2000 and Youtube Psychology

[kahluaAPX]

Congrats on ur subscriber numbers from the US :)

[extreme601]

@kahluaAPX Thanks very much!

[MrAdammurphy1993]

Your right near the bus station :P there is always people pulling out everywere around that area, its kinda dodgey :/

[extreme601]

@MrAdammurphy1993 Yup, it is pretty dodgy :P

[NScaleRRFan]

Helping your cause to reach 2000 subs, I subbed :)

[extreme601]

@NScaleRRFan Thanks, dude!

[Defaulted3]

Thumbs up with you live on 3:32 Fagbury Road. 

[extreme601]

@Defaulted3 No one lives there, it's an industrial estate.

[Defaulted3]

@extreme601 It was worth a try :(

[bfmv580]

I'm pretty sure I know exactly where you were in the clip from Norwich, the top of St Stephens Street outside the bus station. I go past there almost everyday. And I know what you mean about the A140, trying to cross it from two smaller roads is terrifying. Congratulations on the 2000 subs, I'm not sure exactly when I first subscribed but it was only a few hundred in. Looking forward to another year of videos :-)

[extreme601]

@bfmv580 You're absolutely right. I remember your comments from a LONG time ago, I really appreciate the long term viewership! Thanks :)

[ParisianZee]

Congratulations man. I do agree on the meetup thing as well.

[extreme601]

@ParisianZee Thanks, sir! :)

[instruct2008]

Those dreaded ford ka's again, I steer very clear of those and the drivers (eastrogen powered) ;)

[extreme601]

@instruct2008 Haha, yeeeeah :)

[OoxTruExoO]

You kind of admitted that you couldn't take a 65 year old... lol! Holy poop that was close at the end, nice reactions though, you would definitely have locked up on such a slippery surface if you have tried to brake instead.

[extreme601]

@OoxTruExoO Hmm, yes that's an issue. Absolutely right, thanks! :)

[Blahdeblah52]

You're very welcome ;)

I'm enjoying making the vlogs mate. 20 subs or 20,000 I'd still enjoy it. It gives me another reason to ride the bike and THAT'S THE MAIN THING :)

You'll love filtering in London...probably lol!

Thumbs up matey.

[extreme601]

@Blahdeblah52 You're absolutely right, it facilitates awesomeness :)

I'm really looking forward to it, thanks so much!

[elkfazer1]

I laughed at the bit where you mention about safety when meeting up with complete strangers, you can never be too careful after all, but I had my own version in my head of what you were going to say..such as... "You say you're a 17 yr old from Manchester, but you could be a 65 yr old Man-Rapist!" ;-)

[extreme601]

@elkfazer1 You say that, but it's extra funny because that's exactly what I almost said and changed my mind last minute, you can hear the hesitation :D

[Rekilo]

Woo, nice. You deserve the 2k given you're articulate, polite and know what you're doing and all that.

I hope I get to do a meetup with you one day, as you seem like genuinely nice guy. Just need to get a bike first.

[extreme601]

@Rekilo Thanks very much, I really appreciate that!

Absolutely, I'm sure we will :)

[Jestington]

Congratz on the 2000 i'm waiting on my 20 haha, great videos!

[extreme601]

@Jestington Thanks ;)

[MrRowanMess]

Congratulations on nearly getting to 2000. Sorry to hear you got pulled out on, but its great you had the camera with you. Every motorcyclist should own one, it might encourage people to look out for us a bit more... bloody shed pilots.

[extreme601]

@MrRowanMess I never ride without it these days, it's just too good a tool for evidence. I completely agree, everyone should. Thanks very much!

[Mort221]

17 yr old from manchester...I never sent you an email!

[extreme601]

@Mort221 Haha, what are the odds on that? I was completely making it up :P

[EliteWarfare]

i went up to Norwich at the weekend lol.... the A140 is a bitch

[extreme601]

@EliteWarfare It really is.

[bakker46]

Congrats on the upcoming milestone 2000subs :-)

[extreme601]

@bakker46 Thanks very much!

[gpzDave]

Great video, that's an interesting point. Must be kind of scary for super popular YouTubers who get stopped in the street...

[extreme601]

@gpzDave Yeah, definitely.

[Friz020]

Now I'm finding myself in your shoes (although I doubt as often) and its really odd getting asked to ride with this strangers. But I love that someone thinks I'm cool enough to ask to hang out with me! :D

[extreme601]

@Friz020 That's a very good point, meeting you really was epic though, I somewhat knew who you were and I was definitely looking forward to it :)

You know how hard it is to make me ride any real distance anyway, so doing it for someone I don't know is extra hard! It's hardly surprising, you come across excellently on video :D

[Friz020]

You're totally right about the one way thing, but its weird on the other person too! I'd been watching your videos for about a year before we met and it was really odd when I saw you in real life because I felt like I knew you but you didn't have the foggiest who I was :P

I found it really difficult to talk without coming across like a massive weird stalker at first... Obviously not the impression I wanted to leave!

[GingeRbiker82]

2000! Wow one day.....;( lol good stuff!

[extreme601]

@GingeRbiker82 Thanks ;)

[JumpinPakFlash]

Cool American van at 0:12 :)

I really enjoy your vids! :)

[extreme601]

@JumpinPakFlash Thanks, man!

[WildBill1006]

Oh the price you pay for fame. lol congrats on the future 2000 well deserved

[extreme601]

@WildBill1006 Thanks very much!

[lauriejennifer]

Why? The epic accent. And you're a great guy. My subscriber base has been steadily dropping with each new video I've been posting lately. LOL

I hear ya on the one-way relationship thing. I have work acquaintances who are quasi-famous in real life. It's awkward to see how often complete strangers approach them as if they know them. They handle it gracefully, but I don't know that I would.

As a female vlogger, I'm especially careful about meetups.

[extreme601]

@lauriejennifer Haha, I really appreciate that, thanks. The accent isn't quite so epic locally though!

Awh, surely that can't be true?!

I'd be the same, I think I'd handle it really badly, I'm just thankful it's never happened to me yet :D

[joewarcupinhull]

I'm a 17y/o from Hull, wanna meet?? ;) I'll only but your bike on bricks and "borrow" your cameras haha

But seriously, your videos annoy me, since watching your luggage videos, I have a urge to go out and buy myself a CBF125 with a top box and saddle bags lol

Keep the videos coming

[DazzyGames]

@joewarcupinhull I ride a CBF 125, its a great bike :D

[extreme601]

@joewarcupinhull Haha, sounds very tempting :D

Lol, sorry about that.. although I think you totally should, do it!

[Oliverbakeman]

His so right, I feel like I know him. Crazy stuff!

[extreme601]

@Oliverbakeman Haha, leave me alone you crazy stalker :D

[gibbokpl]

Module 2*

[gibbokpl]

Could you do a video about the motorbike module test, with your tips etc thanks :)

[extreme601]

@gibbokpl I'm afraid that with the new testing system scheduled for January 2013 it would be a poor investment to make a tutorial for the old system this year. There's a bunch of videos out there that I'm sure can help you :)

[unreal44]

i live near norwich lol

[extreme601]

@unreal44 It's a nice place :)

[ChrisDysonVoice]

If in London just watch out for moving across several lanes which you will need to do sometimes. Other vehicles don't give you any room and you almost have to throw yourself in front of them before they'll give way! Also watch your side panniers as cars like to ride slowly into them in queuing traffic. You have to have eyes in the back of everything.

[extreme601]

@ChrisDysonVoice I'll bear that in mind, thanks. I'll also try not to take them, I'll wear a backpack if I have to, just to keep as narrow as possible.

[curlyblakeybiker]

I too was in Norwich over the weekend, how uncanny, even if it was only for 15 minutes (being taxi for the sister!) I'm sure you've thought of it but a high vis jacket may be a good choice for London :) ride safe as always!

[extreme601]

@curlyblakeybiker Awesome, and that's not a bad idea, might have to try and acquire one.

[Blurredman]

Good video, Psychology is such an interesting subject. Strange then, that I got an F in it for A level...

Congrats for future 2k subscriptions!

[extreme601]

@Blurredman Better than me: Unqualified :)

Thanks!

[Rickster303]

i was in the same position as that a couple of weeks ago someone wanted to go for a ride so i used facebook and other things like his twitter name and manged to find out who the person was, he was who he said he was tbh so arranged the meet up for him to drop out last moment lol

[extreme601]

@Rickster303 Sounds like a pain :P

[Rickster303]

@extreme601 well was easy took me seconds tbh and congrats on 2k subs

[extreme601]

@Rickster303 Thanks very much :)

[YarekBalear]

What do you mean you don't know your viewers? That's it I'm taking all my photos of you down from my three rooms upstairs! Don't worry, I'll leave the ones in the bathroom :P

[extreme601]

@YarekBalear Haha, I appreciate it, thanks :P

[cowtipper84]

What day are you going to be in london?

[extreme601]

@cowtipper84 Next Sunday I think.

[oli333]

when are you in London mate? And congrats on the subscribers, didn't realise you had so many! you're like a kind of super celebrity : P

[extreme601]

@oli333 Going to the MCN Bike show on Sunday 5th with Daffee. Want to join? :)

Haha, thanks but not quite. Bike vlogging is way to much of a niche subject.
