Amazing!!! Timing is everything. If you tried to create this scenario using computer animation you couldn't get it any closer. Did you notice once he lands his rear end never touches the ground? One lucky dude.

Also notice that the only person to stop and help is another motorcycle rider?

Not wanting to be a doubting thomas, but there's something kind of funny looking about that video.  I wish we could see it in slow motion.  It seems really odd to me that the damage is so catastophic, and the guy bounces so high, yet the car stops in a matter of a few feet.  Sure the car may have been braking before it enters the view, but it seems to be tracking pretty straight and I can't see any body movement to indicate braking either...  Or am I being cynical?

Happy to go along with the video. Been thrown similar distance by car crossing my path. Got up only a bit slower than this guy but sat back down again once that pain set in. All of that in a few seconds.

What gets me in this vid is the sound. Is that guy wearing a mike?  :-\ The camera is so far away but his voice is so clear.
