    probably because you are slow... in comparison to videos that look like the rider is going faster?

    It always looks slower on video. Why, I've no idea. It's the same with skating. You'll often see skaters step up the pace a notch - or 3 - when filming. Super fast stuff. And it still looks tame when watched back.

    As a general rule. If it looks fast on video. Chances are they're f******* rocketing.
