The riders should be spending a few years chewing coca leaves with the locals before riding at those altitudes.

In the very first video, why didn't they just give him a couple of Red Bulls, a slap on the back and a hearty "Cheerio!"?

Isn't that what energy drinks are for?

I once heard an E.R. nurse refer to it as "crack in a can".
