Nice one Maz

It took a couple of plays to figure out the goose that did the damage was doing a burn out while sitting backwards on the front guard. I wonder why there is so few good stunt riders :lol: I guess they thin themselves out :roll:

Are you sure about that BJScorps, I was thinking it was the dude doing shirt-off doughies got in the way of the super-dude who was about to pull off the first ever "sitting on front guard facing backwards loop-out flip" and land it!

I wonder what they would call that trick?

Otherwise its just the old case of you never can always tell what you sometimes least expect to happen the most.

My interpretation

Looking at the video, it looks like there is a rider in the conventional position, seated on the bike in the background. He has his (not-so-bright) mate hanging over the front of the bars to keep him in place while he does the burn-out.

Then it looks like he suddenly gets a LOT more traction than he wants which starts the wheelie, launching his stupid mate into the air and they catapault into the equally stupid guy doing burnouts. . without a shirt on.

I love the way the shirtless guy jumps up with the "what the? what the?" bounce in his step, looking around for someone to blame.

The insurance companies must LOVE these guys!!

He wasn't sitting on the bike the wrong way, the bike was just facing the wrong direction. :mrgreen:

That was a show and the one in the background was just someone from the crowd that decided to join in.

I doubt anyone with a stuntbike would actually waste money on insurance :lol:
