Bah, someone's renamed the file. Seen it.
You wasted 600kb of mine! Give it back!

[Skunk]

Old.

Funny - in a look-at-the-dumb-American way.

Is that video all jerky to you guys?
I've seen it before and thought maybe my file had been corrupted, but I guess not as this one is doing it too. Is it just like that or is there something wrong with my 'puter?

edit: hmm, I just opened it in virtualdub and it played smooth, so I guess there's something wrong with the codec that windows media player uses or something... Any ideas?

sorry for being a bit dizzy guys, but what is a stoppie?

I have an awful feeling your going to say it's when you put your front brake on and go up on just your front wheel. Tell me it's not that, because me 8 year old brother does that on his mountain bike, but he calls it an endo.

That'd be my guess.
I have the jerks on MP here as well (my old file and this new one).

Daisy!! What have I told you about coming in here and winding these nice motorcycle lads up. Get back to your room naughty girl or I'll spank you - again.

Give Media Player Classic a go. Never had any troubles playing any file in it. You can even get real media and quicktime plug ins for it, just google. Handles subs well too (ie .srt, etc).

Tis the only media player you'll ever need on windows.

Endo and stoppies are the same. Here's an example below:

Im surprised you didnt use one of you on your mountainbike and on your gixxer

[NordieBoy]

To me an Endo is a Stoppie that's gone too far...

It's a stoppie until it reaches the heights of perfection - the pinnicle of stoppieness if you will - and then the back wheel gently drifts down to lightly kiss the road (closed to the public of course) culminating in the motorcycling equilivent of successfully jerking yourself off.

If however you rotate past the magical angle of perfection it becomes the dreaded endo which is the motorcycling equivilent of being gang raped...

That is the most beautiful description I've ever heard.

[aff-man]

Third it.


As to the video it's old and it shows what happens when you get squids in jeans who come in to fast and panick when trying to do a stoppie
