I never understood how someone could think it funny that another person wrecked there bike. You guys that laugh at it, just think the next time you drop a bike that I will be there right around the corner laughing at you. I mean, how would you feel if you dropped your bike and someone was standing there laughing at you.
I dont think I remember seeing anyone laugh at anyone getting hurt during normal riding. All the laughing I have seen and participated in was videos pertaining to clowns getting there due punishment. You stand on your seat and fall off, I'll laugh my @ss off. [8D]

It is very unfortunate when someone dies doing a stunt. They know the risks and they take them. Why do stunts without a helmet? Why do stunts at all? Some people get a thrill doing the stunt. Others get the thrill being the center of attention. I get my thrills in the saddle on an open road. I watch some of those videos to try and learn how to get out of trouble. Go to the VIDEO section of this forum and watch "Harley surfing then crashing". 13members called this guy anything from a dumbazz to a dumbf***er.My question is, Is amotorcycle fabricator any better than this guy, whether he is famous or not?

I'm not a big fan of watching motorcycle crashes. For me, it's just brings about a bad vibe; a karma kinda' thing. I can understand the interest/intrigue, however by many. One of my employees handed me a link to a site dedicated solely to motorcycle crashes; included both video and some rather gruesome 'after crash' pictures. Not my thing.

Some interesting replies... and Indian Larry's sad demise was noted.

I hate seeing people hurt... but if it is a real street or race riding video, then there is almost always something tolearn from by watching: Such as when a rider gets the wobblies in the front end and doesn't know how to pull out of that, or, when a cager does some new & stupid thing that puts a rider at risk. Riding can be freakin dangerous these days, and I want to keep learning.
