Four-time Tour de France winner Chris Froome has been branded a "legend" on social media for recreating a viral video.<\/p>\n
In the ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) clip – a type of video often involving the whispering of words that produces a relaxing sensation across the scalp or spine for the viewer – a glamorous woman can be seen tapping parts of a car, while whispering the name of the luxury car brand, Bentley. And Froome decided to share his own hilarious take with his Factor bike.<\/p>\n
Froome's video cuts between the pair's clips, and as the Bentley woman taps her hub caps, Froome does the same to his forks. And sports' fans have branded the cycling icon a "legend" for the hilarious video.<\/p>\n

"One thing I never expected to see on the internet: Chris Froome ASMR," one fan joked. While a second shared: "I have been laughing non stop since I spotted it on Insta 24 minutes ago this is amazing!"<\/p>\n
"Chris Froome is a certified Twitter legend," a third said. And another added: "This video is incredibly weird but also pretty amusing. Quite easy to forget that this guy has won 7 Grand Tours when he's out there mocking influencers (who deserve to be mocked, of course) like this…"<\/p>\n

Froome, who last pulled on the famous yellow jersey in 2017, was a notable omission from the start list this year in the Basque Country. The four-time winner has been on a long road to recovery following a terrifying crash in 2019 that left him in intensive car.<\/p>\n
Now one of the oldest riders in the peloton, Froome is looking to roll back the years one last time before he hangs up his cleats.<\/p>\n
