TT3D: Closer to the Edge Page #2
you know, I'll have 15 wins, I probably
would have laughed at them
and felI off the wall,
but here I am with 15 wins.
But I still get that,
you know jitters now.
You know, TT's coming. TT's coming.
Building up. Building up.
I get apprehensive, nervous.
Months before the TT you know.
And when I think about it, it makes
me skip a heartbeat, really.
I have to have the house immaculate,
and the garage has to be immaculate.
Everything's got to have its place.
I'll mow the lawn, make sure
that's all right. Clean the cars.
So, just in case anything does happen,
then everything's ready.
I definitely think about it.
It's got to cross your mind.
It has to cross your mind,
cos it's there, all the time.
It's a reality that
you might not come back.
John McGuinness 17.43, 127,
under the lap
record from a standing start!
For two
incredible weeks each summer;
generations of men and women
have made the pilgrimage
to the lsle of Man to pit
themselves against the track,
which has achieved international status
and become synonymous
with speed and glory
At a time when the maximum
permitted speed on English roads
was just 20 miles per hour
and racing strictly prohibited,
a band of enthusiasts
and themselves to the limits
of speed and endurance
gathered on the Isle of Man,
and in 1907 the Tourist Trophy was born.
You see? Look at the suspension.
You see?
And then we'll put it the other way.
Watch that.
Keep watching.
It'll do something.
See? Look at that. Hey?
Me and Guy have got
the typical father-son relationship.
- Guy knows best, and I knows best.
- Yeah.
I'll put a brew on.
See, a Steadicam That's what it is.
Must have shockers in it or something.
You what?
Say, when you was
holding that thing you can jar
but that takes all the jar
out of the camera, doesn't it?
Are they dear?
I bet it's dear that, innit.
Go on, how much is that arm there then?
Fourteen hundred?
F*** off.
Fourteen grand?
Fourteen grand.
F***ing hell.
F***, have you seen that?
Fourteen grand.

Commando production bike.
I thought,
I'm gonna be a TT superstar here.
So I set off from...
How old was you?
I was...
How old was I?
Forty seven. What's that, then?
- I don't know. '74... '47. By heck.
- Anyway...
Come into Glen Helen,
up Craig Willie's hill,
cranked it in...
Down, down, down,
no further to go, bang.
Straight over the bank.
The bike finished up in three bits.
And I broke my back.
And I was back at the TT again
the following year.
Probably North West, 2008.
Come off the Black Hill, lost the front,
