Guy Martin to attempt Wall of Death world record - LIVE!

Guy Martin will attempt a record-breaking assault on the largest Wall of Death ever built on March 28.
It looks nuts lol

Hell yeah, Guy is just awesome.

Just wish amazon or Netflix would buy him. As channel 4 don't give him a big enough budget. Fir his tv series. But I doubt he has world appeal just UK.

I enjoyed the dodgy wall of death Colin Furze made from bits of old crate, now that was mental

Can't wait to see this there was quite a bit about it in this latest book.

Looking forward to it. Enjoyed the F1 stuff last night, although do think a MotoGP bike should have been used instead.

From reading his book it sounded like it was far more difficult than I imagined it might be.

I don't think he'd go for it. He was apparently offered the top gear job and turned that down. I reckon Amazon and Netflix would want him to be a full time TV personality as well which he has said he doesn't want.

Looking forward to this though. Caught up on the F1 show on Saturday and really enjoyed it. Him and David Coulthard went together quite well.

From reading his books he has no interest what so ever in becoming a TV star he just likes doing things he's interested in and if that happens to fit with something the production company want to do then great, if not then he's more than happy being a truck mechanic and doing some racing every now and again.

I think that's a large part of what makes him good to watch, you can see he's a great big excitable kid when he's doing these things rather than just doing them because he's stuck in a contract and has to.

Starts at 7.15pm, looking forward to this!

Thanks for the reminder!

Guys my hero

Really hope above everything else he stays safe as a lot of people have lost their lives doing the wall of death

Captain · 28 Mar 2016 at 19:51

Genuinely anxious watching this, hopefully it goes smoothly and he doesn't get hurt.

The_One · 28 Mar 2016 at 19:53

Ive got sweaty palms this is big time dangerous

tom_e · 28 Mar 2016 at 20:03

The sound! I'd struggle to stop going round just to listen to that.

The_One · 28 Mar 2016 at 20:05

Go guy!!!

It says something when even the most experienced wall of death rider going hasn't attempted this in the past

Just how does guy's conkers fit on that seat???

tom_e · 28 Mar 2016 at 20:07

I just love his way of looking at things, does physics say it's possible? Yes. Let's do it then

The_One · 28 Mar 2016 at 20:10

lol @ guys comment about the metal in his spine

gcaster · 28 Mar 2016 at 20:13

That crash makes me squirm every time I see it.

Pigeon_Killer · 28 Mar 2016 at 20:17

I genuinely think he's got a screw lose and I absolutely love him for it.
