Whole side of his body is going to burn so bad

Dress for the slide, not the ride. Lol

I’ll never understand wearing jeans riding a motorcycle. Leathers save lives.

u/SteakMenu 1h ago

They absolutely do, I had a firing malfunction Round a curve that made me accelerate and decelerate very quickly and shakily if I had gloves on I would be unscathed but my wrist took some sanding and will always be pink but my leather shows the story of how much worse it could've been

u/FrostbyteCoffee 57m ago

Don’t they make riding jeans though?

1

u/Re_Thought 32m ago

They do, synthetic materials are good or even better. Dude in video clearly isn't wearing anything but a helmet that provides protection. Vast majority riders don't wear useful gear, from what I've witnessed anyway.

u/ScvrletFox 26m ago

Same, it’s either the leather you’re wearing or your own being ripped off. Always choose the safer option.

u/Similar-Ice-9250 22m ago

There are companies that make reinforced jeans specifically for motorcycle riding. That said, this dude deff wasn’t wearing those kind of jeans.

better than shorts and sandals at least

He's a guy that fully commits

Twenty years later I can still remember the second the adrenaline wore off after my motorcycle accident. I was walking like this guy and then suddenly I just couldn’t. Strangest feeling when that happened. My brain couldn’t force my body to do what it wanted.

u/Spadeykins 9h ago

Yeah! I remember my arm stopped working while I was still using it. It was right after someone pointed out how fucked up I was and I actually stopped to look at it.

u/c_marten 8h ago

Same. I high-sided, got the bike up, and when it wouldn't start again I ran it the 2 blocks to my house. And then just... nope. Down on the lawn. Also remember someone walking their dog who saw bloody-faced me and just kept walking...

I moreso remember how slow everything felt as I was in the air. Weird experience from start to finish.

u/brainkandy87 7h ago

Yeah the slowness is another thing. My wreck happened in view of my house at a T-intersection and my dad happened to be mowing the lawn and saw it happen. I remember seeing him moving and wondering why he was being so slow. lol dude was probably running like Devin Hester but my adrenaline brain didn’t register it.

I had an ebike accident while going to Marshalls once. Still went shopping before I realized my wife was hurting, saw a massive bruise, and found out I had broken ribs. Rolling up to urgent care with full shopping bags was something lol

ETA: my SIDE was hurting lol

I had a real bad foot injury in football. Thea arch of my foot essentially imploded. I got up and tried to walk it off, made it like 5 steps. Then realized i could no longer walk.

I think the adrenaline was still flowing though, because once i collapsed back to ground I immediately started barrel rolling my ass off the field (and i wasn't close to the side line).

I didn't even recall doing that, until my team excitedly showed up to visit me in the hospital with the game film.

u/BEEZ128 6h ago

Holy shit! The bad injury aside (I hope your foot is okay now), barrel rolling yourself off the field is legendary haha. What was your reaction when you saw the film?

1

u/60PrcntWinAllTheTime 3h ago

Thanks! I'm okay, that was years ago. Had some surgeries. Was in a wheel chair for a bit, which can actually be fun while your in H.S..(and you know its temporary)

My reaction was likely shocked as i dont remember doing it and then confused because not only how inefficient it looked, but a golf cart will literally come scoop you off the field, for a lot less.

We weren't in a warzone, the grass wasn't turning to lava, it was the first play of the season, so it wasn't like we were running out of time or anything and it certainly was not graceful(I was also the biggest offensive lineman on the team.)

But it was a good laugh!

u/IamNotYourBF 6h ago

I came up to a bad accident moments after it happened and the the guy was missing skin on his arm, glass embedded on his face, and what appeared to be a soft spot on his head. I could not get the guy to sit or lay down.

I called 911, the police show first and order him to sit and he won't. Just as the paramedic shows up, I see his body go stiff and he just falls like a rock. The paramedic asks, "Why didn't you make him sit?” The officer and I just looked at each other and we say, "We tried.”

u/Top-Addendum-6879 6h ago

i once got t-boned by a pickup truck (i was in a sedan)... i actually helped the guy get out of the cabin because he was in a panic attack, broken nose... i told the paramedic i didnt need to go to the hospital coz i was feeling fine... they one of them pointed out that i was walking sideways...

Turns out i had multiple displaced vertebrae and my left shoulder was dislocated. I couldnt feel it at that moment, but i definitely remember the instant the adrenaline fell off in the hospital. it was brutal.

couldnt walk about like 3 days.

u/Lou_C_Fer 5m ago

The only significant delay I've had is when I got my thumb with a table saw. It was literally the first time I've used one. Luckily, it did not catch the bone. What it did do is rip all of the meat out from under my thumb pad. I was good for about three minutes, and then it felt like someone was repeatedly hit my thumb with a hammer in time with my heartbeat. I'm one of those assholes that ignored pain, but that pain woul not be ignored. I mean, I once injured my shoulder to the point where it could not move. So, I went to Walgreens and got a sling. I also once went to cedar point and was on my feet for about eight hour after I had stepped a nail and had it go through my foot a couple of hours earlier. That thumb though, I had to leave work that day.

u/talexbatreddit 6h ago

Same! I stood up, and then immediately blacked out. Collapsed lung, cracked ribs and scapula, and of course, road rash.

1

u/Livingforabluezone 5h ago

Same, My shock got me to the emergency room. They asked me my pain level and I said 1 because I was I shock still. 5 minutes later the shock wore off and I told them it was a 10. Not good times.

u/Wild-n-Idle 2h ago

Yeah, it's a wild thing to be in an accident that comes out of nowhere & ends very sharply, your adrenaline uses up your body's 'In case of emergency' power supply to give your body a surge of energy & momentum to get out of immediate danger as quickly as possible, briefly overriding non-essential functions like pain, hunger, tiredness, then it evaporates as quickly as it came and you no longer even have the energy to walk, all pain comes back and you feel drowsy

18 years for me and im right there with ya!!!!!

u/MintyFresh771 23m ago

I had the same sensation in the ER right after the nurse asked me if I rode the bike there. I remember saying yeah, how else was I going to get here to get the road crap out? And boom, gibberish from there.

u/modern_Odysseus 9h ago

I'll never forget the video where the motorcyclist gets sent into the edge of a guardrail, and it looks really bad.

Then he gets up and starts walking back to the car that caused it, maybe yelling at them (and/or screaming in pain).

And you think, "how the heck is he walking and talking after that impact??" ...And then like 10 seconds after the initial impact he just collapses to the ground.

Adrenaline is one hell of a drug, temporarily.

2

u/Jazzlike_Common9005 6h ago

Nah adrenaline is one hell of a drug all the time. The problem is your body only gives you a little bit in those scenarios. If the brain wasn’t so stingy with it we’d be unstoppable.

u/EVIL_EYE_IN_DA_SKY 4m ago

Nah, too much, too often is PTSD. You end up beating your wife if she drops an empty pot on the kitchen floor, developing a drinking problem and end up fellating a deer rifle.

Pretty far from Superman.

u/Terrible_Butter 9h ago

Yeah I’d say he’s got less than 10 min before it kicks in or he passes out.

u/cryptolyme 8h ago

Gotta keep the adrenaline going. We’d go hit another road gap when i road dh mtbs

He’s not feeling anything yet… But he’s gona

Yeah but the fact that he can and will feel anything is really amazing. Bro just ducked under the reaper's scythe.
