looked like he just jumped off his bike. at least he was wearing gear
What a douche.
He was going like 70 around 5mph traffic.
I see your bad breaking video and raise you a could have been much worse video.

Close your eyes, look deep in your soul, step outside yourself and let your mind go.
he is damn lucky to have a right foot. That was a close call to him being an amputee.

He dumped his bike awfully quickly.
Very lucky to have his foot.
wow, sucks. Would an aftermarket stabilizer have helped any there or was he prettymuch doomed? Seemed like the bike was wandering during his wheelie.
I combine your brake fail + wheelie fail videos:

and thats why I don't wheelie. Well that and I kind of suck at them.
You Sir know nothing of true greatness. I of course refer to ones ability to steal, drink and generally do nothing, and carry it off with style
Apparently, the Commies have neither the protective gear, the ablility, nor the brakes to carry out such squidly maneuvers.
Gotta love the look on the truck driver's face: "WaaaatazeeFUCKaaa-aare-ayouTHINKINK?"

I'm surprised the truck driver in the OP even noticed that fast. He must have been watching his mirrors for the turn?
thats why well load the front end kids. He could have stopped but grabbed a hand full of front brake wayyy to fast.
lucky mofo.
and yes most truckers watch the passenger mirror while turning to make sure the dont hit anything . . . very lucky for that guy

I don't have a video of it but watched a woman almost slam into the side of a car because of poor braking technique. She was going downhill toward a light, the light turned red and she didn't notice or at least she didn't care and didn't slow down. The car in front of my had a green left turn arrow and pulled out to turn left, the woman finally noticed the red light and smashed down on her rear brake only. She went into a skid but managed to stop a few feet away from the car, probably had to go home and change her pants. It was obvious she only hit the rear brake because the front didn't dive at all and her rear left a skid mark on the road.
