TOP FUEL DRAG RACING...HE WASN'T READY!!! First Time Reaction...

My Brother 1st Time. I couldn't wait for his reaction. To FUNNY

[AnotherRumor]

the feeling of a top fuel going past you is indescribable, everyone should experience it atleast once in their lives

I remember my first time at the drag races. I was about 10 years old, I'm almost 60 now. My cheap ass Dad snuck me in through the back, into the pit yard. I actually got to meet Don Prudhomme. Well, actually he was asleep in a fold out chair, but I recognized him. No, I didn't disturb him, either. But hey, I give my Dad credit looking back on it now. I know I had a good time, lol!

No acting. No script. No "emotional" music. Just genuine human experience.
THIS is what Youtube was made for! Thank you for uploading this! 👏👏

Brings tears to my eyes, a man of his age still finding new things to excite and motivate. God Bless you, young man!

I’m 98% deaf with hearing devices and certain things immediately bring tears to my eyes; remembering what it was like to really hear them. I can feel their sound go through my body.
1. P-51 Mustangs and Military Jet Aircraft @ High Speed, low altitude passes.
2. Ocean Waves crashing on the beach or rocks.
3. Top Fuel Drags!

Thanks for posting.

"He thought he heard Godzilla", is pretty much 100% spot on if you had no idea what was coming and you're grooving through the parking lot. The Wall Of Sound would still be felt in the body....Great video.

That initial fear reaction was priceless 🤣 and then overcoming that to realize how much fun it was. Pure gold.

[Lorddurango]

Honestly this is a perfect YouTube video. I remember when they were pretty much all like this, very small amount of editing. Just capturing humans being humans in a very raw form. You don't need uplifting music and slow motion to know this guy was having the best day of his life. There are still really great YouTube videos being made, but I miss when they were all like this.

Words can not describe the sound, the ground shaking under your feet, and percussion that hits you when they pass by. Everyone should experience it once in there life. It is AWESOME

[georgejurak]

Even with ear plugs, I thought my teeth were going to vibrate out. I have NEVER HEARD ANYTHING AS LOUD AS TOP FUEL DRAGSTERS IN PERSON. It is scary and exciting at the same time.

[ELJefeReviews]

I was able to experience Top Fuel a few years ago. I will never forget that day. The pits, the launch, the fly-bys. Easily a top 5 memory for me.

I don't know how many times I've watched this now, but it just makes me happy every time. Your brother's heartfelt, uninhibited reactions are a joy to see, and your simple, clean storytelling convey his experience perfectly. Thanks for sharing this!

I love this video. When I'm depressed, I put it on. No one has any concept of how loud these things are until your actually there.

[davidcowee]

Until you've stood trackside and in the pits experiencing those monsters, you have no idea how intense it is. There is quite simply no other feeling like it, chest pounding, ground shaking, ear splitting, mind numbing shock wave. Utterly brilliant 👌👌👌🤯🤯❤. D

That "Best day of my life" at the end actually brought a tear to my eye. So glad this guy got to EXPERIENCE (because that's what it is) this in his life. You just can't adequately describe what the experience is like to people. Yeah, it's loud but that's only part of it. You can really FEEL the concussions from the engines as they rip on by. And if you're lucky enough to have pit passes* when they're tuning those things you'll REALLY get to feel the potato sack being slammed into your chest when they blip the throttle. Oh, and you'll find little pieces of rubber stuck to your face when you look in the mirror later on.

* I HIGHLY recommend ear and eye protection. Ears for the noise and eye protection for the nitro-methane fumes which will make your eyes water, big time.

Much respect love this!! Glad he got to experience this race. Something most people never experience!! Have a great life guys god bless

1:00 NOW he's like, "Strap me on in the driver's seat next" 🤔🤷‍♂👍🤣😁

[jamieostrowski]

I was into musclecars when I was a teenager and went to the top fuel races. It was unreal. I remember walking up, still behind the bleachers section and the cars took off and I felt it pounding my chest. Everyone should experience that once, even if you're not into cars, it's other-worldly.

[ZippyThePinhead]

His reaction to the whole experience is priceless. Thank you for sharing this. 😁👍

[sheldon_neville_fishing]

Your dads reaction was priceless, thought he was gonna heart attack there on the first pass. Thats awesome though that he loves it. Such a wholesome moment
