... you never record yourself doing things you don't do everyday.
Safe for work, humorous, but painful.

How about if the jackass with the camera would help out. Maybe they were trying, it seems like so many of these clips are.

Bob,
I almost did it, and it would have hurt. I could only watch once.

Did not look to me like the rider was experienced on that (or most likely any) bike. It sounded like he was slipping the clutch at the top, there was no wheel spin, ramp looked wide enough, what a disaster.
On Advrider they talked about a guy that dumped his brand new KTM in the dealer's lot riding up a 2x8 board. Now that's stupid. In front of his wife. Of course I have been known to be stupid too.:eusa_clap:

It's really hard to judge how quickly you'll stop, going up a steep ramp. He didn't want to barrel into the truck going 30, so he released the clutch to slow down a bit. And stopped. I've done a similar thing going up the ramp to the street from an underground garage. (But I had enough room to get my feet down.) :icon_redface:

Rob I think there is a universal truth in here somewhere. All men are stupid in front of their wives.
Honestly I don't know how they put up with us.
But a good thing they do, otherwise I would be gay!!!
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
Right Bob?:remybussi:

How much beer did they give that poor unsuspecting idiot to perform that stunt?
You think the first example might be painfull?
This is real pain....
