For starters, he's currently sponsored by quite a number of top notch brands in the powersports, and more specifically, motocross scene, such as Rockstar, AGL, Ignite, O'Neal, and Husqvarna.

This video shows Dean Wilson dressed up as an eighty year old grandpa named 'Grandpa Earl,' who takes his grandson to the raceway to prank other motocross racers. Done up in some pretty amazing makeup, similar to the stuff they use on actors to make them look several years older, Dean Wilson was slowly transformed into Grandpa Earl. Upon arriving to the raceway, Granpa Earl, sticking out like a sore thumb, walks around with Colton Hannay posing as his grandson in tow, admiring the bikes and the skills of the various riders present.

Moments later, he's seen shredding the track and landing huge jumps much to the amazement of the bystanders and fellow racers on the track. As he hops aboard his Husqvarna race bike, he's met with mixed reactions from people trying to stop him, to folks applauding simply how rad of a grandpa he is. Whether or not he reveals himself to the other riders isn't shown in the video. Nonetheless, I'm sure it made for a really interesting day at the race track.
