[EtalesVlog]

Hello! Does anyone know who is the first motovlogger ever and in which country??

 

[scooterwuf]

That's a very good question. I think @TeapotOne is considered one of the top or most traveled one in the world.

Some (including Wikipedia in the US) attribute M13 with posting motovlogs on YouTube as far back as 2006.

I have to wonder though, since YouTube was 2005 does that mean any motorcycle documentary prior to that is out of consideration? After all a motovlog is merely stories on camera.

Think about the films like "On any Sunday"...https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_Any_Sunday

Do mean the first to ever strap a camera to themselves/their bike or the first one on youtube?

If its the first one to ever strap a camera to themselves/their bike and record a few words that is most likely lost to the passages of time. Strapping a camera to a motorcycle probably came before a horn.

I've been trying every search peramiter for the past hour to find the first published motorcycle video on Youtube, but their search sucks and contantly directs you to what they want you to watch. Gonna keep trying different search terms though because now I'm super curious.

@LoneWolfer look up John Morgan Harley from the 1920s on YouTube. Not sure if they would have been able to strap a film camera to a bike and crank but the 57 seconds of footage looked just as random motorcycle stuff as I sometimes shoot.

Also, @LoneWolfer loneI sent you a link through Facebook Messenger. I think we need to bring back that voice and music to our vlogs.

I find it interesting that the wiki page for motovlogging states M13 having become active in 2006 but his youtube channel stats indicate him joining Feb. 13th, 2007. *whispers* conspiracy much? His first video is uploaded Feb. 18, 2007 and the first one on the bike looks to be Feb. 19, 2007.

Svengali was one of the first (mostly) UK motovloggers, his videos introduced me to the concept and also encouraged me to try dirt bikes. His first video on his channel currently has a time stamp of May 2007, although I think he may have posted videos before then and removed them.
His story is pretty tragic though and unfortunately he died. His memory lives on though and @Phil480 has helped organise memorial rides for him.

From Wikipedia.

It is uncertain when the first motovlog was created, but one of the earliest motovlog channels on YouTube is M13, which became active in 2006.[2]
