just in case you win the lottery and want something quicker to 60 m.p.h than your gtr, then look no further! one of the 10 cars in the clip is the bugatti veyron and dose a astonishing 0 to 60 in 2.2 seconds :o that's 0.3 of a second quicker than my zzr1400 and 0.7 of a second faster than the hayabusa ;D :) 0ops! here we go again ;) ;D

Lol, thats a very funny clip but unfortunately one person on here recently was offended by it because they throught the camera man was insensitive to the riders feelings and predicament.  ::)

However everyone else thought it was bloody hilarious.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Geoff, 100milesaway has suggested one, he's 63 ya know and didnt know how to put a You Tube link on, bless him, but here it is and its a good one. Now't to do with biking but if you can watch it at 720 HD and on full screen. Its awesome.  :o

As someone who is a little wary of heights that clip is downright scary and almost unwatchable in parts - I'm still shaking in my boots  :o

I am someone who is not a 'little wary'of heights - but someone who craps himself when faced with heights!!!
That clip is amazing quality and (as previously said) almost unwatchable!
Two things that occur to me. 1) What an amazing thing thing be able (and want to) do.
2) How on earth was the path built in the first place?

This incredible walk way was built many decades ago to gain access to and for the repair of a large dam just north of Malaga in Spain, it is known locally as the Kings little pathway ,it was built over a number of years complete with substantial handrails and was even accessable to the more soft adventurer, i believe it was officially opened when the King of Spain was showing off this pathway at the El Chorro gorge. Over the years it has suffered from many rockfalls and taken a real battering and was even closed at one stage due to trippers not really being aware of the dangers, resulting in quite afew deaths by ill equipped tourists. It is now mainly used as an easier pathway for climbers to gain access to the more recognised but inexaccessable climbing areas. I think last year there was some talk of re-establishing its former glory but this is subject to finding funding.

I thought the opposite to luck!  Total lack of forward obs and still doing 30 when he got between the cars, and the guy who came off.....  just blame someone else with no self reflection.

I dont think either of them noticed the road was coming down to one lane.

I only started look at mad sunday vids as im going to the IoM in may, but the week before practice to avoice the nutters!

What a bunch of imbeciles!
I felt sick to the stomach watching the first part.
Those are the kind of guys that give bikers a bad name.
Idiots who drive that recklessly should be banned for life.
A shame the guy with the camera didn't crash as well and the other moron obviously didn't get hurt enough.
Even though I would feel for the people in the car he so closely missed.

Post by: patrick on January 14, 2012, 04:51:13 PM
No , the speeds were not and the road was one way, but consdieration for others was nil!
