Tom Meents showed the world what he was capable of doing things that were deemed impossible but proven not. Tom is a symbol of Monster Jam and the motorsport community. He and Dennis are the main reasons why I want to be a real Monster Jam driver someday. Let us all embrace his legacy and beyond the new generation of drivers who look up to him. Tom Meents, a legend. ❤
Tom Meents proved himself that everyone can become an unstoppable driver, especially in the early days of Monster Jam. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to see him 3 years in a row. I saw old videos of Tom’s runs in the early 2000s and he proved the world that it’s not impossible to drive a monster truck to its maximum, and cause destruction to the fans. We all will miss you Tom and thanks for 21 years of Maximum Destruction when he drove Maxd!
Although i never got to meet Tom in person nor go to a monster jam show in person, i still adore and will always be a big fan of Tom and Max-D's years of destruction, this video is the perfect tribute for the 14 time world finals champion himself. We will all miss you Tom!
Amazing tribute to the greatest to ever step into a monster truck. I hope Tom has a happy and healthy retirement. He'll be sorely missed on the track, but his impact on the sport will be felt for as long as Monster Jam exists.
I first saw Tom Meents perform in person at WF3. Fast forward to February 2024 and I see him perform at Indy Monster Jam Saturday with that same WF3 t-shirt. About 19 hours after the end of that show, a friend tells me that Tom was badly hurt and done driving for good. At that moment, the significance of that Indy show went way up and I realized how lucky I was. God speed and thanks for everything Tom Meents
@l4640 What’d you call me!? You don’t frickin’ know what I went through! You heard nothing but truth, dang it! Where did I lie!? Oh right, *NOWHERE!* I would *never* call you that for any reason, so you have no reason to do the same. Take that statement back
Thank you for everything you’ve done to make Monster Jam what it is today. Thank you for thrilling fans all over the world with your inspiring racing, skills, and freestyle performances. It’s a real shame your driving career ended the way it did, but it’s been a pleasure watching you perform at every event for over 30 years. 14 Monster Jam world championships and over 20 years of Maximum Destruction! Thank you Tom Meents and enjoy your retirement!
Watching this man win 9/14 titles was the greatest thing I’ve seen. Pure dominance and owning his competition for 21 years in Mj with Maxd. His longevity in the sport won’t ever be topped. Enjoy retirement Tom!

Tom, thank you very much for your contributions to this great sport! My twins are true fans and have watched Max-D at countless shows and videos and met you at many pit parties.
