Fascinating! He's got serious riding skills. Some people pay big money to climb Mount Everest. Other's love to sky dive or BASE jump. This guy gets his kicks for free.

But the accident was not my fault I was driving perfect as normal the Thai way but my brakes failed and by a bit of good luck I had on my fast trainers and managed to run away from the scene of the accident.  

He IS a tool - a brain dead tool and soon his body may join his brain! Just hope his probable "inevitability" will not harm others. Sheesh..............

A 1000 Baht fine. would make him think.  Confiscate bike until it is paid.

Perhaps an example of the  "Classic Somchai".......lol

This is obviously a doctored video. What does this guy have, cruise control on his bike? 

 

Maybe, I had one on my Harley back home.  I also saw a guy here riding his bike with his right am and hand in a sling.  Not sure how he was throttling and braking lefty only.

Wearing a helmet to protect his brainless head.

Actually, the helmet is there to stop damage to the pavement!

 

Notice the Thai commentary though...."Gaeng Maak"  as if they think this retard is clever!

You can achieve this with a few elastic bands jammed around the throttle control on the handlebars, yes a cruise control of sorts, but DEADLY!

What a very disappointing video.

Can I please ask why you are posting my wife's photo as your avatar?

I use to do this along with similar stunts back in the late '60's and early '70's on my Harley chopper, but there were no cell phones. 

The joke is on you - it's the newest self driving Tesla....

Some people here were never young and foolish.

What about this one? A guy with two legs in plaster wearing shorts and singlet, no footwear or helmet with his crutches on the back of his bike navigating Soi Buakhao in Pattaya at the height of midday.

I don't know about modern bikes but my old Triumph had a throttle adjusting screw to stop the engine slowing down when giving hand signals. Way before flashing indicators came on the scene. 

I don't know where you're from but in Canada we use our right hand on the throttle and signal with the left. And making a throttle stick is easy if you want to do it.

Reminds me of the saying when I was a kid riding a push bike:

"Look mum, no hands, look mum no feet, look mum no teeth"

Nowt wrong with that whatsoever. Jeez, kid's just having some fun and practicing balance skills. Any of you lot actually enjoy your youth?

Indicating with your left hand? Even when turning right? How do you do that?

arm straight out indicates left turn and arm bent at elbow with hand pointed skyward indicates right turn

'... we at Thaivisa just prefer to refer to him as hardly the sharpest tool in the shed.'

In a shed filled with blunt instruments, he does stand out - just.

Booyah to the education system that has reared parents and their kids... Some just never got to the subject of "dont be an idiot"

What's wrong with you people he had a good crash helmet on!!

The same saying that applies to pilots applies here. " There are old scooter riders

and there are bold scooter riders, but there are no old, bold scooter riders"

He will not live long if he continues to operate a scooter with to regard to

safe riding practices.  

The word Cretin comes to mind, but that covers most Thai drivers.

He is no more or less a "tool" than adrenalin junkies the world over, getting their highs from partaking in dangerous activities or stunts. He looks extremely skilled, so the chance of him having an accident are probably not much more than the average Joe holding on with both hands. More than likely this was choreographed and posted online especially to get a rise out of people like you. If so - job well done!

hold my beer...

 

Takes riding and texting to a whole new level,  brainpower may be lacking but the riding skill is certainly evident.

Bounce a basketball in front of him just to see what happens....!
