One Million Youtube views
I just passed one million youtube views.
 Never had the benefit of having a single video "featured" on youtube; you become intelligible for that if *any* of your videos have copyrighted music on them, so I had to earn each and every view the old fashioned way!  I want to thank the uni-community for watching and also the thousands of non-riders, many of whom have been inspired to take up this most awesome sport!

You also kind of bring me to this sport. You weren't the first person who I saw in an unicycling video, but you helped me to make the move and buy an unicycle
 .Btw. When you search for mountain unicycling on Youtube, most of hte results are your videos. Congrats for your milion views. Next base is one million subscribers

Congratulations!!!
Congratulations Unigeezer, you're a millionaire!
+1 For the inspiration!!! About a year ago, when I was just got into unicycling, and even before getting exposed to this amazing community, I used to watch unicycle vids on youtube. One of my first search results was your "36er Mounting Tutorial" - It was amazing... so I start reading about you, and following your amazing story. I wish that I'll have half of your riding skills when I'm 55 Keep riding and posting your great vids and pics. UVcycle

Alright, way to go, Terry! About 200,000 of those views are mine...
You've been one of the most influential riders on me. Every time I watch one of your videos, it makes me instantly want to go for a ride... Even in sub-zero Wisconsin weather. Then I realize that I'm not fortunate enough to live in California, at which point I sadly retreat to my house and imagine riding the Santa Ana River Trail

Congratulations! You have certainly earned it. I hope they generate some work for you.
Among other forms of inspiration, for me, Terry's riding is a reminder to me (at 50 years of age), of NO EXCUSES! I'm a fan. Quote:

Congratulations, UniGeezer!
Congratulations, UniGeezer!
I've probably watched all of your videos, and I've watched the ascent of Fargo St. about 200 times. Very inspirational! 36er mounting tutorials were very helpful also. Jrapp |

I've watched quite a few of Terry's videos, always fun, plenty of good action and commentary, hope to meet the man in person at the next Cali Munifest.
Terry, are you going to make the drive?

Thanks for the comments guys! As for how many views are mine, lol, not many. Most of my viewing is done during editing and before uploading, so I can see what changes I might want to make.
Once uploaded, I usually will watch it to see if I want to add any annotations, or to reply to any comments. Other than that, I usually don't watch them online more than a few times, mostly because being my own worst critic, I see so many things I would have done differently or tried to do better. That's is the primary reason that motivates me to keep making videos; I say to myself that the next one will be better, and that one day I just might "get it right"!
