Real World Guitar Hero Riding A Bicycle

by Scott Beale on November 19, 2008 · 6 comments

Kevin of Ft. Wayne recreated a level of Guitar Hero riding his bicycle through the neighborhood. The song is “Prisoner of Society” by The Living End with the difficulty level set to “hard”. Of course it’s possible that this is a viral video produced to promote Guitar Hero, but nonetheless it’s very creative.

UPDATE: GameCyte has confirmed that this is in fact a viral video created by the ad agency Droga5 to promote Guitar Hero World Tour.

isn't “Real World Guitar Hero” an oxymoron? after i turned the sound way down, the only thing missing was his helmet. kudos on the light.

I can confirm that it is a seeded viral video. And I don't give a damn. Guitar Hero kills that other game I won't mention. GH 4 Life!

In the real world, I have ridden a Schwinn ten-speed bicycle twenty-five THOUSAND miles while playing a Fender Stratocaster guitar since the early 1980s. Check out my web site for recent content including music videos. Red Baron song music video was just posted to YouTube iDec.2 2008.
