Red Bull Deutschland Shorts

This video has been trending in Switzerland

The video plunges us into the high-voltage atmosphere of Red Bull Sattelfest, a competition as wacky as it is spectacular, held in Germany. From the very first shots we see the crowd packed around a course bristling with obstacles, jumps and tight bends. The entrants don’t just turn up with their bikes: they rely on ever more extravagant costumes to entertain the audience and stand out from the pack. The moment the start signal sounds, pounding music and spectators’ shouts merge into a full-on visual and sonic festival.

The thread running through the video is a costume that steals the show: a giant toilet outfit, complete with seat, toilet paper and even a flush handle. Wedged inside this decidedly unaerodynamic rig, the rider instantly draws laughter and cheers. A voice-over explains that speed isn’t the only objective: creativity, showmanship and the ability to finish the course upright count just as much in the final ranking.

Heat after heat we watch the “toilet rider” tackle steep rollers, slippery wooden catwalks and a kicker that launches competitors skyward. The costume, already cumbersome, becomes a real handicap when it’s time to land cleanly. Slow-motion replays highlight the cyclist’s wobbliness: the lid flips up, the toilet paper unspools, and the judges hold their breath before applauding the ensuing feat—or crash.

The video deftly alternates quick interviews with action shots. Our protagonist explains that he wanted to “take the concept all the way” to make people laugh and prove you can keep the Red Bull spirit—fun and pushing your limits—even in an absurd costume. Backstage, his friends admit they spent entire evenings sawing, gluing and painting to make sure the porcelain bowl could survive the impacts. We learn the jury also awards points for ingenuity, and the host reminds viewers that a former winner triumphed dressed as a giant sausage.

The pièce de résistance comes in the final run: the toilet cyclist manages to stay upright all the way to the last corner, where a tight bend sends the bowl skidding into the protective straw bales. The crowd erupts, the judges raise their scorecards, and although the clock isn’t the day’s fastest, the performance earns one of the highest creativity marks. Closing shots show the awards ceremony—trophies, showers of energy drink and a flurry of selfies.

In short, the video showcases the playful, community-minded spirit of Red Bull Sattelfest. Beyond being a simple mountain-bike race, the event celebrates imagination, self-mockery and the sheer pleasure of riding together. The toilet costume—a proudly assumed “Griff ins Klo” (“dive into the loo”)—perfectly embodies this philosophy: turn a crazy idea into an unforgettable moment, even if you end up on your backside… or in the bowl!
