I assume "Brian Bleech" on the page there should actually be "Ryan Leech"

Brian Bleech is a famous welsh rider known for his bad posture by danny and other uk riders.

Ryan Leech is yet another well know trials no hoppy manifesting rider. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.232.233.101 (talk) 21:42, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Very strange, that first sentence! Like the single thing, after being a stunt rider (freestyle, surely?), that is most important to know, is that he released a video in April 2009? Ha? Just sounds like a plug for the video to me. Also, I don't hardly know anything about the guy, but I know there have been some videos of his floating around for a while - this one was uploaded to YouTube in 2006: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYIKfEU8yl8. So this bit of info is irrelevant other than maybe to say a bit later that this video attracted attention in early 2009. Markowe (talk) 08:51, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The video "April 2009" was his media break through. > 28.000.000 views on YoutTube. Before that video he didn't appear anywhere noteworthy. 78.53.215.4 (talk) 16:13, 13 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Imaginate

Someone should add a sentence about this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sv3xVOs7_No seems to be a significant video release of note — Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.234.135.55 (talk) 03:00, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Jezabels

One of his videos, that hasn't been mentioned yet, must feature "A Little Piece" by The Jezabels in the background. It made them quite famous when they started their career. Jezabeliberté (talk) 14:34, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation

I am going to remove the "pronunciation needed" tag. It is likely to be the obvious (məˈkaskl). I'm not going to actively add my guesswork to the article, but equally, there is no need for it to ask "pronunciation?" when the answer is unlikely to be surprising. Given that, as it says at Pronunciation_of_English_⟨a⟩, "In Scottish and Ulster English the great majority of speakers have no distinction between TRAP and PALM (the Sam–psalm merger)", the only ambiguity that might otherwise reasonably plausibly exist (namely, whether the <a> is pronounced as /æ/ or /ɑː/) goes away. --Money money tickle parsnip (talk) 14:13, 12 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
