
01:22:54,553 --> 01:23:00,401
He knew that,
and that's how he does it.
1398
01:23:00,684 --> 01:23:05,235
If you want
to live a life
1399
01:23:05,522 --> 01:23:08,071
Where you're
breaking ground,
1400
01:23:08,358 --> 01:23:11,407
That's an uncomfortable
place to be.
1401
01:23:11,695 --> 01:23:14,574
It's full of uncertainty,
it's full of challenge,
1402
01:23:14,865 --> 01:23:16,867
It can be full
of disappointment,
1403
01:23:17,159 --> 01:23:21,335
And Danny's one of those people
that can live in that space.
1404
01:23:35,260 --> 01:23:37,388
You get yourself
all the way to the top
1405
01:23:37,679 --> 01:23:40,023
Of the mountain,
and what's left but lightning?
1406
01:23:40,307 --> 01:23:41,900
And that, to me,
just says Danny.
1407
01:23:42,184 --> 01:23:43,857
What are you doing?
1408
01:23:44,144 --> 01:23:46,021
But what else
is left for you?
1409
01:24:51,378 --> 01:24:53,847
When he makes it,
you're emotionally involved.
1410
01:24:54,131 --> 01:24:57,681
Everyone there was.
1411
01:24:57,968 --> 01:25:01,438
Congratulations, Danny!
You're great!
1412
01:25:01,722 --> 01:25:03,895
I was so scared, I held
my breath all the way.
1413
01:25:04,182 --> 01:25:07,356
How do you feel?
1414
01:25:07,644 --> 01:25:11,490
I think I'm more scared
than you are, for sure.
1415
01:25:11,773 --> 01:25:14,367
So, are you satisfied
with this jump?
1416
01:25:14,651 --> 01:25:19,532
It felt great. I'm going to take another
jump just for personal satisfaction.
1417
01:25:21,700 --> 01:25:24,328
A lot of the people
that were doing that event
1418
01:25:24,620 --> 01:25:26,338
Were just like,
"what's going on?
1419
01:25:26,622 --> 01:25:28,670
Why would he
do it again?"
1420
01:25:28,957 --> 01:25:31,676
But that's Danny.
1421
01:25:31,960 --> 01:25:35,180
Twenty-five million people
learned what makes Danny Way
1422
01:25:35,464 --> 01:25:39,139
Danny Way live
on Chinese television.
1423
01:25:39,426 --> 01:25:43,272
To do that
takes such a great dream
1424
01:25:43,555 --> 01:25:45,023
And a dreamer.
1425
01:25:48,268 --> 01:25:50,487
It's the greatest expression
of freedom
1426
01:25:50,771 --> 01:25:53,274
In a land
that is so controlled.
1427
01:25:57,361 --> 01:26:02,117
It makes you realize
anything's possible.
1428
01:26:09,956 --> 01:26:11,754
There are
only three people
1429
01:26:12,042 --> 01:26:14,386
with their name in gold
on the great wall,
1430
01:26:14,670 --> 01:26:16,843
And Danny's one of them.
1431
01:26:17,130 --> 01:26:21,510
And that, to me,
is so incredible.
1432
01:26:21,802 --> 01:26:25,477
My son has his name
on the great wall of China.
1433
01:26:33,480 --> 01:26:36,609
When he'd used to say crazy
things, I'd laugh and stuff.
1434
01:26:36,900 --> 01:26:41,076
I don't doubt anything
that he says
1435
01:26:41,363 --> 01:26:44,367
When it comes
to skateboarding anymore,
1436
01:26:44,658 --> 01:26:47,628
And I never will again.
1437
01:26:53,333 --> 01:26:55,427
Where we came from had everything
do with kind of who we are.
1438
01:26:55,711 --> 01:26:57,805
People didn't like
people from Vista.
1439
01:26:58,088 --> 01:27:00,932
We felt like we
had more to prove.
1440
01:27:01,216 --> 01:27:02,638
Danny's proved it.
1441
01:27:06,680 --> 01:27:10,651
He did it for himself.
He really did.
1442
01:27:10,934 --> 01:27:13,232
And now he always tries
to make the sport
1443
01:27:13,520 --> 01:27:15,272
Better and better
and better
1444
01:27:15,564 --> 01:27:17,362
'Cause he knows
what it did for him.
1445
01:27:17,649 --> 01:27:20,698
What all the reasons are,
he may not know every reason,
1446
01:27:20,986 --> 01:27:24,240
But for whatever the reasons
are that made him feel good,
1447
01:27:24,531 --> 01:27:28,331
He wants other children
to experience that love
1448
01:27:28,618 --> 01:27:32,293
And that great feeling
of just going out and skating.
1449
01:28:00,150 --> 01:28:03,370
I don't think
I've been satisfied ever.
1450
01:28:11,328 --> 01:28:13,501
There's always an urge
to do something
1451
01:28:13,789 --> 01:28:16,588
Above and beyond
what you've done before.
1452
01:28:36,770 --> 01:28:39,899
The new territory,
1453
01:28:40,190 --> 01:28:42,818
You know,
the land of the unknown,
1454
01:28:43,109 --> 01:28:45,578
The experimenting
with things that
1455
01:28:45,862 --> 01:28:49,036
Could seem impossible
and defining it's possible,
1456
01:28:49,324 --> 01:28:51,076
Those are the things
that drive me.
1457
01:28:51,368 --> 01:28:54,622
At the end of the day,
that's all that drives me.
