I hope that isn't real, but listen to the bike rev as it's hit.

Yeah the key to a good fraud is for it to be borderline believeable. But what they were proposing is a sophisticated StarWars style defense system, which the DOD is still struggling with. So I vote...fake.  Uh, OCICBW   ???

Hmmm.....an anti-government video maybe?
Aren't the Germans the most regulated bike country?

The one thing that is leading me to "fake" is the reaction of the news chick.  Damn near every female I know, and "talking head newschick types" especially would sit there stunned and shocked.  Perhaps start yelling for help, or maybe break down, but not a ONE would run TO the scene, at least not without a camera.

Most chicks and "newspeople" won't "run towards the sounds of the guns" as it were.  They'll hang back and watch others help.

Funny and cringe-worthy vid, but her reaction is so unbelievable, IMHO.

If the video were real then why didn't the cameraman pan to the left to follow the bike.  I mean the whole point of the "experiment" was to see how the bike would react to the person in the car not looking at it. 

The reason it didn't pan to the left to follow the bike is because it would be much easier to make the crash look convincingly real with cgi when the background is still.

I had to start the video about 10 times before I could concentrate on what it was about.  Damn she's cute.

 Even though it's fake, it sure woke my butt up! Of course there's no damn way I wouldn't look both ways, that is unless Halle Berry happened to be standing there, then I might be wiling to take a hit for a close look at her! Great post!

There are a lot of really good bike articles on the site, just goes to show that bikes and birds do go together. :D :D :D

Mike that posted it didn't notice it either, he said he got the video sent to him as a link.
