A more acurate title for that would have been:
"Always Wear Your Helmet, Especially When You're Gonna Ride Like An Asshat" :no

Why is it people enjoy watching other riders getting hurt? .
Is it because they have never felt the pain of sliding on asphalt. or ever had to pick up a fellow rider that is torn up by a crash or worse yet had to bury a friend.
Just remember while you are finding humor in these types of videos there are only 2 kinds of riders. The ones that have been down and the ones that are going down.
The day you crash I hope no one has a camera so the rest of the world can laugh at your pain.

Who was laughing? :confused:
I didn't find any humor in the video... in fact I think it irritated me more than anything else. I thought it was a tad ironic that most of the riders shown crashing brought the accidents upon themselves because they were riding like asshats.
I just want to say this:
If you choose to "stunt" your bike while wearing little to no protection (especially in traffic), then I WILL NOT feel sorry for you, or show you any sympathy when you crash... and I may even laugh at your public display of supreme stupidity. I will then hope that the extreme pain that results from said stupidity is severe enough to keep them from making the same poor decision again in the future.
...and yes, I HAVE crashed and I know first hand the pain of sliding on asphalt, as well as the pain of being hit by a car at speed.

I'm with you Lucky Devil.
I stopped the Vid at the famous 114 tank slapper on Isle of Man. He slid tell he stopped...:confused: It hurts to watch...
I see way too many racers and trackday riders get hurt every season. For me I don't need to see footage of it. I get to see it for real on weekends...:(
But I had someone say once that they watch them to help him stay focused. He said if he never saw the vids of crashes it wouldn't be in his minds eye how bad it must hurt to crash. That said maybe some people get something positive out of it.
I just don't.

Hey slow down there. Draw back those claws. I was referring to the Forum this thread was posted under COMEDY CORNER, not your response.
Maybe it is just me but, I was expecting something funny when I opened the thread, instead I was upset.
I didn't watch but a few seconds of this clip.Long enough that I will agree with you that people doing stupid things bring on their own Karma. I do not support stunting on the highways nor riding without gear and if clips like these remind riders not to act carelessly then something good comes from them. but not humor found in the pain of their mistakes.
I apologize for the misunderstanding of my post.

Geez... can't I reply to a post with vigor without someone getting misunderstood and having to apologize?
...seriously
I don't/didn't have any claws out... except maybe towards the idiots featured in the video.
