Default Crazy crash video

Wow....

I watch shit like this to make me take a step back and realize how dangerous riding can be.

At 2:10, theres a bad accident that will give you an idea to what its like to witness it first person....just imagine thats your best friend...hopefully you wont have to go through something like that like I did about a month ago.

He was still alive after the crash. After the cameraman puts his camera down, you can see the downed rider moving his arms.

Definitely some crazy wrecks in that video...

Check out the first person view of this one....I think he will be ok, but man, thats just crazy how shit happens. How would you react?

Personally, i think the person operating the motorcycle, if known how to properly apply the brakes, could have avoided that situation. I think that bike is way more capable of stopping faster than what was shown, but instead, it looks like they locked up the rear brake. You can tell because it never nosedives, it just slides to the right. Still sucks, i know it wasn't the biker's fault, but if they had known how to brake properly they could have possibly avoided it.

I hate watching them but I guess it is good at the same time because it forces me to respect my bike and understand the decision I make while on it.

I think it actually does brush up against that one guy who passes him on his right...but how anyone else didnt get taken out is pure luck.
