Bill Dube wrecks the fastest electric motorcycle

[jrokr20]

Did he die? If he did I see how!

[The51239]

did he die?

[markXanna11]

Wat u stupid fuck

[illwill6869]

Dumbass

[richardxx9011]

Notice... He said he doesnt do this and does it anyway... guys dont follow into his foot steps

[TheHornydude101]

The bike can still run idk why ppl make a big deal out of this all it needs is the front part repaired

[KitchenMarshall]

1.21 Giggawatts!!

[maryjane123rd]

It cost him $30,000 to build the bike. Obviously not much cash left for the professional driver. He's got bigger balls than me that's fur sure. Brains I'm not so sure.

[studyofsociety]

holy fucking shit!

[kickemassicus]

What an idiot! Yeah let the computer nerd do the burnout...

[FlamingCuntLips]

That is a pretty awesome bike with a pretty dumb owner o_O

Seriously could they of not found a clearer testing grounds than what appears to be a city center ?

[haha666413]

from zero to100 in 1,9 second is to fast you will not e enabled to turn

[andyovhatfield]

My cordless drill does this sometimes!

[tnt82694]

dude...is the bike ok???

[GoldFtw]

I'm about to save you the trouble, 3:22

[pinoyALLmotorEVOIXMR]

omg that's horrible!!....is the bike ok?? I hope the bike's ok :/

[fdshkj]

he's OK!!! i look it up at the homepage of the bike, but youtube doesnt let me post the link...

He says something like: “I’m Fine (scapes and cuts) Bike is a little bent….”

Thumb up so everyone can see!!

[cappoleaf]

For people who just want to see the crash: 3:22

[chaps666]

He herped when he should have derped.

[yuttivon]

poor van.

[Beto805Cali]

wow that was fast

[MrFox1231]

well at least he didn't lie about the speed.

[CampinCarl354]

The killacycle knows only how to kill

[CampinCarl354]

ahhh that just sux. He put so much money into his creation and the creation turned on him and tried to kill him.

[driftx2]

he should go back to physics class and learn about friction.

[tribalstang]

Dude took off like a fuckin rocket!

[MsFatBeauty]

Lmao I can't get enough of this. Hahahahahahaahahahaa Atleast he's ok

[rz22g]

Sorry it happened but this is why they have drag strips. No need to show out in a public area. Lucky nobody got hurt.

[filmrancher]

i like it. I like Running On Lithium much better. Fuunn

[bfox3000]

LMFAO @ 3:40 He’s not injured, just embarrassed :)

[djgambitron]

sometimes... it's not how fast you go, but how fast you stop.

here's to hoping dude is OK

[slobomotion]

I am with Bruce David Thorpe who just showed me his pal Mr. Dube and I think this is insane! You gotta figure people in other countries see this and think of all the good that money could have done, and here he wrecked it and had no helmet and was in a coma. Well, I wish he learned something -- he is injured. Why go so fast? For what purpose? Well, my concitoyens are a tad nuts, this is obvious. LA gave me the creeps but I was there for the Summer of Helter Skelter. Smog!

[djgambitron]

@slobomotion

at least he's increasing awareness that electric vehicles are not the slow golf carts people think they are as parodied on the simpsons. you pull up to a dragstrip on killacycle and people WON'T "think you're gay".

if electric cars are to catch on, it will be hot rodders who get the ball rolling & create the demand because the industry is fighing it. watch "who killed the electric car"

BTW electric cars would cure that smog you hate. gasoline is the REAL insanity!

[slobomotion]

@djgambitron True!

[Shorty111R]

So I guess he got it to sixty huh? It WAS pretty quick.

[meattube4u33]

that mofo was fast for about 1.5 seconds

[SaraAngelina007]

Amazing and very cool bike !!

[tunespt]

Some people are complete jackasses...

[Eletromanisme]

400 hp Vs one motorcycle disk brake

[nickw691]

@Eletromanisme u mean vs disc breaks front and rear, plus wind drag, plus motor drag.... (electric motors are very un-efficient when you take the power supply off.. assuming he lets go of the throttle) plus rubber to road friction plus plus plus..... so maby u dont say 400 hp vs one disk beak eh?? might want to know a bit about motorcycles b4 commenting next time....

[Eletromanisme]

@nickw691 ooh yer becous the back brake was on.

[koriko88]

When this happens in Vietnam they call it "motorcycle boom". Ouch.

[4mattson]

lmao what an idiot leave this shit to the pro/rider of your bike

[BISHOP9917711]

just because you built it, does not mean you drive it.

[menahunie007]

What people forget with electric motors like the DC type ALL OF THE TORQUE OUTPUT IS NOW... It doesn't build like a gas engine. The minute he let go of the brake and hit dry surface your gone..

[johnnylightning258]

Dumb ass. Plain and simple. Wear gear, and think with your brain. If thats not enough, maybe you shouldn't be on a bike. The rest is up to the cagers around you.

[TheTwistedGypsy]

NO HELMET>>>NO LEATHERS>>>>NO BRAINS....ahahahahahahahahahah­a

[an50331]

3:40 i love the way he lies on the ground, its comical

[drewk72]

mini van got crashed into by the world "quickest" motorcycle!

[thesecretenterprise]

what part of "it's goes from 0 to 60 is less than a second" don't you understand? hahahahaha the part where you crashed?

[maffiadaan]

That thing is fucking crazy men i love het respect from holland

[beatz143]

T-Cut will bring out that damage.

[86Timewarp]

we need these in Iraq

[Glass232499]

Thank goodness he is using the safe batteries!

[hansen451]

omg i want that rofl dose he know what a brake is?

[JimmyR1rider]

Actually FSXUSER10 If you listened to what he said at 2:11- hes usually the crerw chief- not the driver- which also shows he doesnt ever really do anything but design and build these things or he would have said hes usually not the "rider" This video is yet 1 more reason a government scientist shouldnt be on a motorized 2 wheeled machine. Design em all you want just dont ride it LMFAO!!!

[mrturtlesoup101]

FIRED!!!!

[justinRkeaton]

he said the throttle stuck but he just dumb as hell , let off the fucking throttle, and hate to say but A123 is not the most powerfull battery lipoly is,

[7thSonMattChambers]

He forgot to say "Now, watch this!".

[TheHondaTuner]

i dont get whats so funny here,.. but its kind of stupid to do a burnout with a bike wich does 100kph per second without helmet and one stuf.. i mean only one second( he sure accelerated that fas) and its on 100kpf then he crashed that car and flow away

[mdekq007]

sure looked fast !! x

[youvement]

oh shit ahaha it went from zero to FAIL in less then a second.

[gilessmokey]

i am sure he is very gratefull for gas ambulance

[ralinplinplin]

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahaha­hahaha!!!!!!!

F A I L ! !

[hough16]

EPIC FAILL!!

[Henzzman]

Its so funny,how the owner was bragging about his bike and when attempting to do a burnout,he managed to wreck it also as quickly,as the bike does 0-60.

[bfmv580]

He was over exited about the bike and all the attention it was getting, a bike that fast should be on a track and only a track! Not a sidewalk. I feel bad for him though, sometimes you do something a little silly and it bites you in the ass.

[mcjilted]

He could have compared it to something better than a cordless drill...

[JJ600RR]

yeah, a nail gun, cuz it looks like he shot himself in the head!

[elreyakaking]

wow that thing shot right out of the gate

remember kids always wear a helmet lol

[cabbaze]

stupid man ...stupid ..i would hop on that thing without safety gear... meathead

[lime90621]

First of all, this thing's a beast-- 0-60 in less than a sec.. Second, he chose to ride on a sidewalk, one that gave him less than 50 clear yards in case shit hit the fan.. That's just a recipe for disaster.. Can you just imagine his thoughts during it all?

Vroooooooooooooooommmmmmmmm-- ohshitohshitoh*CRASH*

[DTownzz]

Poor guy. He's worked hard to develop something that is amazing, and somehow he neglects to wear a helmet or the rest of the protective wear and armor he would need.

a vehicle that is this fast needs some extremely good protective equipment. I'm sure this man wasn't stupid, but that was a serious mistake to make.

[BJMr666]

My name is Sol Rosenberg, I fell down and my shoes fell off. I need an ambulance, bad.

[m39bolt]

Person - "It got away from you". Bill - "Actually, it stuck on." WTF? He built the bike, he is the crew chief. Any mechanical failure is his responsibility. Face it Bill, your ego wrote a check your skills couldn't cash.

[bigdamdog1280]

first thing was a novice doing a burnout on a "public sidewalk" "no helmet" "no leathers" and an idiot showing off who should stay on the sideline. An professional rider know better than doing this stupid stunt.

[FSXUSER10]

this guy is just stupid i wouldnt even try to ride and this guy shows off dowing a burn out hert himself i bet you hes going to die riding this i care more about the bike then him does any body agree with me

[usaamerica1]

@FSXUSER10 u r a fucken stupid piece of shit, this is a human, fuck head how can you care more about the bike, accidents happens idiot!

[FSXUSER10]

@usaamerica1 lol thx for the comment btw i made this comment a year ago i was 10 lol

[FSXUSER10]

@usaamerica1 dude calm down i know i was retarded back then i know accidents happen gesh im sorry

[jayoori1]

@FSXUSER10 learn how to spell first you fucking moron

[FSXUSER10]

@jayoori1 lol calm down its utube who gives a crap r u like my teacher stalking me

[jayoori1]

@FSXUSER10 I AM your english teacher stalking you

[FSXUSER10]

@jayoori1 lol whats ur name

[Lucky13Vinnie]

@FSXUSER10 this bike has been around for a while now and it's no more dangerous than any other drag bike

[FSXUSER10]

@Lucky13Vinnie i know i posted that comment when i was like 9 haha

[frog996]

@FSXUSER10 because being 10 years old is sooooo much older.... /sarcasm.

[FSXUSER10]

@frog996 im 11 now about to turn 12 in a few months

[frog996]

@FSXUSER10 So one year ago, you posted a comment. Then you say you were 9 when you posted that comment.

Correct me if I am wrong, but last time I was in school, 9+1 does not equal "about 12".

[FSXUSER10]

@frog996 ok listen tht commet was posten a year and about a half ago and back then i was about to turn 10 so then i turned 10 and then next year later 11 makes sense

[tytig94]

3:00 is when it gets interesting

[marioVV]

high heels at 3:34 !!!!!!!

[johnsshipp]

fail

[nub50wn]

hope the bikes ok, i couldn't give a fuck about him though :)

[DemonOmenIII]

omg. wow. why?

[Psilocybian]

that was retarded, i know someone who died doing the same thing, why anyone would ever rev a bike without a helmet I'll never know.

[TheDawgDEANO]

damn he shud of died

[KGBagent101]

wow for a while there know one was doing any thing they where just standing over him wondering if he would ever wake up... (der!)

[KRipWalKer3000]

safer than anything out there? im not sure .....

[MrSleeps]

what did he say he had 30 to 40 grand in it, i'm guessing that cost about 10 to 20 grand so now he's up to 40 to 50 grand, if i was you next time i would put it up against the curb.

[phillipislbj]

dont forget the hospital bills.

[eXcommunicate1979]

In America another 20-30 grand.

[KevinLounsberry]

I want that thing =D what's it called?

[poliamide]

Bill Dube is OK thank god.. what a stupid thing to do!!!

[martinsnitram]

helmet?!

[griftereck]

he should have nosed the wheel against the flower bed things to stop it moving

[sinblesser]

he did say it was a fking fast bike, he just proved it lol

[bigiss1111]

lol fuck tard

[color57]

if u think this is funny yor a piece of shit

[socal1000]

he wasent lie'n about the speed to bad he did'nt talk about how good the breaks were

[mufflerbearin]

well that burout went to hell in a hand basket,

[Alexdelannee]

haha, reminds me of the first "pilots" trying to fly... flapping their wings with no experience over a canyon.

Hope he's back on the sadle and reinventing one with auto-pilot and parachuting mechanism

[mrscience]

Dube wasnt seriously hurt, and damage to the bike was limited to a bent front rim, forks, cowling and some battery cell damage.

[henrymarkstewart10]

he died

[remoney]

Sorry, but that was funny as hell. But that motorcycle is amazing. It's like a flying saucer on speed and I want one!!

[GraveShifterSkeeter]

wow... one sec hes here, the next hes on the ground. that things crazzzy

[atmosphere4657]

WTF was he thinking....oh well...back to the old drawing board! (After Phisio obviously!)

[gephross100]

he is retarded. might be an awesome scientist and engineer but god damn... he is a fucking tard

[botchalism]

Well between a "tard" that invented a revolutionary electric bike that goes from 0 to 60 in 1 second and some random dude that knows how to ride a bike, I choose the "tard".

[DominicMetal1979]

0-60 in one second, and he wears no helmet, no gloves, no leathers, no knee or elbow pads. Sorry but he's an idiot.

[Ruftkabouter55]

his voice is so gay he aint bill dube hes bill pube

[botchalism]

Did you come up with that yourself? Keep your day job...

[kissmyhho]

hope you are well bill.

i guess that is a lesson to everyone about the awesome power of electric power!

best be recognisin!

[vectraB97]

nice helmet...

[ArmsDealer06]

I find it odd that the people that need helmets the most, don't use them.

[subaruracer107]

thats embarrassing

[bronsonnadeau]

did that stupid fuck die or what

[kissmyhho]

he is not a stupid fuck

drag racing is always a fine line and this type is relatively new...things will be learnt and unlike you i hope he did not die.

[wahkao1990]

He's a scientist! He ain't a stupid fuck!

[Zombifan122]

try explaining that to the insurance company

[thinks2fast]

Yes - "A little interesting" indeed!

[mutez0r]

FAIL.

[On1wheel01]

hahahahaha dumb ass retard ok really fast bike a moron who doesnt know how to ride it just build it and no protection gear wow............

[mods1964]

they call it KILLer cycle for a reason.

[Madcitycycler600]

murdercycle

[tjtube65]

burnouts are so stupid anyway. i mean - why?

[cheapracer]

I see you PLUGGED my comment. I think he crashed because he was so WIRED. I wonder what the CURRENT state of the bike is. Lucky the police didn't CHARGE him.

[tjtube65]

lolol

[atmosphere4657]

C'mon guys. It's not funny....I'm sure he's in the hospital still PLUGGED into a few machines himself ! :)

[mcleaver]

And I thought they even wore helmets on cycles in LA! :-)

[trelex03]

that was a fucking FAST bike ROFL

[HERMAN78X]

That guy is my new hero

[ducati135]

Who took off his shoe? His left shoe is on at 3:43 and then off at 4:13.

[supamanthathoe999]

at 3:43 has he a shoe on..

[Struturinn]

Read, please

[cheapracer]

First I was electrified but then I was just shocked!

[louey91]

You almost won yourself a nomination for a Darwin Award...good1

[NreeKelBastardos]

Fucktard

[jujujuto]

ya think if he is smart enough to build it, he would be smart enough to buy a helmet.

[notveryawesome]

Except... it kind of did.

[Sepero1]

0 to 60 in less than one second???

Shit, I'm surprised it didn't fly out from under him.

[viciousKev]

that thing [was] fast as a mother fucker

[VZSplicer749]

i agree that he is a jackazz

[superzaff]

LMAO!!!!

[jeremywang4614]

is he alive????

[vojkostar]

luckly he survive

[hootinouts]

He should stick with his gov't daytime job and stay off of motorcycles. He's lucky he didn't hurt or kill someone else being a jackass.

[dellguy123]

Well at least the bikes ok guys :)

[mandilovesabel]

forget about this generation of motorcycle wrecks! this is another world of HURT!.......smart ass!

[tilmaen]

they should have built the throttle "the other way around" - just for safety. that way the rider doesn't pull the throttle further when inertia makes you wanna stay behind...

[lectrick]

This is an awful screen scraped video of another video that was playing on a computer. This means BAD quality!

[saintneko]

He got smoked like a dube.

[kens97sto171]

I would not put an inexperienced rider on ANY powerful bike let alone a $40K prototype.. WHAT WAS HE THINKING!! AND WEAR A FRICKEN HELMET!!

Cool bike thou... this technology IS the future. plug in hybrids will be it.. not fuel cell.

[CrowleysGhost]

He went on to do the 1/4-mile in 7.82 seconds @ 168 MPH, which I think is way more important. Wear your helmets, kids.

[DeltaWound]

I still can't figure out how he managed to crash. He certainly had enough time to let off the throttle and brake. :/

[FordPrefect218]

When the bike's accelerating like hell and you're hanging on for your life, your hand will pull the throttle more. Like tilmaen said (above) the throttle design was wrong. Impressive though.

[DeltaWound]

True, but still...

And I had a weird ebike throttle that twisted the opposite way the usual throttles do. Problem with that one was the tendency to open it when you were squeezing the brake. :/

And, yes, impressive bike, impressive failure. :P

[shine1221]

vavoso

[celloboy777]

It's a chopper, baby. Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead

[biglipsjim]

lmfao Hes dead hes dead

[MammaleousMaximus]

Laid out on the hot los angeles asphalt.

[GoTimothy]

It was fast. I can say that.

[TheBiggness19]

LMAO thats the fastest dumbass I've ever seen!

[hawkermustang]

Two things needed training wheels and a helmet.

[invertedleon]

"it got away from me there" LOL

NO SHIT!

[11thhourreprieve]

Hardly the right place to be showing off a bike like this. Privatre land or a drag strip yeah but NOT at what isbasically a public shopping mall. Stupid twat desrved this and is lucky he didn't hurt someone else... damn lucky! Maybe he won't be so far up his own arse from now on!

[superzaff]

This is the funniest accident I had seen in years.The show-of talk before the launch makes it complete!Proudly said:Here's tha KEY.... xD
