Surely you’ve come across numerous weird things on the internet.
Who hasn’t? But the visual representation of a “boycycle” who wanders through life seeking his purpose then ends up falling in love with an equally strange being is not something you see very often. It’s not even something most people would ever think of.
A “boycycle” is, as you might have already assumed, half boy and half bicycle.
The rest you’ll figure out as you watch the video. We bring to you the modern fairytale.
Salvatore Ganacci is also known as Steven Seagal, Lorenzo Lamas and Bobby Sixkiller. Having garnered millions of streams, the Bosnian-born Swedish DJ/producer Ganacci has caught a lot of attention thanks to his originality.
He now collaborates with OWSLA, an American record label and creative collective.
It was founded by Skrillex, Tim Smith, Kathryn Frazier and Clayton Blaha in 2011. Salvatore rose to prominence with a record-breaking China tour of 22 shows in 22 days.
The 2019 “Horse” video also helped a lot, attracting thousands of new subscribers.
Today, 104,000 YouTube users are subscribed to his channel, and 415,000 people follow Sixkiller on Instagram. This talented man, who has a very strong stage personality, is also a co-founder of the THOR radio show on Sveriges Radio.
Without a doubt, the story of “Boycycle” does require an open-minded way of thinking.
“The Little Mermaid” was a great commercial success but if you think it through, it’s hard to imagine the love between a mermaid and a man. It wouldn’t be practical or common or easy. That’s why people love fairytales, everything is possible. Salvatore Ganacci, the star of this video, probably felt the need to tell the same old happy-ending fantasy placing it in more modern circumstances. As the video goes on, you’ll see an abandoned boy whose upper body is just like everyone else’s—except that he has no legs.
His back is a bike, and he’s got wheels.
An old man finds a boycycle, adopts him and raises him as a true father would. We love how the story kept the bond between a regular person we can all identify with and the new hero who has yet to find his place in the world.
Of course, there must always be trouble in paradise.
Despite having the love of his father, the boycycle grows up and understands he’s not like the rest of the young men. He sees people with legs everywhere and wants some answers.
The need to fit in is something we can all understand perfectly well.
After an altercation with his “dad,” the boycycle breaks everything in the house only to find a photo of a mermaid.
That’s when he realizes that he’s not the only strange creature in the world and sets off on a journey to find that girl.
The only thing he’s got is that photo he brought with him.
Before leaving, the boycycle cleans up the home and says goodbye to his father with the words: “I’m a mancycle.”
The boy is all grown up, and he’s determined to find happiness.
Doesn’t it sound familiar? The good news is that the boycycle finds love in the end.
No matter how unusual you are, there is always someone who’s a perfect fit for you.
We could go on and on about the world and the society and how unfair life sometimes is—but the video explains it all well enough.
The truth behind everything we live from day to day is that it’s up to you.
You choose to be happy, and we strongly believe that’s the basic message of the video. It was uploaded in early 2020, and four million YouTube viewers have had the opportunity to maybe interpret the point differently. That’s the beauty of art, and we are thankful to Ganacci for showing us the beauty of odd through his creating.
