I assumed (and hoped) that it was fake right from the start. I would hate to have police resources of this magnitude wasted on a prank. The build-up laughing in particular would have really bothered me if I thought these guys were doing it for real.

But I still had to laugh myself at the result!

With all this nonsense on the roads, wouldn't you want a dashcam too?

Something's up. Maybe I'm just not familiar with Russian camera technology, but I don't know of any camera that records snow when it breaks...

He biked over the ocean too? <img class="smiley" src="http://cdn.videosift.com/cdm/emoticon/tongue.gif">


Don't be silly. He clearly used the chunnel.

Seemed more like the 80s tv show to me...

I'd just like to know what the biker at 1:53 was thinking. The car driver has been swerving towards them, and so he decides to ride right beside him!?

meh, I hope he lives to see the place condemned and demolished...

I like our system for small measurements. I prefer fractional divisions, especially with the multiple of two in the denominator. It's easier to think about bisecting graduations than it is to divide them by ten when you are talking about small distances. I mean, a tenth of a mm is just stupid. I'd rather a system that has a finer resolution to its units, i.e. half, quarter, eighth, sixteenth, etc... It gives me a bit more freedom to pick the best unit given the precision of what I'm working with.
I'd never use it in a scientific context however. I'm mostly talking about workshop stuff.


As primarily a metric user, I'm just the opposite. When faced with adding 5/8 and 17/32, I'd have an easier time using 15.9 and 13.5. For accuracy I always use fractions though. But the best is when I'm working with something designed in metric so I'm adding 16 and 14...

How on earth did he pull the move at the end where he springs off his head and lands on his feet!?!?

To each his own I guess, I just tried listening to both simultaneously and it didn't really sound that different to me...

Thank goodness for the titles at 3:50 - I had forgotten what I was watching!

Sorry to ruin the illusion, but watch to the right at about helmet hight as he approaches the road. You can clearly see the ramp in question - specifically for jumping the road. Still not exactly a safe pass!

Oh well, I'll try this... *promote

Good, I needed to know: Why do Odessians drive so willingly into deeply flooded streets?

If you put a gun to my head and told me I had to do this or bridge-crane, I'd do this in a heartbeat.

Although, if the choice was gun or bridge-crane, I would have to think about it...

If only I had a penny for every time I had to buck up and huck it...
