Closer to the Edge is now on course to becoming one of the most successful European sports films in history.

TT3D sold more than 100,000 copies in just 10 days of being on sale, building on 34,000 sales in its first 48 hours.

Minister John Shimmin said he was thrilled that the Manx film is continuing to reach audiences across the world and recruiting a legion of TT fans.

The documentary remained in the official UK top 40 DVD chart for a second consecutive week.
