Title: MaCi's Journey - A tribute to MaCi
Post by: Cooper on July 23, 2024, 06:14:54 PM

MaCi's Journey
A tribute to MaCi

Hello. Here I present the video that we dedicated to the greatest person who passed through this community. It's a tragedy that he had to go, but I'm glad we had someone like him here and share our passions for stunting and music. I feel more than honored to be the editor of the tribute I believe he deserves (at least in a metal way). I used two songs from his project (Bergman) from the EP he released in 2014 (For Those Not Braindead). While doing this, I realized what an amazing musician he was...his songs are incredible and it's awesome to have them in a stunting video. Thanks to Sheikah for the organization, puzzle for extracting the tracks from his copy, Ltab for the words in the video, and anyone who supported and helped in any way.

MaCi's first credits stunt (or blooper) is a replay he sent me for my latest solo but I didn't use (its shown as it is, it starts cutted), and the second stunt is the raw clip from SFH's latest video. Oh and ARS is opener hehe

Thanks a ton for editing this, Cooper, it came out awesome. Also a huge thanks to everyone who landed something. I feel this would be a vid he would have loved. Live reactions are encouraged  :euro:

A beautiful collection of stunts put together nicely with an epic soundtrack from the man himself. This video is heavy.

Couple extra words I forgot to say at the end of the video;

While trying MaCi's spots, and I think you guys can agree, it really put into perspective how technically demanding his spots were.

I'm afraid I must admit, I've not listened to any Bergman songs before now... but jeez the dude could shred. The heavy Metallica influence could be heard in the main song, and Alex nailed it. Going to enjoy listening to the rest of his discography for sure.

It was such a treat seeing him ride around the airport, as you could tell from my reaction. That's a true stunter right there. Being able to finish this video with a smile. Another thanks to Cooper for including it.




Skal, Alex.

Superb edit Cooper. And thanks sheikah for pulling it together.

I'd only chatted with Maci once or twice, since we were kinda active in seperate eras. But from those brief interactions he was unbelievable friendly and supportive, and his passion for stunting was apparent as well. I think he'd have loved this video.

And yeah, I already thought highly of his stunting before trying these spots. But to actually give them a go - he was way ahead of his time.

That was a beautiful video, I'm glad I was a part of that. Thanks for organizing and editing it Sheikah and Cooper !

I may not have known MaCi personally but I always knew he was an amazing stunter and trying his spots made it even more clear  ;D

So I only just found out that Alex had passed, so I'm still in a state of shock to be honest

He was such a fun dude and his positive attitude was contagious. We spent so much time talking during COVID, he really helped me though them times. When he told me he was sick and in and out of hospital, I felt completely helpless being thousands of miles away. I know he had great friends and family to support him though. theOnlyOne, you're a true friend, dude.

He loved and laboured over the database, he really is the reason it exists as it does, so I'm proud to have something I can continue on with that I know he'd be proud of too.

He really loved this community and it's only fitting that a great video was made in his memory. I loved that you used his music, he was so talented.
 
Please everyone, continue to keep his positive attitude and loving nature with you always.

Watching this is like another best of MaCi and you can see how versitale stunter he was.
Big airs, technical grinds, car stunts etc. Some of the stunts were so hard we didn't have time to re-land them, which is good in a sense he landed some of the best stunts around then.

Using MaCi's own music was a beatiful touch as well. Tunes were amazing! ;D

Oh and ARS is opener hehe

I guess I'm the opener stunt as well.

Great tribute video for an amazing person. MaCi we miss you! <3 :wub:

Skal!

That was a lovely video, great work on the edit Cooper and to everyone in recreating that selection of fantastic and wonderfully-varied MaCi stunts, and set so well to his own music. Seeing his airport stunt towards the end was a very nice touch too - a sweet conclusion alongside his closing one and those beautiful words from Ltab.
Cheers to Sheikah, Cooper, all involved, and to MaCi too  :wub:

A beautiful tribute befitting of the man and the influence he has exerted and indelibly impressed upon us as a community simply by embodying his authentic [wonderful and generous] self in his interactions and efforts made in service of this community.

I really thought that songs were by Metallica or something, damn. He was the GOAT even in music.
Great job Cooper, Sheikah and everyone involved. R.I.P MaCi.

Great video, MaCi was an incredible stunter, Vernissage is one of my favourite videos of all time, and this sits alongside it as a lovely tribute to a brilliant guy. Props for managing to land some of his hardest spots too, there's some tough bastards in there for sure. MaCi's outro stunt was genuinely dope as well, what a combo! Thanks to everyone for putting this together, respect.

Firstly, it took me five minutes to realize that this was MaCi's own song, I truly thought it was an (for me) unknown b-side of a Metallica album and that his songs were coming up next. Wow. I'm no musician but to me this was seriously impressive.

Secondly, this video was amazing and a worthy tribute to this great guy. Thank you to everyone who contributed. Would have loved to participate but I tried stunting for a while and realized I don't really have the skills or time anymore.

Lastly, MaCi my friend, you will not be forgotten and I cherish the moments we have had together even though it must be 10 years since the last time we chatted. I hope that there is an afterlife where we can meet and catch up. I mean that sincerely.

One of the greatest projects in gtastunting history, everyone should feel proud who participated. It was a touching video for sure, I never realized Maci landed so many stunts, and so many great ones. I'm sure if he could see this video, he would be really happy about it so props to you guys who made it possible. The airport stunt by him was especially heartwarming.
Rest in piece my friend!

MaCi was not only an exceptional stunter but also an extraordinary human being. I want to highlight his kindness, his humor, and the patience he brought to everyone :wub:

Download link added, better late than never :P If someone wants to make a better compression, go ahead, I'm too lazy to figure that out

Huge thanks for the feedback everyone ♥

Long live MaCi ;D
