Default Is it just me, or is it bad luck to...

watch people crashing in videos. A lot of you seem to enjoy watching people wreck. Not my thing. I consider it bad luck to watch those videos, granted there are a lot of idiots out there trying to ride bikes. I prefer to watch people riding who know what they are doing. Then I might be able to learn a thing or two or what to do, instead of what not to do.

I guess they could help me in improving my skills as well. Never thought about it that way. I still don't like watching them tho. Porno's, now that is a different story. No problem there...

I just realized that the reason I have a problem with them is I don't like watching people getting hurt. Not my thing. Do love getting tattooed tho. go figure.

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.
