One-Legged BMXer Julián Molina Shreds Harder Than You
“Strength doesn’t come from the body, it comes from the mind’s will.”
Red Bull traveled down to Colombia to help share the inspirational story of a young, one-legged BMX rider named Julián Molina.
“After a collision with one of the local buses when he was younger, Julian Molina was left with a completely destroyed foot, which later became infected with gangrene, traumatically resulting in the amputation of his entire leg. Most would quit here, but not Julian.”
In this short documentary, Julián talks about his love for BMX as he takes the Red Bull crew to some of his favorite “spots.” His technique is evident, delivering more pop off his bike than many able-bodied pros are capable of doing, so much so that he traveled to a dirt park near the city of Medellin to show off his impressive backflip. Between the love and support of his family, and endless determination, Molina is a tribute that anything really is possible.
