I envy anyone with a god-given talent like that so much. There's a handfull of people in this world with skillz making them almost unique in the entire world, who can travel the world to present their skill, do what they love doing for a living and are welcome and admired everywhere.

Then there are people like us with no skillz and no talents what-so-ever, those have to work a fulltime job and stick to lifting weights, the only "sport" where neither skill nor talent is required ::)

Looks a lot like the area I like to hike in the wicklow mountains - waking up in the morning in the summer, lighting up a fire, morning coffee, sitting on a huge rock in front of you down below a lake, ciggar in one hand, coffee in the other.... AND THERE IS FUCKING NOBODY AROUND!

Thats probably what I miss most since I have the baby boy I wasn't once at my favorite spots.

EVERYBODY has a talent..... everybody, the problem is to find out what it is, and early enough before its crippled and takes a lot longer to rediscover.

If you don't support that talent you're talking about from your early childhood on (given the fact you've found it) it's impossible to make it to the top of the world in any discipline.

Didn't think Danny Macaskill could ever out do his last video. And I'm pleased to say that this one indeed topped it. Thanks for this. Awesome.

His other video(over 22 million views) that was also amazing

Already over 4 million views in less than a month. This one here will for sure go over 20 million like his last one. He's a money machine
