    God that first guy is just plain embarrassing to watch. Second one would be damn scary - looks like it almost hit his left arm.

    This is still my favorite though

    first guy probably subscribes to the "it only takes a month to know how to ride" mentality.

    I cant even imagine being the guy in the first vid. I watched this last night like 6 times and was laughing my ass off. As for the second video, people have died from that. On that show jesse james had he raced on one of those nitro bikes and he had to wear a steel plate on his chest.

    Those aftermath pics are pretty nasty. You have them don't you alex? toss em up.

    And i'm not surprised those pistons have killed someone, they can rocket right through an engine block - I imagine a human is no problem.

    Hah but yeah that first video had me laughing my ass off. I'm no pro but i'm pretty good on my bike - I bet that guy had a solid 5 hours under his belt.

    He obviously was in over his head. They normally wont let people race when the track is wet (at least where i'm from). I'll be riding a road bike for the first time this year just gotta get my dad to help me change the brakes. I'm not gonna be racing like that though lol just cruising waving at the honeys.

    From the comments under the video it seems this guy did die. Apparently the piston hit him in the chest causing his lungs to collapse and he died several minutes later. Which is why a titanium plate is now required while racing.

    I think your right because i'm pretty sure they showed that video when jesse james was gonna ride one of those bikes.
