He expanded on this winning concept for his next video, <em>Road <\/em><em>Bike <\/em><em>Party, <\/em>which went on to rack up nearly 14 million views, and remains just as wild and entertaining today. The followup was derailed by Martyn\u2019s life-changing back injury, but was finished by his friends Danny MacAskill and Chris Akrigg, and now sits at 20m views.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"article-full-body sans-serif\">Speaking of <strong>Danny Mac <\/strong>, the flying Scotsman is synonymous with viral trials videos. He came to prominence with his 2009 <em>Inspired Bicycles <\/em>edit, which gained an astonishing 39m views. Since then, he\u2019s kept on racking up hits, with 112m views of <em>Cascadia <\/em>(a roof-riding nail-biter complete with frontflip into the sea) and 92m for the kids\u2019 bedroom-inspired <em>Imaginate.&nbsp;<\/em>More recently, it\u2019s <strong>Fabio Wibmer <\/strong>who\u2019s one of the most successful online MTBers, with 215m views of <em>Wibmer\u2019s Law, <\/em>a slickly-edited street trials adventure, and 142m for the snow-bound ridiculousness of <em>Fabiolous Escape 2. <\/em>The late <strong>Kelly McGarry\u2019s <\/strong>GoPro footage of his 72ft Canyon Gap backflip at Red Bull Rampage 2013 (right) surpasses even that, though, topping 217m views.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"no-tts wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"no-tts aligncenter size-large\"><img
