    I believe this is real video, but it almost looks like an advertisement for the helmet company.

    Wow: that was some light pole. Reminds me of when I was doing my CPR & my pretend "Patient" had a real script to follow but couldn't talk. Her acting was taken from an incident that happened at the GYMPIE MUSTER. The real woman had been intoxicated, left her tent, and went into bushes to releive her bladder, stood on a funnel web spider, ran off in pain tripping on a tent rope and opening her head on a steel tent peg on another campsite. The real woman survived unlike my pretend patient. LOL.

    That light pole must have been completely rotted off for it to fall like that because the handle bar barely struck it. the rider is also a good candidate for the leather jacket in another thread
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    He didn't jump onto the other racer's bike. The Other racer cut him off, causing him to lose balance. He fell over onto the other racer's bike, losing control of his own.

    The extra couple of seconds made it clearer. Thanks

    Is this...real? Essentially a bicycle race version of a cheater and the aftermath. Wait for it.

    Hmmm. Didn't know bicycle racers have seconds placed along their routes. I can imagine where a few might chose this bridge, a choice location.
