This is a metaphor, a Christian allegory. The fact that I have to explain to you that Jesus is the Warthog, and the Banana is drepanocytosis is just embarrassing for you.

You're right.

Someone's got the guy, someone's got the bike, and I think that person on the left is calling 911

One person is stealing the bike, another grabbed his wallet and ran away.

The first one is alright but it's missing something... Oh yeah, a few large rectangular metal hard boxes on the back.

The second one... Is it for jockeys with 5' long arms? Chimpanzees?

Shouldn't there be oil coolers on that 4 valve?

I'm marveling at how far disconnected from the bike he is by the time he enters frame.

What kind of shenanigans were afoot before he tried the tail light buffet?

Im guessing hes never been on a motorcycle and just went full throttle and popped that clutch.

Nah, are you sure?

Seems like he already had forward motion before he cranked it.

Most of the time what I've seen with what you describe is bike scorpion kicks away, while the rider gets thrown on there rear end. Not launched across the air at velocity.

Usually their idle is set to about 4K RPM so the bike is probably "idling" in that video

I took one in China when I was about 19. Wrong side of the highway splitting traffic, riding on the sidewalk, blowing through lights, all without any gear. It was fun but I wouldn't do it now.

They have them in Paris where they use Goldwings. They seem OK, but sharing helmets is gross and I wouldn't trust a 23 year old.

Finally edited together the footage from my little trip to Snowdonia a few weeks back, slightly sloppy editing as I'm still bitter about my gopro corrupting some of the footage :(

I'm glad it didn't wrap up in a wheel or your chain, but goddamn that is funny
