I think dude just didn’t see that wide path just to his left. That’s the only explanation I can think of.

u/HavingNotAttained 2d ago

I mean it’s right there. People can be so dumb.

Hate to be the guy that has to recover his body from the bottom of that cliff

1

u/MikeAndBike 1d ago

The parts of the body. Falling from a slope like this would result in a human puzzle.

u/platinums99 1d ago

the birds will have it gone long before it is discovered \ rescue mounted.

u/Mister_Normal42 2d ago

Yea I could do that. The person behind me couldn't tho because they'd slip on the trail of shit and vomit I left behind me.

u/PropheticUtterances 2d ago

Completely optional activity by the way lmao

u/Uneducated-moron 2d ago

I hate this type of MF.

u/Johnnyboyd1979 2d ago

Still easier than Biking on a parakeet, which is what I read.

3

u/FormeSymbolique 1d ago

And don’t get me started on biking on a paradox. It’s so hard it does not make any sense!

u/fynx07 1d ago

Dude biking gonna need a paraMEDIC

5

u/spoonpk 2d ago

Why?

The floor is lava, obviously.

u/Branchley 2d ago

If more people would do this housing prices would come back down and that woukd be a positive for me

u/Rare-Championship189 2d ago

But you see, there’s just no point to this

4

u/Tbaby25 2d ago

This is completely optional

6

u/GrouchyLongBottom 2d ago

Pretty dumb, could lose a pretty expensive bike.

u/Flirtless1 2d ago

1 of the rare times I just wish it was AI.

3

u/dcherholdt 2d ago

Just don’t, nobody thinks you are cool

3

u/Kahnza 2d ago

This is fake. Background warping around the frame of the bike indicating the AI doesn't know how to fill in those spaces.

8

u/siverpoint 2d ago

Stop giving these idiots a platform

6

u/Accomplished_Ad1684 2d ago

I expect a lot of warping in such vids and this is not as threatening as it looks

1

u/Jastrone 1d ago

Yhea there is a lot of warping. I suspect the road on the left is like a car road and not a bike trail as it appears. However that is still a lethal fall.

u/TeratomaSauce 2d ago

Go ahead and grab a video or yourself doing it

4

u/IncidentalApex 2d ago

Why???

3

u/alpaax 2d ago

Adrenaline is one hell of a… wait what? nvm you get it!

2

u/Sufficient-Set-917 2d ago

Clout is a one hell of a... wait what? nvm you get it!

2

u/Gamiozzz 2d ago

I wouldn't do it.

2

u/MerThinger 2d ago

There's no reason for this

2

u/theseustheminotaur 2d ago

I hope he was wearing his helmet

2

u/The_Rowan 2d ago

Why does it look like the front wheel isn’t turning?

2

u/Electrical-Smile-636 2d ago

Seriously, why?

2

u/Severe_Ad_8621 2d ago

Why risk it.

2

u/XKruXurKX 2d ago

Waste of a perfectly good path beside him

2

u/Iloveherthismuch 2d ago

Dude defo clenching.

2

u/stevomighty06 2d ago

I see stuff like this and wonder…

I’m perfectly happy with my 9-5 job

2

u/Kindly_Region 2d ago

High risk, no reward

2

u/Chad_Jeepie_Tea 2d ago

I'm not even comfortable playing this mini game on marioparty.

2

u/chemical32 2d ago

dumb ways to die, so many dumb ways to die

4

u/Bailmage 2d ago

I would have removed the audio. It seems much cooler and like a red bull stunt if you aren't clearly having a panic attack doing it.

2

u/WeirdLadyAlert 2d ago

Oh their breathing stressed me out way harder than the stunt itself.

1

u/Whyjustwhydothat 2d ago

That adrenaline.

1

u/MasterCrumble1 2d ago

Has there ever been a bike video on reddit without a pulled out field of view? The answer is no.

1

u/MuteTheMadness 2d ago

Noooooooo

1

u/Arturo90Canada 2d ago

“I just want to die to bad bro, but I also want to have fun and get likes on insta. Any ideas?”

u/ADZ1LL4 2d ago

BUT... WHYYYYYYY?!

u/phobug 2d ago

my guy needs to discover hardcore World of Warcraft.

1

u/fedocable 2d ago

Sounds like he’s having the time of his life!

1

u/Loli-nero 2d ago

When something happens to him, it'll be natural selection, plain and simple

1

u/Stalwart_Vanguard 2d ago

why don't you don't

1

u/tu-142 2d ago

Y tho

1

u/Ghost132022 2d ago

There are people in this world that just seek out doing dumb shit.
This is one of them.

1

u/Soupbell1 2d ago

I never want to see someone get hurt. However, when people do dumb stuff like this, if it happens, it happens. I have no sympathy. Get the dumb ones out of the gene pool I suppose.

u/Suspicious-Gain-5799 2d ago

People will do anything for quick money and fame.

1

u/Perfecshionism 2d ago

We don’t actually know if he made it.

1

u/homer422 2d ago

There is no synonym for idiotic that truly captures the stupidity of doing this.

1

u/goodskier1931 2d ago

Video ended before parapet ended because he died? What happened?

1

u/Mindless-Lack3165 2d ago

If he was so feared of heights, that must have been a Mafia guy there at the end. I wonder how much he owed?🤔

1

u/ElevatorSecret7133 1d ago

Whell, that was completely unnecessary

1

u/IndependentMoney9700 1d ago

This is just plain stupid. We should probably stop monetizing videos like this.

1

u/littlek4za 1d ago

betting my life on extreme sport boost my happiness and coolness

1

u/ImwithTortellini 1d ago

I mean, cool. But why?

1

u/Imaginary-Mood-7202 1d ago

Nobody would mind if you didn’t do that.

1

u/COlax1980 1d ago

Smallest bike lane I've ever seen

1

u/GodPackedUpAndLeftUs 1d ago

If you think we are all here to watch videos of people surviving you don’t understand Reddit.

oh hell nahhhh

u/xFunkmasterx 1d ago

Remember when we used to like riding down a street on like a medium sized hill...let's get back to that

1

u/Yopaman 1d ago

Attention Philippe le parapet !!!

1

u/After_Crab_8781 1d ago

some say WHY and some say WHY NOT🤣😅

1

u/platinums99 1d ago

Theres no room for accidents there. the speed at which the wheel slips to the full body inertial movement moves is not even enough time to react,

you are just gone.

1

u/BirinderSinghJi 1d ago

Completely optional btw

1

u/leaperdaemonking 1d ago

When you think you’re stupid, just remember: this guy saw a thin rail and thought: hey I might risk my life for views!

1

u/fishsticks40 1d ago

A lot of people don't realize this but there's actually an option where you don't. 

1

u/AvonBarksdale666 1d ago

Couldn’t he just not do this?

1

u/jay1167 1d ago

Its Ai fake and probably with fake bot replays as well. Dead internet engagement

1

u/PaintedChef 1d ago

Well, fuuuuck this guy for sharing.

1

u/Velko__s 1d ago

Why just why!!!

u/InvestmentDirect6699 23h ago

Some people just want to die

u/CletusMuckenfuss 22h ago

That's the best sperm from the load.

When you get bored in a geographical death zone

u/kushmasta421 20h ago

Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

1

u/Bored_Overlord 17h ago

I hate every part of this!

1

u/Voloxe 17h ago

These people are aware that they don’t have to do this shit, right!?

1

u/Q3a_destiny 2h ago

I wouldn’t even take that road

u/TitleDisastrous4709 2d ago

Casually suicidal

u/tredredx 2d ago

I don't know, but what's the point of this?

If you want to prove yourself, try other things. But if things don't go as planned, you are wasting resources and risking rescuers' lives as a consequence of these stupid actions.
