YOU GUYS ARE FOR REAL WE SAY SOME GOOD UH, SOME MEAN BATTLE SCARS WONDERING AROUND HERE, YOU GOT ANY SCARS TO SHOW US. YEAH I GOT A SCAR RIGHT HERE IN MY EYE, I GOT WHOOPED LAST NIGHT I WAS PASSING A HORSE AND KINDA HAD A LITTLE BIT OF WHIPPING GOING ON AND I GOT HIM A FEW AND HE GOT ME, HE GOT ME ONE TIME I THINK HE SWINGS IT ONCE AND GOT ME BUT HEY, IT'S ANYTHING GOES HUH? HE GAVE UP HIS POSITION, I'LL TAKE THE MONEY. (LAUGHS) YOU ARE NO STRANGER TO RUNNING INTO THIS ARENA #1, WHAT ABOUT THAT FEELING, TELL THEM THAT. OH THAT'S, THAT'S A FEELING TOO THAT IS INDESCRIBABLE, CAUSE IT'S TO ME EQUIVALENT AS SOMEONE WINNING THE INDY, IS WHAT A LOT OF THESE LOCALS COMPARE IT TO AROUND HERE AND IT'S TOUGH. I SPENT A LOT OF YEARS, I BEEN RACING IN IT FOR SINCE 1975. WHEN I WAS A YOUNGER KID AND I FIRST STARTED THIS MAN NAMED EDDIE TIMENTWA HE WAS AN OLDER GUY, WELL KNOWN, HE'S PASSED AWAY NOW ABOUT THREE YEARS NOW HE BROUGHT ME IN THAT SWEAT LODGE THE FIRST TIME AND EXPLAINED THE RACE TO ME IN THE TRADITIONAL WAY. THEY SAY LOOK AT IT LIKE WHEN YOUR HEADING TO THE TOP OF THE HILL, YOU AND ALL THESE GUYS ARE GOING TO WAR, THE FIRST ONE OFF OF THAT HILL AND ACROSS THAT LINE, THAT'S THE ONE WHO WANTS IT THE MOST.

YOU LINED UP ON THE START LINE, THE GUN GOES OFF AND THEN YOU GUYS JUST CHARGE IT, WHAT HAPPENS NEXT. WELL WE GOT A PRETTY GOOD LITTLE RUN AT IT BEFORE WE GET TO THE EDGE SO WE'RE GOING ABOUT AS FAST AS THEM HORSES CAN GO WHEN THEY BREAK OVER THE TOP AND MOST OF THEM STAY AIRBORNE FOR AT LEAST 20-30 FEET BEFORE THEY TOUCHDOWN. IT'S QUITE THE LITTLE ADRENALINE FLOW RIGHT THERE YOU KNOW. THERE IS NO OTHER ONE LIKE THAT IN THE WORLD. THEY SHOOT THE GUN, NO RULES MAN, YOU GO FOR IT. THAT'S SO AWESOME. YOU GO FOR IT MAN YOUR JUST CHARGING. YOU CHARGE. RIGHT WHEN YOU HIT THE BOTTOM YOU HIT THAT AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL YOU GRAB THAT OH HISTORY HANDLE AND IT JUST KEEPS YOU IN YOUR SADDLE. HITTING THAT WATER AND YOU DON'T WRECK IT'S KIND OF LIKE A GUY PARACHUTING AND LOOKING UP THERE AND SEEING HIS CHUTE'S OPEN, IT'S A PRETTY COMFORTING FEELING. IT'S VERY QUICK, YOU KNOW JUST I MAKE IT LIKE A DANCING CONTEST YOU KNOW WHO EVER MAKES THE WRONG MOVE IS GONNA LOSE YOU KNOW YOU GOTTA MAKE EVERY MOVE RIGHT. IT'S THE BEST RUSH OF THE YEAR. YOU KNOW EVERYBODY WAITS TO GO SNOWBOARDING OR DO THEIR SKY DIVING, THAT'S WHAT WE WAIT FOR EVERY YEAR, WE WAIT FOR THAT TO BAIL OFF THAT HILL, THAT'S THE BEST RUSH OF OUR LIFE RIGHT THERE. I GET THE FEELING THAT I WILL NEVER EXPERIENCE JUST LAUNCHING OFF THAT CLIFF, SO TELL ME THAT EXPERIENCE. WHAT IT FEELS LIKE INSIDE YOUR MELON AS YOUR FLYING OFF THAT THING. I NEVER FIGURED IT AS A CLIFF OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT YOU KNOW JUST A HILL TO ME.

JUST A HILL (LAUGHS) IT'S A RUSH, HE WAS I'D SAY BULL RIDER IF HE WAS A BULL RIDER IT WOULD BE ABOUT LIKE 2-3 BULL RIDERS RIDE STRAIGHT IN A ROW.

TELL US ABOUT THIS SPECIAL TAPE JOB WE'RE DOING. MOSTLY IT'S JUST TO KEEP HIM FROM GETTING HURT. YEAH GOTTA KEEP YOUR HORSES SAFE. GOTTA KEEP HIM HEALTHY SO HE CAN RIDE TOMORROW TOO.

HOW DOES IT FEEL? WELL IT FEELS REAL GOOD NOW KNOWING EVERYBODY MADE IT IN AND IT WAS A GOOD SAFE RACE. NO HORSES ARE HURT AND EVERYBODY'S DOING GOOD YOU KNOW. THAT'S WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT. TALK TO ME ABOUT IT. TALK TO ME ABOUT THE ADRENALINE RIGHT NOW. ADRENALINE IS GOING PRETTY GOOD FOR EVERYBODY PROBABLY EVERYBODY IS TELLING THEIR STORIES. JUST GO WITH THE FLOW YOU KNOW IT'S PART OF THE TRADITION. MAKE A LITTLE NOISE RIGHT HERE, THIS IS IT. (SCREAMS)

I'LL TELL YA UH YOU KNOW HOW TO DRESS. EVERY TIME WE SEE YOU (LAUGHS) I TELL YOU THESE ARE LIKE LEATHERS WHEN IT COMES TO A MOTORCYCLE WRECK, I TELL YOU YOU SKID DOWN THAT OLD SAND AND IT'LL EAT THE HIDE OFF YOU IF YOU DON'T HAVE THESE ON. SO TELL US WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU TONIGHT. THIS NIGHT I GOT OFF THE LINE REAL GOOD. WHEN THAT GUN WENT OFF HE SHOT OUT THERE AND WE GOT OUT THERE TILL THE EDGE AND I AIN'T KIDDIN IT FELT LIKE ONE OF THEM WHITE GUYS ON ONE OF THEM FLYING SQUIRRELS HE JUST TUCKED HIS OLD LEGS WAY OUT AHEAD OF HIM AND WE WAS AIRBORNE FOR ABOUT 30 FT AND HE CAUGHT RIGHT UP TO EVERYTHING, DID REALLY GOOD FOR ESPECIALLY BEING HIS FIRST YEAR AND HAVING A COUPLE BAD RUNS BUT HE DONE GREAT, WE GOT DOWN THERE AT THE WATER AND HE KIND OF SUBMARINED A LITTLE BIT AND TOOK HIM A WHILE TO GET BACK UP BUT WE FINISHED THE RACE. THIS IS WHAT I FIND AMAZING ABOUT YOU, YOU JUST DID AN INCREDIBLE THING RIGHT THERE. YOU RODE A HORSE WITH SO MUCH SKILL, AND SO MUCH SPEED AND YOUR SO MELLOW AND COOL ABOUT IT. IT'S, I BEEN DOING IT FOR 14 YEARS NOW AND LAST YEAR WAS MY FIRST TIME EVER WINNING THE RACE. AND I ONLY WON ONE RACE LAST YEAR. HOW DOES IT FEEL TO WIN? IT FEELS REALLY GOOD.

THE SHANK MAN HOLDS ONTO THE ROPE AND CONTROLS THE HORSE

KINDA SETS THE HORSE UP FOR THE MUGGER TO GO IN GRAB A HOLD OF THE HORSE BY THE HEAD AND HE MAKES HIM STAND STILL AND THE RIDER'S GOTTA BE RIGHT IN THERE AS SOON AS THEY GRAB THE HORSE TO GET THE SADDLE ON AND TO GET IN.

I NOTICE THE UM, I NOTICE THEY GOT A LITTLE BIG ON THE DOWN LOW THERE. ON THE HANG LOW.

(LAUGHS) IS THAT PART OF THE DEAL THAT MAKES THEM SO ANGRY. CAUSE NORMALLY THEY CAN CUT THOSE OFF RIGHT? WELL THAT'D MAKE EM A STEER AND THEN YEAH THEY WOULDN'T BE NEARLY AS AGGRESSIVE. NOW UH, THE IDIOTIC QUESTIONS WILL CONTINUE NOW AND I'LL ASK YOU IS THERE ANY DANGER OF GETTING HIT IN THE HEAD BY THAT GIANT NUTE SAC. OH, GETTING HIT IN THE HEAD WITH THAT. (LAUGHS) NO, I MEAN I'VE SEEN IT HAPPEN A FEW TIMES. (ART LAUGHING) I GUESS THEY PROBABLY WOULDN'T WAY THAT MUCH AND THEY'RE, NOT THAT HARD I GUESS.
