http://www.metacafe.com/w/1415529/Yeah gotta love the way he just lets go :bleh: It was stunt work for a tv commerical.

Im sure there is a video of someone highsiding it then running after the bike and jumping on. The closest i could find was this
YhAbh1PB43s

Maybe it is the one im thinking of but i swear the dude actually fell off and ran after it.

For this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D96WFdiOWTg&feature=rec-HM-r2 its D96WFdiOWTg so you put that code between [ youtube][/youtube ] without spaces in the tags.

Good on him, he had pretty good control of it at least ... but then again as you say ... maybe he just wasn't going hard enough to just come off ... but who are we to talk anyway .....

Typical one upmanship. I guess his mate told him he got his knee down so of course he HAD to get both knees down, at the same time...

that bike was doing its best to buck him off, but that is some epic abilities! and even for them, im sure that elevated the heart rate at least a fraction!
