Thankfully only the biker was killed 🤮
Is the van okay?
I've watched it over and over and I still don't understand how he didn't make the corner.
I've seen Volvo drivers with more skill and coordination than he had, and that's saying something.
0:26 whoa
What amazed me was, it’s not even a high speed crash. Looks like it doesn’t take much to be fatal on a motorbike, probably would have been survivable in a modern car.
Escape death 1000 times but you die once
Raise awareness of what….being a complete idiot? A heavy price must be carried for acting stupid on the roads….and it's usually DEATH.
How are you that old and don't understand blind curves?
The guy made a big mistake and paid the price for it. Some of the comments on here are ridiculous, if youve actually ridden a bike which most probably havent, its easy to get carried away, doesnt make it right but doesnt make him a bad one. Its also possible with him only getting on bike, it was a slip in concentration, the way he hits the throttle twice its possible he wasnt aware of his gear and first hit sent him backwards and with that motion he hit it the second time and tried to hold it only to lose his positioning on the road, hit brakes far to hard in panic and stoppies into the oncoming car 🤔🤔
Non wheelie people just don’t understand how much we save on front tires.
Riding his whole life yet gained zero skills. Poor dude.
Imagine being 50 and still doing wheelies?
Respect to the family for trying to give this tragedy a positive spin.
What a waste of time watching this. Didn't see a thing
And yet people on these motorbikes still want to ignore the safety rules oh well 🤷🏿
The road is not a place for stunts
Sadly most bikers who die are men in their 50s who are trying to feel young again.
The thing is when people do this type of actions is not only them at risk BUT innocent bystanders under age and elders people that do this stunts are selfish and dumb when things like this happen I don’t get sad but the opposite knowing the roads are .000000000001% safer
Whahahhaahhaahahaha niceee
That traffic cone was a warning too, he almost died near the cone
Cha cha cha
Pulling that of on a corner 🤯.. Crazy
Ouch muh head
That noise then eerie silence of death that followed gets me everytime 😮
He definetly didnt start riding as a young kid because most of us did and dont do wheelies on roads like that.
Im sure it said slow on the ground…not pop a wheelie 🤷♂️
He's clearly not a competent rider. That was VERY avoidable even after the wheelie. He should have just maintained his trajectory across the road into the grass. Just moving out of the way it's always easier and faster than braking.
He turned a midlife crisis into an end life crisis.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes 🤷🏻♂️
I worked for years in the ER of a major American hospital (which Brits call "A&E). In American ERs motorcycles are referred to as "donorcycles"…an acknowledgement of all the people who get hearts,lungs,kidneys,livers and other organs from people killed on bikes.
Straight from the of he was an incompetent rider,nobody to blame but himself
50 is too old to ride a motorcycle, let alone thinking you're some kind of cool young kid… Your senses and reflexes are way too dulled and slow by that age. Stick to cars, gen-x and older.
He didn't pull a wheelie – he just didn't know what the f he was doing
He survived, according to Iran's Press TV.
Thats why you shouldent maken a wheelie. People always play with things, stop playing with your lives
Wasn’t going that fast if u can’t lean ur bike u don’t belong on a two lane road he wasn’t looking ahead of him thru that curve
Over his major insecurity, he got the attention he sought one last time….
He lived to the same age as Michael Jackson, but accomplished far less.
But at least he didn't rape kids.
What a dummy he created his own destiny
Basically the family released a video to show how dumb he was. Anyone with a braincell who rides bikes knows this is a stupid idea. I've been riding 20+ years, and I've done zero wheelies!
He almost hit the road block
That was some rookie ass riding I’ve ever seen, this man wasn’t experienced at all,RIP 😢
He literally asked for that plus the number of years and experience what was he thinking on a bend
