thats is just some sheer stupidity in there. i may be nuts but i sure aint that stupid. | ||
| Irideabuell |
I especially liked the one of the idiot with his girl on the back (in shorts and tank top and no helmet) doing a stoppie. If I didn't see this kind of stupidity on the local roads all the time I wouldn't believe it. It's no wonder motorcyclists are usually looked upon as fools. | ||
| No_rice |
not that i dont see plenty of stuff like that also, but like the guy that is on one wheel running down the median, what do you think is going to happen when you try to drive off of the side of it. if he would have cut it at a better angle(maybe) | ||

Some looked as though they were out of the public roads which I have no issue with. Screwing around on occupied roads is an invitation to the hospital or jail. Last guy hitting guardrail is great. Also notice how many of them actually wore any gear. I for one screw around every now and then but never in traffic where if I should go down that I jeaopardize others. Good find. Paul.. read your posts, glad the trip was a success. | ||

Momma used to say that stupid is as stupid does. | ||

Damn The guy in the hospital was smiling as he was describing what was happening to him. Wait till the realization sets in, he will never walk or ride again. Dumb ass. Stupid hurts. I have no remorse for squids who mess themselves up. I use to do wheelies and dumb shit untill i smashed my foot to shit but never did it in traffic. I have never purposely did a wheel since. I think most of us have gone threw a squid stage. I just wonder how many have wisened up to it? (Message edited by paw on October 20, 2006) | ||

"Have I ever told you,  you're my HERO"!! NOT!!!!! Please Morons, keep it up, natural selection will take its course. It's just a Da** Shame the rest of us have to pay for your stupidity through higher insurance rates and all the negative publicity you generate! | ||

I just laugh at those idiots. I wonder if their mommies spank them for crashing every bike ever bought for them? | ||
| Tx05xb12s |
I wonder if the chick on the back of the stoppie's father has seen this... As for the last guy that ate the guard rail, he's either stupid or on drugs. How can someone that just destroyed their spinal cord lie there and act like it's no big thing? Wow. Wow. Wow. And I though I was upbeat. | ||
| Teddagreek |
He'll be hurting for the rest of his life. If he can walk again.. I wonder if a back protector would have even helped? If you don't have self preservation kick in darwins theory was right.. My favorite was the bike that flung its self 6 feet in the air,  | ||

No need to do wheelies, I try to keep both wheels on the ground whenever possible. This is coming from someone with no experience on one wheel. I think of it this way: I wish I had never smoked that first cigarette...I wouldn't know any better. I don't know how to wheelie, I don't try and it's probably better that way. | ||

+1 I certainly don't think of myself as old but I ain't trying to learn any new tricks that will lead to some of the stuff in that video. I cannot believe that people would try stuff like that in traffic without gear! | ||
| New12r |
Yall talk a lot of smack about these guys, I agree most are dumb for not wearing gear, in traffic and so on but what they do takes SKILL!! Stuntin aint easy, and dont forget, Nascar was started by moonshiners running from the cops, now look at it. | ||
| Tq_freak |
I agree that stuntin is not easy but, there is a time and a place for it. If that clown was wearing gear he might be able to ride again but not now. I don't know, I think I like my bike to much to throw it across a parking lot. | ||

I liked the guy who ran into the back of the pick-up truck because he was too busy looking around making sure everyone was watching him. Stupid hurts. | ||
| No_rice |
i cant say i never do any similar stuff, and it does take a lot of skill and i am no where near as good as i would like to be. the main problem i have with some of that stuff in the vid is just that i wonder where there common sense was in most of those shots. many of them were accidents just because the person was screwing off. i wont say dont do that type of stuff because i do some. but if you are going to, you have to focus completely on whats going on | ||
| Seth |
"...but if you are going to, you have to focus completely on whats going on..." Using full safety gear and having sponsorship to pay for all the replacement bike parts you destroyed wouldn't hurt either. | ||
| Rasmonis |
I just couldn't afford the repair/hospital bills and it would suck not being able to ride. I've spent enough time off my bike this year due to accidents. I agree with No_rice, if you're going to stunt do it where the only person getting hurt is the "stunter". It amazes me the stupid things people do sometimes. I believe it has something to do with a need for attention or approval from our peers. | ||

Live and let live. Sometimes you just have to. Rocket | ||
| Not_purple_s2 |
Totally agree. It's cool and it takes talent and balls but it should not be endangering others. And without proper protection and a "safe" place to ride away from traffic and other hazzards (gaurd rails and light poles) it's just asking for major injury. The guy with the kid on the back needs a severe ass-kick. What the F*CK!!! (Message edited by not_purple_s2 on October 22, 2006) | ||

I'm with you Ras, Never try to wheelie on purpose. There is nothing more exhilarating than that occasional two to six inch power wheelie that arises from a combination of road conditions exhuberance. I did two, maybe three of those in a year and a half on a M2, that was plenty. As near as I can tell FXD's won't wheelie and I'm pretty much satisfied with that. Jack |
