Crusty Demons of Dirt
In 1994 filmmakers Jon Freeman and Dana Nicholson had been accumulating footage to showcase a behind the scenes expose of the lifestyle of an American pro motocross rider in action, 145ft plus jumps, 45ft high in the air soaring over sand dunes, mountains, houses, buses and anything else secure and steep enough to hold the weight of bike and rider. The end result was Fleshwound Films and the first video Crusty Demons of Dirt. The launch of this video was to change the face of motocross and create Freestyle Motocross (FMX). For over a decade, they took their dirtbikes around the world in search of unique locations and ultimately experienced the most ridiculous adventures. Exotic locations in nineteen countries : the ruins of Machu Picchu, packed arenas in Australia, the mysterious Easter Island, wild deserts in Africa no matter where we go, nothing is ever left the same.

The Homegrown Collection
Straight from the twisted mind of Michael Moody, 'The Homegrown Collection' takes you deep into the underground stunt scene and redefines our perception of what the human body can handle. Watch the footage as people get broken, battered and destroyed in some of the most freakish acts caught on home video tape; then watch them do it again. The footage included in this electrifying DVD will leave you on the edge of your seat, filled with shock, gasping for breath as you wait to see the next bizarre clip of video. Witness insane stunts such as Dan G using a power drill to impale a screw into his arm, Trailer Park Mafia's Buckwild getting bit in the nose by a piranha and hilarious pranks like tricking somebody into eating a brownie (which really is a piece of microwaved dog poop). To them Homegrown isn't just a hobby, it's a way of life. And lucky for us they caught it all on tape.
