It's not me; it's me flatmate.

I have, prompted by your post, questioned him further. It's not views; it's actual clicks upon the ads.

So, no, there is no direct guaranteed relation.

However, laws of averages... people will click... posting a popular YouTube video can indeed be profitable.

Personally, and this is just me, I'd probably film myself doing 300kph on a motorway just to see what'd happen.

Unless you have hard data to suggest that payments don't scale linearly?

I have anecdotal evidence to suggest that it depends on the quality/retention of the videos. As I've got better at making them and invested in better equipment - the ROI improves.

but because he did not encounter that random driver that did something not normal.
The risk he takes in the vid is not only with his own life, but the lives of those others on the road as well
Filtering at that speed, ....just Plain Stupid
If he could afford to own a bike like that, then he can afford to do it on the track.

so many stupid haters on this site..
glad im not new to motorbikes or you bunch of dick heads might put me off..

What a great vid, Nothing like kaneing threw traffic tapped out, looked like a quite a decent long corner kink type thing at the end. what was that 5th gear about 10K revs! any corner at that speed is going feel awesome. Cant get a corner like that at any track in NZ Wish I still had my bike so I could go for a kane >(
