Of All People

About

As they did with another music video from the Your Favorite Toy album, ‘Window’, Foo Fighters elected not to appear themselves in the video for ‘Of All People’. Instead, they decided to essentially lend their song to be the soundtrack for a video created by an extreme sports group based in Switzerland.

Buldoz Project Crew, or BPC for short, describe themselves as a “snowless skiing” group who perform stunts and tricks skiing on a multitude of surfaces other than the traditional snow or ice, creating videos to display their skills online.

Directed by Alex Acy and jointly produced by Omar Films and Object & Animal this video follows the group (Flaco, Blasco, Paterno Castello, Mael Bovey, Jordy, Andrea de Angelis and Keti Vasadze) as they “ski” on the streets of Tbilisi, Georgia. Early in the video one of the skiers is seen to receive a nasty broken finger and further shots are a mixture of success and failure in their stunt attempts.

In an interview discussing the unusual choice for the music video Dave Grohl explained - “Just when I thought I’d seen it all, I discovered BPC and snowless skiing. It’s either the gnarliest extreme sport I’ve ever seen, the most fun anyone can have before a guaranteed trip to the hospital, or both. It’s an honor to be the soundtrack to this madness.”
