I wonder if the rider made it up there as well? Just what the world needs, Thailand's answer to Evel Knievel.

BeamNG drive, TIT version.

 

Going up???

Watch the wires!

I didn't know Thailand had charging stations for electric bikes.

he did not quite qualify for the Darwin award.

 

I knew they had flying pigs... but motorbikes? 

What sort of speed was he doing for that outcome? Great trick though.

It magic and how fo you do it,just like the discovery program

Bill Gates will like that.

This is Thailand.  That is an example of WHAT and WHY driving = death here!  Enjoy your stay in the LOS...pay or get out!

How is that even possible!

What a bizarre photo no low hanging birds nest of tangled wires to be seen????

A high wire event alright! The daily madness on the roads here has it’s consequences. It’s easy to be trite and put laughable comments on here but this is just beyond a joke. The problem is, here it’s not a freak accident, it gets to be normal. 

UFM (unconventional flying motorbike) the new mysterious phenomena

Amazing really, the first puff of wind can bring down most cables but they can hold a 100Kg motorbike. Kudo's to the guys who will get that down.

Hope E.T. was OK.

Everyone seems to have missed the point in the article, the flying motorbike was being transported in the pickup which swerved to miss another motorbike and crashed!

Wonder if they can claim salvage rights ?

Read the link. No-one was driving it. Which almost spoils a good story.
