On Monday, I crashed my Monster at about 50mph. I suffered road rash on my hip and lots of bruising- and Pandora has flesh wounds of her own. Here’s what exactly happened, and the lowdown on the gear that saved my life.
Earlier today I posted the gif of a guy jumping his dirtbike into a river. Fabian on facebook pointed me to the source video- a clip from StuntFreaks Killing IT movie… the dirtbike base jump from 40 meters (that’s about 131 feet for us stupid Americans).
Antti Pendikainen- “I’m planning to drive with the bike, from there to there, as fast as possible. And try not to fuck up. And at the end come down with my base parachute.
This certainly brings new meaning to the saying… “FULL THROTTLE ‘TIL YOU SEE GOD”.
Check it out.
