    Expect lots of “WOOOHOOOO” “YEEEHAAA” and the like, with lots of GoPro gimbal action…

    I only watch Scotty Cranmers videos because the guy is a genius on a BMX, multiple X Games gold medalist and very humble and grateful that he gets to earn a living from the sport.
    Tragically if you don’t know, he had a very bad face plant recently and broke his back. There have been further videos of him in hospital recovering, but he’s still in a wheelchair and has had the front of his skull removed because of a blood clot on the brain.
    If you get ten minutes, watch an old video to see how good he is, then watch a recovery video to see how someone can be so positive and upbeat after having such a life changing accident.

    Today I’ve learnt that Youtube has channels.

    Lesson 2: you can subscribe to those channels and it will tell you when new stuff is posted on them and will also give you recommendations for similar channels you might like.

    I only really watch GMBN The Dirt shed show is a must watch every week.
    In Summer I watch Red Bull’s channel for the World Cup MTB stuff.
    Everything else I watch is a bit random.
    I just watched a great little video with Steve Peat,Guy Martin & Joe Barnes up in Scotland ‘Mojo trail diaries’.
    Most other stuff I watch concerns motorcycle racing or Rugby League.
    I think these days,certainly when the RL season is on,I watch more Youtube than TV

    Scotty Cramner – The inner child in me still likes to watch some BMX vids, good fun content on here daily.

    IFL – Boxing interviews aplenty

    GCN – Really good, sure we all know about it.

    GMBN – Same as above.

    The Game Chasers – Now up to date on the seasons, but great video game show and could imagine it on TV if it wasn’t so niche.

    I use YouTube quite a lot, been really handy for lower league Scottish football highlights, Cyclocross, WSOP shows and plenty more.

    +1Fully charged. Just watching again and have to say it is REALLY nice to see quality production, presentation is engaging as is the content and not hardly a whiff of identity politics. Just watched a Tesla Wall installed and the Renault Electric Show coverage.

    the anti-TG?

    Also:

    – the slow-mo guys. Because I want to see a 1000 mousetraps go off in slow motion on a trampoline. And stuff.

    – Dave Jenvey. Englishman learning how to mtb. Brummie Balls of steel and nerves of custard. Compelling like a car crash. Ok, bike crash. Lots of.

    – failarmy. Because late night beers after a ride need this.

    Ed Pratt – the unicycle around the world guy. He makes a great bike travel video – and is a great change from the usual bikepacking dudes.

    Tall Order Webisodes- Bas Keep and friends, amazing bmx rider, did the Walls series and RedBull quartermaster at Revolution Bikepark.

    [video]http://youtu.be/jGOKUrgQi5E[/video]

    Harry Main- Another amazing park bmx rider who’s recently getting into mtb. You have to skip around his vlogs about doing his washing and shit though…

    [video]http://youtu.be/jpvnPd0Y4MU[/video]

    Ali Clarkson Awesome trials rider. In the Drop and Roll team with Danny Mac.

    [video]http://youtu.be/–R2pbuK5mo[/video]

    Ben Cathro- Scottish racer and skills coach. Great insights into racing interspersed with some really cool sections on technique and line choice at world cups etc. Also, just seems a sound geezer.

    Racer TV Beautiful cafe racer and custom motorcycles.

    SmarterEveryDay – general sciencey stuff, explained well. Check out the one where he got invited to see the Mars Rover twin that NASA keep in a shed.
    standupmaths – nerdy maths stuff with a bit of stand-up comedy (about maths). Lots of stuff about the maths behind day-today things.
    Cody’sLab – proper dangerous physics and chemistry experiments done by a self-taught bloke in his garage.
    Veritasium – more science, explained well.
    WranglerStar – Some bloke who lives on and works a big chunk of the arse end of nowhere in the states. He’s a god’n’guns redneck but I’ll forgive him that because 95% of his videos don’t mention either god or guns, and he has a passion for tools, especially antiques. I started watching for his series on building a treehouse, but stayed for the tools.

    Honourable mentions:

    LastWeekTonight – John Oliver
    Physics Girl – more sciencey goodness
    Vsauce , Vsauce2 and Vsauce3 – I’m beginning to see a pattern here…
    and of course colinfurze

    RHLSTP?

    Richard Herring’s Leicester Square Theatre Podcast – essentially him having hour long chats with celebrities/comedians using (usually slightly filthy) questions they’ve never been asked before. Had everyone from Fry, Izzard, Coogan, Pegg etc to lesser known.

    This reads like an advert, it ain’t, I just love this series!

    and of course colinfurze

    These days he’s become a bit big time and doesn’t seem to appeal so much for me.
    I loved it when he was just some crazy cat in his shed but now a lot of his inventions are sponsor-led seemingly.
    Mind you, he’s just paying his bills I guess…
