A wholesome video gives you a window into the mind of a five-year-old boy as he takes on downhill mountain biking for the first time. Ahead of the ride, the boy’s parents mic’d him up to record everything he said along the way. The young mountain biker’s exclamations as he does a truly great job navigating the terrain and some small obstacles are both adorable and relatable.
“Three minutes of a 5 year old’s thought process as he navigates his first downhill mountain biking experience!” wrote Robert and Samantha, the parents behind the family-adventure influencer account @chasing.sage. The family was mountain biking at SilverStar Bike Park in British Columbia, Canada.

Some of my favorite things the young boy says include:
“It’s just a little hill.”
“Oh, Dad, look! A roof!”
“Ah, yes! Mud puddle”
“Ooh, look at these pretty flowers!”
“They take a lot of care of this forest.”
“Ooh, a little berm!”
“This is funner than I thought.”
The online community had a great time listening in on this mountain-biking session, saying things like: “That’s the best 3 minutes I have watched in [a long] time!” and “This is so wholesome.”
