You will need to scroll right to see everything.

OK, here is the setup. The ramp is two guys lying on each other with a board leaned against them.

Mexican Motor Police show at Fuji Blue Sky Heaven near Tokyo on 17 May 08. They appear to ride regular Softails and Road Kings. Yes, they are nuts.

Who are the idiots that were used for the ramp and goofballs getting jumped over, they do know that is roughly 900lbs flying over them right?

He landed OK and nobody was hurt during the Mexican Police stunt show. I was surprised that an apparently stock Softails can do these type of stunts without breaking in half!

Do they sell raffle tickets to see who wins a chance and lay under the ramp? Or is that where the losers end up!!
