Racer changes bicycles without slowing down
In this clip, two members of a pit crew work with a racer to get him on a new bike without hurting his time. The whole swap takes place in the first couple seconds of the video and it’s almost impossible to see what’s happening without pausing it repeatedly to wrap your mind around it….
Here’s a GIF of this feat, in case you want to watch it over and over again.

At about :06 I realized they’d made the switch and I totally missed it.
I’ve watched it five times and I still don’t really understand… like… how…? I don’t… Just wow.
