wow, that's actually very sad. The biker probably was thinking about what to do for the demonstration and not to look for actual obstacles :(

I wasn't sure at first, but I looked at it frame by frame. The guy did get tagged pretty hard from the side. I wouldn't be surprised if the impact broke the leg.

Maybe staged, but still funny!!

If not staged, I do hope the rider was okay.

where did the bike go? to me i want to say staged. cause i would think if they were going to show off new equipment like that and having a car down the road wait they would have the street shut down.

I think it's staged. Funny tho!

I think a Air bag Suit/gear would be the best idea. guess it would only work if you were ejected off the bike, which is 99% of what happens...safety plug, just like on all quads, but on the Motorcycle gear. hahaha

Scheisse! Unglaublich!

Just proves the point that a pretty girl on the side of a road is a distraction and potential traffic hazard.

I'm guessing it was staged, but I'm not convinced. Either way, the lesson is clear: don't rely on technology to save you.
