@GUNBUNNY2BG4U Thanks for posting! I always enjoy hearing from my viewers. This candyass libtard is gonna go get on his 600cc motorcycle go really fast and travel the world. How is your life treating you?
Thanks so much for this post! I'm getting my first bike next month and right as soon as I announced it to my friends and co-workers, they sent me a BUNCH of those death videos and tried to scare me out of it. (It kind of worked tbh. >.<;;) But it made me really scared for a while but now I've got my resolve back & still getting my bike next month! :D
@steelhorseclub yup! did pretty badly on the first day of riding cuz I was sleepy and dead terrified. I got most of my gear so far. What do you think? The more expensive the helmet it is, the better? I've heard from a few friends who ride that the price is more for comfort.
@mobydick8tylerdurden The most important thing about a helmet is that it is full face and dot/snell approved. Price doesn't really matter that much. Price usually takes into acount the look and feel of a helmet, not necessarily safety.
Very few of the vids on YouTube actually show death. It'll be some noob who thinks he's being cool by posting a non-fatal crash with the tag line "faces of deat- motorcycle crash fatal OMG!"
some of the comments on here are so stupid. how can watching someone have a bad accident or dying help anyone. i think if you need to get tips of that you need help and shouldnt be riding. its common sense dont do anything that might make you crash. those people having accidents are real people have some emotion. im sure if anyone of you had an accident you wouldnt want people getting tips of it
fucken lame ass misleading title we dont care if u are too much of a pussy to watch things like if u dont want to watch just dont fucken click on it simple as that
@steelhorseclub ight, thx man, im 16, n ya is kinda new, to me, cause i wana get it for my bike, No, not a rocket, but a kicicle, ima geta pocket-rocket perdy sood tho!
shouldn't you be worrying about driving instead of making a video? lol jk great job and I totally agree with the basis of this video being a cycle owner. Keep it up broski
As a rider myself I find the motorcycle death videos to be sobering, they stand as reminders to other riders of the dangers of their poor riding every day.
Having those videos online saves lives. It DOES stop people from being totally stupid.
I have been buying motorcycles and cars for many years, and I can say without reservation, there is not a dealer that does not mess with your vehicle to get more business. EVERY time I have taken either my motorcycle or my car into a dealer for repairs, I leave with new problems that I need to get fixed at the dealer again. LEARN TO FIX YOUR VEHICLES YOURSELF! Peace.
hey man. i understand what you are saying about the videos, but you can also say they're good. people who drive cars need to see them so they can look out for us. its a tough position man. we gotta take the good with the bad
Disturbing...yes....i think they are probably the best way to prevent a holes from riding like idiots. I have a few sport bikes and i have drove a little on the edge before. After seeing some video's a few years back...it was a reality check. There not to scare people, but for us to really understand the consequences
soo many people comment on ninja riders indicating the wrong way... there is only one indicater light that flashes, you need to remember which way you indicated
@bipod11 yeah i agree, lots of narrow country roads in the uk but im just talking about like car vs bike scenarios? all the cars look huge in the us and at like 6.00 in the vid, so many cars at that crossroads would be hard to see the bike because you have to concentrate on so many things? dont you think?
@eoghanhennessy15 yea actually that is true, the cars in the US are huggee in comparison to the UK one of those big american dodge pick ups pulled up in town the other day and i could barley fit down the street ! ha... this might sound wierd but do they even have round about in america because when ever i see american videos its just cross road after cross road ??
@bipod11 dno mate i live in england :P but yeah i think they do have roundabouts? they just call them Roteries or traffic circles but generally very rare like i have never actually seen one and been to america 4 times or something? but apparently they turn them into cross roads as they are "Safer" well just because people are not thought to use em so people go round them the wrong way etc.
ok i can see where he is coming from witht htis video. he didnt make his point until about 6 minutes in but he got to it. videos of riders dying are good and bad. i mean they are good because they show people like me (new rider) what can really happen if you dont have your head on straight and trying to be the cool kid on the block when riding. now at the same time the videos of deaths are horrible because... well because they show someone dying.
I like seeing motorcycle crashes, it puts the fear of god in me. Its just so much fun to twist that throttle, but you need to think of the consequences. When I ride, I have all the gore with me in my mind. I think it helps me. I also like seeing accidents and their causes.
The best advice I was given since getting my bike was, "you know this can can kill you right? You have to drive for the a*holes in front of you, on the side of you, and behind you at all times not just yourself."
people always said to me that even a skilled rider can easily get killed by other drivers and cars..the trick is always keep your focus on surroundings,,i mean, even a cat or a dog can make a very bad accident..then what a man could do?? yep..they can make a whole lot terrible accident..so watch carefully when you drive...otherwise you might get killed next...
and he went head first into the enbankment, Doctors said he died on impact, but brandt said he was still moaning, I'd say the hardest thing in the world is to see the doctors take your best friend off life support.. and you can do nothing but just watch him slip away. deff. always ride careful always wear the safest gear (which he had), don't ride at night espically on back roads, ride slow, always double check your surroundings idiots or human error that is what kills you not the car or bike
ya I can totally see where you are coming from with this video, I lost a good friend a few months ago to a motorcycle crash.. he was on back road cruising with some of my other close friends and at night, the road seem to just curve around this bend.. but it when you're right up on it, it comes to a dead stop.... plus the stop sign was turned in the wrong direction (due to human error or farm equipment) so his lights didn't catch the glare off the sign so he could see it
its allways the riders mistake or someone else, keep to speed limits, wear protective gear and dont be silly, also be very carefull around other drivers and keep within visibility of there mirrors, i like to stay a good distance back from lorries and transite vans, a long enough stopping distance and enough for them to see me in the mirrors
i totally agree, iv just started riding a 125 cc scooter, i know it will maybe do 60 tops, but iv seen some nasty accidents at half that speed, and just this morning i was nearly shunted from the road by some ass hole breaking the speed limit and overtaking me on a sharp bend, i ended up sliding on wet leaves at the side of the road and i was relay lucky not to crash, some assholes on the road dont have brains,
EXACTLY!! Scare yourself straight, Im purchasing my first sportbike nxt summer after riding dirtbikes for years and I know I can do stupid reckless riding but need to know the results of stupidity
I think there should be posts with motorcycle accidents. It makes you realize what might happen to you, and try to be more careful. Especially videos with bad accidents where the biker manages to get up because of his gear. That urges you to always wear your helmet and jacket.
My main vehicle from 16 to 41 was a Motorcycle (apart from bans and cycling) I have personally known five young people to be killed on bikes. I personally never wanted to give them up but I would never encourage anyone to ride... death is common so lets not pretend ....
Motorcycles don't crash by themselves, dumb fucking people who don't know who to ride and buy a 600 or liter bikes and do dumb shit on the streets and w/o gear crash bikes. Learn to ride, wear gear, and keep the speeding and racing ON THE TRACK. IMO no one under 300lbs should be riding a liter bike on the streets.
It's the same idea as showing "red asphalt" to teenagers prior to getting their license, it puts the risk in perspective. We are a largely visual society and just reading text or even hearing "Motorcycles are dangerous!" Doesn't really have the same impact as seeing video or pictures of a crash aftermath. I have an example: I had a friend I was teaching to ride. Of course I was teaching him (in my opinion) very sensible and safe information, including how dangerous...
I agree with the not posting videos of motorcycle deaths. Like you said in your video, riders don't need that on their minds, neither do those that are just starting out.
Those sort of videos should be reserved for people who show little or no regard to the roads and go at break neck speeds and do wheelies down the highway, the ones that are trying to kill themselves with stupidity. A person who is just starting out really needs their mind focused on positive things, such as riding sensibly.
And thanx 4 saying these things. People should know what to expect when riding a motorcycle. It's not our fault that people driving cars aren't taught to look out for bikers until it's too late! They should be taught that in THEIR driving classes. I mean, we have to learn to watch out for them, but they should be taught to watch out for us! The only vid that I think is necessary is one like vanflyheights.
Yeah well(to pcxmac11) maybe it is important to see those things, but you guys make it seem like motorcycles are the Devil! And it makes me so mad! Yeah, motorcycles are dangerous. But so are cars that don't watch for motorcycles and pull out in front of them! We don't have magical breaks! It REALLY pisses me off! If it wasn't for the idiots that don't wear their gear that ride motorcycles we wouldn't have this negative image!
i agree with most of what you said, except the ridin in shorts thing, lol in southern california in the summer... theres no way im wearin pants, plus worst case scenario... its just skin, it'll grow back =]
who hates it when you pass a horse rider really wide and slow and dipping the cluch to reduce noise and they dont thank you for it? that really gets to me. next time i might rev the hell out my bike but then thats not the horses fault. i wish i could though.
msf is boring and common sense, in some states (CA) you are required to take the course if you are under 21, but if you can get the license without it, i suggest it, honestly, use your head, keep an eye out for EVERYTHING around you, and prepare for people to pull out in front of you at all times (because EVERYONE WILL!)
there, i just saved you 10 hours and 250 bucks... lol
I strongly disagree. I think that EVERY beginner rider should take these classes. I bet you've never even been to one. Disgusting. Because it's people like you that think they know everything and end up getting into an accident. Then you end up on the news for people like pcxmac11 can go and put their 2 sense in about how motorcycles are the work of Satan! Get your facts straight, thanks!
thats one thing you could take in mind, if your bike is loud there are more chances for them to hear you the see you. Things that make me rage is that car drivers are aloud to talk on the phone when driving, getting a ticket for it isn't enough. They should lose there license because some one can lose there life because of that and most of the time those people are bikers ...
i cyclist turned into me once on a country road, and i hit him at about 15mph, the 1st thing he said was "i couldnt hear u". in all fairness he coulda looked, but still it woulda never happend if my bike wasnt so quite!! (i have a sv650)
I'd recommend unscrewing your detachable shower head and just use the hose for washing the sand out of your vagina. The douche just doesn't seem to be doing the job.
damnit i was saying to myself i knew them roads looked like the ones in louisiana then you said something about monroe lol i grew up in west monroe but i live in minden now by shreveport anyways safe riding to ya!! and about your video the reason a lot of people post them is to make you aware of the dangers and what can happen will and has happend i know them videos have helped me not drive my bike as stupid as i might have with out watching them but we all have opions about diffent stuff thanks
thank god you wearing full face if not poeple going to think you're nuts! you know because you talk 24/7! and stop raising your hand people are going to say you're nuts
YUp, dont forget about those slippery roads, like when ice or dirt covered most of the road..even driving slowly wont guarantee your safety, so why bother driving fast...
I think some people just get their jollies looking at crap like that. There's sites dedicated to snuff videos and pictures. I have a respect for the dead, so I'm strongly against any of that crap. Motorcycles aren't even as dangerous as what the majority of people think, and thus we lose a lot of potential bikers in the process. Also another statistic, is that more than half of motorcycle fatalities are due to intoxication.
lol he lives in Louisiana as do i and i can safely say that we dont have twisties hear. it would take a pretty long trip just to get to those twisties.
Yeah it is rather unpleasant to find out about riders getting hurt or killed. Recently 3 riders died close to where I live, all seperate incidences. It really doesn't take much. I am not against some of those posts/pictures etc. IF USED IN THE RIGHT CONTEXT. I hate bastards that laugh at riders getting seriously hurt or killed. It is no joke, but it should be known to car drivers and riders that riders get hurt and/or killed very easily.
You know, I get a little messed up every time I see photos like that. I don't need to be reminded of what can happen, or how fast it can happen. Atleast that thread had a warning attached to it...some don't. I don't mind them being put up, I don't really like to squelch someone's ability to say "Hey, look at this..." Personally, if I buy the farm and the cameras going, I want it posted. I want people to know exactly what happened, why, and possibly even what was going through my mind.
i agree with you but you cant tell people not to post those videos. its their buisness if you dont like it then dont watch them. not hard to figure out!
ok i have seen the pic on moredeaths forum and wow they are pretty graphic maybe top 2 i have seen. 1 being a middle east guy taking a 50 cal in the head. but anyneee ways sometimes it takes heavy stuff to drive the point home. havnt you herd of the montages on drunk drivers when they scare teens to not drive drunk?
im not going to read the other comments to check for re-posts just gona say this real quick. i also havnt seen that vid by moredeath, but im an gona look for it to see how negative it was...but under the right context i think its good to have a reminder of what can happen. now im a new rider and i appreciate all the reinforcement of the danger of riding. just last night i had a dream that my girlfriend crashed her bike and havnt been able to get it out of my head all day.
I think if it is posted for the right reasons, and is tastfully done, then it should be considered educational (video response). Theres alot of people out there (bikers and cars etc) who dont realise how fragile a rider is, i only started riding 5 months ago, i only truly realised how dangerous it can be because of videos etc of crashes, im a much better, safer rider now, i appreciate my fragility ;-)
I see what yer saying but i have ti disagree. As you have no doubt found out, there are many clueless people out there and what might be common sense to you often is not to someone else. Just look at all the morons on the road and itll prove my point. In other words, some of the clueless need wake up calls like to at least understand what theyre getting into when riding or maybe it will make a random car driver a little more careful around us if they see how easy we can get hurt. Just my 2
Blame ZMagic! haha just kidding. I think we need to understand the reality of riding. Seeing someone die is a harsh reality that we have to be extra careful when riding.
The importance is understanding the danger. If you start feeling invincible... just look up a motorcycle crash on YouTube and you will understand that you are a tiny bug on the road waiting to be smashed. Yea, I dont like seeing it either, but you should just treat it as a reminder.
No problem. Like I said when I posted this: it wasn't supposed to be a joke or funny, but was made to raise awareness. There is way worse at a website I have found and talked about in person but never online. Since you don't like seeing these things, I will not mention it's name. Good video though!

@mobydick8tylerdurden The most important thing about a helmet is that it is full face and dot/snell approved. Price doesn't really matter that much. Price usually takes into acount the look and feel of a helmet, not necessarily safety.

Learn to ride, wear gear, and keep the speeding and racing ON THE TRACK. IMO no one under 300lbs should be riding a liter bike on the streets.

Honestly, I disagree.
It's the same idea as showing "red asphalt" to teenagers prior to getting their license, it puts the risk in perspective. We are a largely visual society and just reading text or even hearing "Motorcycles are dangerous!" Doesn't really have the same impact as seeing video or pictures of a crash aftermath. I have an example: I had a friend I was teaching to ride. Of course I was teaching him (in my opinion) very sensible and safe information, including how dangerous...

I agree with the not posting videos of motorcycle deaths. Like you said in your video, riders don't need that on their minds, neither do those that are just starting out.
Those sort of videos should be reserved for people who show little or no regard to the roads and go at break neck speeds and do wheelies down the highway, the ones that are trying to kill themselves with stupidity. A person who is just starting out really needs their mind focused on positive things, such as riding sensibly.

And thanx 4 saying these things. People should know what to expect when riding a motorcycle. It's not our fault that people driving cars aren't taught to look out for bikers until it's too late! They should be taught that in THEIR driving classes. I mean, we have to learn to watch out for them, but they should be taught to watch out for us! The only vid that I think is necessary is one like vanflyheights.

Yeah well(to pcxmac11) maybe it is important to see those things, but you guys make it seem like motorcycles are the Devil! And it makes me so mad! Yeah, motorcycles are dangerous. But so are cars that don't watch for motorcycles and pull out in front of them! We don't have magical breaks! It REALLY pisses me off! If it wasn't for the idiots that don't wear their gear that ride motorcycles we wouldn't have this negative image!

msf is boring and common sense, in some states (CA) you are required to take the course if you are under 21, but if you can get the license without it, i suggest it, honestly, use your head, keep an eye out for EVERYTHING around you, and prepare for people to pull out in front of you at all times (because EVERYONE WILL!)
there, i just saved you 10 hours and 250 bucks... lol
jerfy2001 2 years ago
Yeah well you save 250 outta the short run but dealer ships give you 10% off some of there products.

I strongly disagree. I think that EVERY beginner rider should take these classes. I bet you've never even been to one. Disgusting. Because it's people like you that think they know everything and end up getting into an accident. Then you end up on the news for people like pcxmac11 can go and put their 2 sense in about how motorcycles are the work of Satan! Get your facts straight, thanks!

do you believe that loud bikes save life's?
thats one thing you could take in mind, if your bike is loud there are more chances for them to hear you the see you. Things that make me rage is that car drivers are aloud to talk on the phone when driving, getting a ticket for it isn't enough. They should lose there license because some one can lose there life because of that and most of the time those people are bikers ...
Rage !!!

I think some people just get their jollies looking at crap like that. There's sites dedicated to snuff videos and pictures. I have a respect for the dead, so I'm strongly against any of that crap. Motorcycles aren't even as dangerous as what the majority of people think, and thus we lose a lot of potential bikers in the process. Also another statistic, is that more than half of motorcycle fatalities are due to intoxication.

Yeah it is rather unpleasant to find out about riders getting hurt or killed. Recently 3 riders died close to where I live, all seperate incidences. It really doesn't take much. I am not against some of those posts/pictures etc. IF USED IN THE RIGHT CONTEXT. I hate bastards that laugh at riders getting seriously hurt or killed. It is no joke, but it should be known to car drivers and riders that riders get hurt and/or killed very easily.
I agree with stidd1... "Where are the TWISTIES??"
IPhantomLordI 3 years ago
You know, I get a little messed up every time I see photos like that. I don't need to be reminded of what can happen, or how fast it can happen. Atleast that thread had a warning attached to it...some don't. I don't mind them being put up, I don't really like to squelch someone's ability to say "Hey, look at this..." Personally, if I buy the farm and the cameras going, I want it posted. I want people to know exactly what happened, why, and possibly even what was going through my mind.

ok i have seen the pic on moredeaths forum and wow they are pretty graphic maybe top 2 i have seen. 1 being a middle east guy taking a 50 cal in the head. but anyneee ways sometimes it takes heavy stuff to drive the point home. havnt you herd of the montages on drunk drivers when they scare teens to not drive drunk?

just stay safe and never assume you know all there is. theres always something else to learn and watchout for
motots250 3 years ago
im not going to read the other comments to check for re-posts just gona say this real quick. i also havnt seen that vid by moredeath, but im an gona look for it to see how negative it was...but under the right context i think its good to have a reminder of what can happen. now im a new rider and i appreciate all the reinforcement of the danger of riding. just last night i had a dream that my girlfriend crashed her bike and havnt been able to get it out of my head all day.
motots250 3 years ago
I think if it is posted for the right reasons, and is tastfully done, then it should be considered educational (video response). Theres alot of people out there (bikers and cars etc) who dont realise how fragile a rider is, i only started riding 5 months ago, i only truly realised how dangerous it can be because of videos etc of crashes, im a much better, safer rider now, i appreciate my fragility ;-)

I see what yer saying but i have ti disagree. As you have no doubt found out, there are many clueless people out there and what might be common sense to you often is not to someone else. Just look at all the morons on the road and itll prove my point. In other words, some of the clueless need wake up calls like to at least understand what theyre getting into when riding or maybe it will make a random car driver a little more careful around us if they see how easy we can get hurt. Just my 2

Blame ZMagic! haha just kidding. I think we need to understand the reality of riding. Seeing someone die is a harsh reality that we have to be extra careful when riding.
The importance is understanding the danger. If you start feeling invincible... just look up a motorcycle crash on YouTube and you will understand that you are a tiny bug on the road waiting to be smashed. Yea, I dont like seeing it either, but you should just treat it as a reminder.

No problem. Like I said when I posted this: it wasn't supposed to be a joke or funny, but was made to raise awareness. There is way worse at a website I have found and talked about in person but never online. Since you don't like seeing these things, I will not mention it's name. Good video though!
