ouch!!!!! wonder what would make the fork give up like that. guess too much pressure on the one side. a helment would have made the landing feel better!

Here in Canada, we have to wear helmets but I live really close to a state border that doesn't require helmets. I always think how great it would be on a summer day to cruise with no helmet, then I see this and realize I like my head the shape it is.

Something tells me he felt this one for awhile............damn!

Theres no helmet law in AZ and its amazing how many kids you see doing stunts like that or flying down the freeway with no helmet or any other gear, shorts and tank top etc.  Usually there is a helmet strapped to the back of the bike though.   :duh:   I always wear at least the minimum gear even on the 118 degree days around here.  To each their own I guess.

Rode my 1st 20 years in IL with no helmet(no helmet law)and the next 5 in AZ(also no helmet law)without one,never even owned one in 30 years and bought my 1st with my 1st Busa here in SoCal in '02.Good damn thing,when that car pulled out in front of me(also in '02)and i punched it in the side at 60 mph/flew 90' through the air/landed on my face/spent the next 8 weeks in the hospital i wouldn't have had a face/head left if not for the helmet.Went back to AZ a couple of years ago to visit and tried to cruise around without a helmet,felt so weird i had to put it back on(and these Jap bikes go so goddamn fast you have to wear a helmet anyway just to see). :thumb:

Whats going to happen in a second or two to that about to be educated person isn't funny, but if you filmed enough shots like that I bet some production company would pay you (maybe a lot)
