I don't believe it. The road must be covered in oil or something. They don't seem to be holding much weight on their arms the way they are holding on, or they should have arms like Popeye.

Those guy must take the prize for craziest fuckers ever.

The explaination is that the roads in Dubai are absolutly smooth as, due to the sand abrasion. Thence not much grip and you can do silly / awesome stuff like the skating.

Which kinda worries me, because you can juuuuuuuust see the idiots who ghost ride / rice / dori dori are going to try this as a new fad and fail spectaclarly

As a professional cameraman, and even in taking home movies, I've always felt rule number 2 (right behind keep it steady) is shut the gently caress up. I hope those guys take another lap sometime and end up in a tree.

I wonder if that's the Ring Taxi or something. The driver sounds sort of like a tour guide humoring stupid assholes - and the cameraman/narrator definitely qualifies for that in spades. Plus, the "BMV" thing screams "tourist" - it's pretty obvious that he doesn't speak German well if at all, and is trying to fake it.

E: The E46 is really pretty, I feel bad for BMW for making ugly cars nowadays :(

E2: I like how the film ends by showing all the workers and how they are just regular happy human beings (and with those great German union wages, they ought to be happy).
