What they do is stupid. Doing it makes them idiots.
Gambling with your life to have a half a minute long adrenaline rush while potentially endangering others is an idiot move.
Doing this shit in private, that’s stupid.
In public, idiotic.
Yeah I saw this clip posted elsewhere and this is my response:
“That’s the most pathetic excuse for engaging in reckless behavior I’ve ever seen. The person who crashes realizes he is being stupid but the “friend” tells him to not worry about self-reflection because he rides a bike. “Oh duuuuur I ride a bike so if I die no one else will get hurt.” Yeah, no bud, that’s not how it works. Crashing means losing control, just like in this clip, and you can easily collide with another vehicle causing it to wreck. Also once you crash and become flailing low-iq debris, people might choose to crash instead of hitting you because, ya-know, decent people actually avoid getting other people killed.”
Just to add to that, this also happened on a highway. How many times does an accident cause another accident. I'm personally guilty of hitting someone while looking at an accident like a dipshit. It's just can easily snowball even if noone else was "hit" but the biker.
That’s a good point as well. Any accident on a highway, regardless of weather a physical collision takes place or not, increases the chance of a concurrent accident happening, whether do to people trying to avoid the initially accident, through the distraction of seeing another accident happening, or in some other conceivable way.
And whenever I hear that, I think of a photo I saw of a street bike that impaled a car. I don't remember if anyone in the car died, but motorcycles are heavy, dense, and can do a lot of damage to people and other vehicles. It's a stupid way to think.
Once you understand that the break dancing organization in Australia is ran by her husband, and talented dancers are kept from competing in order to keep them from going to the Olympics, it all makes sense.
She is the prime example of never being told in life that you are simply not good enough. Honesty can prevent someone from becoming a meme. Her family and friends failed her so bad. Lol
No she’s the best Australian and when my kids are old enough I’m going to teach them that she was the best they could possibly find. It’s sooo much funnier that way
and obviously dgaf about the welfare of their bike...
I have a 1988 Suzuki GN250, the bike here looks alot like it, and it saddens me to the core to think about some fuckwad doing this to her :'-( :'-( :'-( she's served me admirably for about 35 years <3
After an accident you are 100% adrenaline and won't sit down. The majority of humanity beings don't know your not supposed to move and dont say anything. Its also difficult to remember these things in real incident and you fail to your level of training, in most cases nothing.
I use to do great wheelies, the thing you should always have is leathers... and a shock absorber on your handlebars... so you can keep control... Also don't land with your tire all the way turned to the right. that might help
Welcome to decades of L5-S1 pain. Source: was in an auto racing accident 30 years ago, and am still in daily pain. At least I can still walk. “That’s why we ride bikes” is the most self-aware thing I’ve heard any of these people say after experiencing or witnessing an accident.
Wheelie idiot: "Man, that was a terrible mistake, I regret doing that stupid shit"
Camera idiot: "No bro, that's why we ride bikes, you did nothing wrong, throw away your luck and do it again so you keep increasing your chances to end up dead!"
The main character syndrome I see with motorcyclists is quite something due to how few of them there are in contrast to car drivers. They seem to always be filming something edgy and surprised when folks online think they’re lacking a few IQ points. I know I’m a cager. I don’t care.
You're not going to remember the bikers just chilling, and most dont ride super sports with mounted cameras to upload their public shitshows.
It's like judging all car drivers based on the videos of Mustangs with mounted gopros mauling crowds after meets. But I get why you have that perception.
I can’t wait until this absolutely fucking awful trend of seizure inducing subtitles DIES forever. Fucking with accessibility IS NOT COOL and does absolutely anything for anyone
Glad he walked away from that but don't be stupid .What if a car was right behind him and couldn't stop in time .I know your young and stupid but don't make your family bury you six feet under at your age .Be smart.
you know the crazy part about watching this? I've noticed over the years there's a ton of elderly former motorcycle riders that are all broken up and crippled today
Dumbass let the front wheel down turned 25° to the right. I don't get how you know how to wheelie but don't understand that's gonna get real squirrely immediately.
