It's scary to think you might be sharing the road with dorks like this. Although, with this one, the sharing time would be brief.

Not really. This was not the result of misfortune but rather stupidity. That's what makes it funny!! He could o' practiced ahead of time to make it less ludicrous. There are guys doing stranger stunts than that attempt, who manage to pull it off.

I'm sure he had some sort of plan, as hard as it is to discern. But that plan went horribly wrong obviously. Hence, misfortune.

Yep erle, for a total 4.85 seconds, anyway!
(...and during that same 4.85 seconds I'd say "the bull" had the rider pretty much by the balls!)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

This is why you should have a look at the owner's manual before you try to figure out how to ride your first bike.

Im Croatian and that first word is familiar (not repeatable on this forum) so i typed the title of the video (also what she said) into google and literally translated...
Zajebisty jestes - F-ing you but with the inflection in her voice and the way she said it I think she said "you fd that up".

You guys DO realize that one must have the ability to READ said owner's manual in order to gleam any possible information contained within, don't ya?!

You guys mean that is the wrong way to ride a motorcycle. I been doing it wrong all this time.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.
