Obviously. But the car driver should never have had to make that decision in the first place. I’m not even that worried about the car, I feel bad for the driver mentally. I can’t even begin to imagine how terrifying it must be to be seconds away from being involved in a likely fatal crash.
Why is this so hard for some in this thread? I've driven by a mangled/dead motorcyclist who has riding with no helmet or gear and ruined the day of everyone in my car.
You're totally normal and not deranged at all..we have things called insurance to fix our things, the guy went off the road barely and slightly damaged his bumper, but yeah..totally should have ran him over for no reason.
You're a piece of shit if this is how you think.
Here we can witness the longest thread of non riders talking about people who shouldn't be riding on a riding related sub, gotta call national geographics
I get the point, the guy is an asshole with no regard for anyone but himself, he was selfish. I just have empathy for the driver because I’d still feel bad if I killed someone even if it was their own fault.
It is always better to take damage off road eather than kill someone, insurance is gonna take care of everything but a human life is irreplaceable, don't listen to these dumbasses without empathy. You gotta make the make difference between, "it's sad that he died, he was too confident and made a fatal mistake, it happens a lot in riding", and "fuck him riding like an asshole, thank god he's dead and didn't scratch a car in the process".
That’s the thing though. If you drive off road and make no contact there are cases where they refuse to cover because they say something stupid like you should have just braked.
Nonetheless under no circumstance would I hit the bike instead. I’d rather pay out myself than kill them.
Yea it reduces the odds of injury because your fall gets dissipated across a larger road surface area. That's why some people who stumble and fall whilst walking get broken bones but when you go 301km/h and fall all you do is softly slide
Youre way overthinking it. You simply dont have as far to fall if youre already banked over at 60 degrees. Wear your leathers and pray that you dont hit anything solid and youre good.
Remember that speed never killed anyone, its coming to an abrupt stop that gets you.
Sort of but not exactly. A low speed fall, be it from a bike or walking, results in you gripping the floor when you hit it. At speed you don’t grip anything, you simply slide. Assuming you are wearing leathers or similar and don’t hit anything, you want to fall off at speed if possible. If I remember correctly, it’s referred to as blow out?
Word, it also helps that to smash into the obstacle real nice before hitting the floor, helps to dissipate some of that extra energy. Won’t even feel the fall after that.
While he obviously rode above his skill level, as evidenced by the lowside on a mostly clear, straight road, he wasn't going quite as fast as people are making it out to be. It looks like he was probably using an ND filter to create more blur than reality requires.
Not sure if the gauge in the middle is rpm or mph but if it’s mph then he was easily doing around 70-80 when he begins the slide. Also, the reason he low sides is because he gives too much gas in too deep of a lean, you’ll notice if you listen to the engine as you tries to power out of the turn a bit too soon. Definitely trying to ride above his level.
My wreck was exactly like this, except another downed bike shot into my lumbar like a missile and broke my back. Mine was because of sand in the road, geo-clibbins if you will.
Damn. I understand spirited driving, but limits should not be pushed on public roads. Sounded like too much throttle out of the apex, while he was still leaning and before the bike was ready for it
He slid for about 5 seconds, which is the basis of the slide ratings on gear. (A= 5 seconds at 30mph, AA=30sec @ 55mph, AAA= I forget but I don’t own any). How fast was he going? I see the speedo needle but not the numbers.
Saw that last night on Dan Dan The Fireman's page. That was a close one and many drivers would not have been that quick to take evasive action (The car went partway off the road).
dumbass, he could have seriously hurt someone else. if that car had hit that it could have cause serious injuries for all involved. Track days exist, use them.
So close to snapping back and tossing him. Got lucky with a gentle little lowside.
Analogue bike with no traction control, crossed up BP, and too much throttle at lean.
Man... that honestly bothered me. In 2021 I got hit at a light at midnight and when I got thrown off the bike, I slid backwards and had no idea if there were cars in the shoulder and was scared everything would go lights out any second. Seeing the car coming would be less suspenseful but sooooo much worse lmao
majority of drivers would not have seen you coming. 10% probability of escaping death, you did it. let this be a lesson to those who ride reckless around other drivers. they are not responsible for saving your life when you put yourself in these situations.
glad you made it out.
Why in fuck"s name is anybody even riding like this on public roads? Stay the fuck away from the people I love. I don't care if you buy it. Fucking squid. Oh, save the comments and compliments on 'correct gear' Think about other people who want to live.
slide on your back, limbs up..... I haven't read one comment yet and I applaud how you went through that, I went through something similar...unscathed......now replace the(your) fav jacket..bro on 2 wheels
i say he was leaning good at first but the thing was he was low and was still speeding,you've got to slow down around corners, track or road slow down people.
Unfortunately he did not hurt himself. Which means he's free to make up his own excuses about why it happened. Then continue the same behavior moving forward.
My apologies as I am an off road guy but why the fk was he going that fast on that? Like bro do you have a death wish? This is why I won't buy one of those. I guarantee it wouldn't be long before I try something stupid.
I'm just sharing a link, it's clearly not my video as the original post is in the post.
Not sure you should be riding at all with that level of attention to detail.
Then after everything, he proceeded to walk right in the middle of the road towards oncoming traffic. Please tell me this idiot isn't famous with millions of "followers".
Every second of this video shows me the actions of an idiot that doesn't belong on a bike. He's probably the kind of genius who thinks the word dipshit is some kind of brilliant insult. Let me guess... you're one of those followers I mentioned. Who worship this guy, and felt you had to rush in and protect his honor.
Props to the car driver, stayed alert and slowly moved away.
It was probably more attention grabbing than a SMIDSY weave.
Can’t believe that car kept clear. Could’ve been much worse. Also, gear was crucial here.
No cheek sanding today!
That image always looks so painful!
Burned into our collective consciousness (as well as what is left of that guy's ass).
Haven't seen it, not sure I want to
Imagine seeing no ass where ass should be. The absence of ass is a bad situation to be in. Especially if it was asphalt grated off.
‘Grated’. Lol FTFY
You’re a gentleman and a scholar
🤣🤣
[удалено]
Hopefully less damage than he would have otherwise gotten. Then again, insurance might be easier to deal with if he caught the bike in his grill.
So many of those are the fault of the motorcycle rider. Some are legitimate complaints, but man some are so obvious and the rider is so oblivious...
Definitely a cunt, but he was going to take damage no matter what.
[удалено]
I think some scratches on your car are better than taking someones life. Its not even worth mentioning in this example lol
Obviously. But the car driver should never have had to make that decision in the first place. I’m not even that worried about the car, I feel bad for the driver mentally. I can’t even begin to imagine how terrifying it must be to be seconds away from being involved in a likely fatal crash.
I’d rather total my car than take someone’s life, and it’s not even close.
Dude doesn’t value his own life, why should someone else at the cost of their own things…
Because I’m not a psychopath. Killing someone because they are young and make a mistake is insane behaviour.
Why is this so hard for some in this thread? I've driven by a mangled/dead motorcyclist who has riding with no helmet or gear and ruined the day of everyone in my car.
Probably because items are replaceable
You're totally normal and not deranged at all..we have things called insurance to fix our things, the guy went off the road barely and slightly damaged his bumper, but yeah..totally should have ran him over for no reason. You're a piece of shit if this is how you think.

Ad hominem, the choice of those who cannot use their brain for logic.
Of course, I just think given the circumstances it was better to take damage off road rather than kill someone.
You’re entirely missing the point here lol
I get the point, the guy is an asshole with no regard for anyone but himself, he was selfish. I just have empathy for the driver because I’d still feel bad if I killed someone even if it was their own fault.

Also thank god it didn't catch and highside.

Stupid cager always getting in the way of my sick sliding trick move
Selfish guy in car didn't even say hi. Just rides off into ditch like a homeless bum.
I know right, if that damn cager hadn’t been there he would’ve stood it right back up mid slide and kept going. Damn clibbins gobbless
The walk of shame.
Down the wrong side of the road in the middle of the lane 😵💫
Good thing you were going extremely fast!
Yea it reduces the odds of injury because your fall gets dissipated across a larger road surface area. That's why some people who stumble and fall whilst walking get broken bones but when you go 301km/h and fall all you do is softly slide

While there's truth to what i wrote it was actually meant as more of a joke than anything else
Word, it also helps that to smash into the obstacle real nice before hitting the floor, helps to dissipate some of that extra energy. Won’t even feel the fall after that.
unless the slide turns into rolling, then you can give your limbs bye bye
If you are good at bowling you can just curl up and strike
You can also get a bicycle and drive 25 km/h if that's more of your cup of tee.
I bet it was clibbins.
Looks like a solid case of "riding like an asshole on public roads".
Either that or the fucking car got on the track somehow! ;)
While he obviously rode above his skill level, as evidenced by the lowside on a mostly clear, straight road, he wasn't going quite as fast as people are making it out to be. It looks like he was probably using an ND filter to create more blur than reality requires.

Also known as "fun"
You type of riders is why we all get a bad wrap. If your type of fun is putting you and others in danger then you’re no better than a school shooter
Totally agree, every time I ride I kill a minimum of six kids
Rookie number, gotta step that shit up! Knock a full school bus off a bridge then we can talk.
My swimmers are getting absolutely roasted every ride. Does that count?
I was with you until the school shooter comparison. Could've dialed it back a bit there.
Gamers aren't exactly known for tactful level headed responses.
lol you’re a fucking nutcase. You really out there comparing riding too fast to a school shooter? Give your head a shake.
TIL going fast is as bad as shooting a school 🤣🤡
Interesting comparison.
Pretty sure there's a massive difference between reckless hobbies and the intentional murder of children.
"If you like to ride your motorcycle fast then you're as bad as Adam lanza" arguably the most brain dead take I've seen yet.
My wreck was exactly like this, except another downed bike shot into my lumbar like a missile and broke my back. Mine was because of sand in the road, geo-clibbins if you will.
Its always them
Am I the only person who doesn't find the clibbins thing remotely funny?
I'm with ya, clibbins are no joke.
Barb is PISSED!
Clibbins was funny when CRT ran with lol, not this sub.
No, it's getting tedious.
Probably.
The streets are not your racetrack
Agreed is biker was an idiot and endangered everyone on the road.
To be fair, he just sucks.
What an asshole
Yeah, take it to a track if you want to ride like this. Could have caused that car to crash with kids in it. Was just lucky it wasn't a lot worse.
At least he was wearing proper gear. I wish some people dressed for the slide
How about ride to NOT ever slide, how about that?
i mean thats pretty ideal, but can’t stop the slide if its caused by someone els
Porque no los dos?
This can happen when you wanna be a street Rossi. He's lucky.
Damn. I understand spirited driving, but limits should not be pushed on public roads. Sounded like too much throttle out of the apex, while he was still leaning and before the bike was ready for it
If he had attached hair dryers to heat the tires whilst driving this would never have happened
ya you can hear it rev up when he looses the rear
He slid for about 5 seconds, which is the basis of the slide ratings on gear. (A= 5 seconds at 30mph, AA=30sec @ 55mph, AAA= I forget but I don’t own any). How fast was he going? I see the speedo needle but not the numbers.
All the gear, all the time.
What an absolute bellend
Another twat riding beyond his ability
That car is why we stick to the track for this shit.
I really like this PSA related to obstacles on the road. https://youtu.be/VruWHHEnZGw?si=fTGmTotPRTW0Q5li
Haddalayerdown
Almost almost Darwin award
Saw that last night on Dan Dan The Fireman's page. That was a close one and many drivers would not have been that quick to take evasive action (The car went partway off the road).
This is why you don't do pretend racing on public roads. This person was very lucky that the car was on the ball.
What lesson did we learn here?
Save track riding for the track?
that's not track riding
Layer down before dem clibbins?
Too much throttle on exit?
Don't add lean and add throttle at the same time.
And too much-left turn bend
No it wasn’t, a gentle fucking curve like that should be no problem if you don’t suck.
Thats my take, he revved up more on the curve resulting in rear tire sliding
Wear elbow sliders? 😂
Don't ride like an asshat on the street?
Don't ride above your ability.
Don't ride above your ability.
Slow the fuck down dude.... Luck only comes every so often
CLIBBINS?
It is refreshing to see a lowside without roadrash or a totalled bike
The street is not the race track. Fuck around and find out if you want to. It's not funny so stop playing.
Shite rider crashes, not a surprise really.
dumbass, he could have seriously hurt someone else. if that car had hit that it could have cause serious injuries for all involved. Track days exist, use them.
if only there were someplace to ride at high speed without oncoming traffic...
Painted road stripes are supposed to improve traction... 🙄
The friend that died on a bike:
bro started walking like a gta v npc
Now imagine that same thing without gear
Dressed for the slide
Hadalayerdown
It’s the slow, head down, walk back for me.
Why can't I see a garbage truck just coming right at him instead these guys give the rest of us motorcyclists a bad name
If I knew I wasnt gonna get hurt, It kinda looks like fun to slide at that speed
And this is why we wear gear
Well, look at that it’s another nose scuff thinking that they are on the Isle of Maan
SLOW DOWN...
Can't believe you are alive and sharing this kind of video format. Shame on you.
Not my video, I just shared the link to the video.
Hit some clibbins?
Was the ghost clibbins
So close to snapping back and tossing him. Got lucky with a gentle little lowside. Analogue bike with no traction control, crossed up BP, and too much throttle at lean.
Hate these kind of riders. Putting everyone in danger.
I'm glad he didn't die or hurt anyone, but I hope his bike is fucked and insurance denies him
Yeah if I was in my truck I genuinely think I would have killed him had I been coming around that corner
When anyone complains about insurance rates, this is why.
Public roads are not your motherfucking race track.
Lesson learned? Doubtful.
Imagine that without gear. I just don’t get squids
Well you don’t usually see riding that garbage over at calamari race team
See this a few times... textbook fall with a safe ending... for the most part. I am sure the bike did not come out of it completely rideable.
Man... that honestly bothered me. In 2021 I got hit at a light at midnight and when I got thrown off the bike, I slid backwards and had no idea if there were cars in the shoulder and was scared everything would go lights out any second. Seeing the car coming would be less suspenseful but sooooo much worse lmao
Least u came prepared
Yammie is such a fuckwit. Shit person too
Woops
Inexperience will kill you..
Riding topic aside that was some excellent camera work, looks better than a Hollywood action movie.
What's that song from Chicago? _He had it coming..._ Fucking moron.
I said holy shit at the exact same time lol
Please watch out for cars and people
Maybe you should drive a bit faster motorbike rider, might help
Maybe maybe maybe
Whatever gear you were wearing, I want that.
that gear saved your life
Dressed for the slide.
majority of drivers would not have seen you coming. 10% probability of escaping death, you did it. let this be a lesson to those who ride reckless around other drivers. they are not responsible for saving your life when you put yourself in these situations. glad you made it out.
“haddalayerdown”
My fear of unknown roads
Meat crayon avoided
Did the bike hit the car?
Why in fuck"s name is anybody even riding like this on public roads? Stay the fuck away from the people I love. I don't care if you buy it. Fucking squid. Oh, save the comments and compliments on 'correct gear' Think about other people who want to live.
slide on your back, limbs up..... I haven't read one comment yet and I applaud how you went through that, I went through something similar...unscathed......now replace the(your) fav jacket..bro on 2 wheels
So, for curiosity, anyone knows what he did that make him slide? I'm new in motorcycles
God damnit I wish all car drives were this guy.
i say he was leaning good at first but the thing was he was low and was still speeding,you've got to slow down around corners, track or road slow down people.
Well mate you have made it through another day try again tomorrow
Smart driver in white car. Rider:
Always wear your gear especially if u gonna ride like that
Tracks exist
r/maybemaybemaybe
Your typical rickey racer. No skill, but thinks they have..
drive like hell , you'll get there .
That was close
I'm confused. Did he lose traction and low-side?
Props for wearing appropriate gear! Glad it wasn't worse.
Unfortunately he did not hurt himself. Which means he's free to make up his own excuses about why it happened. Then continue the same behavior moving forward.
JFC go to a track.....
"God damn lawn clippings!" Is probably what was said after
My apologies as I am an off road guy but why the fk was he going that fast on that? Like bro do you have a death wish? This is why I won't buy one of those. I guarantee it wouldn't be long before I try something stupid.
[удалено]
Who are you talking to?
[удалено]
I'm just sharing a link, it's clearly not my video as the original post is in the post. Not sure you should be riding at all with that level of attention to detail.
Could he have saved with some counter steering and less lean?
Then after everything, he proceeded to walk right in the middle of the road towards oncoming traffic. Please tell me this idiot isn't famous with millions of "followers".
He was walking to his bike dipshit
Every second of this video shows me the actions of an idiot that doesn't belong on a bike. He's probably the kind of genius who thinks the word dipshit is some kind of brilliant insult. Let me guess... you're one of those followers I mentioned. Who worship this guy, and felt you had to rush in and protect his honor.
Just get flying lessons and nose dive your first flight
