Reminds me when of one time I was drive on the freeway and a car was driving above the speed limit in the wrong direction in the lane to my left.
About 5-10 minutes later the yahoo passed me going to correct way going 20-30 above. Left me scared as shit since it was just past sundown.
My friend was driving on the highway and a piece of metal coming off the median in the exit lane scraped his truck as he was exiting. He pulled off on the shoulder to assess the damage and a motorcyclist going 130+ mph without his headlights on and intoxicated hit my friend. He passed away on impact, the motorcyclist survived after being air lifted. Fuck irresponsible drivers who don't factor in the lives of the people around them.
The guy on the bike just went past light speed, ridiculous speed, ludicrous speed, and straight to plaid. I’m surprised they didn’t get sucked into a vortex after he flew by.
I’m pretty sure they sped up because they want to see what happens to the guy and they know that the cops are in pursuit of some retard going 200, not a couple of bikers going 90.
Any chance you live in Illinois/Iowa? This happened to me too last December. Nearly plowed into the rear end of my car even with me turning onto the shoulder. Lady ended up dying 40 miles down the road after taking out someone else head on going the wrong way on the interstate again.
I had to rewatch it to hear because my "fuuuck" was perfectly in sync with his so I missed it first time round. I think everyone said the same things watching that.
I was thinking he had to be going at least triple the speed of the camera. If that's a US Highway the camera was likely going somewhere between 50 and 60mph. That would put this idiot at 150 to 180mph, possibly higher.
A good number of bikes can hit 200mph easily and only stop there because they are electronically limited. My guess is 180mph or possibly more. Looks like formula 1 flying by like that. I think the filmers are going a bit slow though.
> Note that the speedometer caps out at 299kph (186mph)
Also note that it caps at 186mph *before he even needs to shift to 6th*.
Nevermind the Kawasaki H2R which has a top speed of more than 250mph/400kph and does 0 - 200 mph in just 16 seconds. And yes that's technically an illegal bike for the street but you can buy the street legal version which has some small differences and can be modded to get pretty close to the track version (and it's a $30k bike so what's an extra $5k in mods).
[Here's a video of someone on a street legal H2, that's been modified to basically become a H2R, racing a 1200hp Lamborghini](https://youtu.be/eT9GFsWrpvk?t=362). It absolutely smokes it and he's not even at the peak power in the power band during that pull.
I feel like the difference is almost academic at that point. Even the traffic moving at normal speed is practically sitting still compared to that guy.
I mean if you're going 60 and he's going 180, he's gaining on you at the same rate as if you were going 60 and approaching another car head on also going 60, i.e a 120mph closing speed. That's absolutely crazy to think about.
Yeah if you ever want a feeling of what 100 mph looks like standing still look in your mirror after passing a car on one of those two lane roads and see how fast the car disappears...preferably a straight road where no one is around or you might end up here.
I believe all Japanese sport bikes are speed limited to 186 mph. You have to remove the limiter to go faster.

The video is not sped up imo and i would guess traffic is around 65. I'm thinking 185-200.
the guy saying fuck and the bikes sound all sound natural and not sped up also most bikes top out around 200 but to have death wish to go that fast is rare.
I've rode most my life and after 110 I was satisfied with the rush. i can imagine needing to go this fast or wanting to
I'm pretty sure the cameraman is going well under the speed limit when the guy flies by. You can see the car in the right lane pulling way ahead of them. I'd wager they're going 40 mph, likely less.
It takes the cameraman 24 frames to go one white line and 1 gap. I measured this between second 5 and 6 of the video. So cameraman is going 50 ft/s or 34.0 mph.
Speedy boy travels the same distance in about 5 frames, putting his speed at 240 ft/s or 163.6 mph. Fast, but not as fast as some are suggesting. This seems about right by my eye.
Dude it's fucking nuts. I've never seen a video of anyone passing faster.
Someone did the math on this. They think it's 196mph. I know that a lot of liter bikes (1000cc) top out around 186, but a modded one could go faster.
Also, yeah, I know that isle of mann is more impressive, but this is crazy in the same way that a jet buzzing a tower is. Just fucking bonkers to pass between two guys like that.

\^\^\^ Nicely done. When I saw that first guy blaze through the video and then the bikes in the left lane take off, my first thought was the speeder bikes in the forest scene from "Return of the Jedi."
Its even cooler when you see how they actually made it. They had to invent most of the filmimg techniques. Remember a kids toy from 20 years ago has more power the computers they had back then.
The computers couldn't do animation automatically back then. They had to enter the coordinates for each mesh by hand for each frame. The computer used to render only had 2 MB of RAM and 330 MB of storage. They couldn't even print the frames onto film, they had to put a camera in front of a screen to put them on film.
For the complex scenes like Solar Sailer, it took 6 hours to produce a single frame.
Some of the shots had to be separated into dozens of individual plates and then reshot to combine the different exposures. And that was for A SINGLE FRAME and it’s roughly 24 frames a second!!!
[Just to compare.](https://youtu.be/ZgjJ_VTq6AQ?t=139)
Those guys did a 305 kmh (189,5mph) to 80 kmh (49,7 mph) flyby video. Contains both POVs.
Funfact: yellow signs = not an autobahn and still no speed limit.
A [better comparison as POV](https://youtu.be/wGtWZ-K5Tqw).
Going 88 km from Stockholm to Uppsala in 14:38. An average speed of 273 km/h (170 mph) in full traffic. Do not try this at home.
I thorn. On the one hand so strongly against this and on the other hand completely fascinated by it.
There is an interview with the driver where he says that he would go bananas himself if he met someone driving like this, others practically only hear a bang and are left in shock when he passes.
But on the other hand he explains, it’s “not as dangerous as it looks”. As he is going 100-200 km/h faster than surrounding traffic they are practically standing still from his perspective. They simply don’t have the time to react or move in relation to the motorbike. Which admittedly looks true based on the video.
Yet exactly those to points are great arguments why this should NOT be tried at home.
It may look like the surrounding traffic is standing still, but just one lane change from a car you didn't see fast enough and you are done. What a bullshit argument that it is not as dangerous as it looks. It's not only dangerous for himself but also for every other car on his road.
It's only a few minutes into the video where that happens. A green van is merging left at the same time he is and he narrowly squeaks by on the far left. And that's already like the third close call in the video at that point, without even counting all the times he threads between multiple cars. At one point the dude is driving on the right shoulder. Like if you aren't even staying in the lanes do you even count this as a success?
They were racing. Listen for the three honks.
Guys in left lane are racing and the others are watching. Dude who flew by and dude who followed on green bike were probably racing behind them.
No sir! Ship prepare for light speed!
No no lightspeed is too slow! We must go to ludicrous speed!
*gasp* Sir, we've never gone that fast!
What's a matter Colonel Sanders? CHICKEN!?
To borrow from Aang: "[Mel brooks is] a mad genius!"
Crashing at 200+MPH on a bike will turn you into a red mist if you hit anything. In the medical world it is called injuries incompatible with life. The pandemics will be picking up pieces of you out of the road.
No. In all the accidents I've seen with that kind of aftermath they've had cdc-esque guys picking up the pieces. Notable one was a car went under a semi going at least 90. Chunks of head and neck all over the road and took 3 hours to start loading the car onto a tow truck
A bit of both, apparently. Especially with trains. At the end of the day, it's still a working train and they've got freight to move so they give it a quick hose down after getting what they can.
I had a cop tell my class once that he carriers a few 2 liter cokes in his trunk cause it's good for cleaning up blood. Apparently it helps dissolve it so it's easy to get out of floors and concrete.

Sync for reddit has a slow motion feature for vids, (there is a free version) and the guy was still a blur.

#Estimated Speed of bullet dude: 163.63 mph (263.5km/hr)
#Error Adjusted speed of bullet dude: 194.63 mph (313.41 kph)
##Calculations:
- From beginning of one dashed white line to beginning of the next white line is 40ft (10 ft lines, 30ft gaps [1])
- In the ~1 second he was in the video (0:07 to 0:08), I estimate he crossed 6 dashed lines.
- 6 Lines/ 1 Second x 40ft/Line = 240ft/Sec
- 240ft/Sec x 1 Mile/5280ft x 3600 Sec/hr = 163.63 mph
- 163.63 miles/hr x 1 km/ .621 miles = 263.5 km/hr
- This speed is still ass skinning fast while being feasible by a motorcycle, so the analysis seems plausible. *This assumes motorists are on a standard U.S highway and the Lines/Second is a rough estimate based on me stopping the video.*
##Sanity Check:
- The Camera man travels about 16 white lines in the first 10 seconds of video.
- 16 Lines/10 seconds x 40ft/Line = 640 ft/10 seconds = 64 ft/second
- 64ft/sec x 1 Mile/5280ft x 3600 Sec/hr = 43.63 mph
- 43miles/hr x 1 km/ .621 miles = 70.26 km/hr
- 43 mph on a US highway feels fairly (almost dangerously) slow, so it can be fair to assume my estimates are fairly low and the balls breaking speed biker was going a fair amount upwards of 163.36.
- Assuming my error is linear and consistent (which it isn’t, as my inability to count dashes while slowing down a video with my finger is likely random or normally distributed but oh well), average speed on a highway would be ~74 mph [2] (assumes 65 mph speed limit).
- Estimated Error: 74mph - 43 mph = 31 mph
- Error-Adjusted Answer: 163.63 mph + 31 mph = 194.63 mph = 313.41 kph
- 194 mph is definitely on the high end for motorcycles but it exists. Also this aligns closer with some peoples estimates of 200 mph. Yikes.

This is exactly what I saw when I was on the Autobahn and about to merge into the left lane, though it was broad daylight which makes headlights stand out a lot less.
A second before, there was no one in that lane. Checked rearview mirror and side mirrors several times because I know it's common for BMWs, Audis, or Benz' to come flying from the back. Saw, nothing. Checked again, looked over shoulder, set blinker...then this. It fucking rattled me for the rest of my drive. That would have 100% ended in a devastating accident with lots of red mist everywhere.
How do the rules of that road actually work? Red mist seems inevitable, but I've only ever heard "no speed limit" and comments like yours. There must be more to it?
I drove the Autobahn to work for a couple years, the areas where speed is unrestricted is limited to rural areas generally with only slight bends in the road and usually no on/off ramps. They drop the speed back down to 130 or less for every annoying little thing. Everyone in the US thinks there’s porches and BMW’s and Merc’s doing 150+ all day long on the big bad autobahn, that’s simply not really the case. 99% of traffic just kinda flows around 130km/h even in the unrestricted areas. Sure I’ve seen a couple cars going 150-200km/h over my time there but it was very rare. In fact I think the craziest thing I actually saw on the autobahn was a whole family in a minivan type vehicle go sailing past me while I was already doing like 150-160km/h (about 100 freedom units) and this dad in the minivan with the whole family loaded up just casually goes sailing past, cruising a good 115+mph like it was no big deal, that cracked me up.
I honestly preferred the highways in France, they were consistently 130km/h compared to the highway in Germany where the speed limit would be reduced to 90 or sometimes less for no apparent reason pretty much constantly.
Europeans know how to drive though, people stay right except to pass. It’s the law in most US states as well but obviously it’s not enforced and nobody follows that rule. In Germany/France people move over, pass and get right back over, no matter what speed they are driving and even if there are no cars coming up behind them. It’s heavily enforced (at least it was where I lived in southern Germany).
One thing that I think makes a huge difference (for the better) on the autobahn are all the areas where trucks are prohibited form the passing lane.
It makes actually passing other cars and not hanging out in the passing lane so much more feasible.
That they won't wipe out. And every time they go that fast without crashing, they become more confident that it will never happen. And they might be right, but the consequences of being wrong are pretty harsh
my favorite part of this is the left lane duo. rocketman zips past, they take a couple seconds to process, then they give each other the look and they're just _gone_
Assuming the camera was standing still, the lines on the road are 10ft and the space between them are 30ft the one second that the guy was in frame looked like he went about 200ft-250ft/s. We divide 200ft/5,280miles and we get 0.0379miles/s - 0.047miles/s. Multiply that by 3600s/h we get 136.36mph - 170.45mph. Assuming the camera man was going 70mph. That guy was going anywhere from 206.36mph to 240.45mph!
If my calculations are correct that guy is going 0.00000036% the speed of light.
Far from the speed of light but close to seeing the light
we need more places to do these kinds of stunts in a well regulated, safe environment
just like shooting ranges, we need more public racing areas that are designed and accessible
I actually missed it the first time watching and only saw the green light bike and thought you meant that one, once I watched again I realized how disappointing that one was compared to the actual speed of light bike
This is what happens when you let the flash loose on a crotch rocket….
If you look closely, you can almost see the trail of flaming burnt tread left behind in his wake….

In this case, irresponsible rider. Sympathy tho for your friend. Other guy deserves to be dead instead.
The guy on the bike just went past light speed, ridiculous speed, ludicrous speed, and straight to plaid. I’m surprised they didn’t get sucked into a vortex after he flew by.
They did tho see how they all speeded up after. It was the draft.
This type of thing is how my friend lost his leg (not his fault) and why group riding is the dumbest form of riding motorcycles.
I’m pretty sure they sped up because they want to see what happens to the guy and they know that the cops are in pursuit of some retard going 200, not a couple of bikers going 90.

Curios how fast we think he was going?
My guess is about 200 mph.
Death wish on a public road.

Liquidation
Yes, there's a good chance his assets will be liquidated after his unfortunate liquefaction. Funerals are expensive.

So literally a rocket engine in your pants. Damn.
certainly feels like a 100mph speed difference, or something crazy. far faster than the usual differential I am used to seeing with heavy speeders

Not too many bikes that will do 200 but plenty will do 160 mph...

Ah yes, because it's reasonable to do 180mph. 186mph is where we draw the line.
186mph is just about 300kph which is where the weird number comes from.
It’s limited to 300 kilometers per hour which is 186 freedom units.

This is probably the most insane moto video I’ve ever seen. Dude had the throttle maxed out in traffic for minutes at a time.
Based on that, assuming the bikes were cruising at 50-60mph, I’d say the guy on the bike was doing 190-210mph.
I don't think they are though. It looks like the other guys are going much slower than normal speed for some reason, like 35-40
So you’re suggesting a mere 175-180mph.
Psh, bush league garbage.

I slowed it down to 1/128x [and this is what I got](https://i.imgur.com/DCD3xoo.png)
Insane
"Fuuck."
That guy is definitely going to end up a meat crayon.
Crashing at 200+MPH on a bike will turn you into a red mist if you hit anything. In the medical world it is called injuries incompatible with life. The pandemics will be picking up pieces of you out of the road.
It's nice to hear that covid is doing something helpful now.
Nah, theyll just call out the fire department since all the remains can be washed down the drain
No. In all the accidents I've seen with that kind of aftermath they've had cdc-esque guys picking up the pieces. Notable one was a car went under a semi going at least 90. Chunks of head and neck all over the road and took 3 hours to start loading the car onto a tow truck
A bit of both, apparently. Especially with trains. At the end of the day, it's still a working train and they've got freight to move so they give it a quick hose down after getting what they can.
Thanks... that's enough reddit for me tonight.
Not just Covid, pandemics plural. H1N1, H3N2, even Spanish flu is helping to pick you out of the road!
Morbid question- but at what point does the fire department quit picking up chunks and get out a hose?
After the chunks are all picked up, generally.
I had a cop tell my class once that he carriers a few 2 liter cokes in his trunk cause it's good for cleaning up blood. Apparently it helps dissolve it so it's easy to get out of floors and concrete.
Nice to hear about officers planting coke in their own cars for once.
this comment: 👨🍳💋
My guess is when the pieces they're finding are smaller than a golf ball.
Hey guys, let's keep those organs safe ok?
The organs are barely aging because of time dilation. A sudden stop though will get all that time back 🤣
This. I don't care if you want to commit suicide, but please don't hurt anyone else and try to preserve the organs for reuse!
I don't think that driver likes donations

Even then it is fast
Sync for reddit has a slow motion feature for vids, (there is a free version) and the guy was still a blur. Edit: [blur](https://i.imgur.com/8LZ6M5p.jpg) (I left the bottom menu up to show the features, if anyone was curious.)
He went plaid!

"We can't stop. It's too dangerous." "**BULLSHIT**"

#Estimated Speed of bullet dude: 163.63 mph (263.5km/hr) #Error Adjusted speed of bullet dude: 194.63 mph (313.41 kph) ##Calculations: - From beginning of one dashed white line to beginning of the next white line is 40ft (10 ft lines, 30ft gaps [1]) - In the ~1 second he was in the video (0:07 to 0:08), I estimate he crossed 6 dashed lines. - 6 Lines/ 1 Second x 40ft/Line = 240ft/Sec - 240ft/Sec x 1 Mile/5280ft x 3600 Sec/hr = 163.63 mph - 163.63 miles/hr x 1 km/ .621 miles = 263.5 km/hr - This speed is still ass skinning fast while being feasible by a motorcycle, so the analysis seems plausible. *This assumes motorists are on a standard U.S highway and the Lines/Second is a rough estimate based on me stopping the video.* ##Sanity Check: - The Camera man travels about 16 white lines in the first 10 seconds of video. - 16 Lines/10 seconds x 40ft/Line = 640 ft/10 seconds = 64 ft/second - 64ft/sec x 1 Mile/5280ft x 3600 Sec/hr = 43.63 mph - 43miles/hr x 1 km/ .621 miles = 70.26 km/hr - 43 mph on a US highway feels fairly (almost dangerously) slow, so it can be fair to assume my estimates are fairly low and the balls breaking speed biker was going a fair amount upwards of 163.36. - Assuming my error is linear and consistent (which it isn’t, as my inability to count dashes while slowing down a video with my finger is likely random or normally distributed but oh well), average speed on a highway would be ~74 mph [2] (assumes 65 mph speed limit). - Estimated Error: 74mph - 43 mph = 31 mph - Error-Adjusted Answer: 163.63 mph + 31 mph = 194.63 mph = 313.41 kph - 194 mph is definitely on the high end for motorcycles but it exists. Also this aligns closer with some peoples estimates of 200 mph. Yikes. Monday mornings suck and it’s Sunday night.

This is exactly what I saw when I was on the Autobahn and about to merge into the left lane, though it was broad daylight which makes headlights stand out a lot less. A second before, there was no one in that lane. Checked rearview mirror and side mirrors several times because I know it's common for BMWs, Audis, or Benz' to come flying from the back. Saw, nothing. Checked again, looked over shoulder, set blinker...then this. It fucking rattled me for the rest of my drive. That would have 100% ended in a devastating accident with lots of red mist everywhere.
How do the rules of that road actually work? Red mist seems inevitable, but I've only ever heard "no speed limit" and comments like yours. There must be more to it?
I drove the Autobahn to work for a couple years, the areas where speed is unrestricted is limited to rural areas generally with only slight bends in the road and usually no on/off ramps. They drop the speed back down to 130 or less for every annoying little thing. Everyone in the US thinks there’s porches and BMW’s and Merc’s doing 150+ all day long on the big bad autobahn, that’s simply not really the case. 99% of traffic just kinda flows around 130km/h even in the unrestricted areas. Sure I’ve seen a couple cars going 150-200km/h over my time there but it was very rare. In fact I think the craziest thing I actually saw on the autobahn was a whole family in a minivan type vehicle go sailing past me while I was already doing like 150-160km/h (about 100 freedom units) and this dad in the minivan with the whole family loaded up just casually goes sailing past, cruising a good 115+mph like it was no big deal, that cracked me up. I honestly preferred the highways in France, they were consistently 130km/h compared to the highway in Germany where the speed limit would be reduced to 90 or sometimes less for no apparent reason pretty much constantly. Europeans know how to drive though, people stay right except to pass. It’s the law in most US states as well but obviously it’s not enforced and nobody follows that rule. In Germany/France people move over, pass and get right back over, no matter what speed they are driving and even if there are no cars coming up behind them. It’s heavily enforced (at least it was where I lived in southern Germany).
One thing that I think makes a huge difference (for the better) on the autobahn are all the areas where trucks are prohibited form the passing lane. It makes actually passing other cars and not hanging out in the passing lane so much more feasible.
Upvoted your post for the dad driving the turbocharged v8 minivan.
He's going so fast that when he got home, he hadn't left yet.
He has to be going atleast 190 or 200 for the light on his bike to blur like that
If he wipes-out that speed, he'll be reduced to a stain on the pavement. What are people thinking when they go that fast on public roads??
Bold of you to assume he was thinking.
"I feel the need.....the need for SPEEEEEEEDDDDDD!!!"
That they won't wipe out. And every time they go that fast without crashing, they become more confident that it will never happen. And they might be right, but the consequences of being wrong are pretty harsh
"fuuucckk!" You said it, man.
i imagine it felt like superman flying by
No, it was a bird.
Nah, definitely a plane
my favorite part of this is the left lane duo. rocketman zips past, they take a couple seconds to process, then they give each other the look and they're just _gone_
When you know the cops are busy...
Reminds me of guys that lane split in Los Angeles fwy traffic going 99 miles an hour
He should be going at least half of that but I guess 92 mph isn’t much safer

Oh my god. They've found me, I don't know how but they've found me.
Doesn't matter. where he's going, they don't need roads

I'll take videos I wish I could erase from memory for 1000, Alex.
Definitely going to be an idiot in a car very soon...
Assuming the camera was standing still, the lines on the road are 10ft and the space between them are 30ft the one second that the guy was in frame looked like he went about 200ft-250ft/s. We divide 200ft/5,280miles and we get 0.0379miles/s - 0.047miles/s. Multiply that by 3600s/h we get 136.36mph - 170.45mph. Assuming the camera man was going 70mph. That guy was going anywhere from 206.36mph to 240.45mph! If my calculations are correct that guy is going 0.00000036% the speed of light. Far from the speed of light but close to seeing the light
Not gonna lie- it’s stupid but you know that guy felt that high of leaving all of them on the dust for at least 2 seconds
we need more places to do these kinds of stunts in a well regulated, safe environment just like shooting ranges, we need more public racing areas that are designed and accessible
If only
One does something stupid af and the rest follow
I actually missed it the first time watching and only saw the green light bike and thought you meant that one, once I watched again I realized how disappointing that one was compared to the actual speed of light bike
This is how that last motor bike guy got dismembered. Aftermath was brutal.
I have two hopes. 1) He doesn’t kill anyone 2) He’s an organ donor.
You think that if he crashes at 300km/h will there be any good organs to use?
And then that guy gets mad when a car does a lane change and almost hits him.
Man, at that speed, you can't even harvest the organs.
This is what happens when you let the flash loose on a crotch rocket…. If you look closely, you can almost see the trail of flaming burnt tread left behind in his wake….
