    I don't think he even saw the bike before hitting it. The rider had better feel lucky it wasn't him sliding under the truck.

    Quite. What an idiot. You wanna stunt, do it in the right place so you don't put others at risk (gee, what a thought!).

    I feel sorry for the bike, they can't choose their owners. :cry: :cry:
    As for the rider, I bet he was some kinda sore for a while! :twisted: :twisted:

    What a tool. He was damn lucky the bike wasn't sliding into oncoming traffic 3 seconds earlier or it might have taken the oncoming bike out.

    Look at the truck again when it hits the bike, the front bumper looks like it nearly touches the ground and you see the bed of the truck fly up in the air. I know the video was slowed down, but I bet he hit that thing at a combined speed of at least 55mph.

    Rider is lucky he wasn't killed, can't imagine what possesed him to put others at risk.

    Oh and Zookie, notice the ring of rust fly off the Ford as it hits the bike, it will leave a blast circle of a quarter mile after that impact... :lol:

    Damn. You know what it hard to type when your laughing. You think the driver of the truck did that on purpose? Shame about the bike though

    Did you notice how many times the bike spun around on its side after the 4 wheeler hit it? You know the bike caused front end damage to the pickup.

    ya, in all honesty that poor little 150 probably bent the frame on that hit. i keep watching it in slow motion and you can see she hit ripple through the truck.

    my question:

    you obviously must feel really stupid after you try to look cool and totally fail, but how stupid do you feel knowing its on video and circulating the web?!?!?! LOSER!!!

    Be interesting to see if there is more video on this, like the guy that owns the truck gets out, walks over to the rider and after being assured that said rider is fine, BEATS THE LIVING SH*T OUTTA HIM!

    yeah, i watched the video 4 or 5 times in slo-mo...that F150 is F'd...
    i have done the same thing as that jackass a few times only on a dirt bike (in appropriate places) while learning to ride a wheelie....bring it back to far, start to fall off, and grab even more throttle and end up ass over tea-kettle ...never ran my bike into oncoming traffic though...
    what a dumba$$
